    What has one got to do with the other?
    Or rather, what are you assuming my "photo" is saying?

    Isn't it time for what?

    ITS REALLY CASTING I WILL BE DOING, FISHING IS WHERE YOU ACTUALLY LAND A FEW

    CASTING IS SO MUCH MORE LIKE FUN

    ITS LIKE CHASING A MIDDLER FOR A GUTSHOT ON THE RIVER

    SOMETIMES YOU HIT A LUCKY STREAK AND ACTUALLY LAND ONE

    ITS CALLED RELAXING, BEING AT PEACE, AT ONE WITH YOUR OWN COMPANY

    Theres going to be 5 tables, if needed it can probably hold 60, theres room for expansion if poker takes off. The main cash game table looks fantastic.

    i forgot how nice the cigar smoking area was.

    i don't like drunks at the table but since my game has gone to hell i might as well join them.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,881 ✭✭✭bohsman
