If they are alive and healthy it is a blessing and worth whatever the cost. Love them and do the best you can for them. It will all be worth it.

I hate targeting as it is now and think it should be egregious to be called and just be a 15 yard penalty.

I think “half the distance” penalties should be applied equally to offense and defense. If holding on the defense from the 5 only moves the offense up 2.5 yards. Holding on the offense from the 5 should only move them back 2.5 yards.

Nebraska, Kansas, and Wisconsin are better. Mississippi, WV, and NV are a wash. Switch cheese curds with crawfish and Wisconsin is pretty similar to the good parts. Everyone has a 30+ BMI, drinks heavily, hunts, fishes and loves football. Minus the fattys I’d put Wisconsin in the top 10.

Winn Dixie coconut pecan. The heath bar ones are top notch as well

Something I like about being able to keep the paper ticket to know I was there. It’s part of the magic

FFS is not good for bass fishing or tackle sales. All anyone wants to buy is jig heads and plastic minnows. It also prices the average fisherman out of the tournament arms race. There needs to be separate divisions or tournaments for FFS and we are starting to see that separation

Always put a small amount of mono or copolymer before spooling on your braid on spinning reels to eliminate slipping. On bait casters it’s a little known secret to spool some braid first which makes the spool spin faster initially if you are going to main spool with mono or copolymer. 15 years professionally fishing and this was the standard but I’ve been out ten years or so maybe it’s changed as it often does. But this was pretty much what everyone did 10 years ago when I cared enough to to be that meticulous.

Don’t fry bacon in the nude

The winter isn’t that bad when you compare how awesome the summers are. Diversity is also not a strength in Iowa which seems to positively affect pretty much every thing else. I’m headed to Louisiana tomorrow to take my boys fishing for four days which is the highlight of our year and we do it every year. Iowa is literally Mayberry but the fishing is awful which kills me. My property tax is also close to $15k a year and the state income tax sucks but it seems to keep out the undesirables. My car insurance and home owners is extremely cheap so I guess it all washes. I got my parents a place up here and they only go back for 2-3 months a year and absolutely love it up here. It’s boring but you don’t have to worry with many of the things in Louisiana. I still love my home state and miss it all the time but I’m not sure I could live there again unless I retired in Grand Isle or something but I’m leaning more towards Fort Myers.

Dolce Gabbana. I used to have to get it from Europe in the 90’s but now it’s easy to find. It’s different and chicks dig it. No reason to change
