I like that even better. You don't have to switch from "level" to "CFS". I may switch now. Thx 😊

I've noticed that the cable/servo equipped units are going through cables like crazy. The cables don't like to be operated backwards without tension on the pedal. That may be a "tensioner" issue..... but who would want a foot pedal with no tensioner adjustment? And who the hell is going to back off the tensioner every time they want to initiate spot-lock? Not sure what the FIX is.....but it is something that needs to be fixed.

Our so is like WOW too ! You steal something from here and bygod I'll go out and buy another one. That'll teach ya! 😅

I thought "PROTECTION" was the reason why you carry a gun everywhere you go. My dog will bark or gets anxious if anything moves around here, but if I were to cut him loose he'd just run over and bring you a ball, frisbee, or stick to throw. He is nothing more than an ALERT SYSTEM after hours, and a friendly GREETING SERVICE during business hours. I've always felt that if I was living somewhere and I felt that I needed "protection".....then it was time for me to move somewhere else.

When I was a kid, my neighbors cousin came to visit and he was all into bug collecting. Ya know where you make a board with pins and model all the bugs you can find. Put them in a jar with a cotton ball soaked in some kind of deadly crap.....then label all the different bugs. This kid found bugs right in our two yards that none of us had ever even seen before. And quite a few that I don't think I have ever seen since. He had "Bug Books" as thick as encyclopedias, and there were bugs he caught that couldn't even be identified at that time. Totally alien creatures. Have you ever seen a centipede type thing WITH WINGS? Well bygod I have! (Once, about 50 years ago). If some of those creatures got to the size of a field mouse, or larger......it would be a scary world out there ! Especially for a guy like me that goes into shock at the sight of any spider bigger than a pea. 😅 It's pretty interesting that there are tiny critters out there in YOUR OWN YARD that nobody on earth is even aware of. And I bet the same situation exists in streams, ponds, and ditches.

Those flatland lakes in Kansas produce more 8#+ fish than Lake O does, for some reason. We pretty much top out at 7.5# here. Very rarely does anyone see a 8-10 from LO. Biggest I've ever heard of here was 13# (weighed on sketchy scales) and that one allegedly came from BELOW the dam.

It ain't from fishing. All fishing has brought me the last couple evenings is this....

Ultraviolet Pearl...

Here's what I have to "Thank a Scientist" for today..... My take from day #1 of the Big Bass Bash. 😊 And here's what my wife and daughter have to thank Scientists for today....

☝️

Your SCIENTIST'S are the ones creating all the crap that you claim is ruining all the vegetables. So what are you thanking them for? 🤔 We try to buy most of our veggies from local farm markets, and the Amish. Always tastes just as good or better than anything I can grow in my outboard oil/gear lube tainted soil.

You think that lady was nastier than any bird, possum, fly or bug ? Oh I'm sure that because it was a critter from YOUR YARD then it was a very CLEAN critter. 🙄 That's all in your head. Anything sprayed on produce costs money, and people growing things for profit don't just spray chemicals needlessly....it would cut into their profit. Plus it is approved by the FDA just like your Covid vaccine that you were so anxious to get injected into your body. You're nuttier than a squirrel turd, Ol'man. 😅 Wash the veggies off before you put them in your mouth! Didn't your mama teach you that? 😊

More shady, protected places for them to sit and get fat. Tons upon tons of forage. And much of the lake can't be fished effectively from May until November because it's just too rough.

That's a good way to loose your dog that hopefully you care about. 😒 Might as well get started digging a hole to bury him/her in. These hicks around here that think it's awesome to have an aggressive Pitbull.....need to be smashed in the head with a disc brake rotor.

Does "all season" mean.....from late June until mid-October ? How do you keep lettuce, tomatoes, cucumbers, peppers, and squash fresh for more than a week?

It seems to depend on which direction your package is coming from. Things arriving from the South or West take a direct path to my shop. Things coming from the North or East will bounce all over the country before eventually being dropped here. I can receive an order from California quicker than I can get things from St.Louis.

For the last 6-7 years we have spent more money on growing veggies than we would spend just buying them, so this year the only thing we are "gardening" is the strawberry's that appear to.have lived through the winter. I only see gardening as a worthwhile endeavor if it is lucrative and pays for itself. Paying 2-300 bucks per year, and going through all that hassle for a few bowls/jars of vegetables just doesn't seem very smart. I ain't doing it anymore. I'd rather help someone that's better at it than I am make a living.

I hope when/if they terminate the old data link that it doesn't kill my app that I use. It's pretty handy.

As I understood, he is. I mean he isn't hollering for someone else to scratch them.

It only took me 46 seconds to start hating it. I like the old way better.

Plant some visible brush around your dock, then guys will avoid blasting it with their wake.....so they can fish it on the way out. 🙂👍

If you "Scratch" it more than twice.... you're PLAYING WITH IT.

JB Weld is great for a filler on corroded or damaged surfaces, but it has no tensile strength.

Yep, we actually stood in the backs of our trucks with a hand thrower, and a shotgun, and shot clay pigeons in the highschool parking lot after all the buses had left. Along with the wood-shop teacher and janitor. Try that today and they'd fill the county jail cells. The greatest thing (at the time) about our school though.....The metal-shop teacher sold weed 😅 (only on weekends though).

No kidding! I don't think anybody (dad/grandpa/ect.) ever had to warn me to never pull my balls out while in a briar patch. I just somehow knew not to do it. I'm starting to think that I may be smarter than y'all give me credit for. 🙂
