freeflir29 0 #152 January 13, 2004 QuoteI've Been a commercial fisherman in the Bering sea of Alaska for 9 yrs.. One of the guys I used to hang out with fished there for several years. Until a crab pot fell on him and injured his back so bad he can't hardly work anymore. I'd have to look up the name but my neighbor in Montana owns a boat there. You guys are NUTS! That shit is dangerous. If you ever read books make sure to pick up "Into the Wild" by John Krakauer. I think any Alaskan would appreciate it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

freeflir29 0 #156 January 13, 2004 Reminded me of me. I have done a couple forays into the Montana wilderness. One damn near killed me. Even with an OVERLOAD of supplies. It's a good thing I was young and tough. Oh.....I forgot to add. Other than my full time job as a US govt employee I moonlight as a skydiver and COMPLETE DUMBASS when it comes to women.
