ha this...

say hi to "playa vagabundo" -beach bum-

a sand boa his markings are off the hook.. his speed and strenth for a 6 month old boa is mind blowing. as a male his markins are a bit darker than the female. they tend to be thinner than your average python..

they max out about 8 feet long btw..

My favorite gift was a Film Cell from Rambo 4. (I love the rambo movies) It is frames in a way to let you see through the film cell and see what the scene is. It is awesome. But I love my new Quatum Reel, and my sexy shad set that I got as well. Plus two $50 gift certificates to Bass Pro ranks up there to. There are several things. I really didnt get anything I didnt like.

Pants. Pleated khakis in a size that fits.

Really. I needed pants and I got pants. Also got some new tennis shoes.

woody · 12-25-08, 04:26 PM

I sold my runabout, and got a glass bass boat.
The runabout looked nice on the water but was a pain to fish from.

Bob Smith · 12-25-08, 04:50 PM

My favorite gift has to be two things, the Bass Pro Shops 100 MPH Rain Suit (bibs and coat), and the new WII Rapala Fishing Frenzy game! Plus My Daughter in-law got me another electronic piano/organ to play around with in the office.

OK, that was three things! lol Hope you guys enjoyed your gifts as much as I did mine.

JB · 12-25-08, 08:26 PM

I found these 2 styro foam swords, 2 bucks a piece. IT WAS THE HIT OF THE NIGHT FOR HIM. HE WAS FIGHTING EVERYONE,HAHAHA!! but then my 2 sisters got a hold of them......broke one!! but pop glued it back together and all was well again. told the sisters they couldn't play with kids toys ever again! lol. but we had a great time. i hope ya'll had a great day as well. we did. looking forward to a better new year.

bcklash · 12-25-08, 11:34 PM

Bama, that stuffed animal wasn't a bait monkey that she colored to look like uncle John was it?

bassinbob · 12-26-08, 12:00 AM

A phone call from my daughter in Oregon. And the Cabela's gift card she sent me.
I have to wait till friday when I drive to Gettysburg to see my girlfriend and I'm sure I'll have to add to the list. She said we are going to Bass Pro Shop in Harrisburg saturday.

cassidyta · 12-26-08, 01:07 AM

My wife had a new engine and transmission put into my 72 Silverado. She also got me a Johnny Morris Elite combo. I haven't used one before, but it appears to be a decent reel.
She was most excited about getting me an I-phone. It is nice, but having my truck running again is much better.

WTL · 12-26-08, 01:45 AM

There you go man thats a sweet gift, what engine is it? And do you have to get it inspected for emissions?

woody · 12-26-08, 09:48 AM

This year my wife and me decided to buy one of those Nintendo Wii for our two girls. Those things are a blast to play, the whole family can really get into it! The only game that we have is the one that came with it, but I'm gonna have to check out their Fishing version sometime soon. I would highly reccomend checking out this game system, its well worth the price.

MississippiBoy · 12-26-08, 10:05 AM

My favorite gift (so far) is 2 gift cards to Bass Pro. I'm going to have to wait till after New Year's sometime to go spend them, but it should be worth the wait. Besides, that'll give me plenty of time to draw up a shopping list.

Joel · 12-26-08, 10:05 AM

Got gift cards to BPS and a few American Express gift cards too that I'm hoping I can use online at BPS. Going up state with my reservoir partner hand hopefully buying one last boat on Sunday.

Least favorite gift, the tax bill came.

woody · 12-26-08, 10:14 AM

My least favorite would have to be the Cardigan Sweater for my mother'nlaw

12-26-08, 10:29 AM
