~~~Ain't caught it yet, the way my soft water phishen been, this is my largest

~~Pigsticker once was a Marine and Greencoachdawg who was once a sailor were sitting in a bar arguing over which was the superior service. After a swig of beer Pigsticker said, "Well, we had Iwo Jima." Arching his eyebrows, Greencoachdawg replied, "We had the Battle of Midway." "Not entirely true", responded the Pigsticker. "Some of those pilots were Marines; in fact, Henderson Field on Guadalcanal was named after a Marine pilot killed at the Battle of Midway." Greencoachdawg responded, "Point taken." Pigsticker then said, "We Marines were born at Tun Tavern!" Greencoachdawg, nodding agreement, says, "But we had John Paul Jones." The argument continued until Greencoachdawg came up with what he thought would end the discussion. With a flourish of finality he said, "The Navy invented sex!" Pigsticke replied, "That's true, but it was the Marines who introduced it to women!"

Why did the chicken cross the road? ------------------------- BARACK OBAMA: The chicken crossed the road because it was time for a CHANGE! The chicken wanted CHANGE! JOHN MC CAIN: My friends, that chicken crossed the road because he recognized the need to engage in cooperation and dialogue with all the chickens on the other side of the road. HILLARY CLINTON: When I was First Lady, I personally helped that little chicken to cross the road. This experience makes me uniquely qualified to ensure -- right from Day One! -- that every chicken in this country gets the chance it deserves to cross the road. But then, this really isn't about me....... DR. PHIL: The problem we have here is that this chicken won't realize that he must first deal with the problem on 'THIS' side of the road before it goes after the problem on the 'OTHER SIDE' of the road. What we need to do is help him realize how stupid he's acting by not taking on his 'CURRENT' problems before adding 'NEW' problems. OPRAH: Well, I understand that the chicken is having problems, which is why he wants to cross this road so bad. So instead of having the chicken learn from his mistakes and take falls, which is a part of life, I'm going to give this chicken a car so that he can just drive across the road and not live his life like the rest of the chickens. GEORGE W. BUSH: We don't really care why the chicken crossed the road. We just want to know if the chicken is on our side of the road, or not. The chicken is either against us, or for us. There is no middle ground here. COLIN POWELL: Now to the left of the screen, you can clearly see the satellite image of the chicken crossing the road... ANDERSON COOPER - CNN: We have reason to believe there is a chicken, but we have not yet been allowed to have access to the other side of the road. JOHN KERRY: Although I voted to let the chicken cross the road, I am now against it! It was the wrong road to cross, and I was misled about the chicken's intentions. I am not for it now, and will remain against it. NANCY GRACE: That chicken crossed the road because he's GUILTY! You can see it in his eyes and the way he walks. PAT BUCHANAN: To steal the job of a decent, hardworking American. MARTHA STEWART: No one called me to warn me which way that chicken was going. I had a standing order at the Farmer's Market to sell my eggs when the price dropped to a certain level. No little bird gave me any insider information. DR SEUSS: Did the chicken cross the road? Did he cross it with a toad? Yes, the chicken crossed the road, but why it crossed I've not been told. ERNEST HEMINGWAY: To die in the rain. Alone. GRANDPA: In my day we didn't ask why the chicken crossed the road. Somebody told us the chicken crossed the road, and that was good enough. BARBARA WALTERS: Isn't that interesting? In a few moments, we will be listening to the chicken tell, for the first time, the heart warming story of how it experienced a serious case of molting, and went on to accomplish its life long dream of crossing the road. ARISTOTLE: It is the nature of chickens to cross the road. JOHN LENNON: Imagine all the chickens in the world crossing roads together, in peace. ALBERT EINSTEIN: Did the chicken really cross the road, or did the road move beneath the chicken? BILL CLINTON: I did not cross the road with THAT chicken. What is your definition of chicken? AL GORE: I invented the chicken! COLONEL SANDERS: Did I miss one? DICK CHENEY: Where's my gun? AL SHARPTON: Why are all the chickens white? We need some black chickens

~~~~The War between the us Northerners and you Yankee Rebs, has just re-begun again, "Nanuk get my Dog sled ready were goan pharten, down South"

~~Usual partner has to work 2 out of 3 days this weekend, looks like Sunday we"ll be out keeping an eye on the weather, could be on Rice for eyes, or Simcoe for Whities, or maybe Sparrow for Mr Pike

~~~Went to Greencoachdawg's Church, and thet seem they hasd a problem, the finance committee refuses to provide funds for the purchase of a chandelier because none of the members knows how to play one. And when Greencoachdawg learn that Jesus fed the 5000, he wanted to know, whether the two fish were bass or catfish, and what bait was used to catch 'em. When the pastor says, "I'd like to ask Bubba to help take up the offering," five guys and two women stand up. And did you know... opening day of deer season is recognized as an official church holiday. Another member of the church requests to be buried in his 4-wheel-drive truck because "It ain't never been in a hole it couldn't get out of." Their choir is known as the "OK Chorale". There is over 500 members in the congregation , Strange since there's are only seven last names in the church directory. Baptism is referred to as "branding". Also the high notes on the organ set the dogs on the floor to howling. I asked Greencoachdawg what "rapture" is, and he said it happens when you lift something too heavy. I thought it was quaint that the baptismal pool is a #2 galvanized washtub. He told me that the choir robes were donated by (and embroidered with the logo from) Billy Bob's Barbecue. He donated the collection plates from his '56 Chevy hub caps They don't have a Bell, you are called to service by a duck call Funny seeing the minister and his wife drive matching pickup trucks. Had some of the communion wine, it's Boone's Farm "Tickled Pink". One of the Commanments "Thou shalt not covet" applies to hunting dogs, too. And as I was leaving I hear Greencoachdawg give the final words of the benediction are, "Y'all come back now Ya Hear!"

