Dan:

As I type this Wolf Blitzer is saying he was found and ok. His name is Falcon? Whisky Tango Foxtrot? Did anyone else immediately picture a baby in a clear red balloon? When I first read the post I pictured a baby in a regular party balloon and thought it was a joke...

you're going to be limited to creeks. One that I would recommend would be Mattawoman creek on the MD side. Look up Slavin's boat ramp. You can launch back there very easily and it is very sheltered from the wind.

That's gotta be one tough bike

I'll be watching the battle of the beltway: UVA vs. MD to see which team is worse. Other than that, you have to watch Oklahoma vs. Texas and USC vs Notre Dame. My upset of the week: GT over VT. I can't say I'm hoping for it but it's just a sneaking hunch.

just be careful, Duke was ranked as one of the douchiest universities in America. seriously though, that is a great hospital and I'm sure you are in the hands of the best doctors.

Dr. Pepper? lmao that girl at 1:42 was the most attractive drive thru employee I've ever seen.

like English class? ;D

Anyone ever go fishing for white perch before? I've been out twice in the past week. They are a good fight on ultralight gear and very delicious when coated with Bisquick and fried.

They are parked on school property. They can look through the windows as much as they want and can search the car if they have probable cause

You can get by with a cheap pair but you will regret it in the long run. Costa Del Mar, Oakley, Maui Jim, etc...are good brands to start off your research.

Sure, he's six, but haven't there been stories of six year olds shooting/stabbing each other? The mother really should have known better than to let him take a knife to school. Should it really matter? No, but it would have saved her the trouble. The rule is stupid but it's easy enough to avoid. Although the severe punishments are obvious stupidity.

just rinse it off. you'll be fine.

nice work dude (as usual) I've been working on my fly fishing lately, hopefully I'll be able to get after some mountain trout this fall.

way to go Rowland.

I completely agree with you guys about the VT game. I even said right afterwards that Nebraska deserved to win. I'm still not convinced that I would even be all that impressed if Nebraska had won. I do not believe VT is nearly as good as their ranking, but they are probably the best non conference opponent that those teams have played so far.

Must have been a slow bass. Don't worry about it looking painful, he didn't feel a thing.

Use the winter to plan strategies for the spring then let your fishing do the talking for you.

That's gotta be one of the funniest stories I've ever heard.

I'll be interested to see how any of them do in their bowl games. None of them have played any difficult non-conference games with the exception of Nebraska at VT.

I'll probably end up watching the game but the truth is it probably won't matter for the Big 12. The North had a chance at showing it's relevance when Missouri and Chase Daniel were so highly ranked two years ago. Now Missouri isn't in the picture anymore and neither is the rest of the north. Are either of those teams really capable of beating Texas or even Oklahoma? Oklahoma State?

A battle of no consequence for the ages!

That's pretty hard to know for sure but I'd imagine all of those fisheries are capable of producing a 10lb fish. They can all be very difficult to figure out as well and with the exception of BDC they all get lots of pressure. I'll say this: if I had a boat, I wouldn't fish anywhere in the area besides the Potomac.

If you like Quantums then go for it. Just make sure you have a nice rod to match with it, it sure is a pretty reel.

What? :-? They must have the wrong pics up because they sure look like low profile reels to me!

The Potomac is the best fishery in NOVA.
