Let's go Mongoing - Mongo bat may be revived!
Yes, we are checking into the tooling and the capability to produce Mongo bats. We may just bring it back to satisfy the popular demand.
The Mongo is war against the cyber games and it is much less ugly. less bloody and less violent. The worst thing that can happen when Mongoing is that you trip while running. Check ou this video of Mongoing to observe the action.

Update to Orvis Warehouse Sale Blog
When I went to the Orvis sale at the Metrolina Fair Grounds in Good ol' Charlotte. I scurried to the waders and picked up two pairs of Tailwaters XT waders for $39 each.
Now the rest of the story! We went trout fishing in the Great Smoky Mountains National Park Saturday 3/21/09. We tested those waders and found them to be very well made and tough enough to stand up to the thick underbrush that surrounds the small streams in the Park. We like the small streams as that is where the wild trout are located.
Last year, I had the breathable waders, and they were lite weight and super cool. However, when I lent them to my grandson, they came back in shreds. the tears from the underbrush were so great that repairing them would be impossible. Did not have that experience with the new waders.
The conclusion: Neoprene waders were fine when we went to Alaska, lite breathable waders were fine for rivers, but if you want durability, the Orvis Tailwaters XT waders are the ones to purchase.

Quiting Retirement is Easy
Retirement is easy, I can quit whenever I choose. Not so! I have retired several times, but now I find myself an author. I have published several articles on Associated Content. Also, I am a full professor at the Trout University where I have written several on line classes for teaching the art of trout fishing. So, now I am working on the computer about six hours per day and I have applied for a part time job outside the home as well.
