Well I’m glad we can entertain you Bredman. But this kind of entertainment will cost ya, so where’s our Bred….man? LOL OOOOHHHH, I kill myself sometimes! Yeah, sometimes you need to jump in there too. I’m sure you have an opinion so lets hear it.

Very good. I see you caught my mother in law joke. I went through a stage where i always had a mother in law joke of some kind to tell. Most were funny, some would have gotten me killed if she would have known what i said. LOL If the truth be told though i have the best in laws you can have. It's my wife who got jiped. LOL

Well that’s too bad because you all seem like good people. But I’ll bet in the end you change your mind and don’t go to hell. No one gets to heaven but through Jesus. God said anyone who tries to get there any other way is the same as a thief and a robber. So if your thinking’ you can sneak in through the window your gonna get shot! LOL I never could understand people who choose to not believe in God. Since you can’t for a fact prove his existence one way or another why not just take the chance that he does. That way if you’re right then you’re in good shape and if he doesn’t exist then you’ll never know it anyway so what do you have to loose? For me it was easy. I guess I have always believed in God even though as a kid I chose not to be bothered with it. Manly because I hated church and all that fake religion they preach to you. These preachers are only in it for the money. Their the ones that teach you the lies that keep you from understanding what this life here is all about. No wonder no one knows the meaning of life. Or why we are here. The first lie I ever learned about the bible was that Adam and Eve ate an apple and let sin into the world. If you can not rightly divide Gods word then you have no business teaching it! Judgment starts at the pull pit and I would hate to be standing in these preachers shoes on judgment day. I bet you think Hell is a lake of fire too huh? Not even close! When you break away from the lies and find out the truth you stop being afraid of death. God said the truth will set you free. Thank God for the thousand year millennium. If not for that you all would perish. Let’s move on but remember God has said to you, FEAR NOT, FOR I WILL HOLD THY HAND! I bet your dad teaches the rapture too doesn’t he? Another lie that’s not even in the bible.

Its ok, I’ve had a rather long and stressful day. I think a little shut eye is in order. See you next time. Good night.

If you or anyone else here thinks the devil is a snake then you have been deceived indeed. Forget for a moment the issue of whether the bible is real or not just like you can forget whether the story of the three little pigs is true or not. If I told you the forth little piggy made his house out of metal you would say hey wait a minute, according to the story book there is no fourth pig or metal house. In like manner even though the bible is a bit more complicated, I’m telling you it doesn’t say the devil was a snake or ate an apple or has two horns and a pitch fork. And nether does his Demon friends. Maybe this Demon as he passed through your house was pissed because he made the stop for nothing. But enough of this. Since its obvious none of you have ever read the book and haven’t a clue as to what I’m talking about. There’s no since in carrying on a conversation by myself, I’ll save it for someone who understands my speech. Go back to telling nonsensical nonsense. I was just kidding with fishingcricket about the demon possession thing but I see that’s not cool because he’s an atheist and he gets offended by the mentioning of God so I will stop. I thought for a secant going off your experience that we were trying to explore real unexplained happenings in our lives. You know the things that happen to you that you don’t tell anyone about. I only wanted to offer another way of maybe what could be happening when we have these experiences but if you want to say it was a bad table leg or a bad burrito you ate then that’s fine with me. After all you were the only one there when it happened and should know.

Oh my word! I bet you believe in God don’t you? You must because only things like that happen to those who believe in God. The devil doesn’t mess with those on there way to hell. Why waste his time, if they willingly send themselves to hell then the devil goes on to look for those who are escaping his grasp. Remember there is as we speak, a spiritual war going on in heaven between God and the devil for the souls of man. Even though they are both physically in heaven they are here as well in the sense that their influence is here. There’s a church on every corner and evil abounds in the hearts of men everywhere. In the bible God asked the Devil what he had been doing and he said back to God that he had been going to and fro through out the earth. How could he do that if he himself is being held in heaven? He’s not traveling to and fro through the earth but his Demons are. Perhaps what you felt and experienced was a Demon passing through your house looking for something. Since he didn’t find it perhaps it is gone. What they look for is just a guess, maybe its weak faith but faith that if left alone might grow and cause you to be saved. If you feel it may still be around take some olive oil and put a dab on your finger. The oil can do nothing, its just oil. But it is the oil of our people and God said to put a dab on your finger and place it above your door. Do it to the front and back door. Just a touch, It has the same effect the blood on the doors had that caused the death angle to pass over the houses when he saw the blood, back when Israel was set free from Egypt. By anointing your forehead and the doors, you demonstrate faith and that’s all God is looking for. Ask God to in the name of Jesus to protect your house and keep evil out. Then God will give you the power and authority to order the evil demon out of your house. I have seen this before with the heavy creaking of the house. Don’t take chances, get rid of it! Wait....you said this happened before the tornado! Spooky. How do we know Demons can't mark your house for distruction to test your faith? Ask neighbors who lost their homes if they had a similar experience. Get that oil if you rebuilt in the same place.

