Still alive

Joe, The legends on this board probably fish like once a year each, so
don't worry about it. ; -)

Amen, brother. I haven't fished since September, and I won't until
January at the San Juan, which I'm really looking forward to. Bruiser,
can you tie a half dozen chamois worms for me? I can't seem to get them
right. :-) It's my most productive pattern on the San Juan, even if it
does only amount to one small step above bait fishing.

Good to hear from you, Joe. I'm curious: Which favorite shop in
Baltimore went out of business?

Joe Bruce at the Fishermans Edge in Catonsville decided to call it quits. I
didn't hear any details as to why.

Too bad. When I was growing up in Northeast Baltimore I was always
partial to Set's Sport Shop in Towson. I see that they're still in
business. It wasn't exactly a flyfishing place, but I wasn't an
intolerant flyfishing snob at the time. :-)

I'll tie you as many Chamois's as you want! Willi's are better though
(although I'm thinking it has something to do with the operator).

....and I'll add to the chorus of "you are missed" Joe. I still remember our
little conclave on the Rappahannock. I remember you as a fine gentleman and
a pleasure to talk with. Right at this moment you probably aren't fishing
any less than most of us. :-( Stick around anyway.

It has been nearly 20 months since I departed without farewell or
explanation from this forum. Through my absence, I have missed the
company of my friends here as well as the peace of the sport itself. I
knew that sooner or later, I'd be back to say hello; and a chance
meeting with a ROFFian on another newsgroup reminded me that time was
overdue.

Hi Joe,
Glad to see you at least lurking around . . .as I do.

Good to hear from you. Be well and I want to see pictures of that
kayak.

Good to "see" ya, Joe !!

Glad to hear you're reasonably well, and that's too bad
about your favorite 8wt.

As for leaving roff because you don't fly fish, that's
like not drinking because you quit brewing your own.
Hell, I haven't wet a line in a coon's age so **** man,
don't be a stranger around here.

You don't need any justification here, boyo. Drop in anytime you feel
like it. On any subject.

Glad to hear you're well.
