To: vfb-mail@googlegroups.com Date: Tuesday, August 18, 2009, 2:38 PM I wrote this just before Christmas 2003. The lack of the fun type posts we used to share is the very reason you don't see me post to the list. Today, I have nothing else to do and in trying to ease the pains of Pneumonia, came across this old post from me to the list. You can beat on me or whatever, but if I feel this way, I'm sure there are other old timers who now lurk instead of post. JIMMY D Wow, the last two days on the VFB have been something to behold. I've learned soooo much! I learned that Hans can cast 40 feet just using a broomstick. I learned that Henk can cast 40 feet with just his hand. I learned Tony's flight instructor was SNOOPY. I learned that Mark Romero once lived in a Cop Car. I learned that Patrick's truck blew up. I learned that Mike's computer crashed. I learned that Bart found a great buy in an Orvis bamboo. I learned that Allan doesn't like to tie Mayflies. I learned that I can't tie Tandem flies. I learned that Chris Chapman set a new record, tying three flies in two hours. I learned a million ways to keep thread from unraveling from a spool. I learned that Di Soma shops the flower section of Michaels. I learned that Del is an expert tyer of furled leaders. I learned that Paul Marriner ain't done yet. I witnessed the NEW Furled Leaders thread dying in just three days. I withessed the new Spine vs Spline thread only lasting a little over a day. Boy, I learned a whole lot! I also learned that We're Family ! But the most important thing I learned is that our DUTCH Lowlander friends, Hans and Henk have a sense of HUMOR after all! :-P Have A Great Day!
