They were getting 50 bucks apiece for those damn things ?!?
And some of you guys were actually buying them !?!!!!

The mind boggles.

And here's another thing that makes absolutely no sense to me.
How long has Qaddafi been the head despot in charge of Libya ?
So why is he still a Colonel ? Don't you think it's high time
he promoted himself to Maitre D' or something ?

Jeez, I can remember when women used to think he was hot and there were
people trying to hawk his "Little Green Book" ( inspired by the Maoists
Little Red Book, I believe) on the street corners of Madison. It sounds
pretty much like he's now decided being a Maitre D' at the International
House of Bushcakes isn't such a bad position.

It's no secret I am a fan of a fairly high profile brand. But I recently
cast with several rods from the cabelas range and have to say, on a value
for money basis, pretty damn hard to beat!

Ever notice how these fans of the high-priced
stuff always have to qualify their approval for
anything that costs less than an arm & a leg
one's first newborn ?


Yeah, I know exactly what you mean. I like my cheap ass little Okuma Sierra
just fine.......um.....well, o.k., it ain't no Loop.......
