Ok... seeing as we're all over on the topic reference ideas and suggestions, I'm going to get Mac something I think he will actually use more than once or twice... a nice reel or rod/reel combo... if you want to slip me a $5 spot when you come to class... fine, if not I'm good with that too as this is a last minute deal. My brother is going to hit some places tomorrow to see what's good to go.
We do have a fancy Bass Pro in Tally. I'd be glad to run for you.
When I despair, I remember that all through history the ways of truth and love have always won. There have been tyrants, and murderers, and for a time they can seem invincible, but in the end they always fall. Think of it--always.
