What do you carry that prints so bad?

We've all been waiting for you to get here! Welcome!

Thankful today for the many men who sacrificed their lives for the cause of freedom. (Especiall since I don't speak German and my wife is a burnette!) Thankful.

I agree 100%!!! I am totally confident that if I had all the same equipment as the pros, they would still crush me!

Great choice! Congratulations, 00 Mod!

"i can point our probably hundreds of examples of these same members whining and moaning about the whole marriage/family stuff." Yea, and us happily married guys could point out hundreds of examples of some young man on this forum acting like a drama queen because of his girl trouble. Fact is, if you have relationships (husband/wife, boyfriend/girlfriend, classmate, co-worker, fellow BR member, etc.) you're going to have problems. And, when problems arise, there will inevitably be whining and moaning. "Why limit yourself to one ****** the rest of your life? You really think your sex drive (or hers for that matter) is going to last for a while? No. she will get sick of you, and you of her." I've been married for 10 years, and my sex life is better today than it was when I was a newly-wed. The kids keep us from getting it on quite as frequently, but the couple of times a week we do get together is great! We've been together so long we actually know what we're doing! You've bought society's lie that single guys get more than married folks. Bull! Truth is, we get it more often, and it's of better quality. While you're out hunting for a drink of water, we just go to the faucet and know what we're getting isn't contaminated! If you don't want to get married, don't. But, if you change your mind, I hope you get to experience the blessings of a good marriage.

If your definition of a good life is having a lot of money, you've got a lot of maturing to do. And, I don't know where you get the idea that once you're married you can't buy anything you want. The brokest people I know are single. They have all the same bills as married people, but with only one income to tackle them with. When my wife and I got married I was able to afford more fishing tackle and a nice bass boat! Now, we've got a couple of kids, and yea, they're expensive (not as much as some people would have you believe), but I also have more fun with them than I ever had standing on the front deck of the bass boat.

You love your girlfriend, but are anticipating getting rid of her when she gets a few wrinkles? Part of me wants to tell you that if that's your definition of love, please don't have kids. The other part of me knows that if you have kids, you'll learn what love really is. And, one of the best ways to love your kids is to love their mama (wrinkles and all).

This experiment is conducted by thousands of anglers every year through the Federation and Opens. And, every year, thousands of weekend warriors try to move up through the ranks the same way the pros have had to (with sub-par equipment). Not many make it. The few who do would excell with or without the best of the best equipment. For those of you who think you could compete, go ahead and sprint up throgh the ranks of BASS, take your winnings and sponsor dollars, buy the high-dollar equipment, and show us how good you are. The oppertunity is there!

I'd be luck (and happy) to cash one check!

Sorry to hear about your grandad. Happy to hear he's in a better place!

That's so funny! We raise meat rabbits, and yesterday evening after Church we were out at the pens feeding them, when my wife saw our youngest daughter (1) about to cram a handful of droppings in her mouth. She'd never done that before, but we realized that they looked a lot like the new cereal mama had brought home this week. No more coco-puffs at our house!

I've got a chocolate lab (duck dog) and mtn. cur (squirrel dog). Both serve their purpose to my pleasing!

My Boss says work 6 days, then take the 7th off. Thank You!

Just suck it up and but the minivan. If you call it a "fun bus" it really isn't that bad.

So, let me get this straight: 1. Glenn has a fishing forum with tens of thousands of members. 2. Tony has poor grammar, condescending remarks, and really wants to wish Glenn "good luck". Seems like Glenn MIGHT be the expert when it comes to fishing forums. But, to be fair, when it comes to wishing folks "good luck", Tony wins hands down.

LM, would you mind posting your PM to Clayton here. I'm not interested in working in the oil industry, just curious. Also, we've got a few welders/pipe fitters in the Church that could use a break like this. Thanks!

Thanks!

I don't know which is sadder, that he used the word "doofusness", or that we all understood exactly what he meant.

If you're interviewing for a position in a boy band, go with the skinny tie. If not, get a real tie.

They craw up your pants leg, under your shirt, and hide in the hair on your head. Pants don't solve the problem, they simply give the ticks a longer route to travel before they get to your flesh.

Terrible news. I enjoyed watching him on a many of Sunday afternoons.

Congratulations! It's good to see members who add helpful content to the site hit signifigant milestones........ I guess it's good to see you hit one too!!!!!!

I ought to get about two, two and a half more years of laying out of these, then it's chicken soup time!

.....to feed a family of four? Just one! I got my oldest daughter (2) a few chickens today, and right before we came inside for the night, one of them laid an egg. We had that thing scrambled and eaten within the hour. Yes, all four of us shared our first egg. I was as proud of that egg as if I'd have laid it myself!
