  1. I was laying on the coach at the in-laws the first time I saw that on tv and couldn't stop laughing for nearly an hour. I was sore from laughing so hard.
  2. Make a right when your heading down 65 and go to Wheeler instead.
  3. I do the snap cast as well and it was reel that Burley found all the crap in.
  4. You will most likely find them in all stages of the cycle then. Most likely spawn/post spawn. The circled areas are the flats type areas I would look for spawners and the line is the channel to follow back to deeper water. Heading back into the skinny arm on the left is the shallower weeds and the right is steeper. just be ready for anything and don't worry the lake is small enough you will be able to work all of it in a day easily.
  5. The one I rode had an aftermarket seat as well, it was either a Mustang or Sundowner one. I was referring to overall comfort not just a softer seat. Not picking on you or anything just saying the 883 is chite no matter what. What's the old saying, you can't make a silk purse out of a sow's ear, yeah that.
  6. I wouldn't say it looks like a big bowl unless your bowls look like this: As Burley said it gets alot more pressure than you think and is absolutely full of weeds. Good idea not to bring your boat since the ramp is shallow and you have to back so far into the lake. You will be fine in the jon.

  7. There's no such thing as a better than expected 883, those things are awful from the showroom floor. Has to be the worst riding least comfortable bike I have ever had the misfortune of being on.
  8. I thought the point in having a Netflix or Blockbuster by mail was to avoid waiting like that. Of course you can watch it the same way I did last week online for free and no waiting at all.
  9. Turned into a crankbait nut the past few years. For deep cranking I use all the previous listed lures and contact with the bottom or whatever cover is arounf is an absolute must. I love throwing a series 5 in rocks around marinas and boat docks in 4'-12' of water, especially at night during the summer.
  10. He better have his own line of super oars. He just blew his motor and is down.
  11. Moved right into the lead with 11+ Check that now in second with 11-2 behind McCaghren with 11-7
  12. They finally put a note up that the 10:00 am Hooked Up will be delayed.
  13. Reading the live blog on Bassmaster.com and they are supposed to have the first Toyota HookedUp with Tim Horton and Zona at 10:00 am. Is anyone else having trouble getting the HookedUp video to load.
  14. You need to ask Roadwarrior.
  15. Nothing even compares to curling......end of discussion!!!!!!!!
  16. How, from the pic it appears to be complete.
  17. Definitely terrible half-time show. But am I the only one that caught on to the fact that they were there because CBS was carrying the game and their biggest shows use their songs.
  18. I am sure your client knows his cars but he may want to check the facts on the Boss 429 and add them to the story. And this particular car was bought in 2007 from RM Auctions in Florida for $145,800. Before that it was sold at Barrett-Jackson in 2005 for $143,000. Here's a little history on it in particular. http://www.barrett-jackson.com/application/onlinesubmission/lotdetails.aspx?ln=933&aid=51&pop=1 The Boss 429 is arguably one of the rarest and most valued muscle cars to date.[1] In total there were 1,358 Boss 429s made. The origin of the Boss 429 comes about as a result of NASCAR. Ford was seeking to develop a Hemi engine that could compete with the famed 426 Hemi from Chrysler in NASCAR's Sprint Cup Series (then known as "Grand National Division"). NASCAR's homologation rules required that at least 500 cars be fitted with this motor and sold to the general public. After much consideration, it was decided by Ford that the Mustang would be the car that would house this new engine. The Boss 429 engine was derived from the Ford 385 engine. The Mustang's body however was not wide enough to encompass the massive Boss 429 engine and as a result, Ford hired Kar Kraft out of Dearborn, MI to modify existing 428 Cobra Jet Mach 1 Mustangs to properly fit the new Boss 429 engine. Kar Kraft was contracted by Ford to create the Boss 429, because Ford was stretching itself thin across a number of projects. Kar Kraft at the time was in the process of creating the Trans-Am Boss 302. Production on the Boss 429 began in 1968 in Brighton, Michigan at Kar-Kraft's factory; the cars were transported to this plant directly from the auto maker's plant and the work began. Kar Kraft made extensive modifications to the Mustang, including widening the shock towers and extended out the inner fenders to allow this massive engine to fit. The mounts for the front suspension were chopped and displaced to create room for the block and exhaust manifolds.