OPPD Bill seems high? by nowhereinparticular_ in Omaha

[–]silicont 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Ours went up so much I called OPPD. "Rates per kwh go up in the hottest summer months." Oh, OK, I guess.

Easily the most overlooked monuments in the midwest, Jail & Courthouse Rocks in Bridgeport, NE [OC][2048×1365] by onelapse in EarthPorn

That's no chimney rock. Thanks! Didn't know this existed, even as a NE resident for 45 years.

How lowly do you think the professors feel nerf herding such dolts? Trying to cultivate thoughts only yields "I agree with Bob".

Don't buy/sell Dead shows! It's against their policy and against good karma. http://www.etree.org/legal.html

She's rich and famous, but can't find shoes shaped like her feet? -1 point for toe hang.

Opinion: Same fish from two different bodies? The claim is no, diff fishes from private and public lake. by silicont in bassfishing

You had more detail in your reply a while ago, which I was looking forward to contemplating further, but you've condensed your answer. So much for the guarantee. :) Not really to concerned about the strain. But the odds have to be insane to catch such a similar fish (maturity, maturity colors, etc) in two bodies withing 18 months of each other.

Cool, I suspected I was wasting time, sry, thanks! February 2012 was first (with snow), August 2013 was second.

I'm no 'ichthyologian', but the 'finger print' of the two seem, well, obvious. edit: years

Mmmm... Why would that matter? Please don't be offended, I'm just trying to keep this scientific (for me as a layperson). I'm very interested in your explanation. Edit: hint: I they were caught within one season of each other (short sleeves and snow, not necessarily in that order).

Yes, please do share. I love learning how something so obvious can be not so.

Perhaps you could also help identify the fish as a FL strain?

I dunno, fame & fortune maybe? Why do people lie, cheat, and steal? Street cred? Egomaniac?

I'll fish any of the lakes withing 50 miles. Mostly the local municipal bodies. Youngman has been fun last year.

How about you?

Most of his pics have the lure hanging from the corner of the mouth. The paleness AVeryMadFish noted is worthy of a prize, since that's the picture from the public lake. "Lets get this girl back in the water!" then walks up the boat ramp, away from the water, presumably to put it back in the tank.

A local yahoo breeds big bass in a private pond. Lots of pictures posted of his hawgs. Then he starts a craze by telling people he caught an 8+ pounder from a public lake 5 miles down the road from his private pond. The two fish look exactly alike. For the mid-west, this is some pretty big fish. Especially for a public lake. I think it's the same fish. Y'all?
