A lifetime ago I once lived and worked on the Reservoir at a now long closed down marina called "The Old Trace Marina" that was located next to the Jackson Yacht Club.

The land the marina sat on is now filled with upper end homes set in what was once raw wooded land.

I would often fish for bass with plastic worms all up and down the many piers the boats were docked at and did land my share of bass and ran a few trot lines for catching catfish.

I would sometimes run across the lake to Pelahatchie Bay and fish for bass in areas with underbrush, stumps and surface vegetation using plastic frogs, crawfish, worms, etc.

BUT------like I said, that was a lifetime ago------------like in the early 70's.


The first marina you can access the reservoir if using I-55 is to get off at County Line Rd. and head to the reservoir in Ridgeland and that is where Main Harbor Marina is located. I'm not sure if they have backdown ramps or other means to launch a boat, so you may want to call ahead.

On the other hand, I wish I had NOT done the master bath sinks in cultured marble.

My sink is all full of surface cracks near the drain,

Same here. I have a single sink in the bathroom, and it too has surface cracks at the drain.

Give me a gal with "factory air" over the thigh rubbers that will need patches on their jeans inner thighs long before the rest of the material wears thin.

I too like smothered potatoes with onions cooked in tallow. I'll peel, then cube the potatoes in 1 in. square chunks and put them in a bowl and cover them in cold water to remove some of the starch.

I halve an onion and slice it in thin crescent shapes, add them to the frying pan to saute a while, add the potatoes and let them start to cook and season with Slap Ya Mama, black pepper and some smoked paprika. Cook till fork tender and serve.

I watched that show as a kid in the late 50's---------also Captain Kangaroo, The Howdy Doody Show, Romper Room, Zorro and WAY too many westerns

I've had the cultured marble for 25 years in the main bathroom and have had no issue with it other than digging out and replacing the silicone caulk in the seams about 4 times over the years.

I'll never have ceramic tile with all those grout lines to deal with.

Nope. She loves to drown her popcorn in that fake-arse crap they refer to as butter, and I can't even stand the smell of it, much less consume it.

If in doubt, bring it to a gunsmith for a look-see. Can't cost that much.

It's been out of control for a while now. The last movie the wife and I went to see was the last "Top Gun-Maverick" and between tickets, 2 popcorns and 2 medium sodas, it was over $50.


To me, that's insane.
