I Pledge To Re-Read The Rules Every Now And Then

In fact, I’m going to go over them right now so I will have a clear understanding of what ya’ll should expect from me. I promise to abide by the rules, and enjoy it!

I pledge not to cross the line, although I’m not too sure I’ll pledge to stay in line. I got a paddling at school in the 1rst grade for that. It was the after lunch, back to class line. I was in it, it started moving and I went with it all the way back to the classroom and sat down in my desk just like we’d been doing. Somehow, that line left the teacher talking to another teacher in the lunchroom. Boy was she ill when she couldn’t find us where she’d left us. That was 53 years ago and I’ve been funny about staying in line ever since. I always suspect there’s something “fishy” going on.
1. I pledge not to shame myself with profanity on BigBluegill.com. I pledge to work on it everywhere else too. Dang! I can’t believe I went that far.
2. I pledge not to get into race, religion or politics here. I promise to get into some of them elsewhere, depending on how long the line is.
3. I pledge to stick to discussions to do with bluegill, shellcracker, crappie and other sunfish. NOT BASS. I know they are sunfish but they bring out the profanity in me and I done swore off that. I do enjoy slinging them a fer piece though so I guess as long as it’s along those lines. There’s them lines again. See what I mean? Gotta be careful.
4. I pledge not to care whether you keep ‘em or chunk ‘em. If it naturally comes up when and why you choose your way, I’ll let it go right in one eye and out the other. Let’s be fair. I’ll do it my way over here, and you do it your way over there.
5. I pledge not to worry about how Off Topic any discussion is or becomes. I’ll let the executive decision makers worry about that. I’ll either read it or I won’t. Join it or not. I’m a big boy. I promise not to be offended if an executive decision is made to “Nip It, Nip It In The Bud”. That’s why we let them have that bullet.
6. I pledge to look up the meaning of “fishing methodology”, someday. Just guessing, it sounds like more trouble than I’d be willing to commit to but I will look it up…. someday. Meanwhile, ya’ll knock yourselves out with your method describing and I’ll steal all the good ideas that don’t seem too hard. Don’t expect much teaching from me though, nothing incredible on my end.
7. I pledge to keep my photos in line. There’s that thing about lines again. I just know there’s something fishy about this one but I’ll stay in it.
8. I pledge not to sell anything here except my intellect and I’m letting it go dirt cheap. I tried giving it away elsewhere with little success, so somebody’s got to pay. Or… you can pay me to keep it to myself. I’m easy.
9. I pledge not to attack anyone for their preferred method of fishing, unless they are secretly fishing for bass while pretending to fish for bluegill. That just ain't funny. I'll sling 'em the bass I caught while actually fishing for bluegill. That ain't actually attacking them anyway. I got to release them bait stealers somehow.
10. I pledge not to use the messaging system to promote any religious or political agenda. Left Wing, Right Wing, Bluegills ain’t got no wings. They do have gendas. Bulls is prettier than sows. I’m not promoting it; I’m just letting my intellect run free. If this offends anyone, just say so and I’ll keep the bulls to myself. You can have them ugly girl gills.
11. I pledge to enjoy my visits to BigBluegill.com. That’s all I’ve got to say about that.

I solemnly swear,

Boogieman

I did it again!!!
I re-read the rules. Surprising how simple they are and easy to follow. We all make mistakes and sometimes get a little passionate about our favorite little fish buddy. That's why I pledge to re-read the rules all along, to keep my passion at public decency levels. I love this site and our simple rules make it enjoyable for all. I don't care if you re-read 'em or not. I just know it don't hurt me none to do it all along. I'm a backslider from way back.
