The greatest job in the world is waiting for me (not sure what or where it is...but I am staying positive) for when I am able to return to work. 1 week from today I return to my doctor for what I hope will be fantastic news. I got a family that loves me and the prettiest little Jack Russell Terrier in the world that adores and worships the ground that her dad walks on...


Thanks B....your right....life is good....alot better than the way others live...no doubt. I needed that eye opener my friend.
Your ridiculous, i would rather be unemployed then deal with the crap that I deal with everyday

You need a kick in the face not an eye opener

Man, I was gonna give you 5-1 on who catches the biggest mother****ing fish. And I ain't never been deep-sea fishing. The only fish I ever caught were carp out of the ****ing Rouge River in Detroit.

And it ain't all good. Just lost my biggest client yesterday and I think Bubba's anal gland problem is flaring up. Dog just scooted like 20 feet across the living room. Funniest g-damn thing you can see. Unless it's on your rug.

That anal gland is with smaller dogs right? We have a 1 year old cokkapoo and the comedy thing that does that all the time, drives me nuts because I am used to our golden retriever

I am down with 5/1 on the biggest fish, you know GPK would bust out a shoe or bucket or some crap, what we need to do is go SHARK fishing, i am TOTALLY down for that, and don't care how much it will cost

Bubba's 60 pounds, so I don't know. When the vet reached in there and took out .... indescribable.

I'm way for the shark fishing. I'll start developing relationships with these people... http://groups.msn.com/SouthFloridaSharkFishingClub

It's starting to happen.... here's my email to Captain Sharky:

Dear Capt Sharky,

I'd like to explore going for either a 1/2 day or full
day outing sometime early next year. There'd be 3 or
4 of us. One guy says he is "All About" deep sea
fishing. The other guy probably thinks fishing is
ordering the "Whaler combo meal" at Burger King but
wants to fish for Shark. I'm somewhere in between.
We have no gear, so we'd need that. I checked out the
website. Is it just as simple as finding a date that
works and going from there? Any chance you have a
sattelite internet connection onboard?

Thanks.

Bruce

Have ya'll seriously never been offshore???

unreal....out in the middle of the Atlantic....2-2.5 hours from shore....nothing in view but beautiful ocean water, as far as your eyes can see. I recommend everyone do it once in their life....and none of that half day bullsh*t....night enough time to drink beer on the half day trips.

There is absolutely no way you are going to get a response if you really sent this....I am the a serious fisherman, Grandparents used to have a house up at Lake Summerset (Rockford area) and I was bass/walleye/crappie fishing every weekend.

SO DOWN with this, it would have to be FOY weekend, that is when I am going to make my way down there

No corn meal....throw some chum overboard (in this case, we can throw my chum Scavs over) and get the fish stiring.....then just use other bits of fish, etc....for bait.

take the right guy, hide his dramamine, and he'll do the chumming for you!

i grew up saltwater fishing, it's a blast! that and hockey are the only things i miss about living down here now. have to settle for the freshwater...bass are ok. but nothing like fighting with what you can't see for what seems forever, and you're hoping like hell it's a big flounder, and then you pull up a shark. now there's adrenaline for ya!
