Welcome to the forum.

In my experience it's a hassle. If you have a nice quiet dog that won't leave your side go for it, mine was entirely too sociable and the danger of them disturbing someone or eating something nasty is too great. I caught Mrs Berger's little Offenpincher Sam with a #4 baitholder and a piece of cheese when we were ice fishing one evening and he made a terrible noise when his daddy took it out with the pliers.[emoji22]

Congratulations Saskcarp on your team's win!

Out here we use something like this; it's a blade clevis for spinners and this is a small one. It's good to about 1.5 oz but for 3 oz leads we need the large ones or they shed on the cast. A bead goes between this and the rig knot as usual. It provides a nice slide and when the lead's snagged up sometimes the lead pops free saving your rig. After that happens the clevis has to be discarded as it will shed on the cast after. While it won't shed on the take (and I don't want that anyway) I like using them vs just running the line through the swivel on the lead.

All my rigs are running rigs, I never use a bolt.

Win some lose some mate.

Only one of 3 really good shots went in at the end as well, it could have been 3 - 1. Liverpool just spanking AVL now, 4 - 0 with half an hour left.Edit: 5 - 0. I'll abandon this bloodbath and go make kippers.

The main problem with Leicester's game in the final 20 minutes seemed to be that their offence played only in their own end of the pitch.

Turned on Ars vs LC at 75:00 and it's tied 1 - 1, thank goodness I didn't miss anything![emoji28] And then Arsenal just pounds away, almost scoring with a few good chances and in 4 min stoppage time only using half the field... 94:30 Welbeck scores and once again Arsenal proves how great they are. Yayyyy![emoji106]

Look, I wrote a book! The first lab I had in the 70's chewed a few shoes (all from different pairs, of course) and we sorted that out, but my last one was an angel. The litters of labs we saw born and sold out of the kennel I worked in never saw the inside of a house from the time they were weaned and out of the whelping box until their new owners took them home. They had individual insulated dog houses inside adjoining fenced kennels with wooden floors. Nothing to chew there, right? Some would chew the doorways of doghouses or even the floor so I was instructed to get a quart of hot sauce and apply to the wood. This dissuaded all but the one "odd dog out". His mum, Taxi, (my old Bogey's mum as well) was known for throwing the odd weird pup and this litter had one. He loved the hot sauce and chewed harder than ever! He was so lonesome and attentive I gave him basic obedience in record time but he was still a bit soft and not really suited for a hunting retriever or field trial dog so we didn't sell him, and my employer gave him to an old man as a companion dog. That litter all had grain names for the registry (as opposed to their home or call names) and I named that little guy Kannata Buckwheat. That was over 20 years ago and I still remember some of the individual dogs that we raised and trained and a few that were brought in for advanced training, either because of their characters or because of particular successes or setbacks in training. I remember having 6 dogs at heel straight out from my left shoulder walking and turning with me, unconnected but intent on my next move, then adding puppies to the file... I didn't make too much cash and had to work long and hard and at first I had to be trained then suppliment that with study, and I probably smelled like a dog but I think that may have been my favourite job. My boss had 300 sheep as well, and a few Border Collies but outside of having to feed the sheep when the boss was away and occasionally slaughter and butcher some lambs for sale the dogs were my main interest.

They were really good when I ordered my reels from Canada, took a bit of time to verify credit details but that's an inconvenience for them as well, so they went out of their way to serve me.

Philistine. Louis Prima was the bad boy of jazz and pivotal in it's development. He got proper recognition in Ken Burns' Jazz documentary series.

What about taping a 1 ply piece of tissue paper over the flash? Freedom to experiment for free is just another thing I Iike about digital.

The left hand one.

I'm so cheap and lazy that if I was going to consider them disposable or near as, I might take the path of least resistance and just drill in 1/8" or so and glue in a swivel, (cheap or otherwise). For distance you might gain a bit by trimming the stone with a tile saw or chop saw or grinder and vise to make it more aerodynamic but be careful, it's all good fun until someone loses an eye. I'm curious about just what it takes to drill into or through stones as I have a drill press and vise in the basement, and like the notion of in-lines as well.

Those are prehistoric artifacts, Gagnacarp, stone age fishing weights.

When I was about 15 I bought this album because I liked the jacket, and accidentally discovered jazz. In Walked Bud and Green Onions are a couple of cuts I like. No linking to these, but worth listening to on youtube.

I remember seeing Buddy Rich on the Ed Sullivan Show when I was a kid, he was a pretty big star.

I think it's because pebbles are non-polluting and they're free.
