You settled for just reading the Shanty Forum for a whole month without any posts
Talk about your exceptionally high level of self restraint.   

Hope now that you have "come out on the Ice (Shanty)", that we will be seeing more of you.
(Catching fish, that is . . .  )

Better yet, teach the wife to fix the heater.

OGGYDOGGY,

Your first posting got me wondering how long it is before new IceShanty members make their first posting and their first topic. I have started a new topic inquiring about this at:

Again,
welcome aboard.

Easier than teaching the wife to fish or fix the furnace is:

Teach yourself to LEAVE THE PHONE HOME

Your home must be a ways from your shanty. Could you have made it back for afternoon bite.
