You should have called the police. These kids need some help to protect them from their parents. I have called the police several times in similar situations.

I would do what the groom asks. The FIL will likely be there and he may not take kindly to it and may be the reason for it. If he groom is the type of guy that goes for strippers then take him to a strip club before or after.

The party should be for getting together with his friends before he gets married and not about how wasted everyone can get and having a stripper there to boot.

Oh and last weekend in my area there was bachelor party. They played a drinking game something about holding a guy up by his feet. He was so drunk and everyone claims he was passed out on the floor when they left. The thought is he died of achol poisoning and his wonderfull buddies dumped the body to stay out of trouble. Havent found him yet.

Jack by your admission it is only 1-2%, yes it is a small amount in a lake of this size. If would be different if it were 13″ fish. This is also a one time thing.

Everybody wants stocking but many times stocking is a waste of money. Let the DNR do a scientific study and base the management on science.

Let me ask you how would you do a scientific study?

A good source of information is at http://bbcboards.zeroforum.com/

Go to the Evinrude forum and post your question.

The fitch, opti, hpdi systems changed the way 2 strokes were oiled and vastly reduced oil and fuel consumption. This also greatly decreased emissions. The Etech is a further refinement.

Fourstrokes have high nox emissions and catalytic converters are used to redue nox. Fourstroke outboards do not have converters and suffer from high nox emissions. Etechs are the cleanest of the twostrokes and have lower emissions than the fourstrokes.

I think the cost of twostroke oil will cost about the same as a fourstroke oil change for a season. So those costs are equivalent. I have heard the 20 hour fourstroke service with oil change runs around $220. The etech does not require service for 3 years…gas and oil are it. The etch will also winterize itself with a process using the ignition switch.

I will be interested to see how they hold up before invest in one.

Did the kids comptuer work?

Thanks for the welcome. Have been lurking in the shadows for a while soaking up the info.

What brand of router did you get and was the setup successfull?

Sounds a little high. Being a kicker it might have a lot of hours. I would guess about $700 in good condition. Like new condition $900 would be fair. You might look up outboards on ebay and see what they are brining.

Two years ago I gave $900 for a 94 Johnson 20 hp. The guy bought it for a duck boat and used it one year. Then he bought a mud motor. The motor was stored inside and was like new. I was able to sell my well used 1984 10 hp for $450.

What you need is a wireless router. A router talks to multiple computers at the same time. An access point talks to one computer.

Most wireless routers allow up to 4 computers to be connectd via cables and many others through the wireless signal. Wireless routers can be had for as little as $30 on sale and will do the job. The more expensive ones offer the latest technology and may give a little stronger signal. The lower cost units process the data faster than your cble modem so paying more for higher throughput is not necessary.

The biggest problem with wireless is the signal may not penatrate all areas of the house.

I have set up a couple wireless units and may be able to answer your questions.
