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.

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. :S 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. :S

I am a professional slacker sucking off the tit of society and basically doing my part to offer nothing to the greater good of which I care little about except when it gets me chics or money for chics or access to money for chics and have no intention of attaining antyhing greater than what I am, which is little more than a boil on the ass of the human race.



So, to be more specific, you're a televangelist? :ph34r:

i'll try to never again think of the water down as "cold" during the winter.

Good luck with your Captain's License. I have a OUPV License but you're probably sitting for tonnage.

I've heard that the question,"so what do you do for a living?" is solely an American thing. If this is true, as an American, this is what I am ashamed of most.

Don't be ashamed. I've heard people ask that question in my own country many times...mostly when you meet someone new...it's a way to break the ice and make conversation...

I'm an Advertising Copywriter.

Basically I make people buy things they don't need. Could be worse though, i could be a lawyer :P

safe ones
