I think it has been a tough year for Springer's, too. I swore off talking politics, religion and race issues in my personal life a while back. Don't know why I engaged so deeply on it here, but here I am in the thick of it. Reality in my life is I think I am underpaid, and my boss is way over paid for the few things he actually does that don't do more damage than good. I think all politicians are sell outs and liars whether they are Democrat or Republican. I think Oregon politicians steal license fees and natural resources from fish and wildlife for their pet projects and and sell us all down the river without batting an eye. But the main thing is I am here on OFF because I love to fish, and like hearing and sharing fishing stories with all of you guys. Anyone who wants to disagree on those subjects can have at it.