[1] Next the battery was repositioned to the trunk and a stiff sway bar was added to rear end. In addition, a hole was cut in the hood and a manual controlled hood scoop was added to these cars. These cars were rated conservatively at 375 hp (280 kW) and 450 lb·ft (610 N·m) of torque. Actual output was well over 500 horsepower (370 kW). The manufacturers and dealers only listed 375 hp (280 kW) because of legal issues and rising insurance costs.[2] Both model years featured a toned down exterior, as compared to other Mustangs of the era (see Boss 351, Boss 302, Mach 1), in that the only external identification of the car were the Boss 429 decals on the front fenders, aft of the front tires. The rest of the car featured a very clean look that was atypical of most Mustangs that Ford had produced. To show just how special these cars were, they were given special Nascar identification that was placed on the driver's side door. Each car was given a "KK" number which stood for Kar Kraft. KK #1201 was the first Boss 429 and KK #2558 was the last Boss 429 made.[1] Unfortunately sales started to drop off for the 1970 Boss 429 Mustangs and with higher production costs, gas costs, and other internal Ford problems, it was decided that 1970 would be the last year of the Boss 429. In present day, these cars are highly sought after. As of 2008, auctions on eBay and at Barrett-Jackson have brought bids of over $350,000. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boss_429 And this particular car was bought in 2007 from RM Auctions in Florida for $145,800. Before that it was sold at Barrett-Jackson in 2005 for $143,000. Here's a little history on it in particular. http://www.barrett-jackson.com/application/onlinesubmission/lotdetails.aspx?ln=933&aid=51&pop=1 Very cool cars that he has, can't wait to see the other pics.
  19. Looks to me some nerd with a mechanical engineering degree decided he wanted to show how smart he was take advantage of celebrities with big wallets and egos.
  20. For those at work and can't open the link to the article and for those that's just to lazy. Don't let my wife see this she will have to have one. Just look in those eyes there isn't a hint of mean in this dog, just a big baby.
  21. Because he would end up at a cricket match in North Dakota.
  22. Dominos.com shows 3 in Kingsport, 1 in Church Hill, 2 in Bristol and 1 in Abingdon. I will give it a try I guess, but as far as the old I would just as soon go to the grocery store and by a Tontino's. The crust was like cardboard and the sauce was glorified ketchup.
  23. Right there is your problem. I don't know how many people I have had in here complaining about transmissions and transfer cases in Dodge trucks in the 1994-2001 year models. A guy up the road from me that runs a utilty trailer store had one and had 5 tranny's and 3 transfer case's put in it.
  24. Made 2 orders this week from my tackle supplier. Tuesdays order shipped out Tuesday afternoon from Lexington Ky at 9:54 pm, arrived Knoxville TN 1:06 am, left Knoxville 3:54 am, arrived Bristol VA 7:02 am, (now know that Bristol is about 40 miles from here and where our UPS trucks come from) 7:52 am out for delivery, cool I'm gettin my stuff. 10:03 pm departure scan from Bristol, what it never left the hub when it was out for delivery???? 12:35 am arrives in Knoxville??? 3:59 am departure scan (it set in Knoxville 27 hours), 7:03 am TODAY arrival scan.........wait for it.......................NASHVILLE, TN.

Hey that's great I am on the 2 day shipping from the warehouse UPS does a good one in my favor................Or did they. Open the package got everything except for the reels 2 Curado E7's and a Daiwa Viento. Call the warehouse they were packed, they say check the package for evidence of tampering. They only use brown tape at the warhouse, well there is clear tape over top of it and over top of the shipping label. What do you know UPShit does it to me again, someone there has $550.00 worth of reels free. THANK YOU UPS. Oh yeah, the reels were ordered in for a customer that needed them this weekend. > > > > > > > > > > >
