O.K. here you go lawyer Mike Slocumb Now name the famous Canadian in the right hand corner. Don't get me wrong I hate Lawyers in my world. Except Marty he is my hero

If you don't have the accident documented then in the eyes of the law it did not happen. It is the only way to cover your butt in this instance. If you want to get the truck fixed then it is the only way that assures you will be compensated for the accident. So let's say you decide to go over and tell him it is $400.00 to fix the truck and he pays you the money. Case one you might find that the damage is more, and it has cracked the frame which qualifies the vehicle to be totaled. To bad for you because you by accepting his money have entered into a contract that states by your acceptance that his liability is $400.00 in total. Legally you have no further right to bring judgement on him. Case two you take the money and put it in your pocket because it is a not worth fixing. You continue to live across the street from this neighbor who everyday sees that you are not going to fix the truck... that will not make him a pleasant neighbor I am sure. Further let's say he is down right miffed and decides to file a suit against you for you guessed it fraud for taking money under false pretenses. Their is no difference from defrauding an insurance company with this action as doing it to a citizen, both can win in court. This is something that the average person does not consider but is something that employers have to get advise on to keep their company safe. Does this fit every application? No not really and in this case it could be a moot issue but if it isn't I would feel bad if I didn't give someone the advise that had the least possibility of repercussions. Art

Accepting a Deal will come back to haunt you. If you are going to get it repaired then report it and get the estimate etc. If you decide to make a deal then you are getting money under false pretenses which is also a crime. Art

Right now as we type I am in the kitchen cooking the stuffing and the sweet potatoes for a trip over to Joes house. Thanks to all also for the well wishes and we all have a lot to be thankful for and one that is at the top of my list are my friends here at OFC. Art

okuma reels are what I use for the big Cats down here I have nothing but good to say for the reels. I have not had the line counting series though so I can't speak for their reliability of that part. Art

To warm to sit in the stand this weekend were in the 70's F. Art

I have a track mounted on the side from the factory on a Nissan Titan. I cut 2 sheets of plywood that goes from track to track and then lock the tailgate. If you use tongue and groove subflooring and then put pipe foam tube on the back by the tailgate it is %95 waterproof. Art

Usually it is because someone has not paid attention to the rules. If a post starts to go in a combative direction it also will be removed.If we get valid complaints we will also remove it. Things are decided on a case by case as they apply to the rules. Anyone who participates here on the forum has read and agreed to what our rules are if after you have decided that this is a great place but you don't like or don't want to abide by the rules it is usually a fast road to trouble. The moderators/owners have though long and worked hard on the formula that makes this board operate smoothly. After 10 plus years running the members have voted and we have one the best board on the internet IMHO. My mistake thanks for the correction folks Art

As a great man once said to me " If you're a tailor and your name is Hitler..there's a good chance you'll never find a job in the schmata industry. Art

A name can make you or break you in life. Nice post and a much better choice on a name. I imagine you are a gamer as well as a good fisherman. Thanks Art

Well done to all for their help achieving this staggering number. I am happy to be around to help us continue our growth and am happy to meet all of my new friends. Art

No I agree Brian we have DNR and they are stretched thin however if they get a few calls from one area they will change up their routine and send a boat out to check the area. I even had DNR on my boat last year where they were posing as fisherman and then radioing a boat hidden in a cove near by. We caught more fisherman than fish that day. Art

This is when the fisherman can help and call the MNR hotline and invite them out for a day of fundraising. Art

Happy Birthday Lew and many more to you buddy. Art

Since it is out there already get a toilet tank "Tank to bowl bolt set" it comes with the flat washers, rubber washers, bolts and nuts ready to go. Just cut the bolts off at the length you want. You can find this at Home Depot or any local plumbing section. Art

I think a great name I have heard is Dee O Gee. Have a good life with the new puppy. Art

If the fish are not biting I have found a strange coincidence between being distracted by a rats nest in the reel to hooking up on a fish. Art

How much spam are you going to put out for LLoyd Terry I'm sure he wants a day off sometime... LOL

Here is a link to the Colortune system. Make sure you get the correct thread size for the application or you will be buying an adapter. This unit is very simple and takes all of the guess work out of tuning your air flow mixture. color tune link Art

Now just get a color Tune Plug and you can adjust jets and tune the air fuel mixture to a bright blue flame front inside the cylinder. Then it is off to the race track... Glad it worked for you. Art

Happy birthday Betty now tell Brian to get in the kitchen and bake you a cake. Art

Here is a link to what I am refering to. You can find a better price I am sure but this is the unit I use. manometer ocean pro Art

Don't forget the inline restricter between the carburetors pulse hose and the liquid. If you have to much suction then they will draw the fluid into the carb and will pulse as the valves open and close. Art

Don't get me wrong GPS has lots of uses... It has the ability to get you back to an area that you visited last season and forgot that you caught fish their. It will allow you to troll the same line that you did repeating each pass thru the point you found. It allows you to plot a circuit to fish thru the day. What it can't do is get you to the pinpoint area due to physics. You are located by the triangulation of your position from space from up to 9 points. The closer or less amount of points the less accurate it is. The bright side is they can get you within 10ft most of the time all for around $500.00 with no monthly fee. What unit is best is up to what unit you read comfortable. I personalty after reading what does what and spending long hours on the water found that Lowrance reads the way that I understand the information and the controls it has to offer. It will take long hours of reading the information on the screen on the water and looking at the manual before you will even start to comprehend all of the features the little black box offers. To call the information that it does give you valueless is incorrect it is actually invaluable to making a flat sheet of water rich with navigation aids, past memories, and the ability to mark it anytime you want.
