i WOULD VENTURE 18%, FAVORITE SALT WATER FISH SPOTTED SEA TROUT--WE CALL THEM SPECS.


Caught alot of doubles on spec rigs. My PB was 23" but that was from shore. I do like the way the Jack Crevalle fight, and the Drum both Red and Black. I love fishing the salt water. Unfortunately I only get to do that about once a year for a week. I may try to change that next year.

Nay for me. I have never had a good fruit cake. They do make a good door stop though.

I thought I’d heard it all. See article below


I normally like it when a chef put a little of himself in a recipe, but that's taking it too far.

Bob, I worked for a great company for 47 years. They merged with another company, but it worked out pretty well for the employees. First, the new management team eliminated pensions for new employees, but grandfathered in the existing ones. They kept the 401k plan the same for them, but substantially increased their match and maximum allowable $'s able to be contributed for the new employees.
Also added an improved medical disability plan for all, and included previously nonexistent dental benefits.
I guess they wanted to reduce legacy costs but still be able to attract quality new employees.
No pay cuts for existing employees and modest yearly increases remained in place for 3 years. Vacation benefits were not cut, but new folks will have a reduction. ( I had 5 weeks vacation when I retired, that was the maximum then ).
The folks I keep in touch with still working there expected a much worse situation, so they're pleased.

There are good companies out there but there are more not so good companies also. Glad it worked out for you.

I agree with you. The other side of the coin is that used to some loyalty on the employers side to employees. Now, employees are a dime dozen. Turnover doesn't matter. Places all over the country are looking for employees. Increases in hourly pay and sign on bonuses up to 5k still don't work. Work environment and work ethics have changed significantly in the last 30 years.


True they have taken pensions away, they get rid of people when they have alot of years in so they can replace them with someone cheaper. Less benefits, like vacation and less pay per hour. They don't understand the value of a longtime employee. I believe they have both "evolved" but not for the better.

So, It is all 4's kin fault that we have this problem I take it from what the caption says.


When I first read it, it did not compute. Then I realized that you meant the kin of four. The other way has a different meaning. Lol

Just some random thoughts. The following things died years ago. It's unlikely they will come back.

Customer service
Manners
Boundaries (anything goes now)
A man's word
Listening to someone else's opinion or belief without telling them they are wrong
Respecting elders
Being considerate of others

Feel free to add to this list. I won't say things were better 50 or 60 years ago, but they sure were different.


The one I believe is on its way out is Work ethic. People worked a job did what was expected of them and more, even if they didn't like their job. They stuck with it until they could find something else.

How many lawnmowers have you lick??????????


None, but that is the only thing I could think of to describe the beer taste. I know what the lawnmower smells like after a few mowings, so I let my imagination do the rest. I'm sure there is alot of different flavored IPAs but the one I tried was awful.

No way BB. Left overs are a sigh no one went home hungry. I just hate being last in line and when You get to the taters just a spoon full left. Never going to happen at my house.


That's the rule in my house also. If you went home hungry it's your own fault. We must be the overly prepared.

I tried some IPA once, it was like licking the bottom of a lawnmower. Haven't touched them since.
