Paradise PFA, a few years ago when they had very strict fishing in the trophy pond. When they redid the main lake they opened the pressure on the trophy lake and kind of ruined it for awhile. People were fishing with live bait and breaking many of the regulations.

The big lake is now open after being stocked with no fishing for five years. looking forward to going fishing down there again after the five years. I hope they refurbish the tropy pond and go back to the heavy restrictions. Where in Dodge County is the good fishing?

....."could impact on Earth on March 21, 2014...."

Hah! That'll be during Hillary's second term.
?? What did she know, and when did she know it??

No Eric, these are monster Georgia largemouth Bass. If you didn't know it, the State of Georgia holds the record for the largest large mouth bass at 24 pounds, 3 ounces. This record has stood for over 60 years, which is truly amazing. With all the Bass fishing tournaments over the years, you would think it would have been broken by now.

The Maya calculations were off by two years.

it has been given a "Torino hazard rating" of one.

Let me know when it is given an "Pinto hazard rating" of one.

Thank goodness! Now I don’t have to worry about all that pesky saving for retirement.

Although, it does appear that I'm about to come into a lot of money from a recently deceased Nigerian relative whom I have never heard of before.

[Boiling Pots]

Phew!

Saved from almost 2 yrs of the Messiah.

I’ve seen the movie... don’t worry, it all turns out ok.

[Cacique]

Why is this article from 1903 being bumped up now?

[whatshotandwhatsnot]

Can I run up all my credit cards, then?

One less thing for me to worry about. At 75,000 miles an hour I doubt we’ll feel much pain.

Apocalypse Not: 'Killer Asteroid' Will Pass Us By

Sept. 3, 2003 — The Earth is not quite so doomed, experts said Wednesday.

Fears that a giant asteroid could whack into the planet on March 21, 2014 and plunge it into a nuclear winter are misplaced, they said, explaining that fresh calculations showed the monster rock would safely pass us by.....

Asteroid may hit Planet Earth on March 21, 2014............... Scientists monitoring an asteroid have warned it could collide with Earth in just over a decade.

Ummm...........can someone at Sky News use this?

It says that were it to hit the earth it would be traveling at over 75,000 mph. I don't buy it. The asteroid in the movie 'Deep Impact' was traveling much slower than that.

That's a bit more than 20 miles-per-second, which seems high. I think asteroids usually hit us at about 15 to 17 mps. Maybe this one's orbit is a bit more hyperbolic?

The newly discovered asteroid, known as 2003 QQ47

Newly dicovered?
From 2003?

Sounds like 7 years+ discovery to me.

Of course, if they're talking geologic time...

... never mind...

[Publius6961]

Not funny.
Even Arnold what's his name couldn't manage the feat, dead or alive.

That's 2970 punds for a small 30-incher.

Just saying.

You get your science facts from movies??
'Fess up.
You voted for Obama, didn't you.
