Title: Finally become a productive member of society again
Post by: Smoking Duck on June 11, 2010, 11:19:57 AM
Well, the Good Lord finally shone down upon me and I start a job on Monday selling medical equipment!  As I am now a productive member of society again, as well as paying taxes, I will now be able to afford the finer things in life like brisket and pulled pork again.  Look for me to become a productive member of this society again as well.  Many thanks to the many members who have supported me through this long ordeal.  I finally feel like I can raise my head again.  Many thanks, my friends!

Thanks all.....been a long, dark road at times but finally seem to have things going my way in some small bit.  For those who don't know, I'm now living in Holland, MI (right on Lake Michigan) so if you're up this way, give me a ring and we can try and go out to catch some salmon to smoke :-)

Thanks all......I wasn't feeling like I was a very productive member of this society or society in general for a while.  Once the checks start rolling in (I start Monday) Momma has given me the go-ahead to resume the thing I love just slightly less than her and the kids :-)

Haven't been salmon fishing lately....word is they're catchin them a couple miles out in anywhere from 120-150' feet of water.

I did get into some good walleye fishing a while back off the pier in Holland.....catching them anywhere from 26"-39".  They're gone now though but should start turning back up around mid to late August.

Steeler's doing great.....had her first quadruple retrieve last hunting season.

How you doing?  Got that Ark built yet?  ;D

Well, I start work tomorrow and have some butts in the smoker as I type this.....seems like all is right in the world again (at least for me)  ;)

Welcome back Marc,
I was just wondering the other day how you were as I haven't heard from you for a while and apparently, you caught the brain wave.   :D

Now if you can send the brain wave back, I will be able to think again, don't have too many of them you know.    8)  :o

Great to have you back.

Thanks all again.  My first day of work is today and I'm really excited to be back working.  I'm more excited because it allows me to get back to doing what I love doing.  It's been such a long time since I've made bacon I just may have to pick up a fresh side after work!
