Welcome back Cecil!
You've been gone SO long that I should probably update you on a few things.
Since you have been gone Yox is now doing FISH.
George is now the proud father of triplets! Yep, three bouncing baby girls. Hef would be proud!
I finally went ahead and had the sex change operation. SO, I am available if you'd like me to forward some recent pics.
Have I mentioned that Bill is now doing fish? Thought that was worth repeating.
McKenzie now owns everything, including this website, WASCO and even the deed to my house. BTW, ixna on the posts about "McKenzie Shipping Charges" (use the orange button - lol!)
Geez, unfortunately I can't even think of too many originals that are left to make more fun of - lol! They either all left or were BANNED!
Welcome back dude!
P.S. You may wish to stay out of the Current Events category at least until after the election - lol!
NOW THAT WAS FUNNY CHIT MARTY..WELCOME BACK CECIL

Marty,
You funny man!
No interest in the Current Event's category. No one changes anyone's mind so why waste the time getting the blood pressure up?

Cecil this site has sorely missed you and I, for one and delighted youre back. We may have political differences but I tell anyone, you're one helluva fish taxidermist. If any of you ever need replacement fish, NO ONE sells better or more perfect specimen. He packs and ships fish better than anyone I've ever seen. Cecil Baird is a good man, a great taxidermist, and I'm glad he's back. S lot of you beginners should be as well.

Welcome back Cecil....JL
How's the beautiful state of New Hampshire these days JL? Are you guys experiencing a mild winter too?
I need to get back up to your part of the country again for vacation. Just too many things going on for now.

I've used them all at one point. Tuffin was the last fin coating I used until Dave Campbell told me what he used. This lustre-flex works great. MUCH thicker consistency than Tuffin, builds up nice, drys fast, and it's extremely durable.
