Obviously the culmination of Lusk's dream.

A forum with only Condello, n8ly and Brettski participating.

...or nightmare
Remember when he once noted how lucky he was that he sometimes giggled in bed thinking about his life? Enter Stephen King.

This spring we are going to build a river! I have a pump to pull water from 44' deep and am going to have the water fall down a waterfall into a stream that has pools for fish. Then the water will flow back into the lake. This set up actually isnt going to be as much work as it sounds, because I have the perfect place for it.
Kind of got the idea from that old fish guy from wisconsin who wrote that book about his life and ponds and how he spawned walleyes in a homemade river. I cant think of his name, maybe elmer?

Please, if you do something like this get some good photo documentation, because I'm in the wishing phase for something a lot like this.

Bruce and I will be unable to help, tho. We will be occupied with keeping this forum open by continuing to post useless blather until some unsuspecting chump...err forum member...falls into our trap and becomes our cyber-friend.

Dudes....we may be near the next finish line. Good 'ol JP told me we might lose a few new posts for a couple of days but within 48 hours the site might be fixed. Holy moly....what a messy few weeks...or was it months? Or, years?
Thanks for hangin' in there with a good sense of humor. We might actually be able to get serious about the unserious business of pond meistering before long.
We do have some major announcements to make, once this thing is fixed. As Paul Harvey says, "Stand by for news!"

Yeah it looks like that picture I posted of myself and my supermodel wife landing a 18 lb bass from my pond got deleted. Its too bad because I had my Nobel prize trophy along with me in the boat and it was in the background of the picture. I knew I should have saved that pic to a disk.

Seems as thought they used a slightly older backup image of the database when they moved it to the new server.

I'm catching up on the Matt Clark-Bruce Condello forum backlog.

I also noticed that my avatar has been changed back to what it was two days ago. Interesting.

One has to utilize an avatar-du-jour in order to notice that.

Never, I refuse to be serious, it's not in my nature, you can't make me.

I knew it, you've been cloned. I've been saying that for a while now but no one will listen. One minute you're in California, the next in Mexico, now you're consulting on a pond then you're writing a magazine. Do you think we are so stupid as to believe there is only one of you. So now you're going to admit it. They cloned a sheep why not a Lusk. I knew I was right all along.

Finally now all of the forums members will find out that I'm not mental, they will bow before my infinite power and wisdom.

Monuments will be built to honor me.

Songs will be sung in praise of my foresight.

Or not, it's hard to tell, these forum members are kinda fickle.

I've made 55 posts in the last 30 hours. Does this mean I've been suffering from withdrawal?
