  1. Went up to BPS today. My buddy Rick was in the market for some new rods, and wanted to check out the Johnny Morris stuff. Turns out they were on sale from $169 to $109, so we bought 3! Really impressed...a definite upgrade from my BPS Extremes. Will keep the Carrot Stick for shakey head and finesse, and use the Morris for gettin jiggy with it.
  2. Sweet. Got ya beat tho, today in the snow and freezing rain I delivered 155 packages ;D
  3. I was really banking on my Clemens rookie cards being worth something some day.... : Still got Wade Boggs tho
  4. Many of you may remember the black and white picture of my great grandfather taken in 1939 with his 39lb striper. It was taken in front of his summer cottage. I learned yesterday that the cottage on the island of Jamestown (R.I.) is for sale. The kicker is, he and my great grandmother got divorced back in (around 1951), and he GAVE the cottage away to spite her. It broke my grandfather's heart, because he and my dad would go down there to fish. My great grandfather was part of what is known as "Clarke's Village" on Beavertail (the southern tip of Jamestown) Even tho the house has been out of the family since the early 50's....I still feel emotionally attached, knowing the good times my grampa and my dad had there. So, to sum it up, here's what 657 sq feet right on the Atlantic Ocean will cost ya.... :'( :'( :'( Sucks to be us. Not even the cost of the property, but just the sentimental value. I'm sure someone with a briefcase full of money will tear it down. http://riliving.com/PropSearch/sfformdetails.asp?MLSid=832750&page=1&photopath=space
  5. I'm not a fan of chassis grounds in cars.... In the race cars, we always ground everything to the battery. Just me....
  6. Simmons Sporting Goods...
  7. I'm in for sure. I'll see if Rick's up for it.
  8. Oh....for a split second I thought you were referring to moi....but I have too many posts.... :-[
  9. I lived on Federal Hill in Providence for 9 years...ever hear of it?
  10. Wife had it, son had it, I had it...missed a day of work last week.
  11. Well, it IS only 10 minutes down the road from here..... I could use some of that furniture for the new family room downstairs! I don't think your clothes would fit.... 8-)
  12. Why did I ever leave Florida to move back up here..... :'(
  13. Great input everyone! That's what makes this place great. 8-)
  14. I think I already know the answer, and I'm sure it has nothing to do with Bass. Did you ever wonder why, if all the fish sees is this: Why is there also a need for this?
  15. IMO it's impressive, considering he had to shift the car. I would bet the Mustang has a 2 speed Powerglide in it in order to run that fast. What's the race weight of the Mitsy/Talon? I understand that it has a 4cyl, but you're also talking AWD vs a Fox body Mustang that also more than likely weighs 3200-3400 lbs depending on a few factors. Just curious.....You asked what other hobbies we had I've been around a bit.
  16. That sucks when a 7.86 beats a 7.70.... he got mowed down on the tree....then again, I'm sure you know who I was pulling for.
  17. If you step up to the $150 mark, you could get a Carrot Stick to match. Borrowed this pic from Redline Robert....working on getting a 2000 size Sol to go on my Carrot spinning rod....
  18. Out of all my lipless cranks, my favorites are the Red Eye Shad and the Yo Zuri Rattlin Vibe. Both run straight and make a ton of noise.
  19. ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D
  20. Remember the old days, when you had to mix the plastic by hand? Lookin' good!
  21. My dad bought some Fireline Crystal last summer....it's more like white dental floss as I recall.
  22. 9 out of 13.....I study maps. I don't know why, I just do.... :-/
  23. Sounds to me like they were South of the Mason Dixon....just my observation...... :P
