LOL - well, the reason I've been AWOL is that while doing taxes this year, I was seduced by fishing - and have been fishing and active on the website www.pierandsurf.com during this time. (I'm rorygoggin there too, btw) So I've since learned to fish for flounder and blue (skipping over croaker and spot . . . need to go back and learn them as flounder love to eat croaker and striper (my next target) love to eat spot) And the wife has reminded me that I've been ignoring the FTE stuff and so here I am and you fisherfolk will understand.
