  1. We bought another German Shepherd pup from a breeder around 3 weeks ago. He showed us papers on the mother and father and both were present, but stated that the AKC hadn't gotten his litter registration back to him yet, and that he would get it to us in the mail the following week. A couple of weeks went by, and I called him and left a message. That evening he got back to me and said the papers were on his desk, and that the AKC had just gotten them to him that day. He then said he would mail them the following day. It is now a week after he promised to mail them, and we still haven't received the papers to register her. Needless to say our patience is running thin with this man. What should we do? It seems, at this point, that he is giving us the runaround on our $800 pup!
  2. The blurr in the pic has covered up the last few digits. You can't see the whole card number in the pic.
  3. Glad you got to make it home. Where's that garage? I can go over and keep an eye on that stuff for ya. ;D ;D Just kidding. Keep your head down, and your powder dry!
  4. ;D ;D ;D Now that's worth sharing.
  5. BFE? Are you at Fort Leonard Wood or something? ;D ;D ;D Glad to see you home!
  6. Welcome home. My little brother is over their right now at FOB Kalsu. He is with the 3rd ID. He's going to miss Christmas home this year, so keep him in your thoughts. I spent a total of 2 years over there between 20 March, 2003 to 15 August, 2005 with the 1st Force Reconnaissance Company. Only those of us that have been over there have a right to fuss about it in my opinion. ;D Good to see you home.
  7. How many G's are on the human body at 124 mph? Terminal velocity of a skydiver is 124 mph.
  8. Gander Mountain or BPS gift card! Seriously! You will end up with 'not-exactly-what-you-wanted' and she will feel bad if you take them back to exchange them. Some people think gift cards are not well thought out gifts. Me, on the other hand, see it as the exact opposite. You are being considerate enough to tell the person to get what they want instead of what you want them to have. I'm the 'King of Christmas' with my Dad's side of the family, because I always give gift cards. It's better to give a well thought out gift card than to give them something like socks, or something they will never use or they already have 3 of. I'm one of the fortunate ones to have a wife that knows what to look for in baits. She is an avid fisherman and learner herself, so I have nothing to worry about. Although, most women are the total opposite.
  9. I have a relative on the board of trustees at UK. Believe me when I say that they are looking into replacing Gillespie if he doesn't get his act together. In my opinion, I think UK will expect the next applicants to be nothing short of a clone to Adolph Rupp. ;D We need a good coach who doesn't abuse the players into winning. It's college basketball, and not the NFL.
  10. Sure didn't look like a chute to me! It looked more like a ragdoll head on a stick with a pair of child's coveralls to me. Maybe he was trying to make a statement to someone, and ended up screwing up. Then again, it could have been an edited video. You never can tell these days if a video is authentic or not.
  11. Reminds me of a story my Grandad told me about when he was a State Trooper in Island, KY back in the '50s. He got a call around 3 a.m. in the morning about a man they had found in a tree not too far from where my Grandparents lived. He went out to check it out, and there was a black man .... hanging in a tree with a suicide note pinned to his chest. The man had his left arm hanging freely beside him, but his right hand was in his back pocket. My Grandad pulled his hand out to see what he was reaching for, and it was a pocket knife. Evidently the man had changed his mind at the last minute, but it was too late.
  12. I know you're not going to believe this but that is what I just had...weird. Sleep is such a waste of time I think. Too much to do in the world. I used to have that problem until I found out my need for a nightly routine. I go to bed around 1 a.m., and get up around 9 a.m. for work at 10. When I lay my head down at night I have a clear head, and a clear conscience. It does help to have the t.v. on with the sleep timer set to 30 minutes. I usually hit 'TV Land' and something like Andy Griffith or Leave it to Beaver is on. ;D A pair of wireless headphones helps if you can't turn the volume up too loud. Ninety percent of the time I wake up a few hours later, and take them off, but I fall right back to sleep and rarely remember doing this. The wife doesn't care, and she rarely notices the light in the room from the tv for the 30 minutes it is on. Also, PB&J and a glass of milk or hot chocolate helps me as well.
