Annoyed at thread drift

[Salty RI]

Had a little snow last night and some freezing rain, was 30 degrees when I got up this morning, that's what happens when you put the scraper away.

Woke up this morning to find a nice coating of snow in my truck. I really hate winter.

you should probably keep your windows closed at night.

Very funny.

So where are we? Going to 3,000 posts are we?

I'm going fishing, maybe shooting, maybe both and shoot fish in a barrel.

Went shooting yesterday. Today, need to tie a fly...just like the the one pictured...

I just can't think of what I want to say, get my drift?

I have been over on the Spam drift and now I have to go to see if anything has drifted into my food supply that I just have to eat.

I think I can, I think I can, I think I can....

Geddylee, you'd better jump in here if you want to try and save this thing you created.

I hear JimmyJ is doing some tricks on another thread.
Whew, that's 3 in a row. I need a rest.

Why do the "Alphabet song" and "Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star" follow the same tune?




Why did you just hum them both to make sure?

I think I can, I think I can, I think I can....

I know you can't, I know you can't, I know you can't...

Because it's really hard to sing the alphabet to "Hey Joe, where you goin with that gun in your hand".

Did I tell ya about my new Glo....
Oh, wait. Sorry. There's a nother place for that.

Just watched Josey Wales send a bunch of bad guys drifting freeing the grandmother and the girl . Sure was fancy revolver action even if it is movie action.

Meanwhile...Back at the ranch...

Would that be a March Brown? Lets see the pattern when tied.

I thought they were May Flies. Known as Midges around here. Some call them Sons of Midges. They live one day, reproduce and die. When they hatch don't be anywhere near light and Great Caesar's Ghost don't be on a boat with a light. Touch them and they pretty much liquefy. They are a mess.

Mayflies, yes. Midges, no. Different animals, so to speak.
Here's your midge. Trout love it when they "Drift" in the current.

This is great. Nobody around here knows this. Although there are sure to be non-believers, this year I will now be prepared to awe most of my guests with my knowledge of bugdom during the hatch. Thanks. No, seriously, thanks!

I continue to be amazed at the things I learn in thread drift.

Entomologically speaking, I'm not a fan. If it stings, I'm allergic to it. If it walks, crawls, hops, flies, spins, swims...it creeps me out. I keep the swatter & various sprays handy at all times.

I guess it would be safe to say you are bugged by them?

If a trout eats it, I'm in.

Yes, this has turned into a veritable thread of knowledge!

Perhaps we could rename the thread "Adrift in the Sea of Knowledge".

"A thread adrift" like that of a fly fisherman (or woman, sic).

There's something wrong with my gun, it keeps shooting low and left.

You are a south paw; right? Or should I say, correct.
