Tarzan's Jane

Your girlfriend must have a lot of shoes

I confess...I was lurking, waiting for my son to put a movie on...and low and behold...there you are. Mr. Misfish, you have been missed. If there is one thing that I have learnt being on OFC is that fishermen are liars. Liar, Liar, Liar. Brian...maybe it's mid-life crisis, or maybe you ate a bad fish...but to give up fishing!!! nahhhh, I don't believe that. You have so many friends here and so many people who care about you, and your family... Hey...does one need to fish and post about it in order to be a part of this board??? no It's nice to see you back...truly it is. Nancy

Welcome to the board Jason

lol Excellent news...hope there's more to come..like who dun it.

A Russian and a Newfoundland wrestler were set to square off for the Olympic Gold medal. Before the final match, the Newfie wrestler's trainer came to him and said, "Now, don't forget all the research we've done on this Russian. He's never lost a match because of this 'pretzel' hold he has. Whatever you do, do not let him get you in that hold! If he does, you're finished"; the Newfie nodded in acknowledgment. As the match started, the Newfie and the Russian circled each other several times, looking for an opening. All of a sudden, the Russian lunged forward, grabbing the Newfie and wrapping him up in the dreaded pretzel hold. A sigh of disappointment arose from the crowd and the trainer buried his face in his hands, for he knew all was lost. He couldn't watch the inevitable happen. Suddenly, there was a scream, then a cheer from the crowd and the trainer raised his eyes just in time to watch the Russian go flying up in the air. His back hit the mat with a thud and the Newfoundlander collapsed on top of him making the pin and winning the match. The trainer was astounded. When he finally got his wrestler alone, He asked, "How did you ever get out of that hold? No one has ever done it before!" The wrestler answered "Well, I was ready to give up when he got me in that hold but at the last moment, I opened my eyes and saw this pair of testicles right in front of my face. I had nothing to lose so with my last ounce of strength I stretched out my neck and bit those babies just as hard as I could." So the trainer exclaimed, "That's what finished him off!" "Not really" said the Newfie. "but you'd be amazed how strong you get when you bite your own nuts!"

Sure would be nice to have it sitting back there this morning... Had a gutless cutlass stolen many years ago. The guy used a stolen credit card to fill it up...gas attendant was on the ball...didn't take long for the Police to catch up to him. Anyhow...I know the feeling well...hope it works out for you.

It's not fair for anyone in the family. I had a mild case of it and what helped was getting the help with the baby and my own determination to not let "it" overtake me. Feelings I had were those of a deep deep sadness...it would suddenly hit me and it was an overwhelming sense of total despair. Very scary feeling. I had to do a lot of self-talk...and it did help to have some "me" time. Every woman is different and thankfully I was only mildly affected. I have known of some women who's family members had to look after the child for months. Perhpas let her read your thread here ... it helps to know that you are not alone and that other husbands have stuck it out ... but also, to seek medical advice if the PPD does not subside. Hopefully she will be able to determine that on her own otherwise you will need to gently bring it up, or other family members too can help with that. She needs to be kind to herself...it will go away. All the best to all of you. Nancy

Way to go you two. Funny, I was thinking the same as Irishfield...but I knew about your older daughter. Now the newbies do too. Keep those reports coming.

What a handsome fishing buddy you got there....enjoyed your report.

I will be painting for the first time myself...and so went online to get some tips and came across a new little gadget called an Accubrush..check it out at Painthelpers.com...it looks amazing for cutting. I want one but can't seem to locate it anywhere here in Canada. Would anyone know where I could pick one up?

Well that can't be good...
