#15 - Everyone knows they'll start biting in front of a storm. It's so tempting to stay out there. This is why Bass Fishing is a sport. My rule is that it's not a sport unless you can get killed doing it.
There ain't nothing like holding on to a graphite baitcasting rod with a thunderstorm moving in because the bite is just too damned hot to sit the storm out.

Never once did a marketer have the balls to continue.
And there was the morning some asshat started wardialing the phones in the Network Ops Center. For ther telephone company: "Look, you know wardialing business numbers is illegal, right? And the fine is 1500 bucks a call?
"And, frankly, this is the phone company. We automatically have Call Detail Records for each of your calls. We who you are, and where you are."
'Had a guy at work who got a call from a telemarketer while we were talking to him. The marketer was offering loans. My coworker said, on speaker, "Really? $8K approved right over the phone??? That's good because I did your mom last night and she was EXPENSIVE!"
Got a call one day from someone supposed to be representing some sheriff's benefit association. Just happened to have the Sheriff standing in my office when the call came in so I put it on speaker. Never heard someone mumble and hang up as quick as they did when he said "Hi, this is Sheriff X"
A buddy of mine were fishing in his bass boat, we watch this NASTY storm rolling toward us. He asked, you ready to pack it in? I said he'll NO they'll be hitting shortly, he agreed. So, with all the lightning and blinding rain this Karen runs out of her house stands right beside a 30 ft pine tree telling us we're stupid.
#11 ... It was bad enough that Subway hired a formerly 500 pound pedo for a spokesweasel. Now they have to deal with the fallout from Zohran Mamdani claiming that his mythical auntie was afraid to step into a Subway for a ham sandwich in her hijab after 9/11.
#13 - I saw a video of Adele in one of those contests. She actually had some cheek inserts to disguise herself a touch. In the actual look-alike part she came in 5th, but then they had a singing part and well... yeah, everyone knew it was her after that.
As for #1. After all of the vitamins and immune system supplements we have been taking, we feel healthier than ever. Five years. No colds. No flu. No 'rona. My knees are better and I can walk like a human again. My wife's nascent dementia has eased considerably. We both have more energy than we have had in years. I feel like 70 is the new 50, or some such silliness.
#20 Why are we spending money to sink boats half a world away? Specially boats that don't have the capacity to reach the US. All these boats with outboard engines could never carry the fuel that would be needed to reach the US.
Why are we spending millions of dollars deploying half the Navy to Venezuela and shooting missiles at boats that could be dealt with a couple guns?
Holy shit, you can't be serious. There's this thing called REFUELING along the way. You know, what you have to do when you drive more than 300 miles? And who says they're going all the way to the US? They're dropping the shit off before it gets to the US so it can be transported into the country in a not-so-obvious method. Thanks, now I have a headache.
Tell me you have never spent a minute on a boat without telling me you have never spent a minute on a boat... Even refueling and not stopping it would take those boats a week to get here. Never mind that those boats have nowhere to sleep, cook, eat or protection from the sun. Try spending a week exposed to the sun in the Caribbean and tell me later how it went for you! Even if you believed that those boats are coming to the US you could very easily track them. If they stop in Grenada, Dominica, Martinique, St Lucia or any other Caribbean country let them deal with it. Not our problem. If they make it pass Cuba sink them with a couple shots from the coast guard for cents on a dollar. We are spending millions of dollars to sink boats that are no risk to us. Grenada and other southern Caribbean countries are very happy that we are spending all that money to stop drug boats that are likely coming to them. 0% of the fentanyl that comes to the US comes from Venezuela. 85% of the cocaine comes from Colombia via Mexico over the Pacific... So what the fuck are we doing spending money to sink boats that pose no risk to us half a world away? Talk about government efficiency!
Just how far do you think those boats are travelling offshore? So far that they couldn't put in for the night? And how far do those boats travel at a stretch? Do you honestly think they're making the entire trip in one run, or is it possible the loads are being relayed? And so what if it takes a week or a month for the loads to get to their destination? They're still getting there. Thanks, you just made my headache worse.
I don't give a rat's arshole if the DRUGS are going elsewhere or need refueling or they are going to a sock-hop. They have drugs onboard so blow the MF'ers out of the water. We have the capacity and NOW with Trump... we have the will. JUST DO IT! YA WANNA SAVE $$$???!!! throw out the illegals and get the fat lazy f'cks off welfare.
Man I've heard stupid people but that anonymous asshole is in a league of his own... First off you don't know shit about the logistics involved in this operation but here you are showing your ass.. Do us all a favor and go back to your little live action war games you play on your x-box and leave the real world to those that know the difference between their head and a hole in the ground.. Fucking retard JD
Do we even know if those people are drug runners? I have not seen any evidence yet. I know Trump has repeated multiple times that they are but the day I trust government without evidence has not yet come.
Oh yeah, your typical Venezuelan fishermen all drive boats with multiple engines that each cost thousands of dollars when the per capita income of Venezuelans is only 4510 dollars per year, have no holds for their catch and no room for a fishing crew. Sure, uh-huh, you bet.

DeleteMy rule for a sport is if everybody playing it isn't a millionaire it's just a hobby.

The sister ship of Hemmingway's fishing boat The Pilar is in the Wonders of Wildlife Museum and Aquarium in Springfield, Mo. Worth a visit.

Calls stopped.
I'd say, "I charge $25 to accept unsolicited sales calls, how would you like to make payment?"

DeleteA single Mercury 400 R outboard motor is $ 45 to 60 thousand... So 4 is in the 200 thousand dollars range and that doesn't include the boat.
