With three kids and my job, I can only dream of adventuring they way Scott does! Can't wait for some pictures of sharks and Albicore Scott! S. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DEERSLAM Report post Posted August 11, 2006 Must be way over paid Just kidding ScottyBoy Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kilimanjaro Report post Posted August 11, 2006 heck, they don't pay us enough!! I know there are alot of guys on this site that make a ton more than I do! But with my income and my wife's, we make it without too much difficulty. This fishing trip only cost me the cost of a quick Southwest flight ticket ( 150$). My buddy owns the boat. He said he's paying for the diesel to repay me for a quail hunting trip I took him on. All I have to do was get my butt over there..and buy the beer!! Basically a free trip. Not too expensive for anybody! Certainly less than if I was to go bear hunting this weekend.. I just live by this motto... if I die tomorrow, at least I'll die knowing that I didn't go through life saying I wish I could do this or that, or I'll do that someday.. Basically the woulda, shoulda, coulda complex that alot of people have. When I say I'm gonna do something, I DO IT! I never put things off if I can help it.. Remember that, you only live this life once. Might as well make it a good one.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

peckl1 Report post Posted August 11, 2006 George Strait??? I learned that line when I was in the car business. You know when an old fart would give me the line that this was going to be his last car so couldn't I give him just a little better deal? Lee Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dodger2 Report post Posted August 14, 2006 Shortpants, How about a "scrap booking" club, she's really into that and always complains she doesn't have enought time... I'm only joking, I'm pretty lucky...whenever I want to go, I can go...as long as stay within HER budget.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
scout4u Report post Posted August 14, 2006 lol i get a hunting allowance and if i go over... well lets just say this would be my last post. My wife doesnt care that i hunt its the cost of my "needed" items to do so but i always drop the "i could collect stamps" line and she folds like a blind man playing blackjack. Good luck to everyone and may your wifes & husbands be forgiving. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
