Joke for this Week - On the border of Georgia and Alabama there's a small forest. Half of the forest belongs to a Georgia farmer, while the other half belongs to a Alabama man.  One day, while out for a walk in the woods, the Georgia man comes across a dog caught in a trap. He rushes back to his house and calls his Alabama neighbor.

"There's one of your dogs caught in a trap on my side of the forest."  "How do you know it's one of *our* dogs?" the Alabama farmer asked.  "Well," the Georgia man replied, "he's already chewed off three of his legs and he's still trapped."

Forum Discussion -    Kelly's Dad writes: " Actually I don't think you need to get terribly worried.  (about owning an OMC)  There is a large aftermarket today where not only independent repair shops and marine retail stores (non-marina accessory stores) get parts from many outboard dealers buy aftermarket parts for use in their customer's engines, this because some brands are cheaper, with quality to match. The unfortunate customer brings his (for example) MerCruiser to a MerCruiser dealer thinking he is getting OEM parts!!!!" http://forums.about.com/ab-fishing/messages?lgnF=y&msg=788.11

Tip of the Week - On bright, warm sunny days fish rocky banks and pockets on the north side of the lake.  They get more sun this time of year and warm more quickly, bring out the fish!

Thought for the Week - I'm not into working out. My philosophy is no pain, no pain.
