Wondering how long it would take to get a bunch of random thoughts or words of wisdom by at least 100 forum members. Pictures without words count too.

That is a far-reaching statement, Eric. It is the perfect visual essay covering everything from Creation and human purpose to a justification for war.

You need one of six things to make a lot of money.
1. A special or unique skill, that's also in demand 2. An incredible work ethic 3. A patent 4. A reputation for being the absolute best at something 5. A cornered market 6. A good, new idea
If you make a lot of money using any or all of these skills, the market will respond, and attempt to lower your ability to earn. So you have to adapt, like The Borg in Star Trek.
NATURE ABHORS A VACUUM. MONEY MAKING OPPORTUNITIES ARE THE ABSOLUTE DEFINITION OF THE WORD VACUUM.
Holding a redear sunfish is like running with scissors.

There aren't a whole lot of original ideas left in my world.
From my Father: If you don't know where you want to go, almost any road you take will take you there.
It's not about the fish. It's about the pond. Take care of the pond and the fish will be fine. PB subscriber since before it was in color.

The definition of happiness is always having time for "just one more cast".
"Forget pounds and ounces, I'm figuring displacement!"
If we accept that: MBG(+)FGSF(=)HBG(F1) And we surmise that: BG(>)HBG(F1) while GSF(<)HBG(F1) Would it hold true that: HBG(F1)(+)AM500(x)q.d.(=)1.5lbGRWT? PB answer: It depends.

Trying to help with 7.5 Acres in the Chain of Lakes Illinois - - The fish would stay out of trouble if it could just keep its fool mouth shut. Turns out there is a lot I should be learning from the fish.

It is easier to collect 100 random thoughts when the snow is on the ground than when the bass are coming off the beds.

"No good deed goes unpunished"
My wife used to argue that the actual quote is, "No good deed goes unnoticed", but more and more she is beginning to realize that I am right.

I do the very best I know how - the very best I can; and I mean to keep doing so until the end. If the end brings me out all right, what's said against me won't amount to anything. If the end brings me out wrong, ten angels swearing I was right would make no difference." - Abe Lincoln
