Default Hero Worship

Hi All

Looks Like I've missed an interesting day on here. Seems all the meaty stuff has been deleted before I logged on. I see we have also gained and lost a new member who should probably have taken his user name to heart and zipped it.

Anyway back to the title and to initiate some debate. Seems to me that there are quite a few on here who think they are the dogs *******s in all things fly tying, fishing, casting, etc. They post their pretty pictures, dazzle us with their descriptions and all their loyal followers faint and fawn and race to be first on with their platitudes and pish to further enhance the already over inflated egos of their self purporting gods. Heaven help anyone with the temerity ( or humour which usually goes unnoticed) to criticise these offerings. So guys get your heids oot yer cracks, get a life and realise that you are not even half as good as you think you are. For all you hero worshipers, you need to grow up and start thinking for yourselves, listen to everyone's point of view equally and you will get more out of this forum.

Kenny

You need examples: which guys and which cracks? Stand your comments up if you have the backbone.

Do a search through the forum and name and shame.

Well not many get to see me in action! (joke before anyone thinks I am serious and challenges me to a fish off or some such macho thang!)
By the way Joinnied I spoke to Stuart Crofts today he says if you still haven't got any organza you are welcome to email him and he will send you some.
