Thumbs up Attention, attention, attention!!!!!!!!

Flapster here, just wanted to wish all of you in the S-B.COM family a very Merry Christmas. You know, sometimes I get a little "edgy" and piss a few people off because I say what's on my mind. To those of you whom I have PO,d, please at this special time accept my sincere apologies, I should think more before I let it all spew forth.

To the ones here on the site to whom I owe the most, BM, Slip, JPI, Karl ( your a saint you know, really), Numbskull, JohnR, Hab ( you dog you!) "Bigfish" and last but not least Clammer ( Mike, your recent kindness and words of support for others after your personal loss is really inspiring and we are blessed, all of us, to call you a friend)please accept my humble thanks for all your patience and kindness.

To the rest of you from Maine to New Jersey and way out there on the left coast my glass will be raised to you on Christmas Eve. Be with the ones you love, that is the true spirit of Christmas, give of yourself and be the recipient of the love of family and friends in return for that is the greatest gift.

God bless you all and may he keep you in his hands!

Steve Shiraka

Why even try.........

Steve - Merry Christmas and a Happy Happy Healthy New Year to you and yours! While I'm at it, the same and ALL THE BEST to everyone here on S-B !! It's more than just a "fishing message board " . It's a great group of folks , complete with creepy uncles . I think Martha would agree"It's a good thing." Here's to good times in and out of the surf in 06! ~Joe

Merry Christmas to you too Steve
no apologies needed here, but I'll take a raincheck for the next time you get edgy and if you ever piss me off.(it takes alot to piss me off)

and Merry Christmas or Happy Hannukah to all the rest of you Striped-bass dot com'ers. Happy new year too.

Clammer we love you #%@^)?+)^^^!

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.

Thumbs up

Flap, ditto Clammer.
Most of you on the site will never know how much you have done for me over the last couple of years. You have always been there for me with either, at the risk of sounding un-macho, very large acts of love or small acts of kindness.
There were times when i didn't know where to turn, but your thoughts and prayers carried me through. It may sound trivial, but all i can say is Thank You.
I luv uze guys.
Merry Christmas,
Dave

Merry Christmas, Flap, and a fifty in '06. As for the rest of ya, thanks for everything, you're all very much appreciated. May 2006 be a real good year for us all!

Clammer, it was a little difficult understanding what you posted. I just got used to being able to read clammage and then you go and post in english. I am confused.
