The fishing tourneys that come through the lock are catch, weigh-in, and release. They all go back below the lock... Weigh-in, then a few boats come back upbound and dump their live wells with all the fish that was weighed in. If you doctor up the fish you're gonna kill it, right? Here's one tourney, link below. Not sure if they release after weigh-in... They might not come back through lock... But the DNR wants them to release in the waters where they catch them. Funny thing is, the few boats designated to go back north through lock after weigh-in don't go all the way back to Lake Calumet where they caught the fish. They release right by lock so they can turnaround and go right back through south, downbound without having to get caught waiting for the lock to cycle, or worse, stuck behind future commercial barge traffic. The lock is off limits... So all those smallmouth hang around the structure the lock affords... The smallies grow to be monsters there... Probably never to be caught again. Except by me... 😆 https://www.ssrbcircuit.com/copy-of-2021-div-3-lake-calumet (The background wallpaper pic was shot in the lock) Most tournaments have rules that you must use non-piercing cull tags when placing fish in the livewell during the tournament (in order to cull the smallest fish). https://www.mrboatmechanic.com/best-non-puncture-cull-tags/

Why keep rebuilding? Leave it and move to a safer location. People shouldn't live in flood plains and neither should they live in paths of storms. The population growth is unsustainable. Florida needs to stop taking charity and passing their problems on to other more responsible areas. People walked out of the Dust Bowls in the 1930s, they can walk off the coasts in the 2020s. Maybe institute an income tax to fund their own clean ups... The north doesn't ask for snow removal money. I am not trying to be mean, but the danger zones need to be more responsible. The population growth is unsustainable and reckless in these places. Sure, some people can live there, but return the areas to how they handle these storms... As barriers. The incentives to move to these areas is reckless. A premium needs to be charged for living in the path of destruction. Enough is enough.

Yes. And also because the world is impoverished. You only need a foot and a ball. 😉 😜

Headphones. It's irresponsible to open anything around people with the volume up. 😉 😜

Not... Trying to be insensitive, just ripping on Miami Dolphins management:

I posted this numerous times. This is the Milano push. Did they not see this? His hands, clenched and frozen reaching to head. It's not a back injury, he's sitting up, got himself up. This is a pretty damning photo of a person with a concussion. This is before he went to his feet and stammered. He's clenched and adjusting his helmet, clearly clearing the cobwebs away. He isn't reaching to his back!

We'll get somebody to clean that up... We're the ones that gotta clean that up! Anyway... I'd say lock & dam operator... It's so weird and part time that I am doing it right now. 😏

To show how misguided the League is. IMO, he didn't come off as trying to seek attention. And the Bills should be awarded the 19-14 win! 😆 🤣 😂 😏

Yeah... But it's relevant. Shows how misguided League is with real safety.

I really think he doesn't want to talk about his socks or knee pads. He doesn't want to bring it up, IMO... But they keep fining him for ticky-tacky stuff and blow off the big stuff, so it gets brought up. I don't get the vibe he was being an attentionwhore about his socks. It just needed to be stated.

One would only hope. People forget, or didn't see it... Tua's hands did the same thing on Sunday as they did on Thursday. He was just sitting up and the symptoms got lost in the Dolphins blinding obsession for beating the Bills for the first time in 4 years. Dolphins management would have turned him into a vegetable for that win on Sunday. Look at his hands on Sunday: Something is definitely not right with the Dolphins organization... Going back to the Flores lawsuit too. Karma is a MuthaPh**ker... Sadly, Tua the pawn. They can have their ill-gotten win. I simply don't wanna win like this.

Hate him all you want, but Jalen is right: https://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/34703211/worry-player-safety-not-my-socks

What say ye? Young people shouldn't save for retirement. Introduced in the 1950s, FWIW... Whaaaa! 😏 "New research based on the life-cycle model says that people should strive for a consistent standard of living through their lives." "...Put another way, individuals, according to the model which dates back to economists Franco Modigliani, a Nobel Prize winner, and Richard Brumberg in the early 1950s, seek to smooth what economists call their consumption, or what normal people call their spending. ..." https://www.marketwatch.com/story/many-young-people-shouldnt-save-for-retirement-says-research-based-on-a-nobel-prize-winning-theory-11664562570

But they checked the X-Ray Fluoroscope!

It's not the size of the wand, it's the magic in it. 😉 😏

I guess snowstorms within reason... But in the grand scheme of things other natural disasters grossly outweigh a snowstorm. And of course they are using a weighted scale when making these lists. Unless a tree falls through you're living room while your watching TV or your roof collapses... Given technology like modern vehicles with front wheel drive, banking apps, Direct Deposit, etc... Snowstorms have been mitigated much better in modern times. Snow just spreads the pain and inconvenience out over a consistent time period: Winter. A tornado, wild fire, earthquake, hurricane will wipe you out in moments. The snowiest place on earth is on a North Island in Japan. Somehow they live with it, thrive. Don't lose everything they have worked for. Just my $0.02.

Yup. But they don't consider snow a natural disaster. It can be shoveled and it melts.

I posted that above. But the NFL makes you go to YouTube, can't embed it.

Anybody say:

I posted that early on! 😆 You must have missed it. I won't hold it against you. 😉 I thought it was "Three's Company."

Hey @Gugny did your second fav theme ever get mentioned? ?? 😏 "Helper" Emmy Jo was purdy! Hubba hubba! 😊

So this would be banned: No. 32.
