Pardon me for jumpin in here, but you guys evidently try to scare

Like it or not, the history of this group is a little bit off your
goals for this group.

By mutual consent of those who have been participating for 10 years
or so, any topic likely to come up during a fly fishing outing is
fair game here.

Check out http://www.cs.nmsu.edu/~jcook/ROFF/ for some details.

This is the way this group has been for ten years. If you don't like
it, you can a) try to change it, or b) go participate in some of the
dozens of other flyfishing discussion groups. One or two will surely
be to your liking.

If you opt for "a", we're all waiting to see your stellar
contributions. ("Stellar", by the way, means "outstanding; like a
star"). Of course, if this is the route you take, be aware that
those
who have actively contributed for a decade might draw the opinion
that you haven't earned the right to say word one about what goes
on here.

I owe an [censored] to The Veterans of this News Group,
Here it is I do [censored], I admit I was wrong by trying to Protect
My New Friend when he did'nt need to be.
I read the rules of the Banter 10-3-05 and Did'nt realize you guys are
friends also. Doesn't sound like it by the way you speak to one
another,
I will stay out of ALL conversations,unless Spoken to first.

Now, what fun is THAT going to be? ;-)

Now I realize what It means to Insert Foot.
TimJ, I thought someone was Attacking You

Aw, shoot. These here boys are in attack mode most of the time. The good
news is they couldn't hit the broad side of a barn.

and acouple of others and I was only trying to Protect

While I appreciate the sentiment, no protection is needed. I have my
super deflector shield and my decoder ring, but even those are rarely
needed (see above.) Besides, you don't know me except through the swap
and I could be a real flaming asshole. I'm not, but I could be.

Please [censored] Me. IT Will NOT Happen
Again.
It would be comforting to see Peace in this old World,
Again, I [censored] for causing Problems in this Group.

Problems? We don gots no steenkin problems. Well, except for that
apology thingy. Don't ever, EVER, *NEVER* apologize on roff. It's just
not done. ;-)

Uh, Why? That'd be ridiculous.

Like we haven't all been there, done that, and the t-shirt was dirty.

Yep. Don't get over-excited on someone else's behalf on here until
you know if they're being roasted or kidded and how serious it is.

It would be comforting to see Peace in this old World,

Yah, shure. But so far life doesn't seem to have provided much of it,
except a bit for Americans in the 50s and early 60s. And Switzerland
for a couple of centuries.

Again, I Appologize for causing Problems in this Group.

We don't think of them as problems. We think of them as
opportunities. One way or another.

Where do I stand? Why after surviving four years in Vietnam in the
military and as a civilian,etc, etc etc but you are not interested in
that, I STAND for NOT posting political or ideological bull**** on a
group ostensibly dedicated to flyfishing! CLEAR?

....and a fine lot of good that post will do you...I've been bitching about
these effing libs taking over this usenet group with their trash for years
now, but it got me zippo. Let's face it David, we're surrounded and there
ain't a fecking thing we can do about it. Wait, there is one thing I did
that helps some...killfile the worst offenders. I was gonna killfile
Fortenberry as the leading offender, but his erudite and sometines humorous
posts would be missed, so I continue to suffer his political bull****. (who
loves ya Kenny?) ;-)

Nice try, but if you want something other than Budweiser
or Laphroaig when we go fishing you're gonna have to bring
your own damn booze. ;-)


....OK Kenny, I'll still share my baloney and onion sandwiches with you. ;-)
