See you all in the spring....
 

Well, I have been lurking in the shadows for some time now and see the group is
still fighting amongst the ranks. I wanted to wish you all a Merry Christmas
and I'll be back on here in the spring.

FWIW... since my boat is wrapped up and winterized, I have been enjoying my
free time going hunting. A few members of this group (you know who you are)
could use a good dose of the outdoors. Get yourself some camoflage, grab a
lever-action 30-30 rifle, or 12GA shotgun, and head out into the woods or the
edge of a farmers field. It's a true challenge and is rich in tradition.

Have a good winter, Butch, and a happy holiday season
All my boats are wrapped, and covered with snow, except for the "duck
boat". I never claimed I wasn't stupid. :o)

With Christmas Season and all it's hard to get excited about shootin' &
killin'
Maybe a little later on when cabin fever sets in.
Here you have to wear 'hunter orange' so the other gun nuts have a better
target. :-)

Bitching and criticizing is pretty easy.

How long since you last started an on-topic thread?

Do you see what you're doing Chuck? "Bitching and criticising" about
my signature? I've had a lot of respect for you in the past, but your
"snipe" was unnecessary. My sig is MY opinion, and I stand by it.

This place is operated like a private boys club. A relatively small
number of reg's see it as their personal playground, and to hell with
anyone that is concerned about trivialities such as simple Usenet
etiquette. Those who dare to mention the fact that most of this ****
is totally off-topic are bullied or insulted until they shut up, or go
away. Well, screw that....!

I started an on-topic thread two days ago (see STELLAMARE), and I've
posted to a few more.

What's your beef? Did I hit a nerve?
Regards,
noah

Tell me, in the last year just how many ON topic posts have stayed on topic and
have not been hijacked or taken off topic.

Not very many I would guess.

125 days to go..

Just watch out for those protesters who don't share your view of hunting
as a "rich" tradition. In their eyes, you're an "evil" person......

I know what you are saying. I dealt with that here at work. One of the ladies
in the admin dept came over to my cubicle one time to talk to me. She saw a
bunch of old Field & Stream magazines on file cabinet, and saw the photo of me
decked out in camoflage, standing in front of a duck boat, holding a pair of
ducks. She darn near wigged out on me: "Is that YOU? Oh my God... I didn't
know you got into that stuff! You don't seem like the type".

"The TYPE"?!?! What "type" is she referring to? Hmmm.... Maybe it's because
I'm a mild mannered white collared computer geek, but on weekends I don the
camoflage and go hunting.

Anyway, take care everyone and have a wonderful Christmas holiday!
