polegrl Posted February 12, 2008 Posted February 12, 2008 As one of the women on the board I thought I would just put a friendly reminder about Valentines. Has anyone thought about gifts? Something different than the perfunctory chocolates & flowers? I just started tying so some supplies would be nice. Seeing the board consists of mostly guys - what are you hoping to get? Oh wait...I might know the answer to that. Quote
toolman Posted February 12, 2008 Posted February 12, 2008 Well I hope to get a fishing date for Valentines....So... are you busy that day? I'll bring lots of tying materials for you too...nothing but the best! Quote

WesG Posted February 13, 2008 Posted February 13, 2008 Pfff Valentines day!!!!!!! What a load of BS. Nothing but a made up day by corporate America to get people spending money again after Christmas. If this day actually meant a damn thing it would be a holiday! Quote
Taco Posted February 13, 2008 Posted February 13, 2008 All those in favour changing SanJuanWorm's handle to Blood Red Splot say Aye. Quote
Pythagoras Posted February 13, 2008 Posted February 13, 2008 I'll second that LF! Hey LoneFisher...are they song lyrics or is it a poem in your signature line? Either way...where's it from? Quote
lonefisher Posted February 13, 2008 Posted February 13, 2008 I would accept a YFZ450 just in case any of you ladies on here are stuck for something to get me. Pythagorus Its Johnny Cash The Last Gunfighter Ballad lyrics The old gunfighter stood on the porch and stared into sun And relived all the old days back when he was livin' by the gun When deadly games of pride were played and livin' was mistakes not made And he thought of the smell of the black powder smoke And the stand in the street at the turn of a joke The thought of the smell of the black powder smoke And the stand in the street at the turn of a joke And it's always keep your back to the sun And he can almost feel the weight of that gun And it's faster than snakes or a blink of the eye And it's a time for all slow men to die His eyes get squinty and he's straight as log and he empties his gun at the dirty dog And he's hit by the smell of the black powder smoke And the stand in the street at the turn of a joke Hit by the smell of the black powder smoke And the stand in the street at the turn of a joke Now the burn of a bullet is only a scar And he's back in his chair in front of a bar And the streets're empty and the blood's all dried The dead 're dust and and the whiskey's inside So buy him a drink and lend him an ear He's nobody's fool and he's the only one here Who remembers the smell of the black powder smoke And the stand in the street at the turn of a joke Remember the smell of the black powder smoke And the stand in the street at the turn of a joke Said I stood in that street before it was paved I learned the shoot or be shot before I could shave And I did it all for the money and the fame Noble was nothing but feelin' no shame And nothing was sacred but stayin' alive And all that I learned from a Colt 45 Was to cuss the smell of the black powder smoke And the stand in the street at the turn of a joke Cuss the smell of the black powder smoke And the stand in the street at the turn of a joke Now he's just an old man that nobody believes Says he's a gunfighter the last of this breed And there's ghosts in the street seekin' revenge Callin' him out to the lunatic fringe He's out in the traffic down checking the sun And he's killed by a car as he goes for his gun So much for the smell of the black powder smoke And the stand in the street at the turn of a joke So much for the smell of the black powder smoke And the stand in the street at the turn of a joke Quote

flyangler Posted February 13, 2008 Posted February 13, 2008 My sweetie is in Switzerland until the weekend. It's already tomorrow there, so I sent him an e-card. With any luck, he's scouting out some good dark chocolate to bring home. I don't think the Swiss are famous for their tying materials. Quote
LynnF Posted February 13, 2008 Posted February 13, 2008 God...what a bunch of romantic schmucks you guys are. My man knows how to treat me. No chocolates or cards for me....I'm going to paradise on V Day. Y'all could take a lesson Quote

LynnF Posted February 13, 2008 Posted February 13, 2008 Lynn what about us though? Well Dave - if by "us" you mean the collective "us" then...well....enjoy the snow. If by "us" you mean you and me...then I prefer my chocolates in a Bernard Callebaut box Quote
bigbowtrout Posted February 14, 2008 Posted February 14, 2008 Swin' a two fly rig are ya King? Any bites Toolman? or are ya only going sting a few suckers? Quote
toolman Posted February 14, 2008 Posted February 14, 2008 Looks like I only got that one nibble, but, as they say...the fly in the water catches all the fish... Quote
polegrl Posted February 14, 2008 Author Posted February 14, 2008 Looks like I only got that one nibble, but, as they say...the fly in the water catches all the fish... Maybe you need to describe the fly you have in the water some more. I don't bite...but then again, maybe I do. Quote
