Holy Moly!! I had to print this off so I could respond to all the false charges levied against me by Brother Chris. Well, here goes; To address the first problem. You always post about your buying different vehicles; 'Yota, Dodge, Honda etc. Since you are a young man, I feel it is my responsibility to help you out and give you some good advice. If you were to buy a FORD, you would not be wasting money on cheap imitations, therefore you would have MORE money to spend on your fishing, boats, and stuff for your new home. Just looking out for you. 2nd problem; MOST of my posts have been defending myself against Crappie Novice who is a pot-stirrer and thread jacker (although I too have been guilty of this UNTIL I learned the rules and got ass chewins' from Bugman) 3rd problem;The computer is my alter ego. I LOVE the teasing part of the posts and really enjoy the back and forth with folks. It makes me laugh a lot and makes the day go faster. When I am at camp, I am totally out of my element. I enjoy sitting back and taking it all in. I have always found (SERIOUSLY) the best way to learn was to keep my mouth shut and listen to people who know WAY more than I will ever know about crappie fishing. TONS of folks on here have been gracious enough to take me with them fishing and to offer advice and answers to my questions. I think that is the spirit of CDC and it brings out the best in people. I also try, in a limited way, to "pay it forward" so to speak and help other members with things that I DO know about (which is not a lot). 4th. problem. I can't possibly get the time off to attend camp. Other than the techs, there are only 2 of us in service (small dealership) and it does create a hardship when one of us is not here. I will try to make it up Saturday afternoon/evening to see old friends and meet new folks Whew! Long winded, but I HOPE I answered all your points/questions to your satisfaction; if not, go to ****RoflRofl
