The connector? It sure is. Message me your address and I'll get it out to you.

I think that there's an assumption that everything will be scrutinized closely for waste. This is mistaken. What's happening now, and we've only seen the tip of the iceberg, is that federal employees are being fired simply because they are in a probationary period and they are vulnerable. Moreover, this means that if you took a new position within an agency where you've served for 30 years, you're fired. I have some insight into what's happening now at NIH and it's not pretty. They are losing the best of the best. It's not scrutiny, it's wholesale slaughter. Since nothing can be legally scheduled unless it's in the Federal Registry, all grant reviews, council meetings, any forum where the institutes might push back are illegal. There has been a mass call for resignations at the top. As a biomedical researcher, it's catastrophic. As an American, it's mind boggling to me that anyone would support this. It will filter down, and things will not be better for it. Before anybody tees off on me, remember my friends, I'm conservative and a Republican. This is not a liberal attacking from the outside. This is an independent thinker who is horrified by what's happening. Yes, I have a vested interest, but those who know me know that I always try to put others before myself. As I said, I know what's going on at NIH. I'm hearing that the same is true nearly everywhere, including national parks, federally funded conservation or research organizations, ad nauseum. I really want what's best for the country, I just can't see how we get from here to there.

For panfish guys, this is the bomb. One word of warning...don't use it to cut through dirty ice. Buddy of mine dulled his in minutes on Braddocks this weekend where the sand had blown onto and into the ice. The blades can be resharpened, but there are only three guys who are authorized to do it - I use Frank DeLuca in MN. But particularly with the small blade this thing will cut through like it's butter.

Crazy it's been four years already. Rest in peace

Gone

When I list something as free, it's like folks think it's junk or something. Au contraire, mon frere. These things are almost new. They're a few years old, but practically unused. Rossignol Venture x4 xcountry skis 160 cm with women's eu42 size boots and poles. Pick up in Rush NY or East Fork marina only. PM me and I will list these as sold once they're gone. PS. They won't work well for a Smitty Sled...or I'd have kept them lol. You want downhill skis for that.

Crazy good year! Treasure the memories!

I had a half rack four pop out today that I almost popped thinking that he was a she - until "they" turned a bit and I saw the other side. Contrary to many, my deer are still playing hide-and-seek. Very few daytime sightings, little movement. That fat broad has started humming.

I was going to ask to be Tommy's friend (no benefits, sorry), but I got beat to the punch. Krystel and I did dinner yesterday with Paul Willey and his wife Tania; as many know, Paul tracks and his dogs Volt and Iggy do a damn good job of it. Some of the stories he shared regarding the misinformation and blatant insistence from guys who called him that they know right where the deer went, or how to run a track, or even where they hit it (which 50% of the time is just dead wrong) is simply astonishing. The degree to which folks will flat out lie to get a tracker is similarly astonishing. No tracker does it for the money, but some of the interactions he's had with hunters after he's traveled two hours and spent half a day tracking are crazy too. Crazy insulting sometimes. I just don't get it. Arguing with somebody who does this two or even three times a day, trashing their expertise, then calling the next day begging them to come out again cause you couldn't find it grid searching. Hunting during the track. I could go on and on...these aren't all Paul, but he runs with a group of other trackers who share stories. And let me tell you, between you, me and the walls, if you piss one of these guys off, you are not going to find somebody to track for you in the future. So, at the risk of sounding preachy, respect your tracker. Treat them right. Try to learn something. And don't be, "that guy". And if you choose wisely in the stand, you will likely never need their help. But if you do, they'll be there.

I will take this Manny. I can Venmo you and get it literally at any point. I go through one of these per year. I will text you.

Overpriced lol! I always find that when I try to give stuff away on here there's a bunch of suspicion, but if I ask a really great price, guys hop all over it. Jeff just got rid of some POS scope that came with his new 7mm and put a 4-16x 44mm Vortex on it. What a difference. Hopefully somebody puts these two to good use.
