Wow - you are busier, in a good way, then the combined effort of everyone I know. Good for you!!

LOVE your choice of bikes - you have covered the motorcycle spectrum. I have 4 guitars upstairs, and I have never successfully completed a B Minor on any of them.

In addition to my responsibility of posting inane comments on public forums I also dig bicycles in a pretty big way. I currently own 4, and I ride throughout the year with bikes focused on specific tasks. Like the canoe quiver, we sometimes find that odd project that compels us to bring it...

Wabakimi was a fun study of paying attention to campsites. Sometimes flagged, often times not, you rounded up your Spidey senses and learned to look for anything that MIGHT be a campsite or it could be missed. Don't get me started their portages. However - Rocks. Big rocks. As...

Wow! That is freakin' cool. Congrats!!

"Even the open road—that last bastion of freedom—now demands a reservation. Gone are the days when you could set off on a whim." Love Kevin's stuff but will take a different path here. While researching the long trip a couple of years back my plan had been to drive up to Yellow Knife and then...

I used to do the pill box thing - pain in the arse. I started bringing 2 identical sets in just a screw top bottle but with an antidesicant (sp) in there. Works great - one in my dry box and one in my barrel. For the border I peel labels off my pills, slap them on a 8 x 11 and have one...

Black Fly's post above reminded me of something a urologist told me regarding getting checked. In short, lie. Yup - he said if you are concerned about it tell your Dr. your dad's brother had it and they will allow you to get checked. In my first round I was the youngest guy in the waiting...

That is too bad Gerald. Joining the group that nobody wants to join, but somehow manages to wrangle in way to many new members every year. Good luck. I have mentioned it before - maybe even this thread - but get your numbers checked without fail. Just feeling good isn't enough - I...

So are you saying that about 15,000 articles written by fisheries biologists world-wide are all wrong? Dead floating fish are often times consumed quite quickly by scavengers. Having a back-ground in outdoor sports provided me with the opportunity to conduct more fishing events that you...

Your lead off statement - "I like to fish with ultralight tackle, it makes small fish a lot more fun to fight. You catch a lot more small fish than large ones, so..." Your response is the exact same thing every person who admits to using ultralight gear for larger species provides. And...

Please bear in mind Rusty, that your preferred method of fishing ultra-light tackle results in higher mortality rates of fish. They are played too long, lactic acid builds in their system, and while they appear to swim away at fights end it is a descent to the bottom where many die. For...

Are you referring to the one in the UP? I would contact the appropriate DNR office for verification. Many downed trees around.

Through discussions on this site I eventually wound up getting the TG-G. I like ALMOST everything about it except one thing - it is as slippery as an eel. Now this is most likely my own personal issue, but I don't bring it on trips any more. It has been moved into "family camera" detail...

I'm am going to save $20 per year to compensate Glenn for my inability to use a proper heading on my posts. Seriously, I commend you in a huge way for doing this. I couldn't do it if my life depended on it, plus I don't have the patience to deal with people like me. A hearty THANK YOU to...
