Jerry Rapp

thanks for reminding me to get all outside chores done by Thursday when the monsoons hit.

my wife works at a bank and was dreading yesterday. Her nightmares came true. 1st of the month, as well as the 3rd of the month(Sunday). All the government checks came out(SS, etc.) On top of that the SS folks got their stimulus checks. They have two drive thrus for all banking needs now since the inside of the bank is closed. She said they were lined up 10 deep all day. The traffic in Arcadia Valley was insane. Campers, boats, trailers full of side by sides, all headed for Black River, Current River or Clearwater. Needless to say, me, the dog and cats all stayed quarantined in the man cave.

but would the remaining 10% be allowed to post political topics?

Trayvon Martin

just thinking of smelling that catfish bait, much less eating/injecting it, makes my stomach do flip flops

well, I got it yesterday.....................my first mosquito bite of the year. Hopefully they don't transmit the Covid 19, 20, 21, etc. I can handle malaria.....

same here

crappie caught in clear water are very pretty

Trump is as genuine as you are ever going to get. He promised to fix the economy(check), drain the swamp(trying like heck), lower taxes(check). The first Bush sort of started the campaign fibbing. "Read my lips, no new taxes".

if Trump said he was a baseball Cardinal fan, there would be no liberals in the fan base. They would probably become cub fans.

it is definitely time to form a covert task force to get to the bottom of everything. It should be headed up by the two Jack's, Ryan and Reacher. Support will come from Mitch Rapp(no relation) and Will Robie/Jessica Reel and the Camel Club. Legal matters will be headed up by John Grisham. In two or three weeks all conspiracy theories will be settled, and a vaccine for Corona and all flues developed. Only the "bad" guys will be micro-chipped so they can be monitored 24/7.

I have been quiet on this thread for several days. It appears very likely that many more people have had this disease than reported. The number of cases of illness in November, December, January and February that weren't confirmed as flu were probably Corona. This would make the death rate % much, much lower, more inline with flu deaths. Time will tell. Also, the number of deaths that will/are occurring because of the economic shutdown will far surpass deaths due to illness. I see political shots are still being fired, mainly by one person, even after Phil asked not to post political stuff. The Governor of New York has turned this into his own elect me campaign. I have been manually tracking the infected/death numbers on 3 different sites since March 13th. The "exponential" explosion never did occur. The number of cases in NYC skew the overall numbers drastically. This city is in the state of the new "star" governor, hmmmm. "Scared people are easily manipulated" has definitely been proven correct. For better or worse, times sure are changing.

ran into him at Truman years ago. I was going down a bank and he was coming the opposite way. We had a pleasant chat and actually just talked about how the fishing was going as we were both getting ready for different events.

is this considered a conspiracy?

huh? $20 crankbaits. $2000 trolling motors. $300 rods. $300 reels. $60,000+ boats. I know, you don't need all that stuff to fish, but.... $1000 total gets you very deep into golf.

some of you guys at least need to pull out a lawn chair and sit in the sun for a while. I have been helping my wife hang planters on the deck. Time for a nap.

thanks for the chuckle!

what a belly!

that a boy! Hopefully you wiped off the seat for her. Now a question for all. When these restrictions, orders, stay at home mandates, are lifted, will you resume life the way it was in January?

interesting. Something the average person probably would never think about. The same will probably apply to next falls big game hunts out west. gulf coast charters, etc. The ramifications of this thing will keep developing as time goes on.

tournament?

100 years ago world war 1 was ending. Automobiles were still a rarity. Fishing lures? Some wooden topwaters? Monofilimant line was 30 years into the future. What do you think those folks would have thought the world would be like in 100 years?

good question. There are many countries that were around in 1918 that don't exist today.
