Music?
This new rap stuff out there right now is garbage. I'll 100% agree with you.But don't talk crap about the old school rap/hip hop.They would murder your favorite singers on a microphone very quickly. Your only 15 so i wouldn't expect you to know much about the older rap style.Matter of fact I bet these guys could spit words you never even heard of.So they are far retarded from your average spoiled new generation singers.

RoadWarrior I need some help with my game plan.
That's the flat out truth......They start dieing here right around November. Hopefully now people can understand why i put up the rods and reels early. Winter came too early this year. >

Good Medium priced swimbait rod
I'm seriously considering looking @ the iROD Genesis Series rods. They have a bunch of rods for handling that heavier weight you are looking at. It's right @ $150 which is the most I will spend on a rod as well.

Is it just me...
Good advice.....Since he is still young,very young yet. I don't think your dad is 100% wrong. I also understand the meaning "you only live once" also. If you can afford it and it won't hurt you financially I say go for it.

need ideas for wooden things to make.
I have a buddy who made a wooden jewelry box in a shape of a heart.He did it for his wife and she loved it. He had a few guys asking him to make them one as well.It wasn't no bigger than i wanna say 4 Width" x4" Length X 3" Thick.It was cut in half and hollowed out.Don't remember what he lined the inside of it with.Pretty cool what he did with it since he did it at work during Christmas week when we were slow of work that week. Very neat little idea i can see making some money off of on Ebay.

Anyone try the Reese Victory Baitcasting Reel???
This one makes me think he's somehow sponsored by Reese. Better than the citica? I would take this review with a grain of salt. More bearings do not make it a better reel. :-/ I won't touch any Skeet Reese product with a 10 foot pole. I don't care how cosmetically hyped up they are.They make look pretty to some,but you get what you pay for.Many reviews saying these reels are noiser than heck!So what good is those bearing doing then? Gotta make you wonder..... I don't see these reels lasting more than a year for most people.

What is a must for every tackle box?
Grand Rapids is a little away from where i am.If you ever come this way to Canton(wayne county) MI. give me a PM and I'll gladly give you some tips if you decide to meet up somewhere. If i get myself a better car that can take the distant I'll do the same. If you are shore bound with no boat,some of the stuff these guys mentioned are gonna be a hassle to carry.LOL Hats,sunglasses and sun tan lotion are the first 3 things you need.Gotta stay safe right?

xmas exchange? >>>>>>>> DATE REVISED <<<<<<<<<
If its supposed to be secret, WHOOPS! I had to let my person know I couldn't buy until I got the money :-/ Then why did you say you would participate? My money situation wasn't . at the time Man...if you had been paired with me, I would be getting you a Fushigi. He'll just be getting his package around new years? I didn't know that was a horrible thing. How would you feel if everybody did that too you?

Ugh....The family dog had to be put down last night.
Sorry to hear. If i ever lose our Dog,I already told my wife I'm bringing home a New dog either the same day or the very next day. I can't cope without a dog,specially not here. I like and agree with people suggesting another dog,but only you would know if he's ready for one.

Anyone had any luck with certain job web sites?
It got me no where last year....I was laid off in 09' when the auto company plunged. I was laid off for almost the entire 09'(Dec. 08-Nov. 09') year before i got my callback from my old job.I'm one of the lucky call back ones. I think i must have filled out over 2000+ applications. The few that did call me were a bunch of B.S. where they were looking to hire like 3 people out of 900 applicate. Half of the time it was stuff where i didn't have experience in and they really weren't telling you what exactly the job was.No idea how they got my name because i written down every company and position i applied in and they weren't on my list. I had 3 promising calls for second interviews,when i showed up 30+ people were right behind me waiting for their turn. I had the experience,skills and years in and still got beat on getting hired. It was probably the most frustrated time in my life. I still have nightmares of getting laid off again still. Your best bet is listen to your neighbors and friends. It almost the only way to get hired here still in MI. If you hear about something go apply in person,unless otherwise told of another way.That was one way i got in on one company,but I couldn't survive off what they wanted to pay me.I was getting paid more in unemployment so i had to turn them down. It almost turned out to be a big mistake that would cost me,but lucky i get a phone call 1 week later from my old job wanting me back. I don't know how much this helps,but i will say good luck and keep your head above.I know jobs aren't easy to come by anymore.
