May 1st opening day on this watershed. We nicknamed this lake HEARTBREAK Lake. We’ve had some great days fishing this lake and then there’s all those other days lol. Today was a great one all together the 2 of us hooked 9 fish released 3 lost 2 and kept 4. We took home 2 Brown trout and 2 landlocked Salmon. The limit is 2 fish each ant combos the 2 species. The bench the 4 fish are sitting on is 22 inches for comparison.

I really enjoy to fly for fun and work our office has DJI Mavic Pro with Thermal Dji matrice 300 with thermal (the big money) dji phantom 4 pro (the tank) I have a dji phantom 3pro (my tank) only tried the Goggles once but was fun. Very nice looking Kit, i think you will need one more battery. watch some tranning videos

My younger brother and his business partner own this company in Canada. They have stores and warehouses in 3 Canadian provinces and a large mail order clientele. They’ve made a living out of playing with the toys they love! He can do some amazing things with these drones. Needless to say I’ve watched some awesome videos. I can’t even drive one of their RC cars. https://www.greathobbies.com/

Nice homage to your ancestors! TBB. Wow, remember when 99% percent of your posts were about hxtr, large animals and the Asian masseuses you use to visit 3 times a week looking for happy endings? lol. Kudos to you though

missed due dubble shift

and a few new pens

I bought a smoker about 5 month ago, honestly just set it up about one month ago. Got it on discount.. $400 off retail because it was missing a $20 leg. I finally purchased the leg and set it up.. I’m not disappointed! The results so far.. Generally I have smoked to desired temp, then switch to the grill to sear adding my bbq sauce mixture. Some of the first ones I seared then on to the stove and wrapped.. I didn’t end up like wrapping them like I would off the grill. So I started searing on the grill. Then let rest. I’m still learning, but it has all teased great. Meats in pictures include TriTip, boneless chicken breast and bacon wrapped chicken with cheese inside. IMG_8348.MOV

...& it's usefulness as an indicator of cognitive skillsets & ability of the brain to prevent cognitive decline. The relationship & influence of the brain on the hand & vice-versa is well-explained & a great example of the complex interplay of the influences of our environment & our chosen behaviors on our evolution. I find the longer ring finger & enjoying logic & problem solving to be accurate in my case.

An illustration by Zina Deretsky, National Science Foundation, depicting Tiktaalik roseae, the extinct limbed fish that flopped its way onto land one day 375 million years ago. It may not be the worst of times, but it is certainly not the best of times. The pandemic has no end in sight. The world is warming, the seas are rising and polar bears are barreling toward extinction Also: taxes, the 9-to-5 workweek, the renewed threat of nuclear war. As people looked for someone to blame besides themselves and all of humanity, a culprit emerged in the form of a fish, specifically the 375-million-year-old Tiktaalik (pronounced tic-TAH-lick). Our modern woes would never have existed if our ancestors had never left the water, the reasoning went. Tiktaalik’s four whispers of feet made the fish an easy target Scientists may never know exactly why fish like Tiktaalik and early tetrapods — vertebrates with four limbs — moved onto land, said Alice Clement, an evolutionary biologist and paleontologist at Flinders University in South Australia. “Was it to seek out more food, escape predators in the water, find a safe haven for their developing young?” Clement asked. Regardless, their legacy is enormous. The group of fish that moved onto land gave rise to almost half of all vertebrates today, including all amphibians, reptiles, birds, mammals and us. And although we probably cannot trace our family tree directly back to Tiktaalik, “an animal very much like Tiktaalik was a direct ancestor of humans,” said Julia Molnar, an evolutionary biomechanist at the New York Institute of Technology. If Tiktaalik is our ancestor, then perhaps our holding it accountable for the chaos it sowed is an expression of love. Other scans revealed the delicate bones of its pectoral fin. Unlike the symmetrical rays of fish fins, Tiktaalik’s fin bones were noticeably asymmetrical, which allowed the joints to bend in one direction. “We think that was because these animals were interacting with the ground,” said Thomas Stewart, an incoming evolutionary and developmental biologist at Penn State University.

I know right now at 5:57 am it’s only 36F. We didn’t see any mosquitos lol! The forecast calls for a few days at 59F this week! Very balmy

Freaking old pot smoker! show some respect for TBB bitch lol, how are you doing these days Budman? Still fucked up as usual?

Heck yes! Very nice @WeednFeed! Now if it would just warm up a bit!!!

Great hats, love the camo!

a few he says

NICE!!! I have a very small cheap one I use to fly over my model railroad

I have a DJI Mavic but don't fly all that often. I need to get my Part 107 so I can use it commercially with my photography business

That explains a lot...

FANTASTIC!!! The only thing I know how to smoke was finally made legal in New Joisey!!! From now on - starting with @Timmah! - if you post all this great food you have to share! Don't worry - @BUDMAN will bring the beer!!!

