Sorry folks but even if we close it down any invasive species that has no natural enemies will get into the surrounding water ways. If you look at it the small mouth bass was termed an invasive species, along with the gobies that would kill the system, The carmerans will deplete the feeder fish and the carp will destroy the habitate. Guess what so far the lakes have been able to weather all of the crap we have done to it with out failing. I am not saying that it is good that we test the eco system here but to say it is the because the USA is lazy and doesnt give a damn is crap and it is inflammatory in the least. This thread is in poor taste and has no direction to go but down. Art

Why are all of the nice people offering me the machine without the operator??? I rechecked the forcast and it has gone up to 30Inches for now..... Art

If you find the quote he might give you tickets to the boat show. Blackmail is a powerful tool. It really is a quote and it is less than 7 days old. Art

LOL.. ok.. consider my chain yanked.... and I didnt even know I had a chain!! Quote from our fearless leader in another thread. Signed Art the instigator :P :P

Yea poor old left out me... Actually this is how we vacation every year. 2/3 of the farm go on vacation and then next month Mom and Pops and my wife and I go next month it makes it easier to take care of the animals. Since it is my truck and my boat that is going it is more like I am taking JOE to Lak Air but since yall are lookin forward to us visitin I guess he gets to come along. Art Don't worry Wayne "Rocket" and all of the other goats are warm,dry and well fed....

O.K. I am a member wheres the CATFISH header. Art

Well the good news is we have a decent sized tractor with a bucket and blade so I will survive fine. The bad news is Daplumma and Bec's with Mom and Pops are all sitting on the beach in Costa Rica laughing at me I am sure. I'm off to get some extra fuel for the tractor before it starts that nasty white stuff falling from the sky. Art

Well the storm is almost here and the forcast is set for 18" to 24" before it is all over with. It seems it would be rain except for Canadas generous donation of the cold air.... So in the same spirit that you gave the cold air to us. We ( The Southern Contingency) Have officially decided to not send any Warm air up North till you stop your unwanted cold air attack... Feel free to Email this note to all of your friends since we are working on a limited budget here at the Contingency Thank you for your attention to this note. Leader of the Southern Contingency Art

If you add it I will show you what a real catfish is. Art

your going to go blind if you keep tiein things that small. I will say though that I thought the thread work on your rods was tedious and very exact but your flies are even more proof of your skills. Art

:whistling: :whistling: so many things to type.... but this is a family site..... Art

Hey /dawg you in chat yet??? :P Art

Sorry I cant join till I have a category for CATFISH the forgotten HERO of the waters..... Art

I was right with you till the Testes thing. Art

Being so far away I won't be able to join in on the Tyler Event like I would like too. The online auctions while fun it seems in the past they had a few bad elements that Our fearless leader begrudgingly had to bring to light. So I figured it was a good way to help a cause that I have helped in the past. So yes I will send my almost worthless American dollars to Canada before they run out of any value. The good news is every time one of them blood sucking mosquitoes goes to bite me I will show her how I had one of her sisters mounted that should slow the buggers down. Art

To Tylers Parents Chris (Spiel) was kind enough to tie a special fly for me and would not take payment so I decided to send it to you all in his name. Please send me a paypal notice for $50.00 to [email protected] If that is not possible send me an address that I can mail a check to. Art

Wow thats a great job Chris. I will accept it as a gift if you deliver it to Lak Air this year. Actually I will go one better $50.00 has been donated in your name to the Tyler Foundation. Art

Actually #2 is don't bite your fingernails. You can use your putty knife as a spoon after you clean it. Art the plumber

Dawg that is fine just let me know as soon as you can so I can Tell Leslie and Kevin what plan we want Coonass is actually an acceptable in public nickname for Cajuns...like Cajun was not funny enough... Thats to bad Lew I will miss you and look foward to our next fishing trip. Chris nasty cough you got their it looks like a bad case of Fishin flu in June. For all the other we sure can't wait to see all of the old and the new that show up at this G2G. Art

Dawg have you been drinkin at 4:24 in the afternoon? Everyone knows Lowrance is the king of the universe in the /sonar world..... Let the fight begin ..... O shoot did I type that out loud ? o well to late now..... Art

Hey Lew As you know I am a plumber so I install quite a few countertops and get to see them a few years later as I visit the houses for other plumbing issues. I am not against natural stones but I have found if you can find a pattern you like in the solid Dupont materials then they have my vote hands down. The weight of the natural stones sometimes means the cabinets need to be reinforced (not a big deal but something to ask the installer about). Islands that have overhangs so you can put a chair under are not well supported and will find any pressure cracks in natural stone. The corners on stone unless rounded are tough on the hips when you run into them. While Corian is not any softer the ability to work an edge is easier and cheaper. The seams are the weakest point in naturals and are dictated by the size of the stone but also the weight of the stone so you will have more exposed joints in the project. The solid surfaces Dupont use the same resin they are made of to make the joints so you have no visible lines and they are as strong as the top. Any of your average damage that is done with a knife cut or other can usually be sanded/buffed out the damage to stone is permanent unless you have it professionally buffed out. The ability of naturals and Corian to resist damage is greater than the effort it takes to damage the laminate tops. Hope this all helps and good luck on your choices. Art

soooo can you tie me a mosquito? I need it to lure the real ones away from my ass while I am up North this summer. art

Dawg you in here yet?? Sure is quiet tonight feels like I am the only one in here. Art

both good choices but I choose the Nissan because I have a Titan and they have been quick to make sure I am happy on any issues and recalls they have. Both minimum. Art

send me a p.m. for my next step bud. Art
