Just thinking it's time for me to host another Swap. Those of you who have participated in one of my 15 previous ones seem to have enjoyed the fun and frivolity of my Off the Wall swaps. I've meistered March Madness I II, Colors I II, Retiree, Ham Radio, Chili Pepper, Eagle Scout, Blues I II, Jody's Courage, Renegade, Steelhead, Redneck, Murf Memorial. To make this one really different, I'm thinking of an OLD FART SWAP! You'll need to be at least 65 years old before the end of this year, ore thereabout. The fly you'd tie would be one of your own design, preferably one of your favorites, fly size up to you. At this point, I'm just testing the water. As those of you who have participated in my seaps before already know, there'll be around 25 participants. Could be more. Could be less, depending on the number of OLD FARTS who can still do a whip finish. :-) ;-) :-P :-D Time frame for flies to me would be around the first of February, with the usual toe tags, return postage packaging or pre-stamped return package. I look forward to hearing from you OF's who can still tie a fly. JIMMY D -- º ** JIMMY D.

Wash the skin in Borax and a bit of Joy dish soap. Rinse it well in
fresh water then use a hair dryer set on cool to dry it. The air will fluff the

Skunk pelt. If it works on skunk stink, it should work on the partridge.

As of 3:15 p.m. CDT, we have 20 signed up for the Old Fart Swap. I'm inclined to cut it off at 25 tyers, unless you Old Farts think we can tie more. If I don't hear otherwise, 25 it will be. When we reach 25, I will take the swap off list except for timely updates that might be of interest to others, i.e. names of Old Fart Flies, etc. I will also reiterate the Rules, etc. when I move the Swap Off List. I vote for a MAX of 25. (I'd be even happier with cutting it off with the current 20 who have already signed up) Curmudgeonly yours. -- Allan Fish Greenwood, IN [EMAIL PROTECTED] --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the VFB Mail group.
