Daniel My Brother

Welcome from Cape Girardeau.

We fly to California on occasion to visit the wife's family. With 6 of us it gets expensive. A while back I signed up for fair alerts from Travelocity. When there's a good deal on tickets, I get an email. I've yet to pay much more than $200 per ticket. Having flexibility in departure and arrival dates also helps. I personally would not wait 'til the last minute as I might be penalized 6 times over.

A round trip to my favorite lake, and a day of fishing out of my jon boat will still be under $20 per trip. Pretty good value. Budgeting the $20 is much easier than finding the time to actually get out. If I can fish, I will.

It's always the same thing... 1. "I tried this new alcoholic beverage, what do you guys think about it?" 2. "It's okay, I'll stick to my Bud light" 3. "Drinking is stupid and anyone who drinks is an idiot." 4. "WEED! WEED! WEED!" 5. "x2 LETS GET SOME WEED!" 6. "Smoking pot is stupid and illegal." The cycle continues. ;D ;D ;D Nicely put.

Amen!

I love the fact that 4 of the first 24 responses were for Kiss Alive! I honestly don't know if it was my first album, but I know it was the first one that I was really excited to get. Destroyer was another great one.

X 2! The album came with temporary tattoos featuring all of the KISS members. I put the Peter Criss tattoo on my belly. Later I had basketball practice and we scrimmaged shirts vs. skins. When I took off my shirt everyone laughed at me. I had no idea what was so funny, until I looked down and saw Catman.

Move to Florida

The idea that sounds interesting to me is one where they play an 18 week season, but each player is only allowed to play in 17 games. This would allow a chance for the walking wounded to get an extra week of rest, it would also add a little intrigue to the season. Imagine if it's week 15 and your team is on the playoff bubble...and your QB hasn't missed a game yet. Bottom line, if they don't play because they can't figure out how to share a bazillion dollars, then they're all idiots.

x2 The Foundation is an all time classic country album.

I'm 44 but my momma still calls me baby. (name that tune)

I've yet to find the time when a Senko won't work. Maybe not always the best choice, but never a bad choice.

I don't want to look like that. I don't even want to look AT that. To each his own.

Even though I didn't know the man, I will miss him greatly. Thoughts and prayers to his family.

The ad says 1432, which means it's 32 inches accross the bottom at its widest point. I've fished from a 1436 for the past 5 years and it's fine with one person standing, but if I had it to do over again I'd certainly buy a wider boat. My suggestion, hold out for at least a 1442. Good luck.

Jitterbug, frog, buzzbait, 10" worm-Texas rigged, Senko, all dark colors.

Picked up one of these this morning. Probably get another this afternoon.

So the world record bass was caught in Japan, while the world record Snakehead was caught in Viginia? Makes perfect sense to me. :D

Good to hear you're doing well, Avid. Congrats on a great day on the water.

Great fish as always.

5. No sunscreen. 4. No mosquito spray. 3. No rain gear. 2. Not checking your line often and retying. 1. Spending too much time with your bait out of the water.

Here's a quick update. Local news talked to a shark expert who identified the fish as a spiny dogfish shark. It was suggested that the fish did not actually swim this far north, but may have been thrown off a barge traveling up river.

Not what you expect to find on the shores of the Ohio River. Conservation Department says it's only happened a couple of other times this far north. Here are some pictures: http://www.kfvs12.videos.vmixcore.com/vmix_hosted_apps/p/media?id=13846580&item_index=1&all=1&sort=NULL