They call me pastor BoB!

Yes some are real, like a can falling off a shelf or a cat jumping on a lid, but there are no ghosts. Demon possession on the other hand is real! After all what would posses a man to stand in freezing water in the winter time and fish for trout! LOL

The Chinese think that all their ancestors are watching them! Boy, talk about pressure, no wonder their so skinny from worry. LOL I know you guys are just funnin’ and don’t really believe in Bigfoot or ghost but I would just like to say a couple of things here for the others who might come along and read this thread. Ghosts have always fascinated me. Look at how much thought, time and energy is devoted to them. You couldn’t have a scary movie without one right? But in the real world are there really ghosts? Being someone who believes in God and the after life I figured if there really was such things as ghost they would be mentioned in the bible, after all Jesus did say, I HAVE FORE TOLD YOU ALL THINGS. What I found out was even more scarier than ghosts. Supposedly ghosts are just ordinary people who died and never left the earth, doomed to wonder around, so they get bored and start spooking people right? Well the bible says that’s not true. See no one truly dies. Sure your flesh body dies and decays but their soul instantly upon dieing returns to heaven to a holding place to await the return of Christ to the earth. Every one who has ever lived and died is there and you will go there too. Note the story of Lazereth and the rich man. It explains what the holding area is like. Remember now I’m not getting religious on you here. Whether you believe in God or not, go to church or not is all on you! I could care less! I’m just saying that I do believe in God and this is what the bible says. So there are no bumps in the night that can’t be explained. But take notice when Jesus walked the earth as a man what things happened! Now according to the king James version of the bible, The Devil and 7,000 bad boy angles are being held in captivity in heaven to be released upon the earth in the end times. These angels are also referred to as Demons. Yeah, and apparently not all of them are locked up in heaven either! Notice in the stories of Christ where people brought other people who were possessed by one or more of these demons to Christ and he had to cast them out. Where did they go? One story said that a man brought his son to Jesus and told him that the Demon who possessed his son would make his son fall down in the fire they had going, (I guess to keep warm or cook with). Another story told about two men who lived in a cemetery that Jesus cast Demons out of and the Demons went into a herd of pigs. Then the pigs all ran off the bluff into the sea and drowned. Another story was when some fake religious leaders tried to cast a Demon out of a man in the name of Apostle Paul and the Demon looked at them and said, Paul I know, but you I know not! Then the Demon whipped the dog snot out of them, stripped their cloths off and made them run off naked. Now I’m not saying there is one on every corner. And I’m not saying they all look and act like Linda Blare on that movie THE EXERCIST but what if…you were to run across one? Would you know what true Demon possession looked like? And what does it take to get possessed by one? Do you have to kill a hundred people? Drink blood? Be a used car salesman like Fishingcricket? LOL What? How much of the bumps in the night are only our imagination and how much is real? Ok, let the jokes begin!

Once when I was a kid we had some sort of caterpillar plague that over took our land by the trillions of billions, I’m not kidding! My dad had to hire a company to come in and spay the land just to try and regain control. They ate the leaves on the trees and every thing else. Acre after Acre, it was the summer that looked like winter.

But how big where they and in what conditions did they find them in?

Eric, what you found was a fungus! One time I went to the Mo. Conservation web site and looked up mushrooms. I read all about morels and stuff like that. I was surprised at how many different kinds of mushrooms there are. Some you can eat! DUH! Some you can’t, some will kill you and even one that glowed in the dark. You might try tracing my foot steps and see if you can find what I read. I paid no attention to it but you might have a little more interest in it. Either that or it was Alien poop! LOL

LOL I’m starting to think your dyslexic! Hey you never did say how it went on your catfish trip?

Yeah, that part where they talked about the thing picking up two 400lb pigs then stepping over the fence and walking away with them started me to thinking! And the hand through the bathroom window had me going to the bathroom well before dark! LOL Years later as an adult I found that movie in a video store and rented it to scare my kids. After watching it I can’t believe it ever scared me. Of course after being traumatized by today’s type films something like The Legend of Boggy creek looks week and cheaply made but back then we didn’t have anything to compare it to. I saw the movie for the first time at the drive inn and believed the monster was real. I looked over my shoulder more than once, alone in the woods as a young teenage, especially after dark. To tell you the truth, I’m disappointed that there is no Bigfoot. And where in the heck is my jet pack? I thought we were supposed to be flying around in the air like the Jetsons by now! I guess they got the future wrong didn’t they. Instead of flying around in the air were all just getting fat and loosing our hair! Well, you guys are, I’m not! LOL

These pups are young if they don’t know what MoMo is! The legend of Boggy Creek scared me so bad I couldn't go in the deep woods for weeks! Little did I know then I would later grow up to marry its daughter! LOL

You all should click on that link that Fishinwrench gave us; it has some “WOW” stuff in it! Did you know that the average fish’s eyes collect 5 times more light than the human eye? Did you know sound travels 5 times fast through water than it travels through air? Did you know the secret to cat fishing, wading, is to never wash your feet, never brush your teeth? Ok well, that last one might be a lie but I practice it none the less! LOL

- - - - - ACRE. I never knew!

