WTF is this.....
OK, I figured I don't have a life like most people that have blogs so here goes. This will be rarely updated and even more rarely include any useful content.
I will try to stay away from telling you how great my kids are (and they are great) and all that crap, because really everybody that is a parent puts it up on their blog and well it's pretty much the same stuff. For those with older kids, yep we know. For those with younger kids, guess what you will go through the same things.
Of Muskies and Metal? What the hell is that? Well it is my two favorite pass times (poker is third). This will document my fishing and guitar playing.
Musky fishing is number one. Try to get out every weekend from April through November. Mostly on Illinois famous Fox Chain of Lakes (also dubbed the toilet bowl). I fish out of a 2002 Crestiner 1750 Fish Hawk with a 90 honda. I use mainly Frank's Custom Rods and ABU Garcia 5500's, 6500's and Morrums (why the hell did they discontinue them?). Baits? You name it, just like most fisherman I have way to many, but my favorites are Phantoms, Jerko's/Squirko's, Voodoo Tails and Mepps Marabou.
My biggest Muskie caught was 46" caught out of the Fox Chain and I'm still searching for that ellusive 50 incher.
Guitar Playing - has become number two. I played in High School and College, but after graduating and getting married time was short and competitive cycling took up a lot of my time (yes I shaved my legs). Them my apartment burned down and with it went my three guitars. Kids came and I didn't pick up another guitar until about a year ago when my now 14 year old started playing the drums. Started taking lessons again and got a bad case of GAS (Guitar Acquisition Syndrome). So the gear is as follows: Ibanez GIO purchase by the wife about 3 years ago but never really played until recently, followed by a Gibson Faded Flying V that my wife bought me for Fathers Day/Birthday/Anniversary, then a 1984 Kramer Focus 3000 (what I played in High School) and finally a recently purchased Gibson Explorer....all played through a Peavey 5150 Combo.
Enough for now.

Since you're usually not doing anything useful in the latter portions of our poker games, maybe you should provide a little entertainment. Bring your amp next game.
BTW - I have officially made my last "Musky shaved his legs joke." Once you own it in public like this, it's not fun to tease you about.
I'm sure you will come up with something else.
hmmm, well - you made reference to your kid in the first post . . .
have you started a betting pool yet Khyle - how long until he has to brag about "just one little thing" a kid did ;)
(PS, what are you using as a moisturizer on thosse legs? seriously? are you going to post tips?)
It won't take long I'm sure. Something will come up, but remember I said I will try, not that I won't.
As for the leg shaving, that ended when the competitive cycling ended.
That's what you say in public at least.
