If we can just get George to make the trip we'll be well on the way to a perfect conference.
Besides that, if George can't come I may be the oldest conferee there. Wait, is there a prize for that?
Bing Bing, my title of “adult supervisor” is assigned to you on a temporary basis, to keep an eye on the “band of rowdies” that will go unnamed at this point in time. Daily reports will be required. If we can just get George to make the trip we'll be well on the way to a perfect conference. I agree a piece of the conference is missing without George in attendance. Besides that, if George can't come I may be the oldest conferee there. Wait, is there a prize for that? Jeff, you are in charge of teaching “double haul” – video required.

Jeff, you are in charge of teaching “double haul” – video required. Oh rest assured George, if I'm teaching "double haul" someone is sure to video tape it. Can't I have an easier assignment? How about double shots can I teach double shots??? (I'll bet Sunil has that breakout session locked up already though).

Less than 30 days to the conference. I can't wait, I can't wait, I can't wait. Are we there yet? Yesterday JWHAP was looking at photos of the lodge and Table Rock Lake. The lodge looks so beautiful! The lake is HUGE, over 43,000 acres and 800 miles of shoreline. According to the website: Dominant species: LMB, SMB, Spotted Bass, White Crappie, BG, Long Ear Sunfish, Channel Cats, Flat Head Cats. Secondary species: White Bass, Bullhead, Carp, Black Crappie. Limited species: Walleye, Paddlefish, Warmouth, Striped Bass. WHAT NO GSF?!?!

They didn't have GSF at the Sheraton Arlington, either, until we were there.

I'm sure they're there if a river was damned to produce the reservoir. I fish a reservoir out east where bluegills are not listed (people consider them trash fish there), and I can assure you they are in the reservoir. In fact that is my main draw to the reservoir.
If pigs could fly bacon would be harder to come by and there would be a lot of damaged trees.

Jeff, Table Rock Lake is fed by cold water inflows which are loaded with GSF state wide. We try hard to ignore that factoid though.

I must express my deepest sympathies to the Govenor Jay Nixon, Mayor Raeanne Presley, the six Aldermen (Alderpersons?, what the heck is an Alderman anyway?), law enforcement, the good people in state of Missouri and anyone and everyone in general proximity of Branson, Missouri (specifically the cleaning and maintence crew of the Big Cedar lodge).
Why?
Because JHAP and JWHAP are going to the conference bayyyybeeee! I can't wait. The calendar is marked in red felt pen. We're going to Branson.
Suhweet - we can reinact the Todd Overton citizen's arrest scene after all! I will play the part of backround tumbleweed.

Jeff
Take heart, we'll be sure you're sufficiently pickled so the only pain from the pistol whipping then sleeper hold will be when you wake in the AM.
Maybe N8ly could bring his camcorder and we could shoot the scene underwater?

Well I guess that is slightly better than having my stomach contents lavaged by Justin VanDeHay.

I'm going to personally handle the lavaging of your stomach contents by the "pull your trigger" method.

Call for Silent Auction items - Proceeds go to the Jesse West Fisheries Research Endowment at SDSU
Attention all professional at the forum: I suspect "famous" shirts from any of our professional fish squeezers/haulers, aerators, and dirt folk here would be sought after items at the PBConIII Silent Auction. Tax deductable, too. Hint, hint.

I know when I'm wearing my yellow SDSU golf shirt, people look at me like I'm important.

You would have to ask Condello.