The longest river in the United States is the Missouri River. The longest river in Missouri is the Gasconade. The largest lake in Missouri is Lake of the Ozarks. The largest flood control lake in Missouri is Truman. Full, the Truman Reservoir has 1,150 miles of shore line and holds 55,600 Acres of water surface which puts it just slightly ahead and bigger than the 55,000 Acre Lake of the Ozarks. What else would be interesting to know?

Yo Daddy, Can I call you Daddy? LOL I started out as the glass man for Ulrich Marina then worked for Buddy Baxter at his shop (Pro Boat Repair) in Highlandville, then started my own business. For the last two years I have been a bum do to two heart attacks I’ve had, the first one actually killed me. So don’t ask me to fix your boat. I’d like to get back into it but if I did my name would proceed me and the work load would soon pile up then I’d be dead before I knew it. I don’t miss breathing the fiberglass dust, chemicals, the hard work or the hassle of dealing with people. It’s been a slow road to recovery for me but I’ve been pampered and I expect I’ll be able to whip the old lady soon! LOL In the spring I plan to help my son open up a vinyl car wrapping business and may end up working on boats again too in a sense because vinyl wrapping the bottom or sides of your boat if you’re a tournament fisherman seems to be a growing trend. However I can give you some free advice. There are no short cuts when it comes to doing it right! I can fix anything fiberglass, and I’ve fixed it all! From Bath tubs to electric company truck boom boxes to pole volt sticks for the kids in school, you name it I’ve fixed it! Not to mention I’ve fixed just about every kind of boat they’ve ever made from canoes to bass boats to house boats to luxury this and that. The one common thing in all these boat owners is they want to fix it cheep. But cheep don’t fix your boat. Cheep cost you more money in the long run. Bite the bullet and fix it right! I’m just trying to keep it real. I’m not making a dime here; I’m just telling you the truth. You do what ever you want with it. You’re going to have to buy a new keel saver sooner or later so do it now. Do not put silicon on your boat! At 40mph the force of the water on the bottom of your boat is 2100lbs per square inch. How long do you think the silicon will last if you put that in? Do not put a keel saver on the bottom of your boat without fixing it first. Unprotected fiberglass rots faster than you think. I’ve seen house boat owners leave there boats in the water for years then wonder why their stringers rot out. Gel coat is just glorified fiberglass resin with a color pigment in it. If left in the water too long water can soak through gel coat. An open wound on the bottom of your boat can soak up water 20 times faster plus water blasting it as you run across the lake will increase the deterioration rate of the exposed fiberglass. Wonder why your bilge pump kicks on all the time? A new keel saver will protect you from the water blast but will do little to stop the water soakage and rot. Most people are not set up to do this kind of work themselves. First you must grind off the old fiberglass and expose the clean fresh fiberglass. This makes the repair area bigger but don’t panic. Then fill the repair area with fiberglass mat and resin. Let harden. Then grind it to shape and slightly below grade. Then use a body filler, most work well, over the repair area and slightly higher than grade. Use 180 grit sand paper and sand to shape. Then mask off your repair area. On the bottom where no one will see your repair you can keep the edge of your masking tape 4-6” away from the edge of the repair. If the repair was higher up or on the top where people are going to see the repair area you would want to double those distances. So lets recap, make a box with your tape around repair area 4-6” away from the edge of your repair. Then use masking paper and put that around your repair area using your masking tape that formed your box around the repair area to tape your paper too. With paper in place take some 320 sand paper and sand the repair area and the box area around your repair. then wipe it down and clean it good with acetone. You can get it at Wal-Mart. Now that was the easy part. Now all you have to do is shoot your gel coat, let it dry, peel the paper off, then dry sand with 180 and blend in you lines, then dry sand with 320, then wet sand, buff and your done! Simple right? Well for me it is. But odds are you will mess it up and end up having to reshoot and do it all over again. Plus you’re not going to have the chemicals it takes to mix the gel coat. Even if you went to the trouble and expense to get those it would take you several tries to get the gel coat to do what you wanted it to do. It takes a lot of practice to mix the gel coat right. It is not easy. It takes time to get good at it. Solid colors like on the bottoms of boats are easier than clear gel coat. After you shoot your metal flake, like on bass boats, then you shoot your clear layer over that. If your not paying attention to the humidity and it reaches 50 - 60% look out, you might end up standing there with a hand held hair dryer so it doesn’t fog up on you while it dries. Humidity can cause your clear gel coat to turn a milky white. If so, it all has to come off and you do it all over again. My advice to you is to do the body work yourself and save yourself a few bucks in hourly shop fees but then take it to a shop and let them tape it off and shoot it. You’ll be glad you did. They’ll even put on your keel savor for you or you can do it your self.

