Hi Randy,
I have been thinking quite a bit about it Randy, and to be honest, you have kicked over the hornets nest quite a few times lately, and then got frustrated with the ensuing banter. We are all fallible, and I think many follow your example. I like you a lot Randy, and I held my tongue when you did kick it thinking you have had a bad day or something. I think we can all stay apolitical as long as we all stay apolitical. That means none, and we will police it. @Woodpecker has done a great job, (he is the only mod i am sure is a mod), and when you say something that kicks over the nest, he is in a tough spot. Let's all live up to a standard, we are all adults. I have read things I absolutely did not agree with, but I let them go, as adults do.

Think of this a tough love. I like it here, great group of men. There is no place here for hypocrisy. Honesty yes. I hope we can continue to be friends, as this is not an admonition of you. I too will look to see ifni stay apolitical.

I'm not denying that I say something once in awhile to rile you guys up. When I do that....I'm usually already frustrated though.

We all do Randy, but set a good example and we will follow it. There's 2 things in life, things you can control, and things you can't. Control the things you can, keep an eye on the things you can't. They may become something you can control, so you need to be ready.

I'm going to go ahead and exit this thread as I planned Larry. I believe it would be better for me.

Take a break, but do pop in. You are among people that truly care about each other, you are one of those. I don't understand your frustration, it is your business, and not mine. I am sure though, that it is not as big of a deal as you think it is. Call me if you want to talk. Will pm you my number.

Randy, it will be sad to see you go much the same as @dall, @redline4, Jason, and many others over my short time here. I don't have much to offer but do enjoy the camaraderie in here. I too don't really enjoy the politics much, but everything is political today. Both sides of the isle want us to be at each others throats to mask what truely is going on. I would much rather see some or most of those that left come back if politics were removed from this thread than to see it die a slow death. We are on post 186,000 just in this current version not to mention the previous 2 versions of NSP! There could be a thread to troll or discuss politics if needed. Those that chose to do so can go there and bash each others heads against the wall and none of us will be the wiser. I am available to talk anytime, you have my number...

Do you need his? I wrote it on the bathroom stall at the Crossville Pilot! “For a good time or a leg model, call @Mastermind at 1-800-mo-pow’r.

Adam.....you are welcome to call me anything you want. We are golden my friend. I'm just thinking about the fellas that ain't here any longer.

How about we just TRY to avoid some subjects?
Can i talk to @3browns about the best dry fly hackle to purchase? As long as that is still on the table I'm good.

Evening gentlemen. Hope you all spend some time with that special lady (or man, pig, goat, etc). Seems the punches keep rolling in. We just got over the flu and now my son and I have some sort of GI bug. I’ll try to keep up tonight between bathroom trips, lol. So much for grilled ribeyes, twice baked potatoes and chocolate covered strawberries.

Howdy fellas. Saw a good deal on Marketplace this morning and jumped on it. It meant 6 hours of driving total, but this will help me a lot for my log landings and access to them.

They also make Caddies at the Grand River Assembly plant. Yeah lots of asshöle Caddy drivers in town🙄. Plenty of *b-wording about the newish Ford pick-em-ups too. I’m sorry to hear you’ve had so much trouble with your’s Tim. On paper they seem like a great truck.
Are you guy's still under martial law?
