SPEEDBEAD.

Haha, you definitely got that last part right.....

What exactly are you doing?

Already have his address.....

Whoa Sam. Not all "Mexican" live off the system. Some of us actually work. In fact, I see that most work really hard doing jobs that others wont touch. What I do see in my area to be honest is lots of anglo's living off the system. Robert is right. When you say "Mexican" I will assume you mean illegal aliens? If that is the case, illegal people (no matter where they came from) are not eligible (technically) for benefits. They may receive medical help for a verified medical emergency and that is all. Their children may be eligible for food stamps, but they themselves are not. Same goes for cash assistance. I spend my day trying to get people to work. I dont care what color you are, as long as you are trying to help yourself then I dont have a problem helping you for the time being. Wayne

You're a strange little guy....the lamb's tail thing did make me laugh though.

That ice is nasty out there. Dont fall and break anything.

U hunting today?

Ok, I suppose I can weigh in on this. I am one of those wonderful people in the state office evaluating families for benefits. What you all fail to realize is there are people out there that genuinely need and deserve a helping hand. Unfortunately, it only takes one person to make the system seem all about a "hand out." In my three years of doing this job, I have seem both ends of the spectrum but the majority of people on my caseload are good people. Some made bad decisions when they were younger, some continue to make bad decisions later in life, some in this area have bad decisions made for them and they end up losing their jobs. Does it irritate me when people I KNOW are earning money under the table are able to get away without claiming it? YES Do I know I am doing a lot of people a great service by providing health care and food stamp benefits when they are in a time of need? YOU CAN BET YOUR PAYCHECK ON IT. Keep in mind, this is coming from someone who not only works in this field, but I also have a second job in the evening. So, yeah, its a little difficult to see a 20 year old with no health issues tell me they cant find a job. My main point is that there are both good and bad involved in the welfare system, mostly good. But as with all things, people only point out the bad things and assume "they are all that way." Wayne

Ask Redline about crunching numbers, I think he does OK :

Some days in my cubicle, you just feel like flipping out. LOL Here is a video of some people that did. http://glumbert.com/wii/view.php?name=baddayoffice Wayne

What about the guy that makes Brent's stuff? I put a few on the trailer last year and they held up nicely. I dont know if those qualify for what you need though...

I hear ya Burley. Up here, everyone is infatuated with trout fishing. This makes it very difficult to find stuff for bass at Wally world.

One word......Sawzall

Cant....Take.....the pressure..... > Time....must.....go faster!!!!!!

Skynyrd "Sweet Home Alabama" has been my ring tone for quite a while now.... My fiance made one for herself on the phone. It sounds like the verbalization of background "adult film" music LOL She's a goof and I love her....what am I gonna do?

He will show you ....... for a $1 a stroke of course ;D ;D ;D Once again the door has been opened, and I must :-X LOL, nah...Thats the way Craig Baugher rolls, one stroke at a time

Good deal. PM sent your way. Wayne

Great offer ghoti. While I might not be staying there, I may have to partake in the festivities with you. Like you said, I am not a drunk....but I do have an appreciation for malt and hops. RW and Jimzee, I have not forgotten LOL

Thanks Falcon. I knew I heard at least one positive about the situation. I understand how they can cause problems very quickly w/ water pipes clogging and their rate of reproduction. BTW, no, not spring yet LOL

In 54 days (according to the countdown) I am gonna be fishing around a lot of the guys here, so I will pick a few that I wont have that opportunity with, yet. Muddy and Avid because fishing with those two meatballs would be entertaining like I can't begin to imagine. Basser89 to show me some of those BIG musky and smallie spots on the Potomac. Redline to see what it is like to go 90mph on the water (and catch some fish along the way too) Zel because he seems very intelligent about most things under the sun. LBH and the RI guys because they catch bass, period. I can't think of anyone on here that I wouldnt fish with, except that BAUGHER guy that was on here before. I think I might even fish with Fourbizz if he was being nice that day...

In that case....Hello there, I am a man

Come on man, you cant make it that easy for us....And I cant believe Avid or Long Mike let this one go either.

Falcon, I was under the impression that the mussels (while they are a non-native species) actually benefitted the Great Lakes region and the fisheries there. Not too sure, but I recall that from somewhere....

Sorry Glenn.... Super Bowl XL for me, just because Jerome Bettis got to go out in style.

Thanks for the great website. That helps me a lot instead of just reading how someone does it.
