WalMart has Eagles for cheap if you are just looking for a bottom
finder. They are good units.

Agreed. I've never been a fan of Humminbird and I have had both on a
bass boat at the same time.

Why? I've got two Hummingbirds on my boat that I've had for five years
or so, both have never done anything but work flawlessly.

Just read that in the paper.

how does some teenage escapades lead one as an adult to have a hankering
for twinks?

But according to his attorney/publicist, he isnt offering that as an excuse
or justification for his actions. Alcoholism, quite naturally, is the
culprit.

This always fascinates me.

With all the social problems we have in this country which could use a
good dose of old time religion, why do missionaries have to go to
another country to help and do good works? Why not the Bronx or East
LA or American Indian country? Why Central America or anywhere else
for that matter?

It's like adopting Asian babies - I don't get that either. There are
lots of kids here in the states, in particular older ones, that can
use good parenting and a good home, yet people insist on adopting
Korean, Chinese and East Asian Indian children. What's the point?

I just don't get it.

I don't know about these missionaries in particular, but I do know a little
about the Southern Baptist Church Mission program. It is divided into 2
parts, a Foreign Mission Board and a North American Mission Board. the NAMB
has just over 2900 full time missionaries and about 2400 long-term ( 4
months to 2 years, these people are self-funded) missionaries working here
in the US.

Once again I cannot speak for anyone else, but I (and my local church)
believe we are instructed to do good works everywhere, since I cannot run
off to a foreign country on a regular basis (although I have been able to go
to a couple on a 1-2 week basis) I/we can help send others. We also do a
lot of work locally as well as elsewhere here in the southeast. Here is a
link with a little info if you are interested.

As for the adoption issue, I agree. I work with 2 people however who have
adopted children from other countries. In both cases, the issue was the
large amount of red tape involved in trying to adopt here in the US. They
both said the issue was not money as it was the same or slightly more due to
travel etc.

The Mormon's send missionaries to the USA. My nephew went to the Navaho
Indian reservation region.

I know and they do really good work.


I've got a cousin who ended up in that religion. I'll send him down to
see you. Says he's some kind of priest?? and is involved in their
genealogy program.
I made it clear not to try preaching to me.

Since you probably don't keep very small birds on your boat I'm guessing
your spell checker got that one.

You have to compare them to see the difference. The resolution on the
Humminbirds is poor compared to others in the same category or price
range. The features are also lacking.

Adopting babies from far away lands (Asian, Europe etc,) do not come
with Lawyers from far away lands that will haunt the adoptive parents
asserting rights of the birth parents. Long after the adoption has been
completed.
