Congrats Burger - I always look forward to your take on a thread...no one will ever accuse you of jumping on the bandwagon - and for that I'm grateful.

thanks, TJ, and all. Does that make me a contrarian, or just contrary?
Next up with an anniversary, Ewest, on Monday.

Eric, another way to tell you're in trouble is when a backwoods sheriff looks at you and says "You're not from around here are you".
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.

My favorite was when a judge found out a guy had lied under oath about his income to get a court appointed attorney. The judge hooked his little pinky to the corner of his mouth, and in his best Dr. Evil impression said, "Bond, 1 million dollars! Deputies, take him away..."

I would like to congratulate Eric (Ewest) on his 5 yrs. of highly informative service on the forum. He jumped right in, and never looked back. I was glad to see a 'home boy' sign up just after me; we dont see many Mississippians on the forum. Maybe more lurkers since they are closing the Miss. wildlife forums.
Eric is a one of a kind; easy goin'. but no nonsense(but he can be a funny guy), When Ewest talks(or posts), people should listen. I know, I use too many parenthetical phrases.
Actually, the congrats belong to the forum members for having him on the team.

Well said burgermeister. Eric and his wife are IMHO the epitome of a southern gentleman and southern belle. Our forum is a much better place largely in part due to Ewest. And yes he does have quite a sense of humor, after all he did let me captain the conference pontoon boat which either illustrates a terrific sense of humor or a complete lack of judgment.

Thanks guys. Nothing better than helping friends with ponds.
Pond thought for the day. Ponds like mirrors reflect the quality and beauty of what is around them - take the time to see and share in the reflection.
