If not for your post, I would not have noticed.
We all benefit one way or another from this board, and each other.
Nothing wrong with riding for free if you have to, but if you can afford to pitch in, why not.
This upgrade was for our benefit. |

Thanks for a great site and the hard work. I've completed my donation (do multiples of the 'base' amount get multiple trinkets? HAHAHA).
I think it's neat that you're calling the 2005 Collectors FRG a 'trinket.'
:D |

Any chance that there'll be some swag available for purchase at the Tour/Jam??
I'd really like to offer some support, but absolutely refuse to contribute to PayPal in any way, shape, or form . . . |

This is a great site. Even if I had nothing to do every day, there is no way I could do what Miles and Al accomplish here, in addition to still keeping their cool (most of the time). |

For those of us that won't be able to make the tour (Alaska is a bit far and that's prime fishing time!) are you going to offer it in the OFC store? Can you give us a "heads up" as to what the new stuff is? |

I pulled out the calculator and figured that with my donation, this board charges me about .001 cent for every hour of enjoyment I spend here.
Where can you get a better value for the money. Everyone should be sending in $5 or more to help Miles and Al continue to make this one of the best and most entertaining sites on the net. |

Location: Latitude 39.56819, Longitude -105.080066 | Actually my calculator erred out because it couldn't comprehend a number that low, so I just took a stab in the dark and plugged in a reasonable number.
Regardless, you are right! I am letting work get in the way of the time I spend on the OFC board.
Gonna have to work on that issue a little more. |
