~~~ imagine fishing there with THEIR gear ~~~

i wouldn't change a thing! for me, the challenge would be to accomplish what they accomplished, with their "lesser" technology.

seems to me a fairer fight would be had, and one would have to be on top of one's Striperin' game, closer to the true meaning of "angling", to Land sum LAHHHHHGE!!

thanks Scotty,,,,,,,,,,,B&W is my favorite genre in EVERY expression of Art. Hitchcock, Escher, the old Classic Horror Films, and Documentaries!! sorry for the coming rant; but clips like that remind me very clearly that

THAT generation of men would KICK our "lilly-livered" arses, today~~ without breaking a sweat. back then, they really DID eat lightning and crap thunder, and WALKED to school, and fought for World Peace, and would NEVER have stood for nor pulled the CRAP that we've turned this land, country, and gov't of ours into!!


often times; less is more, and booksmart is streetdumberer,,,,,

for me, it is a screaming indictment of how far we are removed from
where we should be at the very core of our Nation and as a God-fearing Peoples, and makes me kinda pissed that we are WHERE we are because of many reasons; but the glaringest of them all, imho, is,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,MONEY and the roots attached to its EVIL!!!

"The first condition of happiness is that the connection
between man and nature shall not be broken."~~ Leo Tolstoy

Tight Lines, and
Happy Hunting to ALL!
