Default For Those of you with Cabin Fever

Here's a couple of neat games that my pirate mate, Gravedigger Max sent to me last month to help take my mind off being cooped up.

For those who like to fish but not ice fish there's Kenai River Run, salmon fishing game. Just move the X to where you want to cast and left click, you can also choose your own lure from the tackle box on the right.

Kenai River Run

If you don't like to fish and have Cabin Fever really bad you can always blow things up with the NLOS Cannon. Adjust angle of cannon and velocity of projectile and then blow up the targets. A lot of fun when you are really annoyed, especially if you turn the sound up.

Cannon Challenge Game : Future Weapons : Discovery Channel

Either of these games is a lot more fun then beating yourself over the head with your detector, your detector will thank you for playing.

Cheers,

BDA

Very Addictive! Anything is better than Cabin Fever.

Have Fun,

What could be more fun than fishing with a .22 cal. We used to do that when we were kids, put a little bread in the water and shoot them when the fish came to the surface. Nice panfried fish for breakfast, so long as you didn't get hit by a richocet or have Old Man Lightbourne shut you down for firing rifles at 6 in the morning.

Old Man Lightbourne did come in handy one day when we snagged a huge snapper while fishing for Sunnies, blew its' head off with his twelve gauge. He wasn't having snapping turtles 18" across hanging around the kids' swimming hole. A real curmudgeon but a good soul, no doubt about it.

Cheers,

BDA

I used to bow hunt for carp and hunt snappers with 22's.Snapper turtle is good eatin.We would also hunt bullfrogs with bb guns.I grew up in a small town.we had a bunch of us kids that rode around on mini bikes and gocarts and were allways packin 22's and shotguns.I dont think you could get away with that today.But then again the last time I visited that town,it was like a blast from the past.Little kids sittin around the old country store and bikers rippin up the streets on harleys and hotrods.Some things never change much here in upstate NY.
