    Dog dreams

    With all the dog owners on this site, maybe some of you have the same experience. My Buster dreams and when it happens, it totallly cracks me up! It starts with little woofs and whines, then the legs start twitching, along with REM's. I wonder how many squirels or rabbits he's caught! Or...

    My first rant (on iboats)

    If anyone in the K.C. area needs a plumber, DO NOT CALL POOR JOE'S PLUMBING! We had our kitchen sink back up, so I try to snake it first with my 25' hand snake. No luck there as I could not get it past the first 90 degree bend. One of my best friends is a maintenece man for about 4 apt...

    Oh, what a feelin'!

    A buddy of mine wanted to run som gas though his 10 hp Johnson (year unknown) so I clamped it on my 14' tinny which has recently had the 9.5 mid 80's Evinrude kindly removed (Thank you, thieves) from it's transom. So, I clamp this motor on, get to the lake, and after a few pulls, it's...

    18 hp Evinrude

    Okay, I'll probably really get it for this one. Recently I had my 9.9 Evinrude stolen. (Tip: Record you serial #'s) Turns out I can get an 18 hp Evinrude - not sure on the year - for next to nothing. My 14' aluminum v-hull is rated for 16. How terrible would it be to hang that 18 on the...

    Red-eyed crappie?

    Went out Memorial weekend and caught a few nice sized crappie and bass. One of the crappie had red eyes! Is this common? I am still learning each time I go out, and I thought this was odd. Anybody else caught any red-eyes?