~~~~Quite simple, I don't drive, got the boat, and trailer, but need partner with a vehicle to tow it, and the partner I have now got himself a job, and has bought his own boat.But I'll be out on Sunday, 2 of the 2 days of the long weekend

In 2009 the government will start locking up all the mentally ill. I started crying when I thought of Greencoachdawg Run little buddy, run.

~~~~For the past 2 weeks I've been walking to work from Union Station, about 7 blocks and back in the afternoon, so the strike isn't going to effect me getting to and from work, except that my releif has to be transported by our Co. Patrol Officers, along with alot of other Security Officers.

~~~Wish I had seen this sooner, both regular partners are working "Drat"

~~~Let see the batteries are charged, some ice phishen gear to put away just might get out Sunday, if rain hold off. Now just have phind someone in my area with a vehicle with a 2" ball.

~~~AAAAH another great report from the North Country, great to know you have a indoor Throne Room

~~~About 45min. N. of North Bay off hwy 11 Lake Wickstead, flows into the Martin River chain. Plenty of pike, and Walleyes, easy launch area, but lake known for eating props, camping sites are great find an island with a point, and there will be a camp site near by, washrooms are two logs side by each, bring lots of TP. No where to buy gas on the lake anything else. Nearest store up at Martin River Lodge, has gas, food, and LCBO Lic. Turn right at Martin Lake Road, cross 2nd. bridge, watch for trail leading off on your left follow it up river, a wee bit bumpy, but turns into a great parking area, and launch. I'm usually there also week after the long weekend

~~~Thanks for the Tips, if you can keep us posted on water temps.

~~~I call them Bugle Trouts, wish I could get out midweek

~~~My signature stands as a warning~~~I live up to mine

~~~Drat was hopen to get down there this Sat. lauching at Lewingston, keep reports coming, thanks bud

~~~What you broke a rod, heck be like us just get a roll of the Handie-Man Friend and tape it up, it'll be as new, and I hope that sun burn hurts

~~His sweetie says to him, "Let's go upstairs and make love," and he answered, "Honey, I can't do both!" ~~A friend of his compliment him on his new alligator shoes, problem was he was barefoot. ~~His Honey Dressed Provocatively to catch his fancy and his pacemaker opens the garage door. ~~He don't care where his spouse goes, just as long as he don't have to go along. ~~He is cautioned to slow down by the doctor instead of by the police. ~~Getting a little action" to him means, "He didn't need to take any fiber today." ~~Getting lucky" means he found his car in the parking lot. ~~An "all nighter" means not getting up to pee!

~~~Buddy has a trailer at West Lake, say I can crash there, for the opener.

~~~I've been running the same Tracker since 98, I've got a 16.5' VPro Tracker with 40hp Force, and is just now showing her age. I phish all the Kawarthas, east down to BOQ, and this spring heading down to Detroit River, and Lake St. Clair for some Walleyes, and when the ice moves off shore I'll be out on Simcoe.chasen Perch. Not afraid to take her any where, love rough water.

~~~Day starts at 4 with Slug picking me up, and a 3 hour drive later, with a lot of these and lets not forget these, what a ride it was, felt like a bobble head. We're at the lake. With 2"of crusted snow, we set up, and bump, dam missed him, oh well it's early yet, by 9 still no phish, and Walleyedreamer, comes around the corner, followed by his troop, so after a quick "How you do How you do" WD is poppen holes here and there and over there, and as we all got settle"Phish On" Great the phish are here, then Slug gets a hit, and like last week loses it Dam here we go again, then his other rod gets a hit, and with Karol, help, he has one in the hand, but Karol gave him the thumbs down so back it went Well thing sloooowwwed riiiggghhhtt doooowwwnnn, so Slug, and Wd decide to head over to the other side of the bay, where WD always catches phish,so away they go and the troop head out with them, while I stayed put. I had at one time 3 hits in a row losing 2 very nice Trouts, and a small one, had a very friendly Lab come over to say hi, tried to steal my phish, and his owner came over and I said to him "Nice trick you taught him, but go catch your own". After about 1.5 hrs. the guys return carrying 2 small Lakers, and decide to head home, about 30 min. later I get a light tap, then Slug get a hit, and loses it then my rod next to him get a hit and he's all over it and lands this nice Laker Got quiet for a while some local came out for a walk Well about 2:30 we decide to pack it in, so we bid a sad farewell to another couple of locals who help clean up, for us. And we headed off the lake, and again back up the hill for the last time this winter We got to get a sled. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Oh yea we spotted this guy south bound on 11 What dose he know that we don't

~~~Putting together a M&G at the Rock & Reel on April 5/08 in Oshawa, it's a Saturday night, and what could be better then sharen a Drink in a place that has a Bar, and Tackle Shop combined. They have expanded, so there will be more gear to look over and argue about as to what to buy and why you just have to have it. Hope some of you guys can make it and meet some new, and old buds
