Yep, some of them even tried to burn the place down.....while the other two were in custody. There was a series of additional investigations immediately afterwards, but they had been given the heads-up that it was coming......so they had time to scrub it, cover the tracks, and avoid any further prosecution. There is/was a homeless shelter, some country band, a preacher and a church involved...... but as far as I know they couldn't aquire enough evidence to get search warrants, or to go any further. The dude that had the snake farm....whose wife poisoned him.....was supposedly involved, but again NOT ENOUGH SOLID EVIDENCE to go further.

I had a girlfriend that was into being bitten.....HARD😯..... She tasted like grapefruit. 🤔

I think enough real estate has already been devoted to storing dead people across this country. Eventually we're gonna run out of acreage, and property values will tank as soon as a cemetery can be seen when you look out the window. If somebody wants to eat a few.... By all means LET THEM ! Turn all these funerals into picnics ! 😅

The cannibals...... Yeah, they busted 2 of them but they were mere transporters, the remainder of the cartel (a whole church full of them) is still at large.

2.72 is a far cry from "bank full". I've done extremely well WADING at 3.20ish.

Carrying out an audit is no problem at all for IRS employees.......But keeping track of their relatives birthdays, and acknowledging that many of them are dead seems to be impossible to grasp. It appears that the best way to leave your kids a fortune is NOT through building wealth and leaving any property, inheritance, insurance policy, ect......that requires the official filing of a death certificate...... The BEST WAY is to die owning NOTHING but a lawnmower and some hand tools. 👍

The IRS is as crooked as a dogs hind leg. 🙄

I was really proud of my elliptical Clousers cast.....until it occurred to me that I was twisting up my flyline 🙄 I still do it, but try to reverse the direction every so often to tame the twist...... Just don't get too close to me when I'm in reverse mode, or you might get hurt ! 😊

The biggest Smallie I've ever caught from the LN was a 16 incher, and that was quite a few years ago. It has a pretty good population of 12-14 inchers though.....and they are plenty of fun, especially of fly gear. The fish in there just don't seem to make it long enough to get big.....and the spotted bass are so ate up with worms that I really don't want to eat them.

From Hugh Hefner's mansion, to crashing in a Ozark hillbilly's tool shed. Talk about BACKSLIDING ! 😔

Oh c'mon now ! She just backslid a little. Have mercy !

For the first 4-5 days after stocking, many of those stockers will stay schooled up like crappie......and you can catch a limit (or more) out of one little spot. After a bit they will break up and spread out into individual holding areas. So basically anytime you are able to catch several from the exact same little current seam it is safe to assume that they were recently stocked.

"Backslid"? I don't see it that way. To accept THAT means that you also assume it was the first time she ever added something unhealthy to someone's food. More than likely it is just the first time that she got CAUGHT doing it. Don't ever act the least bit unpleasant to a waitress!!!! Or to your sister in-law, for that matter..... regardless of how good her potato salad is. 🤔

Yes it does. Pulling up on that piece of linkage is what locks the motor down......So it doesn't tilt-up when going in reverse. Your shift rod has a detent on it, about mid-way......right ? The washer merely rests over the detent. Without it the detent can get jammed (and stuck) in the reverse lock linkage. And that cheesyass throttle shift mechanism doesn't offer enough torque to pop it free 🙄 Crappy Brunswick design, if you ask me. 🥴 This is the kinda stuff that results every time a new engineer is hired on at the plant.

Speaking of good Christian women, and things that didn't work....... https://www.krmsradio.com/versailles-woman-charged-after-attempted-poisonings/?fbclid=IwZXh0bgNhZW0CMTEAAR0XbP59Jo7KspVZi82EDK_7MPYZnXlM7xjXSRci5d0gNWxjLX9uIHU0WBo_aem_T7OI7Pbelmsdn6ykIDaBwA

Those 1974 Johnson 6hp's will never die !

We aren't discussing the angle of Line to Shank.......We are concerned with the angle of force delivered to the point of the hook. 👍 Cool ! Discussion over 😅

Actually it's not. The hook penetrates best when the force applied to it is more parallel to the point & barb. Otherwise it is like hammering a bent nail. But whatever.....it can still work 🤷‍♂️

Mechanically they are great for snelling type connections....... because the result is a slightly more open hook gap. But if you're tying directly to the eye, or even using a loop knot, the physics of hook penetration via tension on the tippet.....theoretically works against you.

Let me know how the experiment with the White T.U.E. ones go. 🤔

That's the thing about fly tying that nobody ever talks about..... Once you get good/proficient at it, and have aquired a stock of materials, it truly isn't all that much fun ! Keeping myself well stocked is about all the fly tying that I'm ever in the mood to do. .

I had to "register" at the post office on my birthday, and was scared to death that I'd get CHOSEN and sent to Iraq🥴 I didn't believe in the reason WHY......and I've been sceptical about the "News" ever since. All the guys in my area that had made it home from Vietnam warned us that the weapons they were given were total pieces of ---- that couldn't be "sighted in", would jam or malfunction all the time, and that the ammo was inconsistent. The only thing that was decent about the gear they had to fight with were the BOOTS.

Yeah that's what he said. I never knew that greyhounds were that mean.....but my buddy, Garry said they were bred specifically for that. They'd run those coyotes down and rip their throat out. A few of the big-wigs from Colgate were even into it. Groups of guys with dog boxes and CB radios were out cruising the roads every evening and weekend. They even had door openers rigged so that they could deploy the hounds without getting out of the truck. 😅

I had a neighbor (now passed) that used to be big into running coyotes with greyhounds out in Ks./Ok/Tx. and that whole "cutting corners" thing was a big issue with the guys that were into that, back in the day. They'd drive the roads and when a coyote was spotted they'd dump the dogs.....and the dogs would run down the coyotes. According to him there was a big supreme court ordeal, years ago, that ruled in their favor making it legal for them to run their dogs around certain lands. Sounds like the same kinda deal 🤷‍♂️

I thought that was already settled years ago by some guys using greyhounds to chase coyotes ?
