Easy now. I was hot for Madonna as a teenager. Hairy armpits and all! The fact that it was Farrah Faucet before her, parades my broad scope of twisted turn-ons. Boy oh boy, would Farrah have been pissed if she had caught me bending Madonna over my mom's kitchen table. Whew, that woulda been bad! I'm guessing that Mom wouldn't have stuck up for me either.

This reminds me of the joke about the couple of newlyweds that checked into a resort. The resort owner noticed that the guy spent all day and most of the night out fishing ALONE. So he walks over to the guy and says Hey, shouldn't you be in the cabin with your bride making whoopie? Awe No we can't do that, she has terrible vaginitis. Oh that's a bummer....well there's always other ways, ya know? Naw, can't do that, she's got Pyorrhea and her gums will start bleeding. Good Lord man, may I ask what possessed you to marry this gal? She's got worms too.....and I LOVE to fish.

OMFG! This is too much! The guy most freaked out about it.....is the first one here to get it. 🤣 Quick, pour her 2 shots of Devil's Cut and lite her a Camel. In all seriousness though....YIKES! 😬 Of all people that don't deserve this crap! 😟

What in the Sam Hell ? Objects in the mirror (such as the river) are closer than they appear. 🤭

You'll never hear a health professional say it, but I'm willing to bet that smoking kills some respiratory viruses, and shots of Jim Beam kills some others.

I've got one here you can have if you wanna come get it.

There used to be a wooden boat club up in Wisconsin that would pay me top dollar for those old motors restored, they would even drive down and pick them up. Not sure if they split up or just finally aquired all they could use, but they don't buy them anymore, so I quit messing with them. Typically it cost 4-800 to completely restore them (that's including labor). Refresh the ignition system, plug wires, boots, coil, points & condenser and all. Refresh the fuel system, including the pressure fuel tank, all hoses, and the carb. Refresh the water pump, and reseal the gearcase. Fresh spring and rope on the starter. And usually there'd be missing knobs, and it may need zinc-chromate primer and paint. I was getting 1200-1600 per motor with tank, so it was worthwhile. Not anymore. The cool part though is that, for Evinrude's, the parts are all still available and reasonably priced.

Yeah, I'd love to see what "opportunities" await Whoopie Goldberg in Afghanistan. I'm sure she'd be treated like royalty there.

It's a virus. Viruses die and become GONE. Otherwise we would all have AIDS by now. On a more personal note however, these hicks around here (actually most are KC, STL guys) are not respecting the SD rules at all. I've had to run around boats for the last week to keep them out of my face, and I'm now to the point that the next MFer that hops out of his truck and comes prancing up to me like that is gonna get throat checked or get a breaker bar thrown at his face.

Good point 👍 I approve of that method of moderation. It's a truly good one. Possibly the best ever.

Are you the moderator today? I didn't go there, but I can't just sit back and let this turn into a Trump bash when it obviously isn't his fault.

It all went down in real time. He shared his feelings about it at the time, and he wasn't the only one who felt that way. So a "best" president would have not addressed it openly at all until all the facts were in? The only difference is that you got to see/hear it unfold from the beginning. Your best president would have reacted the same way....you just wouldn't have ever known about it.

What has HE done wrong? What would a "best president in history" have done ?

Not too sure that it matters, but I only carry 2 colors. Green pumpkin, and Pumpkin pepper (basically deep dark green, and/or tannish brown). How you work it is probably more important. I just slowly drag it....we call it "counting the rocks".

Here's a Lake O tip for ya that should be perfect timing. As it warms up to near 60° water temp and the lake is still at winter pool levels the crawdads that burrowed under seawalls and big rocks when the water was up last fall/early winter begin to wake up and will crawl to the edge of the waters new level. Wiggle warts, hula grubs on stand-up heads, or a 3/8 football jig worked from dry ground into the water and down to about 3-4 ft. is a solid pattern. Bass will cruise those rocky banks at a depth that is just out of sight and will pounce on anything that enters the water from the shoreline. If your casts are landing more than a couple inches from the waterline though.... you're screwin' up. My personal fav is a 5" Chomper hula grub on a 5/16 Mitch Fields jighead, or a 1/4oz. mushroom style standup head.

We're on it 👍 I'm thinking Kabobs 😋 Need to find some mushrooms first, we have everything else.

Well, like I have to remind many of my customers......Fishing doesn't require a boat. More than likely you began fishing long before you had a boat to do it from.

The closest thing I have at the moment for an example is this Nissan 90 lower unit. Where the exhaust tube goes is a rubber seal. If that seal is damaged or missing it will cause backpressure in the exhaust and you'll have poor idling and a lousy hole shot. Not sure if your Suzi has an exhaust tube seal, but if it does you might oughta inspect it. Improper carb linkage sync will cause the same running condition. It's important that the throttle plates open and close at the same rate and are all in the exact same position at all times. No sense in making any idle mixture adjustments if the sync is off even slightly.

Your main (big) oil tank has 2 hoses, one has a blue stripe and goes from the main (big) reservoir to the engine mounted gravity feed reservoir. This is your OIL hose. On the starboard side of the powerhead, down low beneath the starter, you have a crankcase pulse fitting (nipple). That is your AIR hose, and it goes from the crankcase nipple to the main oil reservoir. Remove the hose from that fitting and blow 6-8psi of air pressure into the hose while the cap to the engine mounted reservoir is removed. This should force oil from the big tank into the little tank. If it doesn't then you have an air leak somewhere, a pinched/kinked hose, a loose cap, cracked cap, missing cap gasket, or the pickup screen in the bottom of the main reservoir is clogged. Very simple system once you understand it.

I've never desired to partake in international travel, and if the rest of you felt likewise this issue wouldn't have happened. It's everybody with the whole "grass is greener" mindset that just can't be content staying (or vacationing) on the same side of the earth they were born on that brought this on. If you wanna go to China, Japan, Guatamala, Africa, ect. then go....and STAY. Otherwise you're just a mixing stick. Pangea doesn't exist anymore for a reason.

If it's a nasty place then don't go! If questioned why.....tell them the truth. "Your place is disgusting and I don't like being there even when there ISN'T a nationwide pandemic".

Closing ANY OF THEM just makes the others more crowded. Kinda defeats the alleged agenda. Mark Twain and Truman have closed COE ramps, or so I've heard.

Kinda like how they purposely turned "peaceful protests" into NOT PEACEFUL ANYMORE protests ?

Exactly. Did they not foresee that ? 🙄

Pretty much agree. Certain snippets are hilarious, but to set and watch all that attempts to go on in between.....I haven't the patience.
