It worked for me and it was a great show!!! They were some nice fish also.

Welcome to BR SON, good to have you. ;D

Wonder why someone would send me that if it wasn't true. Can't trust anybody these days.

I would personaly try a video game at home, man that is HOT I fished one about three weeks ago and it hit 100. I still caught fish all day, I caught them early on topwater and moved out to the points with a CR about 10 am. I had a towel on my head all day.

x2 I wouldn't try to tow much over 800# then it needs to be a solid bumper.

You Would Never Have Guessed Captain Kangaroo passed away on January 23, 2004 at age 76 , which is odd, because he always looked to be 76. (DOB: 6/27/27 ) His death reminded me of the following story. Some people have been a bit offended that the actor, Lee Marvin, is buried in a grave alongside 3 and 4-star generals at Arlington National Cemetery. His marker gives his name, rank (PVT) and service (USMC). Nothing else. Here's a guy who was only a famous movie star who served his time, why the heck does he rate burial with these guys? Well, following is the amazing answer: I always liked Lee Marvin, but didn't know the extent of his Corps experiences. In a time when many Hollywood stars served their country in the armed forces often in rear echelon posts where they were carefully protected, only to be trotted out to perform for the cameras in war bond promotions, Lee Marvin was a genuine hero. He won the Navy Cross at Iwo Jima There is only one higher Naval award... the Medal Of Honor! If that is a surprising comment on the true character of the man, he credits his sergeant with an even greater show of bravery. Dialog from 'The Tonight Show with Johnny Carson': His guest was Lee Marvin. Johnny said, 'Lee, I'll bet a lot of people are unaware that you were a Marine in the initial landing at Iwo Jima ..and that during the course of that action you earned the Navy Cross and were severely wounded.' 'Yeah, yeah... I got shot square in the bottom and they gave me the Cross for securing a hot spot about halfway up Suribachi. Bad thing about getting shot up on a mountain is guys getting' shot hauling you down. But, Johnny, at Iwo. I served under the bravest man I ever knew... We both got the Cross the same day, but what he did for his Cross made mine look cheap in comparison. That dumb guy actually stood up on Red beach and directed his troops to move forward and get the hell off the beach. Bullets flying by, with mortar rounds landing everywhere and he stood there as the main target of gunfire so that he could get his men to safety. He did this on more than one occasion because his men's safety was more important than his own life. That Sergeant and I have been lifelong friends. When they brought me off Suribachi we passed the Sergeant and he lit a smoke and passed it to me, lying on my belly on the litter and said, 'Where'd they get you Lee?' 'Well Bob... if you make it home before me, tell Mom to sell the outhouse!' Johnny, I'm not lying, Sergeant Keeshan was the bravest man I ever knew. The Sergeant's name is Bob Keeshan. You and the world know him as Captain Kangaroo.' On another note, there was this wimpy little man (who passed away) on PBS, gentle and quiet. Mr. Rogers is another of those you would least suspect of being anything but what he now portrays to our youth. But Mr. Rogers was a U.S. Navy Seal, combat-proven in Vietnam with over twenty-five confirmed kills to his name. He wore a long-sleeved sweater on TV, to cover the many tattoos on his forearm and biceps. He was a master in small arms and hand-to-hand combat, able to disarm or kill in a heartbeat After the war Mr. Rogers became an ordained Presbyterian minister and therefore a pacifist. Vowing to never harm another human and also dedicating the rest of his life to trying to help lead children on the right path in life. He hid away the tattoos and his past life and won our hearts with his quiet wit and charm. America's real heroes don't flaunt what they did; they quietly go about their day-to-day lives, doing what they do best. They earned our respect and the freedoms that we all enjoy. Look around and see if you can find one of those heroes in your midst. Often, they are the ones you'd least suspect, but would most like to have on your side if anything ever happened. Take the time to thank anyone that has fought for our freedom. With encouragement they could be the next Captain Kangaroo or Mr. Rogers.

54 and every Friday night before a tournament I'm like a six year old on Christmas eve. ;D

I did filed a protest with head quarters first thing Monday morning. I don't blame the guy that weighed the fish as much as I do the director. Seems the guy was fairly new to tournament fishing and didn't know, so he asked. So I will see what the out come is and will let you know. This is not about the money or losing. It's about the call and I just happened to be the recipient of it. When the call was made no one had any idea who had what for fish or weight. And what makes this so bad is that the TD in question has been a TD for like 25 years. I guess my name will be mud around the tournament trail. I have always tried to play by the rules ( even I'm not perfect ) But thats what they have them for. The first thing one guy asked me is would I have protested if it hadn't knocked me out of first. And the answer to that is that I did protest before any fish were weighed. Now I think I'm beginning to hate my self for it, I hate to be the one to cause the TD to lose his job because I know that he loves to fish just as good as I do. I still have to fish a two day tournament with him in about three weeks. :-/

You need to try sneaking up on a Brown Bear with a ball bat, now this would be fun and sportsman like. ;D

What song you talking about, hook me up.

It just ain't normal. ;D

That was good Cep. Here's one my son wrote a few months back and him and the guys played in church. Well I couldn't get it to post because I have it on my PC as and attachment. Sorry

Well after all the years of fishing tournaments I finally got tattooed today. We were all gather at the weigh in and one of the fisherman walked up to the director and said he had a fish on and he came unhooked at the boat, he said the fish went under the boat and came up on the other side where he caught him with a landing net. he wanted to know if he could weigh him in and director told him yes. I spoke up and told the director that the fish had to be caught with a hook. Well the director wouldn't change the call and guess how got the short end of the stick ( yours truly ) I weighted my fish and then spoke to the director about the call that he made. Didn't get no response from him. So the guy brings his fish to the scale and he beat me by.06 oz Well I got crosseyed and refused to accept 2nd place. The guy then spoke up and said he didn't weigh that fish that he throw ed him back. This was not the case because I watched him the whole time. Was I right or wrong? And should I call headquaters? Things that went wrong. 1- He shouldn't have said anything, at least while I was there. 2- I fill that the director should have changed the call. 3- The guy shouldn't of said he threw him back when I new different. 4- I probably shouldn't have got crossed eyed.

That was the best move you made by getting the 5.4. I have two of the 4.6 and they drink gas like my 3.0 mercury, I get about 9 or 10 mpg on them and 17 or 18 on the F250 5.4. Congrats on your new truck.

I would have to wear a diaper.

Heavyduty trash bag, you can move everything out with this. ;D
