My quests

[Alex in NC]

He he. Here goes.

I am setting up a fishing reports site (Don't laugh) that will be nationwide. I'm working with bait and tackle shops and charter captains from around the country for compilations. The recreational fisherman will be able to find info on any part of the country they wish, along with tips and advice. Also I want to set up a fishing vacations site which would have to be worldwide. Still taking a lot of notes on that one... Last but not least, the selling of rocks (I feel like Charlie Brown when I say that) and fossils. I figure I might as well develop sites on subjects I really enjoy. The internet gives people the opportunity to enjoy their passions while hopefully making a profit.

Needless to say my head is filled to the brim with SEO info. A big thanks to Sharon and Rob (I know you guys are actually Vulcans... were onto you) and to Lynn.

Oh Lynn, you get better by the minute.

I love fly-fishing. I have two float tubes and love fly fishing for bass.

I also love fly-fishing for Atlantic Salmon.

I did a web site for a friend of a friend.

He has a hunting and fishing camp. He is taking me on a Salmon trip
in a couple of weeks. All expense paid.

I built his web site in Feb. 2003 and he has had 3 groups from it already.

They pay $800 - 1200 US for three days.

I tie my own flies also. It is so rewarding when you catch something
on your own fly.

I taught my fishing buddy to Fly-fish and tie flies so I would have a
friend to fish with.

Way to go, James!!

And Lynny...fly-fishing?!? Cool!!!

All my fishing is done in a display case lately...

...although my son developing a liking for it.

Curious to see if he develops a liking for digging worms at 4 a.m.

[James Mann]

Dan, I don't dig worms.

I water the lawn and go out about midnight with a flashlight and just pick them up.

Dozens of them everywhere.

I'm on the weight loss trail right now. When I was in high school, I lettered in track and cross-country. I used to spend 4 hours a day, 4 days a week in the gym. I was a little overweight, but I was fit.

Then I started my web business, and things went south, literally! LOL This past spring, I found myself almost 200lbs. overweight and tired of being tired and out of breath and unhealthy.

2 months ago, I got food poisoning really bad. I had it coming out both ends! Within a day, there was nothing left in my intestines. I subsisted on jello and chicken noodle soup for the following 3 days. I dropped 10 lbs. that week and figured that since my stomach was empty and smaller, that it was a good way to kick-start my weight loss.

I've lost 26 lbs. in the past 2 months. I figure that I can probably drop the rest of it within another 12 months. It's all a matter of the moment-to-moment. The first 3 weeks were the hardest. I've been used to eating high-carb food. I had to start eating balanced smaller meals. Over time, I've noticed that I've started thinking different about food.

It's been a hard road so far, but it's getting easier as I go.
