good to see your post, Wiz, i've only been a member since June of this year, but i run off at the keyboard, so now people think i am like, God or something.
since i HAVE been a member (starting with one tumbler) i've accumulated several tumblers, a couple hundred weight of rock, a 6" trim saw, a Genie diamond Pacific Grinder, a 10 inch tile saw.........and now lusting for a REAL slab saw..
are you sure you want to come back? this could be hazardous to your pocket book......

Sands. Way to go. I remember way back when, when I was on an head boat out of Hampton Beach New Hampshire. It came down to two of us. I had an Haddock, and the other was a Sea Bass. The Sea Bass won. On the trip back in to the dock, the Sea Bass started dumping brand new fishing weights on the deck while he was waiting to be filleted. I was only five, and I had clearly won. The sportsman with the Sea Bass put up a fight and it got ugly. He kept the money but I was proclaimed the winner! What was a five year old going to do with five bucks anyway. It was the first thing I had ever won and I felt like a King! I never forgot. Neither will she. She won't remember your name but she might remember how decent things were. I bet your Flounder was the best tasting ever. You did a good thing. I am proud. I am gonna take Jenne on an head boat here one of these days. She hasn't been in over 20yrs. We deserve it. Maybe I will get her to flash all the tourists on the boat. Nah, she will kill me. I have to sleep sometime.

You and your dad makes me smile. My father committed suicide. He was always finding ways of telling me, the world would have been a better place if you had not been born. He was a rich person, living off of Daddys money. He never did a days work in his life. He was quick to tell people how it should be done right however. I am really glad you and your dad had that time together. It makes a difference. I would have loved to have watched you let that gal win. That makes you a winner, big time.

Hey wiz, it's funny that you posted just now. I was just thinking about you and how I hadn't heard from you in a while. In fact, not since the Stanley Cup! Not having my hockey is just about killing me. It's the only thing on TV that I care to watch.
Hope to hear more from you and hope you and your family are doing well and have a Merry Christmas!

Hey, wiz, welcome back if even for just a few posts. I expect you are going to be plenty busy the next few weeks or so with the move. Sheesh, I wouldn't wish that on anybody! But, when you get everything done and those tumblers rolling again, I expect we'll all still be here. This place really has grown. I joined in Jan too and there weren't even 200 members. you ol' bucket mouth ... no wait, that's what we called 'em on the cb's. LOL! You are a redneck, ain't cha? Speaking of flounder, my mom and I went to a seafood restaurant in Corpus Christi one night and she ordered flounder. She had never had it and was looking forward to trying it. When the server set that plate down in front of her and that big flounder eye was starting up at her, she freaked and her eyes got as big as saucers! Needless to say, she didn't eat it. She thought she would be getting fillets of some sort and just couldn't eat him with him staring at her. It was pretty funny. Then she got mad at me for not telling her that's the way they were served! Sheesh, I didn't know either because I had never eaten flounder at a restaurant. My girlfriend's husband had always gone out, caught them and fixed the up -without the eye! llana
