    Which arm did he grab Nell? because just at the moment he pulls...the thumb at the end of the other arm fits nicely into the opposing eye socket. Gives him a whole new attitude.
    some fella confronted me the other day and asked "What's your problem?" So I told him, "I don't have a problem I am a problem"

    See? Here's another lesson about reading the whole post. When I saw Trax say, "Why would a guy grab me by the arm and try to kiss me over the counter?" Well, I really did blush. Then I saw it was a quote from Nell. So, there you go.

    Pokemon - A Jamaican proctologist.
    Frog legs - Good.
    Crawdad - Good.
    Turtle - Good.
    Log Grubs - Have to be mighty hungry.
    Subdued - It's like, one of those guys, man, that, like lives on a submarine, for sure.

    Oh, yea. Owl Girl's question. Some things ain't right, okay? I mean look at the guy. He's a big blue hairy yellow eyed wolf. The pack don't swing that way. Not like my big blue eyes (bat, bat).

    Here is my native NH gold. There are abandoned mines in my area and some natural placers. I wrote this article showing how it is done.

    BTW, once you find real gold you will never mistake anything else for it. Only newbies would ever think iron pyrite was the real deal.

    I love rock hounding. Don’t know why…maybe it just gives me an excuse to play in the mud . There’s not much in my area to rock hound except fossils which I have a small collection of. Would like to try gold panning net time I’m in an area where gold is found.

    Nice article RR. That Keene sluice has my name written all over it.

    Owl_girl, there just aren't many places that don't have placer gold for panning. I'm not certain where you are but you should be able to Google Gold Prospecting Clubs for your area. You can often gain a lot of information from their web sites. Many state/federal parks allow panning by permit. Many ban it all together. Most outlaw any kind of digging, dredging or sluicing.

    I live in southeast MN. I’m pretty sure there’s no gold here.

    Yeah, panning and sluicing, my point was there's a lot more to prospecting and exploration than those things and I've seen people who are a lot more qualified than "newbies" get pretty excited over that mistake and others. I always wonder when people make statements that are in absolutes and generalizations.