I used to fish for trout all the time as a kid. I honestly can’t remember my first trout. I only caught a couple thousand of um! Maybe that’s a good sign though, maybe there’s still hope for me and I’ll recover and be ok someday. LOL I do however remember my first illegal trout, and my second. As a kid I knew the creek that ran through my home town better than just about anyone. You could see it from our school building. In the eight grade, I had a science teacher who loved to fish. We talked about fishing quit a bit. When I told him of a spot where I caught Goggle eyes he insisted that I must have been mistaken and I was catching something else because by his calculations Goggle eyes couldn’t be there. He only lived about a half mile from me so I asked him if he would like me to show him the spot. He agreed and came to my house that weekend to pick me up. I don’t know who was the kid and who was the teacher that weekend. We had a blast. He couldn’t believe the amount of fish we caught. He started calling me Harold Hensley. (A guy who had a TV fishing show back in the day) I know Wayne will remember him. Heck, as old as old Wayne is, Wayne’s probably his dad! LOL Anyway when he took me home he asked my mom and dad if he could take to Bennet Springs the next weekend and they said sure. I loved Bennet! I thought that’s where all the rich people fished. I had a blast even though we only stayed for a couple of hours. I caught my 5 fish limit and my teacher only caught 3. On the way out he had to go to the bathroom and stopped at a porter potty they had there. It was close to the holding tanks there where you can hand feed the fish. He must have been doing the bakers man special in there, so I walked over to the holding tanks. I couldn’t believe my eyes! I’d never seen that many fish in one place before in my life! I wanted to fish it so bad I couldn’t stand it! Sure I had the sense that it would be wrong to do it but darn the torpedoes I wanted to! So I ran back over to the porter potties and grabbed my pole. I cut the line and ran the fishing line up my pants leg and tied it to my belt loop. I had a fly tied to the other end already that stuck out about two feet from my foot. I ran back over to the holding tank and kicked my leg out making that fly drop in the water.” Blam” a big one hit it and I pulled it out and unhooked it! I kicked the fly in again and “blam” a big one hit it! I pulled it out and ran over to the porter potties with my two fish. The whole thing didn’t take 60 seconds to do! I put both fish on his stringer just barely getting the second one on as he came out. He picked up his stringer and saw the two jiggling fish on there and got a puzzled look on his face. He said where did these fish come from? I said I caught them while you were in the bathroom. He said, you went all the way over to the creek and caught these fish and came back? I said yes. He looked at me and said son your good but you ain’t that good, your lying to me, tell me where you got these fish! Did you steal them from someone? I said heck no I didn’t steal them from anyone; I caught them in the water. He said what water? I pointed to the holding tanks and he flipped out! He said you walked over there with your fishing pole and fished in there? I said heck no, I didn’t use my fishing pole and showed him how I did it. His whole life must have flashed before his eyes because he opened up to me like I was Barbra Walters! LOL He hid behind the porter potty and put his back up to it. He looked off in space and said, oh lord I’m ruined! This will make the paper, I’ll loose my job, and I’ll have to move back to Indiana! My wife will divorce me because I’ll be a disgrace, a criminal, and an out cast! I’ll be laughing stock in the teachers lounge and all because of you! Any minute now we’re going to be arrested and thrown in jail! I think now looking back on it that he was just messing with me but I got scarred! He said, maybe its not too late! Take these back and throw them in, so I did! All the way out of there I was clicking my heels together and saying, there’s no place like home! There’s no place like home! Like in the movie Wizard Of Oz! I didn’t think we were going to get out of there without being arrested! But we did! No road blocks! No conservation Swat Teams! “Nothin”! I was happy! I thought it was time to celebrate but when I looked over at my teacher he was still pissed! He said, don’t you ever pull another stunt like that again! We could have been in big trouble! Don’t you know you can’t fish in a fish hatchery? I could have lost my fishing license, they would have took our fishing poles, took my car, fined us, thrown us in jail! And all over two lousy fish! Then he made me read the rule book and write a 500 word essay on what I learned and why it was wrong to steal fish from the holding tanks! I never did that again! LOL that was 36 years ago but I still remember it as though it was yesterday! Sorry fishinwrench, I didn’t mean to get carried away here and over take you thread with my ramblings! Just wanted to share the story.
