Yeah, Kmart and Target who are only second and third because Walmart is in business. I na big part of my childhood my parents had a mom and pop grocery, but had a hard time competing with Safeway and A & P, then they had a problem with the Walmarts, Cosco, World Mart, etc, in other words time marches on and it isn't Walmart at the wheel.

Well I see there won't be any run on baby backs for the smoker. Looks like deep fried okra is safe also.

Yes, click the arrow right of the the phone.

I'll avoid the Walmart jabs, given that opinions are set, right or wrong. I do want to point out that I still have my original SS card and it clearly states "For Social Security purposes - not for identification". The fact that every Tom, Dick and harry wants to use it to identify you is clearly one reason that ID theft is easy. Congress could stop it, but they don't have time for the trivial stuff.

There is most likely a lesson here. I probably shouldn't speculate, but in my many years of hearing about these things they are more often then not someone falling into cold water and unable to extract themselves fast enough. Canoeing or kayaking in cold water can also be fatal if one isn't prepared to be able to reach shore before hypothermia kicks in and shuts down muscles.

Abkeenan do a search for the Hair Rig, it's easy to tie, and a real high hook-up rate for kids or adults.

If that is directed at me, you lost me. If it concerns my comment about using the resource then, as I said, given the fact BPS has a lot of resources I hope they have some useful plans for the quarry. As opposed to dumping them in a landfill as some minor club functions are apparently prone to do. My only gripe about Bass Pro is that they are like a liquor store to an alcoholic, can't stay away.

I would check the generating schedule.

My only concern is that given the fact that BPS is sponsoring it, I would hope they have found a practical use for the quarry.

Exactly. I believe that would depend on the individual members. There are obliviously some on here now who don't want others to have the opportunity to debate like adults, and I'm sure it will lead to shutting the thread down. If one isn't mature enough to avoid judging forum members on every post or feels the need to develop cliques, or play censor, than perhaps the should be more selective on what they read?

The news last night indicated he was from KC, if I heard it right?

I fished the pothole and the eagles nest yesterday, came up empty and didn't see anything caught. I was there from about 12-2 and gave it up. I suspect that if they generated from TR and BS the current created would help.

I don't see the controversy. Tim posted a statement about how the goals of the administration are not a big change, but a redirect of some resources to address changes caused by global warming. I'm a big time skeptic of mans effect on global warming, but not on global warming, it is a fact that can't be ignored. I guess it just down to "Don't look Ethel!"

I ran into that many years ago, but the wear was on the inside. The tire was running tilted out.

I've talked to a couple of people who said it really fell off after the shocking. This is what was said, I don't know.

If I understand you, it sounds like an axle bent at the wheel.

Shrimp, then sow bug,which I think might be more prevalent then scuds

We did have 3 on board. I have a lot of time on the sticks, but it was tough finding a clean line or water to maneuver in up above.

I'm going to go this afternoon, but I'll likely flyfish for whites, or make the motions anyway.

Inflatables have one glaring problem in shallow water, they envelope and grab anything sticking up. They will slide over a smooth surface, but not anything that is uneven. I wouldn't consider a Sevylor because the cost is reflective of the material. Higher priced models, such as NRS, are heavy enough to ward off rough use and hooks. The bottom line is you can float the James and small parts of Swan, but be prepared for doing more than a little wading.

Personally I thought Shorty's was overpriced and over rated. Great atmosphere for Branson tourist, but that was about it.

I've had a drift boat, in OR, and there's no doubt they're fishing machines. I made a trip in the one you had Justin and the only thing was that I thought the level was barely enough, but yet McKee was all but too low? Did I miss something?

They already did, when they built the dams. The spoonbill are no different than the trout, they're raised and stocked. We've had enough experience in marketing wild animals by now that I don't know how you can get pass the history? Passenger pigeons, ducks, deer and turkey here, and the buffalo. Human nature won't allow a person to sell the eggs from one fish, at least not until they know that one fish is documented. Value must be there or they wouldn't be farming them, and Russia wouldn't need them if they hadn't over fished their own stock. If people from CO can afford to come here and setup a buying center, take them back to CO, make caviar and then fly them to Russia, I'm thinking that a suitcase of eggs must be worth every bit of the money claimed.

One of the things that is most irritating is the approach, IMO, to cutting man made emissions. The bulk of it is in expensive commercial endeavors that help the bottom line more than the environment. It is also creating poverty as fast as North Korea can. The biggest is the so called renewable energy, unfortunately it's weather and time dependent and can never stand alone. The best fuel today is NG which is easy to obtain and use. If we were replacing NG plants with nuclear plants we would actually see a gain. It would also make battery operated vehicles feasible because instead of burning coal to power a so called clean car, we would be burning nothing and creating no pollutants to recharge them.

I'm sure it is, but unfortunately if it is twice as good and we now have twice as many people we've gained nothing.
