It's perfect. Except for the wheels. 1970 Dodge Charger. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tSAsnTR122w

No way is that Ed.

Every year, without fail. Not many things scare me, the flu is one of them. Especially these new crazy strains.

Well, atleast in Japan, hopefully we will see it here too. http://www.johshuya.co.jp/shop/shop.php?s=25&no=13566

Three Rednecks, Cooter, Ronnie and Donnie were working on a cell phone tower. As they started their descent, Cooter slipped and fell off the tower. He was DRT (Dead Right There). As the ambulance took the body away, Ronnie said, "Someone should go tell his wife." Donnie said, "OK, I'm pretty good at that sensitive stuff, I'll do it." Two hours later, he came back carrying a case of Budweiser. Ronnie asked, "Where'd you get that beer?" "Cooter's wife gave it to me." Ronnie then said, "That's unbelievable, you told the woman her husband was dead and she gave you a case of beer?" "Well, not exactly." Donnie answered, "When she opened the door, I said to her, "you must be Cooter's widow.'" She said, "You're mistaken, I'm not a widow." "Then I said, 'I'll bet you a case of Budweiser you are." (Note: Rednecks are usually pretty good at all that sensitive stuff.)

actually an exterminator can help. I use to have a big spider problem, it drove Gidget nuts. :-? She called an exterminator, and now - minimal to no spiders or bugs.

This story made my blood boil as well. I don't have any kids, but I do have nephews and nieces. I'm glad to read that the child was not taken.

I took a good look at the Ike rods last year at ICAST when I went with Glenn. The rods look really nice, but oh man were they heavy. I'd be willing to bet that if they made the rods with better quality blanks that they would sell alot more of them, considering Ike's popularity. I'm just saying....

I can only imagine the trouble this could cause... http://www.kontraband.com/videos/19101/I-Spy/

Although there are a few members here that are on Dobyns staff, I have to say that the Gen 2 Dobyns Extreme rods are really nicely built. So staffers post on these threads? If there were pro staffers here for any other brand they'd probably do the same thing. Kudos to the guys on staff that are helpful. I wish there were more reps from other brands that did the same. Like Evergreen, Megabass... ;D

I see guys flying like that on the Delta all the time. Not only do they put themselves in danger, but other boats as well.

Reel Mechanic knows his stuff, no doubt...there are tons of great rods out there already built. However... If you were looking for a full custom, no holds barred rod, I would go with a GLX blank and Matagi components. For guides, I'd use Cermet, as they are the hardest/lightest rod guides you can buy, period.

Agreed. The JDM trend is catching up here with a vengenace.

They aren't all getting faster, manufacturers are just offering speedy reels as another option. There are plenty of techniques that can take advantage of the added speed.

Great article!

Right now right now? That's not good. > I potponed last years trip to go in November and can't postpone again....

Muddy, I can only imagine the life you've lived, and I'm glad you're here too pal.

You mean..Destiny. ;D

Well, even if I had the cash...it still won't pull my camper or boat. It looks real sweet, but as much as I may ooogle it, I am too practical when it comes to buying vehicles. I have set of needs I need to vehicle to fit (Transportation, Towing, hauling/storage, reliability, ease to work on, Looks, fuel economy.). Even the car I have right now...2002 Trailblazer. I ended up with it, cause it came with a towing package, could fit the 2 kids I had at the time (that numnber went to 4), could haul some stuff, with a straight 6 had decent mileage for the vehicle type. I got the base model, with 4x4. No electronic climate control, sun/moon roof etc. Got 125k on it so far. In leau of a new car I got a 09 Tracker 175 txw, a HUGE and full tackle box, vacations, etc. I get picked on non-stop from my family for being "cheap" on my cars, but hey...I am perfectly content with oogling ones like these and living with what I got. Sorry for the rambling....LOTS and LOTS of coffee today.....LOL No need to apologize. I went through the car adddiction pretty badly. Looking back, I'm glad I did it, even though I lost a ton in selling the cars I owned. I had a lot of fun with them, and met some fantastic people through the car events I would go to. Now I'm happy driving my Supercharged H2. Tows my boat no problem, no worries about door dings, scratched wheels, or people zooming in and ouot of traffic for a closer look or to snap a picture. Kind of nice to have a few things less to worry about.

No pawpaw trees in California that I know of.

Well respected member for sure. My prayers are with him and his family.

If it makes you feel any better, it will never be in anyones driveway. It's a concept car.

What industry are you in?

Welcome back.

Took Gidget and her son to see it. Wait for the DVD.
