TOTAL LOSS

I'm going to preach to you folks one more time about making sure you have full coverage on your homes and work shops..2 o'clock this morning our 24"x48" woodworking shop went up in flames..complete loss..building,projects,tools, everything...no, not a clue as to why it went up....it's going to be a long day.

PAY THOSE PREMIUMS.

BOAT fish do count.

Sorry to hear that, Steve. I'm just speachless..

PICTURES PICTURES PICTURES

Take a 1/2 hour tonite and walk around your house or shop and take pictures of EVERYTHING. Upload to a hidden site somewhere on the net. WILL make a huge difference when you have to sit down and fill out the ins forms like Steve will have to do. Got to tell them everything you had... would you be able to sit and remember it all...probably not.

Steve that just plain %$%$%$%$ing sucks. My thoughts are with you.

Let me know what you might have immediate need for as far as tools, especially during the time before the insurance co. sends initial check. Can brng down Sat.

Sorry to here that Steve.

Over the Last Several Years HAB'S NEEDLEFISH Have Caught More "Confirmed" 30, 40, 50, and even 60 pound Striped Bass than any other Wooden Needlefish on the Market today. 2 Over 50lbs. and 1 Over 60lbs. in 2005 alone........... "HOOK UP WITH HAB'S" Your Best Bet For BIG BASS.....

that really sucks, I know you said that barn was full of stuff.
Good luck battling with your ins. co. they usually play hardball.

The United States Constitution does not exist to grant you rights; those rights are inherent within you. Rather it exists to frame a limited government so that those natural rights can be exercised freely.

1984 was a warning, not a guidebook!

It's time more people spoke up with the truth. Every time we let a leftist lie go uncorrected, the commies get stronger.

Hey Steve.... very sorry for your loss. Did you have all your fishing stuff and collections in there or is that your basement cave?

Just horrible either way....goodluck in the process of rebuilding and all.

Mike

Good health and family
