  1. Apply this http://www.atsko.com/shop/catalog/Sno-Seal-Beeswax-Waterproofer-orderby0-p-1-c-267.html to the Footjoy gloves and I think we're on to something.....
  2. Now he's the spokesman. for Cheetos..... : yeah, it's lame. What are ya gonna do ?
  3. An observation about fried foods.... Fried foods get knocked for being unhealthy. I've got a big 'ol deep cast iron skillet I've been frying in for years. I always put oil in up to the bottom of the pour spout that is formed into the side of the pan. I notice when after I'm done cooking a big batch of chicken or whatever, I have the same amount of oil left over (maybe just a tad below where I started) So when properly done, how much oil is REALLY getting into the food ? Not as much as you think.
  4. These are what a well made tube are all about....http://*.com/disctube You won't find any of the inconsistencies you mentioned in these.
  5. Midgets hate farts even more than normal sized folks.....
  6. Welcome. Where in Jersey ?
  7. This thread gives me a warm fuzzy feeling all over since I am waiting for a rod I ordered from TW. It never occurred to me it's being shipped during the holiday season (duh). Oh well, I'm sure UPS is being extra careful this season to make sure everyone's package arrives undamaged...... :
  8. I wish the manufacturers, websites, catalogues or whoever would put in the product description 'rattle' or 'no rattle.' To me that's an important piece of info.
  9. Scary, aint it ?! Probably more common these days than we'd like to think.
  10. As a Vikings fan I gotta say the road to the Big Game goes through 'Nawlins and that scares me just a little...But I'm lookin' forward to it
  11. That is a good neighbor.....
  12. Where were you a day ago ? I just ordered that EXACT rod from *** and got it 20% off. The offer is gone now, but they have that rod for $109.99 which is as cheap as you're going to find it. I did a bit of research and it looks to be a killer stick for the money.
  13. A man goes into an exotic bird store in search of a pet. As he's walking the aisles checking out the different birds, he starts to get "sticker shock" at some of the prices. Two, three, four thousand dollars for some of them. Just then a salesman approaches and asks if he's interested in any of the birds. The guy says "Ya got anything cheaper ?" The salesman says he has one he can let go for $500. They go to check it out. The bird appears normal and has a good vocabulary. "Why are you letting him go so cheap ? asks the guy. The salesman says "If you look closely, you'll see he has no legs" The guy asks "Well how does he stay on the perch ?" The salesman explains that the bird wraps his *ahem* around the perch. The guy gives the salesman the money and takes the bird home. The bird is living in the guy's house for about a week. One day the guy comes home from work and the bird says "Guess what I saw today ?" The guy says "What ?" The bird says "The old lady was walking around the house with a nightie on" "Yeah, so what" "Then the doorbell rang" "Go on..." "Then the mailman came in" "Go on..." "She put on soft music and started dancing around" "Then what happened ?" "They went over on the couch and started kissing and fooling around" "WHAT HAPPENED NEXT ?" "I don't know. I fell off my perch and got knocked out....."
  14. I scored a Lowrider XG at *** for $87.99. It's not the split grip Lowrider, but a rod like this for under $100 and free shipping is a sweet deal. *** is giving 20% off just about everything but it ends today. Make sure you click on the "Black Friday" banner to get the discount...... http://www.***.com/catpage-CASTFALCON.html
  15. I'd give these people a call, they may be able to help you. You probably would need to have the washer dimensions handy. http://www.smoothdrag.com/
  16. I got me a Falcon Lowrider XG rod from TW. With the 20% off deal they had, I got it for $87.99 Best part is I didn't leave the house.
  17. I forgot the best one.....1.5" to 2.5" pieces of senko style stick baits (preferably the pointed tail section) rigged on a ball jighead, fished any number of ways. Laugh all you want, call it a junk bait, whatever. It catches fish and lots of them. A good way to get more bites out of your torn up worms...
  18. Yum Wooly Curltail grub 1.5" 3" Yum Dinger Yum Vibra King tube 2" Strike King Bitsy tube 2.75" 2" Senko (not available anymore. I bought a bunch of 'em years ago) All of these produce and all of them have caught me big fish.
  19. I found something like this at Target http://www.brookstone.com/money-clip-wallets.html?bkeid=compare%7Cmercent%7Cgooglebase%7Csearch&mr:trackingCode=A6724051-0F89-DE11-9EF7-0019B9C2BEFD&mr:referralID=NA It works out well for me as I hate carrying a wallet in my back pocket (leads to back problems), plus you can't jam a bunch of useless junk in them like a wallet.
  20. I carry one of these for work, can't beat it:http://www.homedepot.com/catalog/productImages/400/0f/0fe91fb9-fa50-465e-91c7-55b48e7a5e5f_400.jpg
  21. Too bad Abu isn't included in TW's demo program
  22. So, the concept for the knotless leader is that the leader goes inside of the braid ala the "Chinese Finger Trap" ? The more you pull on the leader the tighter the grip ?
  23. I'm about to pull the trigger on a Lowrider XG myself.
  24. I saw on another forum that the 7' has 8; 7 guides + the tip. Can't speak for the other lengths.
