12poundbass

I told this story a while back, a guy I used to work with is my mechanic. He’sa certified mechanic and is the mechanic for five lumber yards which is where I met him. I had an issue with my truck, he was three weeks out so the wife took it some place else. They quoted her $800 for plus, wires, coils, and plugs. Luck would have it my mechanic has a cancellation and got me in. He went through the diagnostic process and determined it was a burnt valve, not just in need of a tune up! About the same price, but I asked him who’s responsible for payment on a misdiagnosis? He said I would be. The saddest part of this is the place my wife took it to, is the most popular shop in town, it’s not a chain store, it’sa mom and pop shop but still it’s pretty scary for sure! I told him he can’t retire!

Happy birthday, same age as my wife. I still have a few years to get there but some days I feel like I’m older than that!

He’s past that stage now. She’s pretty bummed about that and this year is the first year he doesn’t “believe” either.

Mrs. 12poundbass is in the Christmas spirit! The dogs, they don’t have a choice.

With your vast knowledge of computers and technology it was a no brainer. The pressure is on you now to keep the site from crashing.

I said pike on a bike, then I kept reading. Thankfully I kept reading. ?

After all these years that’s what my brain says when I read his screen name. Since this thread has a refresh I’ll say fish for all of a day and then revert back. ?

Congrats man!

The Grumpy Old Men movies are great!

Three emergencies so far today, all broken poles. Thankfully we got our power back according to the wife. They were saying on the radio this morning, this frontal condition is stronger than the one that sunk the Edmond Fitzgerald.

Annnnnnnd the power is out! The wind is howling here. I foresee a busy day chasing broken pole emergencies all day long.

He sure did! ?

I’m sure the deer is saying, “I’m trying to get a drink at the pond and I’m getting eyeballed”.

But you don’t feel bad?

I didn’t see the driver but I’m pretty sure I was following Santa. I hope one of those are for me. If you’re wondering they are Vexus boats. I got lucky enough to catch a red light to get close enough to see what brand they were. And I took this picture at less than 5 mph, just past said stop light. Safety first!

Anybody have an idea how long those Dobyns prices are good for? The end of the year correct? Never mind, I read the smaller print. I’m an idiot.

My grandpa fought in New Guinea. He never talked about his time there except for seeing kolas, sloths, and kangaroos. He’s been gone 25 years now and resting peacefully at Fort Custer National Cemetery here in Michigan. I still have his dog tags from his service time and several of the shells from the 21 gun salute from his funeral.

I’ve never used these rod but this has me intrigued. Would these rods compare at all to a Dobyns Fury? I’ve been impressed with the Fury I bought this year.

Yup she’s pretty chilly out and that windchill was frigid!

Two weeks to go and I’ll be off until 2022!

That looks like a lot of lights!

That would help

He busted my balls Friday so he’s still lurking around here.

Mother Nature doesn’t make square edges so imagine one is man made for sure.

Yes you did. And you know there’s a nor’easter who’ll chime in soon.
