That's a long time from now. Hope I'm still alive.

i caught myself on the charkbait website yesterday and didnt even realize i was getting ready to spend more money...i shut my puter off very quickly.

ordered my new Stella 20K the other day!!!! YAY!!!

HO's!!!! LOL!! I got an idea while watching the flying fish for HOURS on the cruise ship (majority of them were down south near Mexico right at the edge of the Continental Shelf)... SCHOOLS of them... some would fly for at LEAST 100 yds... without touching water....
My idea is to get some styrofoam and make some replica flying fish(with wings front and rear)... once I add the hooks and swivels it will weigh an ounce or so... next would be to hook it up at a helium balloon... that will allow it to not be in the water so much(i can control it with the line tension on how hi or low it goes to the water).... that will allow mee to get a large hook on a one-time only cheap bait for the possibility of a LARGE yellowfin out away from the boat.... I hope to have 20 or so styrofoam baits and will have to see exactly how big a balloon i need for each one to maximize the available helium in one of those WalMart party balloon tanks(think its 5 gallon size).......

how are you going to have time for all this experimenting when you are supposed to be cooking?

lol.... if we ALL go back and looky again... the monetary donations were for a wedding gift... I SAID I would HELP with the cooking.....lol.... And I will help out, but I aint nobody's cookie slave..... hehehehehe.... I like to cook, and do it well.... and I also learned how to do the sushi rolls(california) rolls from the onboard sushi chef on the cruise ship... lets just say I think I ate my fair shair of octopus, mackeral, tuna, and crab sushi rolls.... lol... love that wasabi and soy sauce mix!! and the best part was it was freeeeeeeee!! Woo hooo!!! the only food worth a sheeeeet on the whole BOAT!!!

how many Lunar cycles are we at now?

whoa there skeeter ronnie!!! your wedding gift from me is a rod when it arrives. i still own 20 percent of your time if this trip makes and i am still onboard.. so you won't be leaving that grill on the upper deck except to piss and wash your hands.....rick

LOL!! DANGIT!!! There you go bursting my bubble again!! Thats just great!!! AND WHO SAID I HAD TO WASH MY HANDS!!!???!! You want fresh hand picked tomatoes with your steak??? LOL!!!

~I am looking forward to "watching" you guys fish from the upper deck.. Why cant you just bring a ton of cheeseburgers and I will heat them up in the microwave!! I love that 2cheeseburger meal deal!! Get it everytime I leave the lake from fishing all day long.. LOL!!!
~I think Bazztex, JP, and I have it worked out to where the cooking will go pretty easy. I still have all the roaster and the lists from Newman on what to do.... YALL WILL EAT, and I will get to fish.
If thats not good enough I can refund whoever's money wants it.

as long as you aren't serving furmanda cheese...^_^

LOL!!! Cant grow the furmanda cheese anymore since I got married..... she wont let me!! I will have to bring a couple CD's of Rodney Carrington for the trip... Them yankees from OK wont know what to think of him...hehehhehe...

McGolfer- Tbone or porterhouse??? tenderloin aint no choice here in Texas!

Where I'm from, we call it "Fromunder Cheese". It forms really well on those three day hunting and fishing trips without a shower.

forms best ina hot,humid enviroment where lots of alcohol and eggs are consumed.. LOL!!!
