Important words, OBJ. I just spent 4 days at the Indy 500 with about 20 or 25 of my best friends aged about 50-70 (I'm the 70) and not a grown up in the bunch. More darn fun.

You hit it right on the head bassman......MORE DARN FUN. The original group of 8 that I went fishing with twice a year to John Kerr Reservoir are all but gone. Ages ranged from late 50's to very late 60's at the start. I was the youngest. NO one ever grew up. You can't right books about stuff like that. Sweet memories to savor forever.
