What an amazing, fun, outstanding day this was! I took my brother and his two daughters, ages 5 and 9, out onto Lake Erie, right where the Straights of Detroit meets the Lake. The silver (white) bass are running hard. It was two fish PER MINUTE, solid, for 3 hours. The girls got tired, sore...

This is "free fishing" weekend in Michigan. There is no license required to fish in here today or tomorrow, June 8 and 9. It includes all Michigan waters and all species. If you are here this weekend, and like to fish, take advantage of this.

I have caught fish, PLENTY of fish, every time I went out since I have been home. Was out on the Straights today, we caught walleye, catfish, sheephead, silver (white) bass, rock bass and white perch. I fished today with my Dad and Brother. Between the 3 of us we caught well over 100 fish. We...

OK, all you waterfowl hunters. Click on the link below and read the PDF from Ducks Unlimited on spring nesting conditions. Last year saw a record number of breeders and this year conditions are even BETTER! All the hard work over the last 75 years is paying off. Looks like a banner year...

I just LOVE paying for all this JUNK! Now we, and zillions of others, are getting HOS violations when we are out of service. Something about a change put in by Qualcom that requires drivers to log off the Clink when we are going to be off for more that 14 hours. On TOP of that we cannot do post...

Got my new sonar/GPS/Map system. It is a Lowrance Elite-7 HDI, 200/83- 400/800 transducer with the Navionics Gold package. I also now have a compass on the boat. Next step is to tie the GPS into my VHF radio for auto-distress capability. I am getting there slowly but surely.

THIS is how health care costs will be cut and service will improve. EVERY doctor/clinic/hospital should do this. Put control of health care back into the hands of the doctors and the patients. This doctor has guts and the RIGHT idea! Government MANDATED health care is NOT the answer. Freedom is...

It don't get much better! Spent several hours on the Straights of Detroit and Lake Erie yesterday. I got to fish with a former employee and friend. Jim, who was in high school when he worked for me and is now a lawyer, spent the day with me. Nice young man, great to see how he grew up. We got...

54 our of 64 Colorado sheriffs have sued to stop the Colorado anti-Constitutional pro criminal gun laws. I don't think they can win but at least they are trying to fight the leftist BS. One thing they forgot to mention was that these laws are absolutely, beyond a doubt, unenforceable. Unless...

The Detroit Red Wings, a team who many said would not even make the playoffs, finished off the Ducks in game 7 by a score of 3-2. The Ducks were the second seed. Now it's on to take on the Hawks. This MAY be a good series but I believe this is where the Wings season ends. It is, however, the...

The Detroit Red Wings won again, in overtime for the 4th time in the series, send it back to California for a game seven. Not bad for a busted up team with a line with 3 rookie starters on it! The big "Z" had two goals tonight including the game winner. One of the best series I can remember in...

Who does ALGORE have to blame on this? It has happened before, it will happen again. The article describes a WARM arctic, not all that long ago in "G" time. Even with C02 levels that were only slightly higher than what we have now. Cycle warm, cycle cold, etc etc etc. Ice Cores Reveal Green...

$15 per hour? To flip burgers? Are they NUTS? What is wrong with people today? A union? At McDonald's? I bet my no good for nuthin' Obama bum brother was there! :D:p HE believes that NO ONE should own a small business. That there should ONLY be large, government approved businesses and that...

Our Governor in Michigan signed into law a new PRO-HUNTING law that takes affect now. It gives the DNR the power to run our hunting and fishing solely based on sound science and takes away the power from the goof balls like PETA and The American Humane Society and other sleaze like them. It...

In days of old there used to be live television shows. Many of those shows would sing religious songs, hymns. It was a time when we could allow children to not only watch TV but participate, without worry about what they may see or hear. The combination often led to some wonderful TV. The link...

I have posted a link to a VERY interesting OP-ED in the WSJ from back in January. It echos what many sane people have been saying for a very long time. Control laws do NOT work. They often, as in this case, can lead to an INCREASE in crime and crime rates. There ARE better ways. It is obvious...

As expediters we get a chance to see different parts of the country that many of us would not see otherwise. It is one of the greatest draws of this business. With that comes a potential down side, regional illnesses. When we go into strange areas we can expose ourselves to diseases that we...

I truly hope that they find the "woman", and I use the term VERY loosely, is that just DUMPED her new born baby girl on the beach and prosecute her to the ninth degree. This "person" is one sorry excuse of a human being. At the VERY LEAST it should be made sure that this can NEVER happen again...

OK, I am in AZ, it's HOT and my AC is out. :mad: I am talking about the truck AC not the APU. I had it in a shop last week. They checked the freon levels and it was down. It was at 2.76 when 3.50 is required. I had them vacuum out the system, do a leak test and refill the system. It passed the...
