    Darn Tom! Pretty soon you will need straps on your bed like the tin cans had, or some side guards!
    Don't look good, hope there aren't any broken.

    We went up to the river last night, I caught 5 stripers and my buddy caught 1 legal walleye around 20"s, I still don't have a legal walleye this year! :annoyed:
    On top of that, the jet wouldn't start, so we had to use the trolling motor to get where we wanted to go and back! :annoyed: :annoyed:
    Looked up some info. on the puter and found where the fuses are located, checked them and found a blown one. That's the easy part, if something is wrong that would cause that fuse to blow again that could be a whole lot harder to find! :fingerscrossed:
    The good part is; now I have spare fuses on the boat and know where to look if it were to happen again.

    Motor and water don't mix. Double check all your plug In Connectors for water and your switches also.
    What fuse was it for ??.

    Was just reading about a Ford F-450 pick up truck that lists for $94,455 with all the options! :eek: Looks like the race is on for the first $100,000 pick up truck, they are getting close!

    You beat me to it Mike! Yes, how's the foot doing Tom?

    Darn, muzzle loader season is open and I'm not going out, not going out much for archery either, still too warm here and just don't feel like hunting.

    Now there should be a big buck in that picture, just out of range! LOL
    Good luck Mike, that 200lb. patch is there waiting for you, I got up at 4:30 this morning, took a leak, and went back to bed! :facepalm:
    I called my one buddy last night, he didn't even realize that muzzle loader season opened on Sat., and he hunts with one! :facepalm::facepalm:

    Thanks guys. The foot is doing better. My primary care physician should have called me back on Friday afternoon. Called and left messages twice today with no call back. To say I am pissed is an understatement. My results of Friday's xray will be posted in my Community Radiology website this Wednesday. I need to find a new GP.

    I am walking better but there is still pain. The black & blue and swelling seems to be going down. Beginning to think it is jut a sprain. Still I am staying off the foot as much as possible.

    Doctors have nearly been turned into automatons by the huge corporatization of medicine. Some of them stopped caring. More to the point they got surrounded by office staff who serve 10, 25, 40 doctors. Stuff happens. I still like my guy but at the same time I know he is not a happy camper. I can sympathize.

    Glad to hear the foot is a little better Tom. Hope it isn't broken. Doctors are being pushed to see more patients in less time (average time doctors should spend per patient here is 19 minutes) so the hospitals can bring in more money :eek:. It's all about the bottom line and if you can find a good GP, be thankful.
    Was upstate over the weekend. Friday a couple were in the woods all day and came out empty handed. Going to get coffee on Friday morning, I saw 8 deer scurrying around from one area to another to get away from the hunters. Same thing Saturday morning(only 3 deer) and still no deer on the hook. Still more season to go.

    Saw this on MSN today and for all the attention the National Felon League was getting for the kneeling, this is getting some good attention.

    I understand. On Friday I actually talked to an office staff person. On Monday I left 2 messages on voicemail.

    I saw that as well Carl. I just do not understand the whole NFL thing. One player in SF drops to his knee to protest police actions against minorities and a year later it is spun as disrespect to the flag and country. The spin doctor that did that should be paid a lot more than what they made.

    The player is out of a job, and rightfully so. If I had done a similar action in front of my entire company I would expect to be fired as well. It is ok to protest but you have to expect consequences. His was not a well thought out action.

    Hello all -- I think I have been here before Maybe? I am definitely "qualified" to be here as I am not too far from the next step up. I saw a couple of names I recognize from looking back a few pages. Feel free to check my posts out -- I tend to be stubborn in my beliefs and happy in my present state of life. I am a USAF vet of the Viet nam era with 30+ combat missions to my credit --even though it nowhere states this on my dd214. I was a AMT on RC135's. (we weren't really there according to DOD) You friends can look this up if you want to know more -- or I would tell you if you want -- married (same fine lady) almost a half century --3 kiddos 9 g-kids.
    I will watch this thread more -- I promise --even if in the eves when I ain't doin something around the house --I am a huge DIY-er
