Though the thought (of " teaching him a thing or two" ) has crossed my mind many times, I do value the friendship and the comaraderie experienced on more " casual" hunts. I' ll let by23856' s comments stand for the rest of my thoughts on the issue (Man, if you only knew what a compliment THAT was, by23856!

)
But when it comes to getting down and dirty and going after a wall-hanger I' ve been diligently pursuing. It' s time to go solo, baby!
