SPEEDBEAD.

Keith, I agree 100% I remember you made mention of Raul falling into this category. While there may have been an instance of "miscommunication or misunderstanding", Raul's posts are informative and grammatically superior to a lot of what you see on here. Like was said earlier and numerous times before...No one is asking anyone to be a college English major. FFI, I dont have computer access at night, so I didnt see your post until this morning. I agree with you about our agreement to disagree. I think that came out correctly. ;D

LOL, what about that NJ Custom 8 footer? From what I hear, that thing is a beast!!!

Matt, thanks. Same back at you. Mike, internetiquette typically would suggest that CAPS is considered yelling unless somehow explained otherwise by the poster. All lower case lettering, as far as I know, doesnt signal anything other than indifference toward capitalization in a sentence. I am not so sure one is preferable over the other, but there is more of a negative stigma associated with all caps. If I have to choose, I guess I would rather talk to a lazy person than someone who is yelling at me

I am having a great time. I will play nice.

Honestly, I am not talking about the occasional typo. I realize that (from your post) time is money to some people. That may be true. Think about this....If "time" is so fleeting and limited in someone's life, shouldnt that time be designated to a more important activity? I laugh when I hear school age people on here say, "I only use this language when I am on a forum." BULL!!! Look at Russ' post; ask his sister (a teacher). When poor grammar is so widely used and commonly accepted by a majority of people, its inevitable that it will become the "norm." I refuse to accept that....

LOL!!! Are you serious? You have been butchering the English language since you started posting... BTW, I highlighted something for you there buddy. :-X

Nope, too lazy....

Mike, I think a majority of the problem began when users no longer had to push the "shift" key to capitalize important words in a sentence. MS Word and other programs now have a simulated brain to do all your thinking for you. It will capitalize the beginning of your sentences, your "I's" and at least note important words that should have a capital letter so the user can decide if a "big letter" is necessary. Spell check is a wonderful thing, but does nothing to assist the user in learning the words. It makes for a wonderful tool if a document needs to look professional, but unfortunately really only highlights the lack of spelling ability for many people. Wayne !!LO!Lz, pwnage is sw33t ^ What the hell is that?

I would bet you LOSE a bunch.... Just messin' buddy.

That article really got me thinking... If they are in Minnesota, how many do you think are downstream? Creepy.

^ Still hasnt figured out that he should check his signature.... and spell Y'ALL correctly. I was never good at being subtle...

yea, but this is a fishing forum.... If thats "all" you think this is, then you might be missing the point....

You can doubt all you want. Glad the people around here dont fish them...

LOL, I thought the same thing.... Nice thing about those though, they float

Be careful. While that 2.5oz weight may give you a general feel for a lure that heavy, dont forget that you likely wont be able to cast a swimbait that far. Also, your best practice is gonna come on the water. Tie on your lure that you made and hit the ponds!!!

With the recent downturn in the price of oil, I was wondering if anyone has seen it reflected in the price at the pump. Most places around me are 3.89 right now, but there is a "Flying J" truck stop on I-81 currently selling gas at 3.53. What are you seeing?

^^^Still has no idea how to spell Y'ALL... : And that is coming from a "yank" as you so eloquently describe people in the north...LOL

Ok, a few things near the end of your statement there... 1. 1200cc Harleys are not big. 2. 50-80 MPG does not happen on Harleys. Scooter looks cool for short rides and maybe cruising around in the pits, other than that I think your money would be better spent on an actual scooter if your intent is to save on gas.

LOL, I hear the water is nice in RI this time of year. Gary? Who are you expecting to show up? My name has been Wayne for 28 years LOL

^ The poster above me has completely lost his marbles.... and his fiance refuses to give them back.

Check out the colors on the perch bait!!! http://www.316lurecompany.com/baits/wakejr.html the same color in the baby wake and now black too!! http://www.316lurecompany.com/baits/babywake.html Great looking baits, gotta see them to believe it!!!

Ditto.

Same here

I just got a rod that feels really light... USPS just gave me a Crucial stick. No idea where it came from, but it is niiiiiiiiiiiiice. : Good morning!!!

I was definitely thinking jerkbait too.
