Comment by Leo Nguyen on May 21, 2012 at 5:17pm: Tooty, this is what happen to a 36 years old living in the west coast, experiencing the ultra fast pace of life. 1/3 of my head already covered in salt, while the other 2/3 filled with black and golden (sun cooked) pepper color. It's better to shave my hair down to a #2 or #3, and not worry about hair management in the long run. I do way too much sports to have cool, groovy, hip, or styling hair-do. Military rough cut is more than sufficient for me. Either that, or crew cut, which is the best in my standards.

Comment by DAVID L EITUTIS on May 21, 2012 at 5:07pm: Yeah Heck Jeffrey I was almost a hippie back in those days and my hairs , all 3 of em used to touch the top of my ears. Yep those Sisters were good eating and had never thought of stuffing em with crab meat, couldn't have afforded the crab meat back then.

Jeffrey were you born with hair or did you buy some later on in Life cause it looks like you have some now.

Comment by DAVID L EITUTIS on May 21, 2012 at 5:03pm: Hey Jim,
My buddy Phil and I started fishing Shabbona the 2nd year it was open and caught many bass over 3 1/2-4 lb. range . I'm talking hundreds of fish here now. It started going down hill in the late 80's when the Chicago crowd discovered it . We used to go there on a beautiful Sat. or Sunday and there was never more than 8-10 boat trailers in the main parking lot. Those were the days before the concession stand opened and boat rentals started. I have to break in my new motor and that's were I"m going mid week either this week or next. Event Horizon 2 needs to get some hours on it !

Comment by DAVID L EITUTIS on May 21, 2012 at 4:58pm: HEY LEO, SEE that's what living on the LEFT COAST has done to you and your hair!!! What haid do Leo, never seen a pic of you without a fishing hat on!!!

Comment by jim cosgrove on May 21, 2012 at 4:53pm: i remember when that was THE lake in no il.heard an eleven pound bass came outta there in the 80s.way to crowded for me

Comment by Jeffrey D. Abney on May 21, 2012 at 4:48pm: I had hair when I needed it Tooty...and you can't go wrong in John Deere Green! Nice looking sisters too!

Comment by Leo Nguyen on May 21, 2012 at 2:19pm: Oh heck no! 36 and look that young?! I'm 36 now, and I look like I'm in my 40's, or so every at work and in the field said. Must be my salt and pepper hair-dos. I can't believe a mid 40s engineers and scientists would call me "sir", instead of the equal first name basis. Sheesh. I feel old.

Comment by DAVID L EITUTIS on May 21, 2012 at 2:06pm: Yep Leo old buddy we were all alot younger then and had many hopes for the world. Actually I was about 36 then , not sure when the pic was taken by my buddy Phil . IF it was 1985 I was 36 . I'll have to research it some in my photo albumns cause I basically quit fishing for bass a LLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLONG TIME AGO.

Comment by Leo Nguyen on May 21, 2012 at 1:48pm: Hey hey! Tooty before his salt and pepper head! Too late with me. I have my salt and pepper since 7th grade. Is this when you were in your early 20s?
