60+ year old thread.

Morning Mike, how'd you make out with the fishing? Read previous post for some advise on ice fishing...

 

Good Luck guys.

I've tried ice fishing 3 times. I'm just not a fan.

 

Good Morning Ken.

I think you should try it Carl ... couldn't hurt considering your fishing reports here.

 

Time change messed me up in the working days but now it just is a pisser to mess with all the digital clocks.

 

Morning Jim.

 

Morning Rob, Morning Jim...heres one for the oldsters...


If My Body Was a Car
This is just too funny - scary how true it is!!


If my body was a car, this is the time I would be thinking about trading it in for a newer model. I've got bumps and dents and scratches in my finish and my paint job is getting a little dull ....
But that's not the worst of it.
My headlights are out of focus and it's especially hard to see things up close
My traction is not as graceful as it once was.. I slip and slide and skid and bump into things even in the best of weather..
My whitewalls are stained with varicose veins.
It takes me hours to reach my maximum speed. My fuel rate burns inefficiently.
But here's the worst of it --

Almost every time I sneeze, cough or sputter, either my radiator leaks or my exhaust backfires!

 

You and the missus are retired Jim what do you need all the clocks for

 

Looks like a warm up here in ol' Virginny...should hit nigh 60* today & close to 70 by Tuesday...being on blood thinner puts me in the amphibian bracket, seems cold weather intensifies the issue...eligible to retire from the USPS June 6 this year, may do 1 more yr & moon walk a year until I can hop on the SS train, if it's still on track...

 

9 clocks here 8 of them are for HER

Get on SS as soon as you can Its not going to be long till it will be on a as NEEDED Basis.. (IE) you have good retirement from your job .no SS for you get out. Same if you have Ins from your last job get out of here no Medicare for you,,The dead beats need it . I heard this from the SS office in Jan. In will help cover 50mil. have not's while kicking the people who paid in out on the street

 

Well crap!

Guess the wife and I can forget ever getting any of ours back. SUMBITCH!

Wish there was a way to quit giving them a cut so we could add it to my Thrift Savings Plan or IRA. Damn it sure pisses me off to read that.

 

Here's one more! Wanna race?

 

Hey Charlie,

Congratulations to your grandson for getting his pilot certificate. Sounds like he's enjoying the experience. You and I both know that the SITUATIONAL AWARENESS that he no doubt developed in training as a pilot will also make him a better driver on the road.

We had a 14 year old at our gliding club solo a couple of months ago (you can do that in gliding and get your ticket at 16). Since he doesn't have a driver's license he carries his passport for ID. It's always encouraging to see serious young folks doing that instead of playing crazy video games, smoking weird stuff, walking around with their pants half-way down their crack, etc..

Hope your grandson sticks with it.

Tex

 

Afternoon
6 flags
Lost 1 at the hole.
One pickeral my friends dog got coming out of the hole..
Hehehehehe
Weather was great.
Clear about 25
Gust of wind once in a while.
Bacon and eggs on the ice for breakfast
Steak sandwich for lunch.
Had a blast....
Very relaxed right now.....

 

morning everyone

sounds like a fun trip Mike

congrats to your gs on getting his license ...

 

You get the ate best and relaxed the most prize; but I think the fishing trophy we're gonna have to give to the dog.

EDIT: I just realized why I'm not a fan of ice fishing ... I've been doing it all wrong I need to add bacon and eggs; then a steak sandwich lunch to the process.

 

Oh yea . Dam dog hehehehehe
There wasn't much left after about 2min.

 

Well YEA.
That's why the shack with a stove and stereo
You think a 5 gal bucket and a jigging pole is gonna do it???

You wanna have fun?
Try full contact ice fishing.
I don't play anymore but, it wasn't for wimps I can tell I that.

 

Evening all:

; Well we do keep the waxies warm by putting the container of them in our shirt pocket. Keeps them nice and comfy!

Wonder why there's more and more deadbeats? Why the heck work when you can be eating lobster tail and not have to work!

Sure; blame it on the missus! I usually set 3 alarms when I have to get up early, or drink a lot of water before going to bed.

HA: Dog ate the fish!!! I have to remember that one.
That's what it's all about! Glad you enjoyed the outing.
We couldn't do anything, and I left when they were ready to break the grill out. Even burnt hot dogs taste good while out on the ice!
We did get to see 2 coyotes run across the lake.

Same here on your gs Capt.. Must be in the blood!

 

Same tires I have, got them last November and I love them.
