My favorite is Bonges Tavern in Perkinsville (just south of Elwood). Honestly the best food in Indiana and it's doesn't steal your wallet. It's in an old tavern / general store / post office. Neat place. Grew up as a river rat just upstream of perkinsville. My elementary school was just outside of the town. Spent many days playing around that bar and along the river.. Good food these days but hard for me to go back and not think of it as it was in the 80s and early 90s. A rough bar or closed. Besides all the fancy lads coming in and talking about my people! Lol...maybe late 90s when they re-opened. We would go after the kitchen closed and drink beer with the staff. They would drop the price of beer to normal cost. It was a blast but eventually they closed that too. Glad they have succeeded there.

Dang...sorry to read her troubles. I have no idea but think I would have to discuss with docs and maybe get second opinions from other docs that have experienced patients in similar conditions.

Be careful of the saltwater catfish. They carry the same toxins that stingrays have. I spent an afternoon in the ER. Got stuck in the hand and in less than a half hour my arm was numb up to my shoulder. If they do get you, soak your hand in hot water as hot as you can stand. The heat will neutralize the toxins. That lesson cost me $1900.00 in the form the hospital bill. The catfish are quite tasty though. 😁 My wife got stung by a ray several yrs ago. We would boil a pot of water and soak her foot. It would knock the pain down. She is tough and was in severe pain. Our son offered to pee on her foot. He was probably 7 or 8 and had heard the cure for a jelly fish sting. Lol at least we got to laugh at that.

Beach or piers just bring your normal catfish rods/reels for bottom fishing and a mid weight spinning for casting.
I like to catch my bait so either cut bait, sand fleas or bust up snails. Spoons for casting and sabiki rigs for bait.
I have caught snook, redfish, sheepshead, pompano, shark, rays and whiting. But always without fail my 1st day I will catch those dang catfish...
If eating the rays are good as well as the catfish despite what others say. Never ate the reddish or snook but only because they were too big for the slot

Heck of a come back. 21 points down at one time. Came back and tied it and lost on a last second shot. Watched the winning shot by Boo and he did push off on Kopp. I'm sure the ref swallowed the whistle on that play.. I almost went to bed at the half.. Same. Glad I watched it. Frustrated with a 2 point L after giving them 4 on a double T. Lots of missed free throws...a nearly 8 min stretch without scoring....oh well. Northwestern is playing good ball and road games are really hard to win. I liked the second half effort for sure

No offense but anyone in their 70s or older should not run.
I have no clue who is good or bad or neutral. My personal engagement of anything politics is at all time low. Don't trust any single person.
My observations over they years...whomever is being groomed as the early front runner ends up falling out before primaries are over, regardless of party.

Well span870 had his hair dresser's uncle's neighbor tell him the DNR used parachutes for rattlers that were disguised as Walmart bags. They used them suckers to plant poisonous snakes all over the hills of South and Central IN. He was sure of it because that neighbor was uncle of a dnr laborer assigned to police up the bags.

The DNR drops them in high deer population areas from BLACK OPS HELICOPTERS late at night to help control populations. Whoa whoa whoa....are you authorized to discuss alledge operations? I didn't think so

My coworker always talking about getting a chance to buy his ltl if ever given a chance. He about cried when the dollar figure was so expensive it was prohibitive. I told him the state was fishing for upper end interest.
We started talking about why the state wouldn't raffle off say 100 ltl for $100 per chance. Sure this has been thought of. Maybe the state is prohibited from offering a raffle. Maybe a lotto like a big game tag. Or they could do a $5 entry fee, nonrefundable, then offer the lifetime to a handful of winners each year at like 20x annual cost of the tags.

Some guys laughed at me at work (not unusual) when I said " ANY team in the Big 10 can beat ANY team in the Big 10 at ANY time". I believe that 100%. They must not watch many games. Besides any road game can be brutal, Minnesota vs Iu as an example or Penn State draining 18 3s vs IU. Look at the log jam of 2nd-3rd right now. Purdue pretty much locked in with only 2 losses. Rutgers lost to IL earlier today. Iu is in it but they have to fight

I'd come help clean up shooting lanes and build food plots but I'd hate to overstay my welcome. I will only hunt Oct 30 to gun season. Hardly notice me. Think your wife will fix me a breakfast sandwich on the morning hunts? Not a chance! More like plain oatmeal with prunes. Hang around too long and she'll have you running on the treadmill and doing lower body workouts found on YouTube. Oh. Well don't tell her. I don't need to disappoint anymore people!

Got some wings, a thick juicy ribeye, and apple sausage on Big Z right now for dinner. We've been contemplating on food for Superbowl Sunday. Kicked around pulled pork, wings, steaks, Papa Charlie's Italian beef, King Gyros, or last but not least, Golden Coral. Still havent decided what we want yet. If going out King Gyros gets my vote. Been 10 yrs since I have been to one of those places. The one in Anderson used to have awesome BBQ chicken too. It was one of the meals my wife craved while pregnant. That has been nearly 17 yrs ago.
