Imagine you've planned a 4 day fishing trip to the best lake in the world where every catch is an 8+ lb. bass and you catch them every other cast all day and all night.  You've got everything set up, new 21 ft. Ranger with a 250 on the back, all new Rods with brand new Ambasadours.  You get out there and fish the first night and it's going great.

 Then you wake up the next morning and it's pouring down rain, 60 mph winds,  10 foot visibility and 7' waves.  You're BUMMED out! and can't even leave the cabin because of all the lightning.  You're stuck inside like this for the next 2 days.

 Then on the 3rd morning you somehow wake up at 5:30, just as the sun is coming up, after planning to sleep in because of the rain.  You look outside and the weather is PERFECT and the water is as smooth as ICE all across the whole lake.

 I bet that's the feeling our A10 pilots and Apache pilots in Iraq have today :)

a bad day fishin is better than a good day at work. ;)

That sounds like a dream date if you're with a chick. :cool:
