It's supposed to get a little colder tonight, low 30's. Don't buy your flares any earlier than necessary, they have expiration dates on them. I'd wait until the start of boating season and check the dates. Yes,John. I don't have plans on getting them just to sit around the winter. But simply getting my "ducks in a row" Good, you were sounding like you were going to go buy some tonight. Flares can be ordered online: http://tinyurl.com/y5sdx9 for example. They also have the cheaper ones. FWIW, I have this set: http://tinyurl.com/y55jpy But, I don't go bluewater fishing so I'm not worried about my flares being visible for 20 miles. |

Just got back from splitting a bunch of wood for dad, and am getting ready to get a haircut, pick up a bunch of candles for our Candlelight Christmas service at Church, maybe go by the boat shop, if they're still open, and tonight take the wife out for dinner. really nice day! Good luck with dinner. Today our temp climbed to the early 50's, which made golfing enjoyable. We were into the 50's up here. Thought it would be warmer way down there.

Where the hell did you get those? :) Probably the same store that Eisboch got his ohm meter... ?:-0 Actually, probably in effect they would be fine, but I would suspect that officially, not acceptable on inspection. Effect would be great. I used a yellow one to get rid of some groundhogs on my uncles farm. But true, I don't think the CG or Dept. of Conservation would go for it. |

Ugh! I asked the missus where she wanted to eat tonight, and she said
"I haven't been to Burger King in a while, lets go there..." I can't believe it! out of the better eat places around ehre, she wants to go to Burger King! Anyhow, back on weather. it's about 33 outside,a nd looks like little clouds are starting to roll in. humidity is picking up. getting really chilly feeling. *UGH!* No breeze though. It's sad to think of about 1/4 mil. people in the St. Louis area without power for the second say or so. Ice build up on the electric poles brought them down all over the city.

F'n winter... :) MORE GLOBAL WARMING!!! |

Well, you can't hold it, and you can't drop it in the boat, so how would you use it? At night it probably wouldn't be too effective. :) |

This is clearly an example of how bad the global warming situation has gotten. Stop driving. Stop heating your home. Measure your carbon footprint immediately. This is a crisis. If you don’t care for anyone else then at least care for me. Even if you care for anyone else, stop doing so and care only for me. This was a workday and I couldn’t go golfing (Oops! I mean) the end of the world as we know it is near! Tom (and man am I sweating) Ps Disregard the record-breaking low temperatures the rest of the United States is experiencing. Only focus on the northeast, WE are the world. No-one else is. I know this for a FACT, I’ve heard it from the really smart rich scientists up here. -- John H *Have a great Christmas and a spectacular New Year!* |
