This is directed primarily at the commercial & semi-commecial guys (commercial as in selling stuff anywhere) . Lighten up - all of you... Feels like late February in here after a couple months of cabin fever.

You're all (somewhat) full of crap (well almost all) - how about that? You all get on your high horses yet you all do a little bit to needle and stick each other. You all (almost) do. Now people are getting a little tweaked, are you suprised? "This guy copied my stuff".... "You ripped off this guy"... "You never turned a lathe until last week"... "Your plugs suck" - I'm actually laughing now, waiting for Willy to get knocked off the jungle jim. - Step back and look at this from 100 feet away. You're taking the fun out of it - for others AND YOURSELVES. Just relax a bit & lighten the eff up. Things will be a little more reasonable and enjoyable.

This I will also say, you all do some nice work, you are all very competitive, and there is room in the plug market for all of you. Beating your chests and beyotching at each other here won't do much positive for you other than maybe make you guys look a little silly. I'm also not going to referee this crap other than to say that once the humor washes off, it looks a little stupid.

I have a lot of respect for all of "you". I talk to you all and have seen and fished your works and have had your stuff pilfered from my plug bags. I've fished your gimmes when I've been too broke to buy eels (the best plug ). I have forgone my favorite eelage and dedicated nights to "your" stuff and liked doing it & caught FISH and LEARNED new things. I have respect AND grattitude to "you" guys. I sincerely wish that YOU GUYS would lighten up a bit...
