The question is this. How many people on this planet cannot read and write? Quite a few. But how many have 20 million dollars.............

Earlier in the year, I was informed of how The North Face will be restructuring their sponsorship program. The new program is much more efficient concerning their marketing needs. ("Test" markets and such are nix'd for now) I was wondering if the economy has seen sponsorship programs come under scrutiny or even get wiped out for any of you. I'd also like to point out that if you are truly good at moving product, this could work in reverse for you. GO SELL YOURSELF if you have the "impression" numbers and so on to be an asset to some of these companies who are still willing to go the "sponsorship" route. If you DO get cut, it may not be personal, remember, these are tough times. Handle yourself with respect and that door may open again when things brighten up. A reminder that how you close a contract is just as important as how you open one. You are an ambassador for the sport but more importantly, an ambassador for yourself. Be the guy they remember for the right reasons (This is a tricky topic, can go in 4 different sections from tournament talk to resumes so I'm leaving it here for now, in General)

Just met up with your dad to grab the case of oil for Mike. He said you were doing awesome, not even needing the pain pills. Still that good or was that the local talking??

Wife wouldn't post bail this time....

C'mon,...you know you wanna..... ;D :-X

of..............

A woman on the news was just reporting on the election,....she said,...."will it be a tight race tonight?.....either way, no matter who wins,..history will be made..." Um,.......DUH!!!!! : : I was waiting for George Carlin to come on as the weather guy and say,..."tonight,....darkness" ;D

Good stuff. Shows how a little effort can really change someone elses life.

Still wondering about swimbaits in the fall? Never, I mean never, take it off! 12 months a year Gonna need one that can bounce then,lol But yea,...I get the point, I'm on board like Hendrix was on acid.

Too small, bored in an hour,lol ;D

RIGHT ON !!!

Update- No change. One month tomorrow and I still have the same 5-10 cravings a day that quickly pass. I am learning a new behavioral way of dealing with them also. I notice, a consistent one is when I get in the car. I also know that if I wait 10 secs, it will pass so I make it a point to tune the radio when I crave. By the time I'm done, I've been distracted enough to totally forget about the craving. Now, I get in the car and automatically play with the radio, I bypass the whole crave and now, a few weeks after creating this awareness, it doesn't even exist. I hope the other guys are doing well also. 2 more guys in work have hopped on the band wagon, they know me and were blown away that I could quit. It got them thinking....now they are both in their first week. I'll say it one last time. If you are not suicidal, or borderline, and you smoke. GET CHANTIX!!!! oh, and 2 more things,....my teeth are sooooo white!!! What a difference!! The second benefit is that I've been at the gym and the dojo a ton. I'm eating more (hard to believe, I've always worn a large feedbag) and I'm making sure to turn those new pounds into something positive. Eating healthier also. So far, 9 pounds of new muscle, these fish won't stand a chance. If anyone has questions about being on Chantix, just PM me. I'm not a doctor but I did stay at Holiday in in Guntersville and will be happy to relay my experiences and those of the folks around me who have also tried Chantix. Not everyone has such positive results. Just holler.

Boy are you in for a treat! A great WEEDLESS bait. Sexy as sin as it falls and twitches,...use it for 5 minutes, watch it, and you'll see what it was made to do. There is no wrong way to work this one.

C'mon, that's genius, he's even moving at a decent clip,lol.

FishChris- How to catch 20 fish in 1 hr

Lindbergh baby

Holy Carp!

oops, sorry,...my mistake,...I forgot you only go to this section so you wouldn't know anything about the 16 page sticky in the "general bass fishing" section,lol Yes, the green letters are a link Snapper G? ;D (j/k link above)

beautiful, those fish make for great neighbors!! Welcome back home

I am looking to see who is interested in going to Kentucky for the 4th annual BR roadtrip. anyone thinking of maybe driving? It seems that when it's all said and done, driving (2 ppl) will save about $200. $100 per person, not really worth it, but if we add a 3rd in the truck, well now it might be worth it. Just probing to A. See who is going or is interested B. See if taking the truck might be the better way C. Get this in the front of your minds because you need to start planning now. Don't let this pass you by, you WILL kick yourself. I've been to the 1st two and had to miss last yrs. I came close to seeking therapy eventually. Don't do this to yourself. Start putting $25/week aside and BE THERE!!! So,....who's in?

Thinking of Fork in particular, Mustang Cove. If I lived near there, I could easily see myself fishing that cove (or any of the many others) with my jon. Granted, the lake itself is 27,000 acres but you don't fish them all at once Pick an area and fish it like a 200 acre lake. That's pretty much how we attacked Fork overall.

They learn how to ice fish

Our record in RI is 10.6, came from a 48 acre pond

You want to give him a call, even if he had one yesterday, that color might not be there today. Call, he'll probably hold it if you're on your way.

Not me,...NO WAY
