Hey anyone interested in starting a bowling club or golf club?? How about Western Bowling Club?? Geez....these prices are going to hurt deep in the pocket this year.

I remember in 2004 when they went up to $2.35 a gallon, I thought that was ridiculous at the Jamboree running around on Banks. I never got to experience $1.50/ gallon much when I had my Nitro. Wish it was that way now......

I have just been thinking I know, I know ???, maybe I should write up a grant proposal to study the effects of rising gas prices on the average Bass fisherman.  You know ask for a couple of hundred thousand. 

I would hand out money to you guys and then ask that you keep detailed records of how much time you are able to spend fishing and traveling etc, write it all up with the appropriate graphs and figures.  Then have it printed up and bound for some government agency to put in a file cabinet somewhere never to be read by anyone.

When I see what some of the grant money is going to it makes me wonder.  I would bet Exxon would kick in for this don't you think.

What do you say Sarge, want to help me write this one up?  Could be an automatic Doctorate for both of us!   Grin
