Only actually spoke to throwing away the black sabiki. All other gear, stinky as it remains, has been saved for grouper and/OR catfishing!

Dang, had actually forgotten you mooched off me at my house too! Getting old and forgetting to accurately keep score sucks.

One man's mooching is another man's humble acceptance of hospitality.

Hilarious thread. reminds me of what My uncle repeated when I got on his boat "rub your nose and give two winks, save us from this awful jinx" He watched too much andy griffith.

BBG, I suppose you could look at this as gear drift?

Somebody's got to pay.

One of the funniest multi-threads in a while. Don't stop now.

You know Marine, I been meaning to have a school circle with you about that. I know it couldn't be our rank that scare you. It couldn't be having to share your boat all day with an "Air Winger" and a "Grunt" cause you said you had a "Combat MOS." Soooooo..... Devil Dog, What's your major malfunction!

Wolfeman. Just in case you've never heard it, the saying goes "A Marine. No Better Friend. No Worst Enemy."

Definition.

No better friend: someone who will kill to protect you; someone who will give their life for you; someone who will be right there in your times of trouble and, thinking of you and your problems, will sacrifice so that you might get through your problem.

No worst enemy: someone who will not hesitate to destroy you even if that means destroying himself in the process; someone who will chase you down to the ends of the earth to extract revenge; someone who will cause you blood and tears and smile when it happens.

BBG lives and works with a bunch of women - obviously he's picked up on the wHine and drama!

No good deed goes unpunished !
