So now we're gonna discuss pleathora hunting? :confused: Pleathora's are a completely different critter than are nauga's and I've never seen a pleathora sofa. I think the hide is too weak to hold up well.:confused:

Plethoras are on the endangered list now, or is it the engendered list? Ingenuous? How ingenious!

That's the stuff I was talking about, Brad, we use it to fill the big holes from bullets like Ben's Max. HP. The hides aren't worth anything with holes in them, so we patch them right up and Bob's yer uncle. A good service repair can be made with a scrap of fabric and flex seal or silicone.

Flex tape? Bet you could cut a bullet in half and tape it together and go hunting!

TV was a place where lying wasn't permitted before the 'net was created........

Gorilla glue is what you use to tape broken bullets back together, don't you know that's the strongest stuff on earth? Wifey is spoiled, she stuck an onion in the slap-chop and BAM like that five-course supper.

We save those for soaking up Texas floods. Two squirts of kaboom and a drop of jet dry and every dish in the house got sparkling clean, though.

oohhh, see what I did there? almost brought it full circle!

I was talking to the smith about putting a palm swell on one of the shotguns and he recommended that stretch tape you see them fix leaks with on the TV.
I was gonna wrap some friction tape around a thin piece of closed cell foam because all I want is a more firm grip with my right hand.
I guess that stretch tape stuff is about as grabby as a tennis racket handle.
I guess the bonus is I would have enough left over to tape parts back on my truck this winter.

For environmental reasons, nauga's have been relocated and properly are now called 'Stough'. Chinese have been working with a breeding program to make the flesh more palatable.

Or, if you do buy a used car in the next three years, demand to have it inspected by your trustworthy local mechanic before purchasing. If the seller won't agree to a pre-purchase inspection, move on. This is advisable for ANYONE purchasing a used vehicle from a lot or individual, and most reputable independent shops will gladly offer this service for a nominal fee. Armed with a technician's report, you can often negotiate a better price based on repairs needed, and avoid big problems down the road. None of us have x-ray vision or crystal balls, but a trained set of eyes familiar with pattern failures on a variety of cars and trucks on the road today can spot potential issues before you buy. Paying an hour or two of a shop's labor rate for this service is money well spent, IMO, and most people don't realize this is an option.

Did you know that 'sea-bats' is a term to describe laundry & other stuff left in the rigging to dry that might attack you in a sudden breeze? 'Ship - shape' is removing the sea bats. 'Rocking' the deck was done to remove splinters as most didn't have/wear shoes. Swabbing was to remove scales & other accumulated fish trash from the deck, again, no shoes. I did try to get a merit badge in snipe hunting, but BSA isn't BS-SA. Trivia is FUN.

I tried snipe hunting, but found watching the submarine races to be much more entertaining.
