Weekend Plans?? TFCTFN!!!

Yes - its Too Freickin' Cold To Fish Night this Saturday at the VFW Hall, Middle St, Fairhaven, Ma.

Come celebrate the end of a glorious winter (not) of snow, ice, and more snow while performing ritualistic Irish Voodoo Sun Dances, Rappin'Belly Flops, Gag awards, Real awards, and the best fun in New England since the demise of the Benny Hill show.

Cost $10 (this includes the significant other if you bring one - wife/GF/hubby - fishing partner does not count as significant other). Great food, Raffle, hanging out with Fellow S-Bers.

http://www.striped-bass.com/Stripert...march-5th.html

*** RAFFLE NOTE: I will not YET raffle off the Plug set as discussed at PlugFest. I've have been so busy with REAL job I have not kicked it off but will do over next few weeks, concluding at MSBA show ***

So what's up for the weekend?

I hope you and Angie can make it, Larry!

Tonight, I'm having boys night with my son while the wife goes out with the girls. Probably go out for dinner, then home to play some Wii, then I'll watch the Celts and work on my basement after he goes to bed.

TFTCN tomorrow night, then recover Sunday during the day and bowling league at night.

Same boat here, Jess.....work has been vey spotty for us too.

Going to bid a couple small jobs tommorrow and then hopefully closing a major kitchen renovation job in the afternoon. Could really use the security of a six to eight week job right now. Thirty four cabinets, so my shop might have a major upgrade as well..... Glad to see someone has 90K to throw in a kitchen....

Ohhhhn #^&#^&#^&#^&...There goes the house now...Awesome...Charlie...Welcome to the Dark Side!!!


Saturday is "MAN DAY"

I'm up at 8 am and in the car at 9am. Meet a friend in Lakeville and off to Cigar Masters in Worcester to partipate in the NERF (the cigar collectors version of TFCTFDay) which is also a fundraiser for Wednesday's Child. Jack Williams is our Master Of Ceremonies every year.

For those who did not know, I am an avid cigar collector (more cigars than plugs...well close in number but the cigars are worth more).

Back to meet Wendy in Lakeville by 6:30 and off to the most badass group of fishing people amyone ever decided to waste a few thousand hours of their life with at the annual MUST ATTEND EVENT OF THE YEAR...TFCTFN!!!!

Sunday is sleep and Nascar all day.

Ok, Pat I don't get it. How the heck do you collect cigars? I have a humidor. It has cigars in it. Therfore, am I a cigar collector? Do you smoke your collection?

No boat, back in the suds.

Collecting cigars is buying hard to get/rare cigars and saving and aging them for special occasions. The guys that can afford it buy boxes at a time and save them in very large humidors or coolidors (those large wine refrigerators converted to keep 70% humidity). I do eventually smoke stuff in my collection, as I don't believe the cigars will get any better after x number of years aging.

Patrick, you'll have to post some pics of your collection .
