01-10-2009, 05:31 PM
I'd like to express my thanks to Mark and his wonderful wife for opening up their home to all of us. Not many people would allow total strangers to track snow and water all over the place. I don't know who brought all of that food but thanks to who ever it was. To all of you that I met, it was a pleasure meeting you and if we did'nt meet up, maybe next time and maybe the fish will co-operate a little more next time too. Thanks again Mark.

It sure was cool to put some faces to names. It was FANTASTIC of Sly and his wife to open up their home to us. I kept on thinkin' to myself, "I hope the kids don't break that, or that, or that.":lol: Really though, my kids loved it and it was GREAT how you went out of your way with em! The fishing was REAL slow, but both of the kids caught at least one (even if it was just on the 'Reel Fishing' game:dizzy:). My daughter said she saw more fish today than she EVER has. THESE are the "Good old Days"!!!!! Thanks!

First let me say it was a great pleasure to finally meet Mrs. Sylvester. The woman is a saint for dealing with all of us.:bowdown: For both of you to hold such a shindig was a very large undertaking and a fanstatic way for some us.....no.... alot of us to finally meet. From Lansing to that Canadien fella.....what's his name again....now I remember...."eh".
It's not very often now days that people would have put forth the effort and trust that you both did to make this happen. It is truly one of the events that will not be forgotten in my mind. Thank you both so very much.:)
It was definately a pleasure to finally put some faces together with the screen names. The next time we cross paths remember.......you don't know me.:16suspect
Thanks again for a great day.:coolgleam

I wish we would have stayed because the fishing was terrible:rant: We were going to come back but Jay wasnt feeling good so we just went home. Again, it was good talking to you all, we had a great time, and hopefully we can get together again soon:) By the way Harry, love the jigs;) (as usual quality work thanks for bringing them, although I felt like we were doing an illegal transaction on the side of the house:lol:)And Jim, let us know when you are going to sell the sauce we loved it too:corkysm55

Mr. & Mrs. Sly,
Thank you very much for opening up your home to so many snow covered people. My friend Norm and I had a great time and it was great for me to be able to put a face to a name. It was nice meeting many of you and those I missed I hope to meet another day.
We all realize how much time and effort goes into the planning and organizing to make a such a great party. All the food was great and I really loved your chili. You really have a beautiful view of the bay.
BTW, it was a good call that you followed through with today rather than switching to next Saturday. The weather turned out to be good, no wind, great day.
Thank you,

Well.No need to start another thread!!!!:rolleyes:
Really guys...It was much easier than you think! You put in as much effort as I did to pull this thing off!;) Bringing the food and all.:corkysm55
And I made money from the empties!!! Plus I got ALL the extra food. The way I see it, If I don't do this again next year, I would be a fool. :one_eye:
So, If I haven't moved yet, Next year will be the 2nd Annual!!!!!
Thanks Again to ALL Who came and brought food!!!
It was nice meeting all you nice folks.:xzicon_sm
Sly and Mrs. Sly:coolgleam
Funny you mentioned that. Jr. must have you sized up.........he mentioned you might do something like that again.:lol:
He also said meeting the people was totally different from the screen names.
He mentioned that he imagined ficious as being old-short-dumpy and bald. Don't know where he came up with that but remember .......aliens left him on the front porch.:lol:
Hmmmmmm.............also mentioned that he shoulda fished with ficious.:16suspect:rant:

WOW, what a great party. THANK YOU Mr and Mrs. SLY for graciously opening your beautiful home to all of us snow covered M-S' ers. It was a real pleasure to finally meet you...and Roxie too !

Also a pleasure to meet many of you M-S ers !!! THANKS Harry for bringing your commemorative "Glow Meat'n Greet Minnie" jigs. They are surely going to be collectables. And a big thank you to you AND to Capt' Kroger (and Sly of course) for lighting the fire under us to get out and chase those gills' . (Gee, you should see the twinkle in their eyes when they start talkin' gillies )
Salmonslammer, Greel Happy, and that Canadian dude drinking the Bud :dizzy: :lol: Pleasure to meet you too !
Finally, sorry to have missed a few of you....Lisa and Jay, etc.....AND that crazy character that rounds out the rest of the Catficious Crew ....what's his name ???? :whistle:

Zatarain's makes a real good fish fry mix. Not a heavy coating, great seasoning. Should check it out. Really nice with some malt vinegar.

Hey, my good buddy Jim, I have tried Zatarains it`s pretty good, try it on chicken wings too. I usually use drakes thin it out and add 7-UP or beer to make it light. I`m looking forward to trying out that hot sauce on a few different things, I used to work with a lady from Thailand that used to make a sweet curry hot sauce that my wife and I loved and yours reminded me of hers. Mike
Out of Bug Eyes again eh Mike? You need to start stocking up better ;) Of course I don't think it's the jig as much as it's you :)
