    How big is that bottom pike?

    Here we go:

    I’d try the merge feature but I think it’d just be confusing.

    There’s a good thread where folks were discussing this just the other day.

    Course, one other thing to consider.

    Just a little English nerd comment then.  The plural of Jones is Joneses.  The possessive form of Jones is Jones’.  While you might not want a house like the Jones’ [house], in daily life we’re all still trying to keep up with the Joneses.  Your ad copy should be, “When you don’t want to be like the Joneses.” Does that make sense?

    Here’s an even more pedantic (if that is possible) explanation:

    http://bja.oxfordjournals.org/cgi/content/full/90/5/708

    Also, I would agree with the others above that highlighting “don’t” in an ad is never the best subliminal message, and would suggest that you instead highlight “you,” which has a whole set of positive, eye-grabbing connotations.

    Best,
    Zach

    Some comments.  This isn’t the kind of board where people get thrown off for expressing opinions, especially ones which are not especially controversial.  However, I would appreciate it if you would refrain from using all-caps, especially in titles, as it is considered shouting on the internet.  I worked hard to make this place look halfway decent, and therefore, I have fixed your title for you.

    If people want to comment on this they are welcome to.  However, I very seriously doubt that you’re going to find anyone here who wants to stand up and discourse on Latin, or really, anyone who will care enough to engage with you on these subjects.  As this is your second post, I would just point out that not every fly fishing board is the same.

    Also, I would invert the Zahn Builders logo so that the white square dissolves into the background – it’s distracting and looks like whoever did the artwork was bound to use a graphic supplied to them by a non-designer.

    I’m gonna say that was one of these:

    Morelet’s Crocodile
    Crocodylus moreletii

    Diet: Snails, mud turtles, small mammals, catfish. Juveniles eat insects, snails, slugs, and other small animals.

    Habitat: Mostly freshwater areas, sometimes brackish water around coastal areas

    Distribution: Belize, Guatemala, and Mexico

    Conservation: Hunters seeking their high-quality skin drastically depleted the population mid-century.

    Size: 10-11.5 feet

    That one was only about six feet long, but plenty big enough to mess you up.

    Actually I can imagine very well.

    Looks very similar to tilt/shift lens effects.

    In looking at the video, it looks like it really does just stick to itself, so I guess using it as a patch would be out.

    And I would say, when this post came up, I would never have believed an American angler might be kidnapped while on a fishing trip in Mexico.
