My overnight neighbors - Team Trails, Dec 06, 2008
What's wrong with this picture?
The Team Trails website indicates the bass tournament blast off is at "safe light" this morning. It's now long past safe light and their rig is still here. What am I missing?

Visual Thinkers
When I talk to other people I translate my pictures into stock phrases or sentences I have "on tape" inside my head. Those kids who called me Tape Recorder were right about me. They were mean, but they were right. I am a tape recorder. That's how I'm able to talk. The reason I don't sound like a tape recorder anymore is that I have so many stock phrases and sentences I can move around into new combinations. All my public speaking has been a huge help. When I got criticisms saying I always give the same speech, I started moving my slides around. That moved my phrases around too.
