    USPS inefficiency with a simple shipment

    A couple signs of advanced societies: having a postal service and public libraries. Modern technology is closing the gap, but it will probably be a cold day in hell when for profit delivery services can match rural, last mile destinations.

    USPS inefficiency with a simple shipment

    A certain president appointed the Postmaster General specifically to fvck up the postal system with one objective being that mailed in ballots wouldn't arrive in time to be counted. Maybe other delays are just unintended consequences of the intention to fvck things up.

    NFR RIP Capt Insano Emeritis

    Wow! Didn't see this coming as I just got back to civilization after a few days in the wilderness. I've messaged with Skip about gardening and other things and recently encouraged him to join us at the Mayfield swap & shop. That was just before he died. I was going to check in with him about...

    I've spoken with Cindy at Mike's Reel Repair about an issue with a spool for my Hardy St. Andrew, so I would suggest contacting them.

    I have a single burner Iwatani stove, and I also have a pancake griddle that covers two burners.

    BC Licensing

    Yeah, I discovered that my old BC angler number is now irrelevant. Took me several tries, but finally got my BCeID number that I needed for my Dean application.

    SFR Losing Interest

    Interests change. Maybe that's what's happening with you. I have always wanted to and liked to fish since I was 5 years old, and I don't see that changing for me. What I noticed 40-some years ago while I was doing a house remodel and addition is that the less often I fished, the less I felt a...

    It's hard to set up a tent on slickrock. Impossible to pound in any stakes.

    Indicator fishing / Stillwater

    I can cast a dry fly and stare at it waiting for the eat, so it's not much different to stare at an indicator waiting for it to move.

    That cartoon of rattlesnakes is disturbing. I'll be cowboy camping in the Utah desert in a few days, and that "what if" thought sometimes creeps into my mind.

    Taking Strangers Fishing, Yay or Nay?

    It's OK to talk to oneself. You're probably a fairly attentive listener. Maybe OK even to begin arguing with yourself. However, if you find that you're losing the argument, better seek professional help.

    Occupy Skagit, on steroids.

    If WDFW has become irrelevant in regards to recreational fishing in anadromous streams, how are the governor and legislators any more relevant? I intend to pay them no mind.

    Life getting in the way of fishing... sigh

    I had a dream the night before my wedding. I was fishing on the Toutle River on my wedding day, and I was casting at two summer runs I could see holding near a large boulder. I kept casting, certain that if I got it just right, one of the fish would hit, and I was beginning to sweat that I...
