something I've wondered about data usage......how much data does Pandora use? I almost always just use my ipod but have always wondered if I ran pandora if it eats up a bunch of data.

I'm with ya.....but waders are something you put on when waist deep in the Maumee in early April when the water is cold as hell. Every year I'm there some poor bastard falls down and gets a good bath. I figure it's just a matter of time before that's me and I'm dreading it. Fishing day over when that happens. We went up a couple years in boats and while that is definitely my preferred method of fishing it's a huge pain in the ass. Boat ramps are always completely crowded, river is always crowded, and it's almost always extremely shallow with heavy current. Just makes for a stressful trip until you get anchored up good and fishing.

we have 4 lines with verizon and my wife gets us a discount for working at OSU. I got on the verizon chat this week just to see how it would work out. Our bill would go up by $62/month if we went to the unlimited plan. Our current plan is for 6 gigs/month and all but 2-3 months a year we never get close to that. During the summer when we're doing vacations we get close but the rest of the year it's around 4

I have got to figure out a way to fit some beer drinking in. The weather is just too nice this weekend to not make sure that happens.

https://www.rogerssportinggoods.com/apparel/waders.html Right now I'm looking at Rogers waders. Never heard of them before doing these searches but like what I see. 5mm neoprene, attached boots because I don't want stocking foots, 1600 gram thinsulate boots, sealed cell phone pocket, and offered in big sizes. Last year it was 19 when we went out in the morning so warmth is important when waist deep in water. I want them plenty big so I can wear a heavy coat under them. I can in my old ones but it's like they're giving birth to me when it's time to take them off they're so tight haha. I have to take them off behind the truck door because they pull my pants down every time. haha My current waders that I'll keep for a "just in case" scenario are hodgman's nylon/pvc waders and they've been kickass waders. I think they're nylon....I'd have to look at the box. I just know they're not neoprene. I've had them 15+ years although I've only fished in them maybe 10 trips. Missed a couple years and did a boat a couple years. Other than them not being big enough I would keep using them. The outter is pretty stiff but it's durable as hell. Everyone I know is on about their 3rd set of neoprene in the time I've had mine because theirs leaked. I think I paid $80 for them at Galyan's if you remember them.

My boy finished up his season this week. He's finishing up the week practicing with the high school team. Pretty down today after practice...He's just tired of losing I think. Hopefully it'll kick start him to want to win. He only won 2 matches all season so been a rough year. His last match went the 3 rounds and he lost 5-3. He had opportunity to win that match...Just didn't fight for it hard enough.

Been wader shopping this week for our annual maumee trip. My waders have really shrank the last couple years.....Can't blame that on the drier so I think just storing them made them shrink. Either way...Shopping for new ones. Last year we woke up to 8" of snow. Don't expect that will be the case this year. Not quite sure what this warm winter is gonna do to the run. I would think it'll be a little early.

wow....looks like its the right place. http://racerxonline.com/2016/07/01/racerhead-27

they go through a ton of inventory there.....they've had some pretty nice looking vehicles there too. It's basically up the road from my house and I've seen that place grow from having 3-4 cars to now having a shit ton. If anything catches your eye there let me know and I'll stop and look at it and take some pics if need be.

am I finding the right place? Facebook says it's closed and he's dead.

might not help you much but keep an eye out at this place.....they have some cheap beaters there on a regular basis. http://www.3digitauto.com/

Anyone know a place locally that rebuilds shocks? I have a scrambler with a fox shock remote reservoir that needs rebuilt.

I have your number....I'll text you some links as I find stuff to get your input. I pretty much know what I want. Just a matter of sitting down and doing it. I like that bocote wood but want to look at some other woods too. Something like that on a Damascus blade. Should be a good looking knife.
-
I'm getting ready to start shopping parts for that knife we talked about earlier. I'll get in touch with you when I figure out exactly what I want to get for him and have the supplies.

owls are cool as hell......one of the most highly specialized creatures on the planet. I had one fly into a tree next to me this season early one morning while I was bow hunting and hang out for a few minutes. Pretty cool stuff.

a bunch of years ago we went to put in bay. We parked and rode the jet express over. 2 days later we get back to the mainland side and get to the car. The cars that were parked under the lights (thankfully we weren't) were completely covered in bird shit from the gulls. To the point you could barely tell what color they were and the windshields were completely covered in bird shit. Just up the road was a car wash with a line of cars at it....all covered. I laughed my ass off but only because it wasn't my car. Had it of been my car there would've been a return trip with a pellet gun. I'm also guessing whoever owns that car wash is a millionaire.

I've had direct tv for about 10 years I believe....something like that. I've had great luck with their service. The only time I've ever had an issue is if there's a bad electrical storm coming and you really shouldn't be watching tv anyhow. Probably happens once a year maybe. What I don't like is their price, their damn audio randomly cuts out for a second on a regular basis, and the receiver will lag every once in a while when rewinding live tv or hitting the guide button. That last one really pisses me off. Imagine trying to rewind to a spot and getting there but when you hit play it keeps rewinding for 5 more seconds. Or you hit the guide button and a black screen pops up for 10 seconds before it loads. Yeah....Nth level of pissedoffedness.

I thought they were talking about under a rock haha It does explain though why your ideas are so far off of most people here though...you're the east coast version of Kalifornia.

I just had an "aha" moment

What kinda speeds you guys seeing on spectrum 60/10? I've did several tests today and it's fluctuating wildly. I've seen everything from 5 to 68 down and 1 to 6 up.
-
I'm on their chat (spectrum) right now and they're telling me 60-10 for $65 nevermind....that's new customer rates I'm guessing

My son is already skinny as hell. He's not allowed to cut weight. If I catch him intentionally trying to keep his weight down wrestling goes bye bye. He likes doing it but for me it sucks balls. I didn't do it as a kid so have no interest in it and one of the worst ways I can imagine spending an entire Saturday is in a gym watching 8 hours of other kids wrestling to see mine do it for 9 minutes. Those tourneys suck and are waaaay to damn long.

Brisket, baby backs, beef ribs, a flat of pastrami my buddy brined, and chicken wings. I do alot of smoking. Not as often as I used too though. Few years ago me and 2 buddies did some contests around the state. Didn't do too bad. Got calls at all but 1 and our best was in Marietta where we placed 3rd in ribs, 6th in pork butt, and 10th in chicken. Never did shit with brisket which has always puzzled me. Our brisket is money......I think our problem was wrapping it and losing the bark.

drank beer with buddies and ran the smokers all day......matter of fact that's the same thing I did yesterday too....and the day before

my boy started this year at 13. He's way behind the other kids getting such a late start but he loves doing it. He gets his ass kicked on a regular basis but does have a couple wins this year which really isn't bad considering his age and being his first year. Most of the kids he wrestles have a 5-6 year head start on him. He'll do open mat stuff after the season is over and we're going to send him to camp this summer. I expect him to be much improved next season.
