  1. The primary reason cited by survey and focus group participants for not fishing was View the full article
  2. Gosh, I wish it were that easy. Unfortunately it doesn't work that way. I strongly believe Wall Street needs to impose restrictions on speculators before prices stabilize.
  3. Ya, you are. One problem to your theory: oil prices are totally dictated by the stock market, not supply and demand or competition. Drilling more oil won't solve that. In fact, America is now exporting oil because we don't consume as much as we're currently making. Nice thought, though.
  4. After 244 years, Encyclopedia Britannica will stop production of its, well, encyclopedias. They usually print a new set every two years, but 2010's 32-volume set will be its last. It finally occurred to them that people don't really use books for information anymore when they can just Google, Bing or Wikipedia anything they want to know. Actually, you don't really need a book for ANYTHING anymore, thanks to e-books, Kendles and Nooks. You don't even need to go to the store to buy a Kendle or a nook when you can just order them through Amazon or eBay. And it's not like you need a home computer to order things online because any smartphone has Internet access, and you don't even need the keyboard on your phone because you can just ask it to do whatever you need to do FOR you. This brings us to today's question: WHAT DO YOU HOLD ONTO THAT YOU KNOW IS OBSOLETE?
  5. Yep, absolutely agree with Grampa. Getting new sunscreen every year is critical - the stuff goes bad and looses its effectiveness after a year. It does have a shelf life! Also, my neighbor has been battling skin cancer, and now cannot go outside except for very short bouts, and only if he's completely covered. Obviously that would be the end of fishing for any of us. So a very slight inconvenience of putting on sunscreen and wearing protective clothing is a very small price to pay, considering the alternative.
  6. I wore Buffs head and glovewear last year. Liked 'em so well, that BassResource is coming out with a custom line of buffs that improves upon the original. They're a really cool design that addresses some of the shortfalls of what's currently available. Look for the new design soon.
  7. Hey Folks, We have a brand new design for our jerseys this year. We're really happy with them. In addition, we have a larger selection of apparel now, that you can have the BR logo embroidered on. Now there's a larger selection of BassResource bling you can add to your arsenal this year! Just click the "Gear" link in the green bar above to start exploring. Enjoy!
  8. Davey Jones, lead singer of the Monkees, died last week at the age of 66. If you're under the age of, say, 35, there's a good chance that you don't care. Heck, I'm 47, and beyond the general tenet of humanity that compells us to not feel celebratory that someone has died, I don't care much. The Monkees were a bit before my time, and my introduction them was via a cameo by Davey on the Brady Bunch. Oddly enough, Jimi Hendrix's first American tour was opening for the Monkees. Anyway, plenty of people have no idea who the heck Davey Jones is... was. Then again, I kept hearing about some 'dude' named Taylor Swift who was tearing it up in the world of country. I was a bit shocked to discover that 'he' was a 'her'. On that note, my buddy and I were all stoked to watch one of the late night talk shows a few years ago because some "really hot sounding chick" named Shia LeBouf was gonna be interviewed. We figured that with a name like Shia LeBouf, she must be a Victoria's Secret model or something similar. Lucky for us, someone emailed us to let us know that 'she' was a he. Clearly, I'm not bragging here, but it leads to today's question: I MAY HAVE BEEN THE LAST PERSON IN THE WORLD WHO DIDN'T KNOW WHO ___________ WAS.
  9. I'm curious about the drain on the cranking battery. Can you go all day long and still have enough power to start your big engine?

    Please read the forum FAQ's regarding complaints about other companies. Thanks!
  11. Shake it off. Even the best baseball players strike out every now and then. It's just one day. You're better than that, and will prove it the next time.
  12. What's a backlash?
  13. That's awesome. They've been making quite a comeback in my state. I see them at just about every lake we fish. This guy let us get real close. He then flew away about 20 mins later. This is at our home lake.
  14. Remember Coolio? I'll give you s second. Yep, THAT guy. He was arrested in Vegas last week. What did he do? It's more about what he DIDN'T do, namely show up in court to address a bunch of minor traffic violations from 2 years ago. He was taken to, and has since posted bail from, the Clark County Detention City. Oddly enough, the Clark County Detention Center is the same facility where Coolio's son is CURRENTLY being held. He was arrested last November for armed robbery and a few other choice felonies. Like father, like son... not the crimes, but the lock- up. Meanwhile, Oprah Winfrey's (desperate for people to watch her network) interview with Whiney Houston's daughter Bobbi Kristina aired last night, and to the shock of exactly ZERO people, BK announced that she, like her mother, wanted to pursue a career in showbiz. Why not? Her whacked- out mother and whacked- out father adjusted SO well to the spotlight. In addition to her ill- advised pursuit of the limelight, BK also plans to change her name to Kristina Houston. She feels that both 'Bobbi' and 'Brown' have negative connotations... unlike 'Whitney Houston'. (???) Oh, and she may or may not go into rehab to combat her own drug addictions. Allegedly, one of the mother/ daughter moments they shared was doing drugs together. Ahhhhhh family! Coolio and Bobbi Kristina inspired today's question: WHAT BAD TRAIT OR HABIT DID YOU PICK UP FROM YOUR PARENTS? I'd like to extend my gratitude to my father for my male pattern baldness and bulging gut. Awesome!
  15. A manager of K-Mart in my area was shot over the weekend by a would- be burglar who was demanding that he give them all the money in the store's safe. We're not here to tell you how to commit a crime, but who robs a K- MART?!? There's Nordstrom, Neiman Marcus, Tiffany's, Barney's... again, not trying to encourage you to rob anywhere, but if you're gonna risk going to jail, aim higher than K- Mart. Just sayin'... if you're gionna go to jail for, say, grand theft auto and you have the choice between a Ferrari and an AMC Pacer, choose wisely. Similarly, yesterday afternoon a family feud involving some 20 family members ended with at least 2 of them with knife wounds. This went down at the Old County Buffet. Come on... we expect this type of thing at Chuck E. Cheese, but the OCB? Then there was a story last month of a Chicago man who jumped up from the front row of a movie theatre naked. Thing is, the movie in question was Alvin and the Chipmunks: Chipwrecked. No one expected to see that, and that's the basis of today's question: WHERE IS THE LAST PLACE YOU EXPECTED TO SEE WHAT IT IS YOU SAW?
