The SteveAndTiff Identity

I trust you know how to keep them in good order

[Darnell 8,479]

size? i have 145 reels currently and maybe 90 rods, all in storage ... The rods are huge, mostly saltwater.

i used to set up a booth at a flea market each time I amassed 200 somethings, and sell them off as collectibles.

I'm not doing that , at the moment, due to mobility concerns (ie - I'm still having problems walking)

I think once YanYan sees a weekend market, and studies the stuff I have in storage, her business sense will kick in and she'll have some fun

pictures? no - not this round.

One day I'd like to learn to fly fish.

[Darnell 8,479]

I actually like to fly fish, but I've not done it this century.

[SAT 9,609]

I know how to fly fish too lol. But I haven't gone since.....I dun remember......and the sick thing is. My property upstate borders some of the best fly fishing in the country (Due to the fact that NY puts more $$ into it's wildlife more than any other state). Google Upper Delaware River fishing...

wow Skipper....looks like your collection trumps mine.....I'd like to have seen some of the stuff in it. Simply because I'm crazy about the stuff. I hope your bum leg gets better soon. Otherwise how are you gonna get around in China.

I dug up some fantastic USMC memorabilia in the garage and the basement closet today. Stuff packed away years ago, and left forgotten....

[Darnell 8,479]

ya i don't sell my corps stuff, ever.

----

other stuff though, is free range, open to be sold. There's some tools I'll never sell, though, as I think that they ain't replace-able.

[SAT 9,609]

some old hand tools are irreplaceable.

ah I do have a 40 year old tape ruler....it was my fathers.

[SAT 9,609]

I think Niki's turning into a fisherman in Colorado...

[TBoneTX 46,125]

You're brave niki....I'd go nuts if I don't see my daughter for even 1 day......

Mrs. T-B. & I went away from a Friday morn to a Saturday eve, and Mrs. T-B. called Mama-Mrs.-T-B. (who was babysitting) only 18 times on Friday and 11 times on Saturday, if my counts were accurate.

[TBoneTX 46,125]

GOT MY FRIGGIN SSN TODAY!! hollar back ya'll!

Si man, Niki-Bone!!!!!

Must embrace my new life.

Two immigrants have just arrived in the United States by boat. As they discuss their expectations of American culture, one says to the other, "I hear that the people of this country actually eat dogs."

"Odd," his companion replies, "but if we shall live in America, we should do as the Americans do, si man."

Nodding emphatically, the first immigrant points to a hot-dog vendor, and they both walk toward the cart. "Two dogs, please," he says. The vendor, only too pleased to oblige, wraps both hot dogs in foil and hands them over the counter. Excited, the companions hurry to a bench and begin to unwrap their "dogs."

One of them opens the foil and begins to blush. Staring at it for a moment, he turns to his friend and whispers cautiously, "What part did you get?"

[TBoneTX 46,125]

I should probably not come on here first thing in the morning to move posts around and try to be helpful. It saps my energy to read all the stupid sometimes.

Your presence is crucial, si ma'am. Just try it past the "witching hour" and stay up way too late, zzz man.

"No, Dear, I can't come to bed yet. Someone on the Internet is wrong!"

[TBoneTX 46,125]

That is a lot of fishing poles. Are they for different things?

An inmate of a mental asylum sat holding a fishing pole with the line dangling in a flower bed. "What are you fishing for, my man?" asked a visitor.

"Suckers," replied the fisherman, without looking up.

"Catch any yet?" asked the visitor.

"You're the eleventh today," responded the inmate calmly.

[TBoneTX 46,125]

some old hand tools are irreplaceable.

ah I do have a 40 year old tape ruler....it was my fathers.

I won't give up ANY of these. Some were even Grandpa T-B.'s.

Going to bed, again far too late, zzz man.
