Did you get it?

I don't think he's posted in awhile

Great show

Especially when it's paired up with an upper deck

My PB is a 40" I wonder at what point they stop growing lengthwise and just get fatter.

Probably have a better chance hitting the Lotto than catching one of those

Couple from today

Must be crack. If it was reefer, we'd all be sitting around eating cookie dough and playing video games instead of fishing.

So, with that reasoning, a 2 is actually a 1+1

Wait til you have to explain to an adult walking with their children why you are killing gobies and either feeding the gulls or throwing them in the trash. Most of the kids want to help feed the gulls. The adults, not so much.

I90 has been under construction from Elgin to Rockford(40 miles) since the stimulus bailouts money was distributed, with no end in site.

The roads in IL are under construction to keep crews working. Nothing more, nothing less.

Problem right now is I can't hold much in my left hand for very long, I've lost feeling and dexterity, have lost the reflexes in my triceps, I can't hold it still to do detail work(tried brazing some pipe in the garage and I can't keep the torch or the stick still), and the pain management doc has referred me to a spine surgeon. I haven't given up yet. I almost called you Grape Ape

If he's making 70-80 with OT so it's about the same. What Raider will be loosing is his freedom. I've been a tradesman for 15 years and drove a truck 10 years prior to that. Waking up to the same old grind everyday would put me in a grave. There's a whole world out there to see beyond the cubicle walls. Never have to take work home with me. Don't have a supervisor breathing down my neck. The business won't fold because I take a day off. On the other side of the coin, the physical demands of a maintenance guy are a lot less. Raider may think he's Magilla the Gorilla now but in 20 years.... Cable guy was here today IBEW guy working for AT&T. In a previous life he was a linesman. He told me he had 5 surgeries to pull out his nerves which had gotten embedded in his forearms. He said it was from pulling wire and found out about it while he was 22' in the air hanging on a telephone pole and couldn't feel his arms. He's 60 and is installing cable so he won't lose his retirement bennies. I'm probably finished in my trade. I'd go back in a heartbeat if I could.

AND YET ANOTHER FOOD THREAD. Mods, gonna ask again for a food forum, so we can talk about scrapple and other recipies.

Never smoked bass but for salmon, I soak them in a brown sugar/salt brine for a few hours then rinse and dry them in the fridge overnight, add seasoning and smoke away.

With a screen name of war eagle, I'd figure you'd have a war eagle boat

Less than 3fow on live bait

Deep fried in "Don's Chuckwagon" onion ring batter. I cut it with beer instead of water. It's lighter than Shore Lunch beer batter

Maintenance is boring. A shop I used to work for had a contract with a huge corn processing plant. We had 3 guys on site 40hrs a week Mon-Fri. The plant generated their own electricity with the largest coal fired boilers I've ever seen. My shop maintained the hvac equipment used to cool the electrical rooms, equipment rooms, and computer rooms, no comfort cooling. We sat for 30hrs a week and worked for 10. That might be fine for some, but not my cup o tea.

I've got the first one. There's just a thumbscrew for taking it on and off

Just bustin' your balls

You could also use it to fling pumpkins at the jet skiers
