Look guys, I will sell these in a week or so, so I really don't need any
of you to buy them to move them out of here, these are some left overs from the Classic, that happened to come home with me :-) (we didn't even know we had them, we thought we had sold them all, this box got misplaced :-) I went into each kit and added 17 more bungees, When these are gone, I personally will no longer be selling any from here, they will have to be ordered from Mojo. I guess you could call this post spam, (you net cops flame away, I won't fight back) but I had no other method to let my friends on the group know I had them. There will be no other offers from me on any group, it was just a special deal, and I wanted y'all to have shot at them first, I just set up the site, and I get hundreds of visitors a day to my web site, I'm sure they won't last long, and don't care if they do. I asked Mojo if I could give them away,, they said no, and they want the money from the sales, at least I got the price down on them. If interested just click the wiggle rig link from my site, and you will see the deal I was using this rig Tuesday when I caught all those bass, and everyone else was skunked, I was using the Tiny flukes from Zoom, mostly, but a large fluke was used when I hooked that hog, I had two of them rigged 18 inches apart, working the lures about a min. in one spot, (When I was sight fishing the beds, I just left it there working it until it got bit) then moving about 7 or 8 feet and working them again. I was using a 1 inch rapid rod bounce keeping tension on the line -- Rodney Long, Inventor of the Mojo SpecTastic "WIGGLE" rig, SpecTastic Thread, Nutri Shield insect repellent. ,Stand Out Hooks ,Stand Out Lures, Mojo's Rock Hopper & Rig Saver weights, and the EZKnot http://www.ezknot.com |

snip I guess you could call this post spam, ... Do you think ? Here's a suggestion, the next time you feel inclined to SPAM a non-commercial Usenet newsgroup send email instead. Send the email to those folks who you know won't mind your message and tell them to pass it along to their friends who feel the same. Just don't do it here. You have no idea what kind of Pandora's box you'll open if SPAM becomes acceptable. I won't let it slide, I will bitch about it here and if that doesn't stop it I will complain to your ISP. The group let the SPAM you just had to share slide without comment and this is what happened. You've had your freebie, now stop it out. -- Ken Fortenberry P.S. Congrats on the endorsements. |

Your right, I should never had given these guys a chance at the deal, I sure don't "need" their business to survive, I mean it's not worth the lashing ,, don't worry it won't happen again, as this is the last time "I" will be selling anything "PERIOD" from my web site, or anywhere else, as fast as these are selling already from my web site, they will be gone fast. To tell you the truth I'm glad I'm out of the retail business, then I can talk all I want on news groups, about the way I fish, maybe help others kick some butt, and have a better time on the water. I am the "expert" in this "method" of fishing, and I can teach others how to get the most out of it. Since I will no longer be "selling" anything, no one can claim it's spam. -- Rodney Long, Inventor of the Mojo SpecTastic "WIGGLE" rig, SpecTastic Thread, Nutri Shield insect repellent. ,Stand Out Hooks ,Stand Out Lures, Mojo's Rock Hopper & Rig Saver weights, and the EZKnot http://www.ezknot.com |

There is a fine line between a commercial and a testimonial but I have no doubt that you'll push it right up to the line and beyond until someone calls you on it. ;-) -- Ken Fortenberry |

The only difference is the people get to hear from the "real" expert on using the rig. I have over 2,000 hours, (and over 4,000 fish caught) experience using the Wiggle rig. I can make lures do things most fishermen only dream about, I want to share that knowledge, and finally I will be able to on news groups, people can call me all they want to on it, according to my ISP, that is not spamming. Spamming is mutable cross posting and mutable emails for profit, no spammer would "waste" his time writing single emails, or "on topic" post, and answering "on topic" questions in news groups, there is not enough profit in it. -- Rodney Long, Inventor of the Mojo SpecTastic "WIGGLE" rig, SpecTastic Thread, Nutri Shield insect repellent. ,Stand Out Hooks ,Stand Out Lures, Mojo's Rock Hopper & Rig Saver weights, and the EZKnot http://www.ezknot.com |

You realize that you're posting all this on a binary newsgroup devoted to fishing pictures ? Hardly an appropriate venue for commercials. -- Ken Fortenberry |

1-Highlight the offensive posting.
2-On the "message" tab, click "block sender". A pop-up will ask if you wish to remove all of the sender's posts from display; clicking yes will remove those posts. In either case, the sender's new posts will no longer appear. Posts are blocked by posting address. Some posters may change posting addys to avoid filters, merely repeat the process (1-2) for new addresses. __________________ *** To REMOVE a poster from a kill-file, click tools/ message rules/ blocked senders list and highlight that poster, then click "remove". |
