I quit three times yesterday. Probably will quit a couple more times today.

Funny you should mention a tie for every team. I own Larry Nicholas's Pac 10 ten pack, a framed collection of ten flies with those school colors. Last time I saw him in Albany he said he was going to do a Pac 12 twelve pack. Don't know if he ever did. The flies in the collection are...

I watched my nephew land a nice Steelhead on the D using this very pattern. Coincidentally his name is Brad. Nice tie.

OK, now I understand. I get one or two emails that I spam out almost on a daily basis. I wonder is this new AI crap is going to make things even scarier. Being an old timer (I never thought I'd ever say that) and a techno dinosaur I thing sometimes it should be called artificial ignorance.

I guess I need an education here. I have Netflix and get emails all the time which I normally delete without opening. But this sounds like they have a credit card? Or a membership card for some reason? Most of the emails I get are titled "something new for you" which I gather is some...

Back in the day we had an Athletic director named Leo Harris who was a personal friend of Walt Disney. Walt agreed to let Oregon model their Duck after Donald. Nowadays Oregon pays a portion of the proceeds of each item with the Duck logo on merchandise. I've never heard of any agreement...

Well that's two years in a row we've had a great year followed by a bad beating in the playoffs. Maybe 3rd time will be the charm. According to common folklore we have all sorts of money so we should be back. Still proudly wearing my Duck shirt! GO DUCKS !!

I think the stellar play was the Duck's defense. Trying to give credit where credit is due. Hopefully it will be stellar again against Indiana who is favored in this upcoming game. GO DUCKS !

The Red Raiders scored 34 against BYU to win the big 12. They scored in the 30's and 40's against every team on their schedule with the exception of Arizona St. So why did they get shutout in the Orange bowl? Sure as hell wasn't because of QB issues.

I'm going to enjoy my bowl of oranges, then go get a bowl full of peaches. A good defensive battle. A shutout against a good Texas Tech team was outstanding. I was a little miffed when we tried 4th and short plays when an easy 3 was available. I was bragging up our field goal kicker...

And if we win this one I'll have to go back to store and buy a bowlful of peaches ! Next game will be the Peach Bowl. GO DUCKS !

I have a bowl of oranges sitting on the table. GO DUCKS !!

My daughter in law and her dad went to Michigan. Before he passed he told me of his good old days fly fishing the Pere Marquette and other rivers in Michigan. He said it was a sport for young people but accepted an invitation to fly fish the hex hatch with me on a local lake. He hadn't...

GO BLUE !

Listening to Christmas music featuring my two old favorite singers, Gene Autrey and Jimmy Durante. Merry Christmas All !!

Then there's that old story about Charlie golfing as part of a foursome. He had a heart attack and died on the 4th hole and his partners said the rest of the game was slowed cuz it was hit the ball and drag Charlie, hit the ball and drag Charlie.

seems to me that somewhere on this forum on saw the phrase "dirtbag fishing". The originator of that line must be the super Elitist !

While reading these posts I suddenly remembered something that was happening the last couple of years. As I was putting my pontoon in the back of my truck I would hear another angler say, Would you like some help? I guess I was starting to look older than I felt. A couple of times I...

A year ago I posted a sad tale of my falling and fracturing my hip and femur. Had just left the boat launch and luckily had a fishing buddy to take me to the hospital. After surgery, the doc said recovery would be 6 mos to a year. A year was more accurate. My best friend and fishing...
