I don't do drugs or alcohol
my two pennies: most substances, when taken in moderation, are not harmful. when you abuse, bad things happen. i rather have 50 people "high" on the road than one drunk. both should be legal and both should be punishable when driving under the influence. just an opinion...

Sarah Palin's Alaska
i think most conservatives wouldnt touch her with a ten foot pole. politically, that is. i dont understand the physical attraction some have towards this woman. she could have been an extra on "Fargo".

NASA Finds Arsenic Based Life
hey, if they can swap phosphorus for arsenic, whos to say they cant find an alternative to oxygen? apparently you'd need an element very similar to oxygen, not sure if one exists. anybody still in school?

NASA Finds Arsenic Based Life
Well if you consider plants life, the world has known that for awhile. plants do use oxygen, just not as much as they produce...

Sh. Sahara vs. Stradic ???
im not sure about the internals but i think symetre is the best "value". that being said, i now have a bunch of stradic FI 2500s and a CI4 2500 (great reel!). ive seen the stradic FI for $120 shipped online, PM me if interested.

Would it be worthwhile to purchase this broken G Loomis broken rod?
Loomis is still going to get $100 and will still have replace that particular rod. that excuse for the change in the service is a smoke screen, IMO.

Are They Brilliant or NUTS!?
im glad info about govt/coporate misconduct came out. sensitive info that could put lives at risk - not cool. alot of brilliant ideas seem nuts at first. imma go with none of the above on this one.

Would it be worthwhile to purchase this broken G Loomis broken rod?
i dont understand how that is stealing. why does it matter who returns the rod, the buyer or seller? would it be stealing if the seller used the expeditor service and sold it afterwards for $100 more? i would pass on the rod. you can only use expeditor once so if you broke it, you'd be short. im sure there is a work around, however...

G.LOOMIS ? Need Help
buy some of those 10% off gift cards. they will email you a few hrs later with the electronic giftcards. when you rcv those, go to the TW site and get an additional 20% off with the Black Friday coupon. I believe it ends midday tomorrow. im getting a curado 51 to stare at all winter. edit: the Black Friday discount doesnt show up in the cart for Loomis, Shimano and a few other brands. you have to call to order these.

Do You Drink Energy Drinks?
espresso and coke for me. i cant stand the taste of redbull for some reason. maybe it has to do with my one time experiment with vodka/redbull a few yrs ago.

Strange .....
ive got a cure. buy me a ticket to Mexico and we can burn through that stockpile of old plastic you have. everyone wins. you, me and the monkey.

G.LOOMIS ? Need Help
Ummm, that is a change. From $50 to $100 and only once. After shattering 3 rods in 3 days all of em 904IMX flippin sticks all on hook sets I was done. During a tournament(pro/am) you dont have time to send your rods in for warranty evaluation. its a change to their expeditor service but not the warranty. i used to think of the service as more of an insurance than a warranty against defects... strange, the Black Friday coupon says it excludes GLoomis but when i put a rod in the cart, it applied the discount... http://www.***.com/?coup=TURKEY20 expires 11/30 5pm PDT

True Grit
Jeff Bridges is an excellent actor, but i thought maybe too laid back for a western. not a fan of Mat Damon, his acting just doesnt convince me. when i read the post above saying it is a Coen brothers movie, i decided i have to see it. Appaloosa was a decent modern western. Not great, but entertaining enough.

Now that turkey day is over...
if you guys hate xmas music, youre obviously listening to the wrong artists.

G.LOOMIS ? Need Help
the bcr803 GLX is my favorite rod for 3/8oz jigs. i like the mbr844c for anything over 3/8oz the mbr783c GLX is a great all around rod. ive only fished IMX and GLX so i cannot comment on the GL2 or GL3. make sure you check out the changes made to Loomis' Expeditor service. it has doubled in price and can only be used once per rod. with so many great rod manufacturers offering better replacement services, it's not worth it anymore, in my opinion. if i were you, id look into St. Croix's Legend series or Dobyns. ohya.com has 25% off G-Loomis rods, free shipping logon: customer password: preferred coupon code: holiday25 edit: TW deal below sounds better...

who's still flying?
imagine the amount of TSA employees that would be claiming to be gay to avoid having to feel other dudes up! i dunno, id rather have a straight female checking out my image. never liked physicals with the male doctor too much. maybe they should offer a choice of your inspector. sex and sexual preference

who's still flying?
youre telling me im incorrect? i went to a special room at Dulles Airport customs coming back from Europe in the late 90's. A few yrs ago I was taken behind a "screen" getting onto a natl flight, patted down, shirt lifted and underwear band checked. carry-on luggage completely emptied and searched.
