Whos Knows Metal Detectors
If you're going to detect near salt water you need a pulse induction type machine. But you will not get one for $200. The best one for the money is the Tesoro Sand Shark, around $600. If you're going to stick to dry sand, you can get away with a standard single frequency VLF machine, like the Garrett 250. But it is useless in wet sand (where most of the good stuff is).

What's The Best Concert You've Ever Attended?
I went to one of his shows years ago, and I agree, it was terrible. It was the only concert I ever actually got up and left early. Gretchen Wilson opened for him and her show was great, so it wasn't a total bust.

Bug A Salt. Wow, What Else Will They Come Up With.
I agree. The entertainment factor increases exponentially when you add beer to the equation.

Bass Pond Start Up
This^^^^^^. Minnows first, then bream, then largemouth. I'd wait at least two years before introducing any predators, assuming the bream population is sustaining itself. The numbers and ratio are critical. If you overstress the forage base, everything dies.

Poison Ivy Removal
If you lived nearby I'd come over and rip it out for you - I'm immune to the stuff. But let me re-emphasize: DO NOT, DO NOT, DO NOT burn it. Anybody that smoke touches will be itching. Round-up is da bomb.

Cam Newton 5 Year $100 Million Deal
I didn't say U of F was perfect. All I said was Newton is a thief and got kicked out. Auburn still accepted him knowing all that. If U of F had known about Hernandez while he was in school, I'm certain he would also have got the boot. And I seriously doubt the Patriots would have drafted him had they known about his criminal activities.

Cam Newton 5 Year $100 Million Deal
Not to burst anybody's bubble, but Newton is a thief. He got booted out of the University of Florida because he was caught stealing stereo equipment. So he did what all the disciplinary and academically challenged athletes do - he transferred to Auburn.

The Belmont
Materiality is the only horse that scares me. I picked him to win the Derby. His Dosage Index is 2.33, the lowest of all the Belmont entries, while at 4.33 American Pharoah is the highest. (For those not familiar with DI, it is a number calculated from bloodlines to indicate whether a horse is genetically inclined for speed or stamina. The higher the number, the more a horse is suited for speed. The lower the number, the more a horse is suited for distance.) At Belmont (12 furlongs) it would appear that AP is at a disadvantage based on DI. Also, Materiality's trainer Todd Pletcher is no stranger to the winners circle at Belmont - he trained two of the last eight horses to wear the white carnations.

No problem, as long as you don't mind replacing ball joints.

Some good ju-ju had to rub off on those rods. Especially since you let Mr. Racer go unharmed.

The Belmont
I think Pharoah has the best chance since Smarty Jones in 2004. He has the distance bloodlines. His father, Pioneer Of The Nile, had all of his wins at 1 1/16 mile or longer, including the Santa Anita Derby. His grandfather (P.O.N.'s father) is Empire Maker, who won the Belmont Stakes. But the mile and a half at Belmont is tough, especially when you have to face all those big, fresh horses who have been waiting for you, training only for the Belmont.

Just Had The Crap Scared Out Of Me!
Late one night I was sitting on the toilet in the dark and something landed on my head. I reached up to find out what it was, and it jumped off my head. I turned on the bathroom light and there was a tree frog on the wall near the crapper LOL.