  13. Sounds to me like the guy is a Con. Looks to me like he is just looking for a little free money if you ask me.
  14. I'm looking into several tournament jerseys for 2008. The only problem is I can't figure out where to buy them. I looked at a Skeeter Tournament Jersey, but it's not exactly what I'm looking for. I want the name of the company enlarged on the front so I can put my name on the back. The jersey on their website are the opposite. They have the name small on the left breast with a large print of 'Skeeter' on the back. Anyway, does anyone know where I can find a jersey like the ones the pro's wear?
  15. Now that's some BS if I've ever heard any. ;D ;D A Kistler rod? Come on. I was a member of that club for 6 years while I was in college. All I ever got was several packets of Eagle Claw hooks, a plastic fish hook remover, a small worm tote that would cost me $3 in the store, and a few patches. No way they sent you a Kistler! You sure you don't want to edit that before too many people see it? In my opinion they are a junk club. They send you books and films to review then try and charge you $20 for them later on. I told them to quit sending me them, because I was tired of going to the post office to send the junk back.
  16. "Cool Hand Luke" "Mad Max" "The Outlaw Josey Wales" "Red Dawn" "Jeremiah Johnson" w/ Robert Redford I have quite a few other favorites, but those are the first that come to mind.
  17. ;D ;D ;D I had that happen once. I was in Berlin talking to a buddy of mine on the cell, and the waitress asked, " Do you speak enqwish?" I looked at her with a questioning look on my face.
  18. OMG. She reminds me so much of this girl I dated in college. She was from South Carolina if that tells you anything. ;D To think they have the nerve to make fun of Kentuckians. ;D
  19. It's really hard to say. I tend to err to the side of science, and lean away from religious beliefs in things pertaining to the end of the world. Even though the Mayans were a highly advanced tribe, I find it hard to believe that they would be able to predict the end of the world with their technology at the time. I believe things may happen, but I do not think the world will end in 2012. Well, unless some religious nut job decides to push that 'Little Red Button' on that day. ;D Then life would be a lot more complicated for everyone. Then again, it might be interesting to find out how some people handle the world as we know it being wiped clean. ;D No technologies, and everyone starts back at square one. Although, that is a far cry from reality. I honestly think it will be just like any other day.
  20. Actually, this would give me something to do at work on Monday! All I've been doing for the past 3 days is sitting around twittling my thumbs since it has been raining here for almost a week solid. We can't get out in the field to do some of the work we have lined up, so I sit in an office with a bunch of test / lab equipment and machines. I literally don't have anything better to do.
  21. Hey Jack, good luck on laying an opinion to rest. ;D ;D ;D No ... I'll do it professionally. I won't stretch the truth or change the results in any way. Don't worry I'm an honest man. If it shows in favor of Tungsten then it's so, but that still won't change my opinion.
  22. Nothing worse than 2 German women in a boat arguing about "weak line". I kept thinking, "Shut up already!" ;D Then the woman with the camera kept trying to pose the bass. That was a nice 8 or 9 pounder anyway.
  23. I need the opinion of some of you, because I am going to lay the "Tungsten Vs. Lead, Brass, or Stainless Steel" question to rest once and for all. What sort of verifiable tests should I run on each weight to determine which is best? I have a lab full of testing equipment at my disposal, but I am needing to know what tests I should run on them.
  24. If you take a 1/4 oz. Tru-Tungsten worm weight, and compare it to a 1/4 oz. lead weight, their is a huge difference....The tungsten weight is wwwaaayyy smaller than the lead weight...the tungsten weight has smaller line contact than a lead weight does so you are getting more "bait" sensitivity. And ecause it is so much smaller than the lead weight, the bass are LESS likely to shy away from it....For those reasons, believe it or not, you CAN catch more bass than an ordinary lead weight. And your sponsor is who???? None the less ...... Tru -Tungsten! You get paid to say that. ;D ;D ;D For all of you out there wanting to try Tungsten. Try a buddy's Tungsten weight, and compare it to Stainless Steel. You won't be able to tell the difference. I think I'm going to do a test on both of them, and get back the results. I will do a resonance, and maybe a few more. I will let you all know the results, so you can quit being pulled in by all of this hokum!
