Super Bowl or World Series? you choose
I was stationed for a year in the Aleutians on the island of Adak Alaska, lots of WWII history on Adak. Maybe i walked some of the same places he did as i was always on my off days down by the old docks, piers and barracks which were no longer being used but full of abandoned history.

No i was not in aviation, I was in the Navy Seabees, Seabees are the engineering corp of the Navy, I was an EO which is a heavy equipment operator running bulldozers, cranes... building airstrips, clearing ground to put up anything needed for other services to come and use. Seabees provide a wide range of construction in support of operating forces, including roads, bridges, bunkers, airfields and logistics bases; provides responsive support disaster recovery operations; performs civic action projects to improve relations with other nations; and provides anti-terrorism and force protection for personnel and construction projects. Our motto is “We Build, We Fight.”

Would you like to see your favorite NFL football team win the super bowl or rather see your favorite baseball team win the World Series? I as a life long Greenbay Packer fan from the Bart Starr days watching them on tv and for baseball a life long Baltimore Orioles fan from the days of Brooks Robinson watching them on saturday afternoon baseball, I would have to choose to see the Orioles win the world series. I was stationed in Adak Alaska in 1983 listening to the world series between them and the Phillies on the Armed Forces radio network. It has been so long since 1983, 40 years that i wonder if i will ever see them even participate in another series.- What’s going to kill all of the bass next?

Cocaine cowboys.- Protecting my car during a hail storm
A good 10 days ago here in Fargo ND i was outside replacing a power steering belt on my car when a storm came through. A little rain was projected and then this happened, it was coming down in sheets so i grabbed a bunch of blankets, coveralls and a shop coat from the garage and threw it on the car, with the wife helping me and laughing as the nuggets were bouncing off my bald head and yes they hurt. The wind was very strong and drove the hail sideways so i did get a few dimples on the drivers side.- Post a photo a day!

Wife and I hit the dam in Lisbon N.D today. Bought a scoop of fatheads to do some bobber jig fishin for smallies and walleye. I had a very fun day full of some great fighting fish. I caught this Buffalo head fish and it was a nice battle, I played him so as to not break off and he oblidged. Then i caught some white bass and they were scrappy fellas and some wallaye thrown in to take home. I then hooked into this welterweight fighter, this catfish i tell ya they really have some muscle. I hooked 3 of them this size today on a bobber, jig, minnow, they get hooked nicely in the very corner of the mouth and though not huge cats when ya get them close to shore they turn and roll and take off for another run, great fighting fish. We arrived home at 12:30 am.- The Beer Is Brewing, The Trash Is Flying, and The Race For The Pennant Is On!

- Tying a Palomar knot, a technical question.
when done tying it take a closer look with a magnifying glass, i do when i tie leaders and jigs at home i will occasionally take a close look. Palomars look alot different from 20lb fluoro down to much smaller and tying 30lb the palomar looks less tightly compact.- The Beer Is Brewing, The Trash Is Flying, and The Race For The Pennant Is On!
