My gosh salem!!! You're a Double Guru!! I'm soooo proud of you, that's a very honorable distinction!!! Wow, now there's something that doesn't happen every day!

And all this talk of food ... you guys have really made me hungry for some nice, deep fried catfish!

But I like them about a foot and a half long ... those giant things don't always taste real good.

Awe, TT. You know that I just like to talk a lot lol Thats all you need to get to double guru ;)

Yeah, but unlike a lot of them you always have something interesting to say.

I've seem some on other Threads with two and three word posts - but a lot of them, who are relative newbies, I've suspected have just tried to get their post count up so that they look like old timers.

You've educated, entertained and loved us!

Well, I'm sitting around here with a headless chicken, a pooping pig, two dogs and a wet wife who is just a little, wee bit angry at me for leaving her floating out there at the lake while I was saving the life of that great big catfish and then rushing home to tell all of you about it.

I wonder why I never have any excitement in my life? I'm just a bored, old man. *sob* No wonder I have to go out and mow to have some excitement in my life.

You are supposed to relax in retirement TT! It sounds like you have much more exciting things going on than most of us do lol

And I am winding up lol I have a BBQ and pool to go to tomorrow. I will not be able to get my dinner nap. Good thing the only thing I haveto do is cut up the watermelon to bring :)
A hard job but someone has to do it!

I agree TT. Some of ecf gurus exist only because they are contest ho's. I have stopped some of the contests which are not guided by the owner of the thread. It gets sticky, catty, and sick! My opinion goes beyond what I can say in this thread. I like to enter contests that are real and run by the owners. When one lets contest ho's run it-it degrades the vendor in my eyes. I was going to buy another tube...Salem you know where I bought mine from. I don't care if it was on sale for 50 cents...they lost my business with their thread ethics.

We have to keep you out of those threads, Sd! You know how mad they make me after the one and only that we tried to help a noob win and the vultures swooped in for the kill.

Really, just don't look at them anymore. Thats what I do.

If they use Random.org, that is fair. The ones that they just pick whoever are not worth the aggravation IMO. If I were a vendor, I would limit my contests to people that have not won an ECF contest in the last 30-60 days.

I know :) I have to stay away from them. When the first post is posted it sounds good. Too good! I hope I learned my lesson. Everything (items I won) I have given to others here on ecf. I see these folks on FB bragging about their wins and trying to make money off of the freebies. I have to take a step back. My ethics are totally different. I think I will go back to just stalking coupon codes. Actually I need nothing for the next year..but wait...just in case ya know I might need to stock up.

Boy .... not me.

From what I've heard about those contest threads I ain't going there in the first place and if I could just invent something like Gummy Bear did where I could make a whole lot of money ... like thirty or fifty dollars I'd buy me something nice too. But I can't seem to invent anything. I did have an idea once ... but I forgot what it was.

It is hard to buy nice stuff when you already have all of the nice stuff. lol Not impossible though, let me tell you.
