so listen to me now and hear me later!

Just got the stuff I ordered for my pathetic Republican brother. I have become very
fond of the compact cheap clear plastic fly boxes (they are very small, light and you
can see your flies without having to open the box), so I ordered 6 of those for him.
I also ordered two spools (30 yds ea.) of Rio 7X Fluorocarbon, one for him, one for
me. By weight, that stuff is more valuable than gold, I'd bet! They backordered $52
worth of leader materials, but sent the rest of the order.

The Ibis rod seems nice enough, but was made in China, so I suspect that it is about
as good as a KPOS. I pieced it together--7' 6", 4 wt., 4- pc travel rod. There are
no alignment dots, so getting the guides aligned is done by eyeing down the rods
length. Of course, my Sage 379 VPS-Lite lacks the alignment dots and cost about $100
more. I will take it out this weekend, weather permitting, for a test run.

Well, this is quite a relief. All these years I've thought that Patty Duke,
Paula Prentiss, Ursula Andress, Ellen Green, Jessica Lang, Mary Steenbergen
and various others just didn't like me......you know, something personal.
Turns out we just didn't have alignment dots!

Wolfgang
um.......anybody know of a good aftermarket source?

I always thought the beauty of male/female sexual attraction was that we
(most of us) *did* come with alignment dots. Of course, some folks play
connect the dots just any ol' which way.
