Yes, the Road Trip will cure you for at least a week. ;D

Many thanks Ninja, but any Old Fart worth his salt knows how to harass the youngsters. It's a badge of honor that we all proudly wear. The youngsters always fail to realize that we were also young, a long, long time ago, and can pretty much read their minds. ;D

Glenn is a very busy man these days, so he forgot to mention that the new site has a form for you folks who will be attending. That sign-up form is vital to me, as I am the poor sap who will be trying to coordinate with those who have beds, those who need beds; and those who have boats with seats and those who need seats ... and, uh, those who need boats with beds ... or is it sheds with beets... I forget. Awright then, I will be right on top of these matters. Uh-Huh. The doctor says I'm doing fine since I got out of the Nervous Hospital. Uh-Huh. I forgot to mention, THERE IS NO SIGN-UP FEE. To date, there are no organized after-hours events, no freebies, and no T-Shirts. Deb and Greg may have an Ace or two or three up their sleeves, but they are not specific as yet. Regardless, those of you who have signed up need to mail to me a signed copy of the form. Thanks in advance, Uh-Huh.

Move... x2 If you can't stand the heat get out of the kitchen - in reverse. ;D

I talked to several Elite Series pros at a seminar I attended last January in Dallas. All three of them said that they prefer Samurai.

As Timothy Leary once said, "Turn on, tune in, and drop out." Just kidding kid. You'll work through it. It's part of becoming an adult.

I grew up in Cajun Country. Hot, black and strong Community Dark Roast is what I drink all day. I usually pour my last cup around 4:00.

Braid is on all my rods, both bait casting and spinning. Unless I'm fishing in salad I always use a seven foot flouro leader. It allows plenty of line to retie as needed.

In cold water your thermostat will take a while to heat up and allow the motor to start peeing. Make sure that the motor is peeing before you hit the throttle. The pee stream means that the motor has fully warmed up and is not subject to cold-seize.

I don't wear a suit, but I can confirm that Big-O is coming. He will be rooming with RW and me.

Kelly, all the best to both you and Alpster. I'm sure it's no picnic for either of you. Hope to see both of you on the Road Trip.

ATTABOY, LEE!!!

I'm in, again, but this year I would prefer to see the pairings to be totally random.

Looking forward to it, Wayne!

Some of us are LSU fans. Retract that statement or I'll hunt you down and kill you like the dirty dog you are. BS aside, this certainly has been a week-end of surprises. Now, we are waiting for the outcome of a closely fought OU vs OSU game.

Nice Zinger, Brian! ;D ;D ;D

Kent, does that mean that I no longer have to dress as the dancing girl every evening? ;D

Yes!

US security is a joke. Try living and traveling in the Middle East. Full body pat-downs are the norm. The Arabs and the Israelis know how to do it right. I have had my scrotum lifted on many an occasion. Before protesting my indignity, I somehow always noticed the guy standing near-by with an AK-47. The security guards didn't take it personally, so neither did I. For those of you who are squeamish, I suggest you get over it. Do you honestly believe that anyone in the TSA gives a rat's ass about infringing on your so-called rights? They are doing the best job they know how to do, within the constraints they have. For example, the TSA is not allowed to do profiling, so they have to screen EVERYONE What kind of BS is that?

I wear my Leatherman Wave almost all the time. Don't know how I ever got along without it.

I agree that SI has had the greatest impact. However, let's not forget about the greatest innovation in trolling motors in many years - wireless remote control.