For the "Cottage" It's a single building with the 5 rooms in it, 2 floors and most of the rooms are on the first floor. Also if you look at some of the details of the main house it has an elevator as well, if that makes any difference and I have no further specifics on that. Cottage rooms: First Floor: 1 – “DOWN SOUTH” - 2 Queen beds, door to porch, private bath (tub and shower) 2- “BACK EAST” - 1 Double bed, window to woods, with shared (tub and shower) bath 3- “UP NORTH” - 1 Queen bed, window to woods and creek, private ½ bath and access to bath with tub and shower. 4 - “OVER YANDER” - 1 Queen bed, window to street and woods, with shared baths (tub and shower) Second Floor: 5- “OUT WEST” - 1 King, 4 Twins, 1 twin swing bed, with private bath with shower

A quick note to anyone wanting to share a room - please make those arrangements prior to Saturday's payment process, because rooms will need to be paid in full in order to select one

Well, after much thought and planning, @Gatorgirland I will be attending. Realizing that the house has the appropriate name and safe word in place.. And knowing that @Roxy! And @WldPenguinwould need some supervision, I just knew it was the right thing to do... And yes, we will be bringing pool toys.. Let the party begin..

if you ride to xifest with jim he will get an xi purple heart award after that ride

I forget also. However, I do know it was prior to September of 2009. The XI website was overhauled then and our original dates were all set to 2009! Duc broke it! LOL

@YACCsterThanks for the inquiry. If I can make it, it will be a shorter notice and I'll hotel it or if there's a room to share later, maybe that. I've been reluctant to post this, but some of you will recall my wife Debbie was just recovering from a lung cancer surgery at the XI Fest at Niagra Falls in 2017. And you all surprised her with a birthday cake at the XI Fest in Carolina! She was cancer free for four years, but unfortunately returned this past October in the way of a metastasized tumor in her head and one in her lung again. After radiation, we are happy to say both have reduced in size and they say there is currently no active cancer. Also good, no chemo. So it's been slow recovery, getting her energy back, but still requires oxygen. She has told me to go meet you all without her, but too many unknowns until then. More testing in early June, so we'll see. Nice find @Ruggerxi! It looks like a great place to par-tay! Folks, please don't hijack this thread with sympathies - send a PM, if you must. @Ruggerxi

Lets see who was at our last fest and hasn't commented here yet? @LtLaszlo @ICEMANXI @Raisin @bobbarker @Syckle @MtDeW and those who expressed interest @Hoth @Hawk @Bogleg @MordBlack @SGTSmeg @CrazyGirl @Bosun @B-Murda @PnBear @Demonio @Ov3rKi11 @BUDMAN @Chris @crimson and of course @Icequeen

How many times??

I was released from the psych ward!!!

Pete must be at least 200 years old by now Joe. LOL

Haha are you not supposed to be hibernating @Joe Canadian it is winter lol...Even odder (<---is that a word) you wish the pimp happy birthday as if he has only had one lmao...Happy Fu Day to all !

What the hell? Where have you been you crazy bastard you! It’s just not the same without infecting the dam place lol

My heart is at a loss to image a time where he will not be here. He was one of those few individuals who you just liked the first time you met him. Himself , phantom and Dizzle were the ones who encouraged me to join XI in early 2007. You maybe gone my old friend but you will never be forgotten. Pete (Ter)

Bart was one of a kind, a very special man who was respected and loved by almost everyone. I was lucky enough to have Bart as a friend from the very beginning of XI. His humor/laugh, and his kindness, added enjoyment to every game he played. Bart always had positive things to say and if one crossed that line he would address the issue in politeness and firmness when required. Struggling to imagine a XI gameplay without Bart, words cannot describe this emptiness. Bart you will never be forgotten, RIP my friend.

Spoke with Blackbart Monday 16th @10:00 am: It is so incredibly hard to share this heartbreaking news. The doctors did not think Bart would make it though Sunday night, but he did. They are sending him home to hospice and be with his family. We are going to lose another incredible Idiot, and it hurts badly. Their is a bit of good news, Bart said is wife is improving at this time. Bart wanted you; the Extreme Idiot's to know that he is very proud and very much loved being a part of you and this group. And that he cherished all the great memories and people he has meet over time, and was able to interact with, over the past 15 years. He also wanted me to mention a special thanks to Rugger awesome leadership, which he thinks was instrumental in creating and keeping Extreme Idiots as a very awesome place, to just have fun. Those of us who were lucky enough to have interacted with Bart, will feel like another big piece of them is missing. As all of us, have felt, as other awesome Idiots have fallen over the years past.

Oh no... I'm going to keep them in my prayers and hope for a miracle too. They can happen with all of our prayers and huge family.

He's still with us - one of the best - always enjoyed interacting with him - hopefully both he and his way make it - besides - the last thing the man upstairs needs is another >IDIOT< roaming around.

I just got the message and it breaks my heart. Bart has been a part of the fabric and made this clan special. I don’t wish to imagine a time where he is not around. My thoughts and prayers are with him and his family the next several days.

Praying for both. Bart is a special guy and has been here since I started. We chatted in game and out on various things. I don't have words at this point.

I am so sad that it has gotten to this part in his life! Prays to Bart and your wife! I had many good chats with Bart and with the time I got to know him! A great man and father, brother and husband! Prays to you and your family!!

Come on Bart you’re still here, pull out a miracle and prove these drs wrong. Praying for you buddy!

All I can say is heart breaking. But Still praying hard that it doesn’t have to be that way and that he will pull through. Have played online with him for years and it’s funny but he pretty much feels like family after so much time together playing and talking

I've known and played with Bart since day one. Had many, many late night games and general conversations. Im really at a loss for words, other than "We love you !! B-Man"
