  1. Wad up a piece of paper, stand up, and try to toss it in a trash can 15 feet away. Describe your first 3 tries.
  2. It's actually kind of a shame, that the best eating bass are 13-14"ers. 🙄
  3. There's a dude around here that does some of the coolest tricks you've ever seen with his cane. And just when you think you've seen it all, he pulls off another one. Opens beers. Catching and THROWING frisbees. Picking flowers. Picks up rocks, tosses them up, and smacks them like a baseball. Dude could probably tie his shoes, using nothing but his cane.
  4. Here we go again. They need to be X-rayed. All of them. 😅
  5. Yep, and staying there pounding away at a group of fish that are not ready to bite, just educates them. Or so it seems.
  6. Almost as annoying as the song that'll be written about him after the honeymoon is over ? 😂
  7. Sure is ! 🤣 Good catch ! Is that Livesay or Cherry ?
  8. Below Norfork dam ! That's one place that comes to mind.
  9. Funny thought...... Just in that short little video clip at 1:am before the collapse, that bridge revenue likely adds up to more $ than all of us put together made today. How does THAT make you feel ? I'm good for a little under 600.00 after expenses. That's for the whole day. Chicken feed ! The next time somebody pisses & moans about their bill, I'm going to remind them that it only amounts to a couple trips across the Scott Key bridge.....So stop your whining!!! 😉
  10. Looks like they've been collecting toll on that SOB since the 1970's A pretty healthy toll at that... But just wait and see if they don't raise the prices of gas and everything else, and then blame it on this. 😡
  11. Holy crap, you're right ! What in the Sam Hell ? And they immediately stated that the bridge was "Completely up to code". 😲 I assumed that it took out the supporting piling.....but it didn't. Hell, a little tremor could have done the same thing. I'm about to develop Bridge phobia here! 😬
  12. I can hear them already 😅 "Yo, Anselmi just called and said to stop filling holes, and go stop traffic". "Why"? "Hell I dunno, that's just what he said ". "Oh phuck him, he can wait until this tar cools down." CRASH !!!!!
  13. The livescope gear-fishers have been sacking them up pretty good for over a month.....and still are. I've been wanting to go flyfishing for a couple messes, but every single day the wind has been blowing like crazy......so I still haven't been. Soon, I hope.
  14. Well I bet she will be decommissioned NOW !
  15. Nobody around here is finding any. 🤷‍♂️
  16. 7 minutes is all the warning they had. Sounds like plenty of time at first....But then you consider that phone calls had to be made....and then guys that were in the middle of doing something else needed to stop immediately and act accordingly. Thankfully it was at 1:00 am, and not during rush hour. 😲 Can you even imagine....! Something like that could easily happen around STL with barge traffic. I'm surprised it hasn't already.
  17. Probably not. But he darn sure wouldn't have succeeded without it. I think your champion would have been Hank Cherry for the 3rd time, had FFS not been a factor. He and Lee Livesay both admitted to never turning it on, and they both finished high.
  18. He was mowing lawns and digging under the seat of his truck for soda money less than a year ago. 33years old or not..... He's a kid ! 😉
  19. No time to discuss this......We have a bridge to rebuild right now ! 😲 And some funerals and wasted cargo to pay for.
  20. People are putting up with it. So....... 🤷‍♂️ As a business owner you just have to roll with the flow. If fuel cost THIS MUCH, and insurance cost THIS MUCH, and groceries cost THIS MUCH....... Then I guess I have to charge THIS MUCH ! Anyone that complains gets reminded what people are gladly paying to watch a football game, or to go to a concert..... or to have a pimple removed.
  21. Yeah well, it's 2024 and the system has changed. Kinda like archery I guess. We aren't seriously shooting for bullseyes anymore...... We're just in the backyard, shooting bare-bows with a cam.....trying to have fun. 👍
  22. Well !!! 🤷‍♂️ I hope we can get You know who back in the You know where....... So we can get to hear more zingers like that. 😅
  23. Oh is that a Travis Kelce ad? I thought it was a Taylor Swift ad.....and kinda liked it. 😘
