[quote]There are many companies out there making an absolute killing with a 100% remote workforce. It’s very doable if you hire adults.[/quote] Managing people is the secret to success for a business that requires people. The problem is that management tends to come from yes men among us, kin fo...
No. Men's basketball barely covers cost at most schools. No one cares because its just not worth attention. Football is, for a myriad of reasons, popular in the US. Everything else is just a distraction until football rolls around. ...
[quote]Regardless of what you use, if you have treble hooks on them, cut them off. You'll lose a few more fish, but what you'll gain is not snagging on every rock every other cast...[/quote] Good tip. I usually mash the barb down also, especially with stockers, because it is more likely the fish...

[quote]First, know your water. Most trout rivers do not allow live bait. Some do not allow any kind of fishing except for fly fishing.[/quote] Artificials only does not mean fly fishing only...spinnerbaits and plastic grubs and even small crankbaits are allowed in most areas unless it is specific...
[quote] In the NC mountains, you can toss a large night crawler alive with a Carolina rig and let the current carry it down or leave it. However I have a great story from WV where I was below tue Bluestone dam and saw five or six women wading with buckets. They were letting helgramites grab t...
Light spinning rod, 4 - 6 pound test and a black and gold panther martin. Works better than the long rod 9 out of 10 times and works from Poland to Washington State at lease, from personal experience. Folks will wrinkle their nose at you on famous trout water but if its legal a panther martin will...
[quote]We had a few trees in our yard when I was a kid. Good memories for sure. My dad and his folks love using the worms. I always thought crickets were better.[/quote] Agreed....crickets are better for bluegill but not as a good as a pink worm for big shellcrackers. We used to stop on the way...
No. Haven't used one for about 55 years since I quit taking baths. Got the shower routine down to less than 5 minutes, start to finish. Loofahs are nasty as hell and unless wash clothes are sanitized (not just machine washed) they are nearly as bad. I know where my hands have been, I have no ide...
[quote]Different events in different settings. No mystery. One blocked access to a river for a single day. The other blocked off multiple streets and sometimes the freeway over the course of 4-5 days.[/quote] One of them was downtown while the other was in the 'burbs...but traffic during the raft...
[quote]If that’s anywhere near the dam, that water is cold AF year round.[/quote] About 35 miles from Buford dam to the starting point (river miles) but in May the 'Hooch is COLD anywhere from Buford to Franklin Georgia. It is uncomfortably cold to about Douglas County year round. The area wher...
[quote] No fighting or shooting back then[/quote] There was fighting. Do not recall any shootings but fights were not uncommon.......
[quote]What time did they start fightin and shootin[/quote] Do not remember any shooting but fighting would start on the way to the river and would go on sporadically throughout the entire weekend. It was Atlanta in the 70s and 80s....rednecks and beer....pretty girls eerywhere. Fighting was a ...
Freaknic and the Ramblin' Raft Race share some common traits...both were started as a fun way for local college kids and Greek organizations to do something together that did not cost a lot of money and grew into wild, out of control events with corporate sponsors and the making of money being the m...
It was a blast and it was a pretty big deal. It also caused a helluve mess in the "back yards" of some of the most expensive real estate in the SE. The folks that owned property along the route did not care for it all. Like most things the participants ruined it by trashing up the place and runni...
[quote]Yes, per capita and overall are two different stats. Very good. I was quoting total players. Thanks for the analysis.[/quote]. Yes and a similar sized population, a little less than 5% larger, produces 4 times as many NFL players as Florida does. Why is Florida lagging behind so badly? ...
[quote] There’s more NFL players from the state of Florida than anywhere in the country.[/quote] The ONLY reason this is true is because there are 22 million people in Florida (or whatever the number is. Per capita Georgia is tops for producing NFL Talent with Louisiana a close second followed by...
What time is it in Dallas? TEN TO NINE! GO DAWGS!...
It took Florida what, 60, 70 years to do what Georgia,LSU,Alabama,Auburn,Georgia Tec, TULANE,Ole Miss….am I forgetting anyone….oh yeah, Kentucky…..had done at least once and most of them had done it multiple times. It was the lack of air conditioning. Once AC was invented in the 1990s folks could...

[quote]Fantastic car. Back in the day when Ford didn't make garbage[/quote] Facts. Has a STRONG cult following….folks in the know will pay A BUNCH for the right ones but all of them are about bulletproof. I sold one 3 years ago….2010….,for $15k. It only had 60k on it. I bought it from a famil...
