That would be some SERIOUS stacking of the deck. It would give you a virtual lock on biggest grower, thats for sure. Put a fish in their hands today, and it starts growing yesterday...

Tell me about it 1 season with them and he got 4" growth on a Koi that had barely grown 1/2 that much in 2 seasons... and those 2 seasons both included 6 months in a serious mud pond.

Hmmm..... Jesus' mud pond is about 14' deep in the middle........ I wonder

Speaking of mud ponds and shiro's, you ought to see Darryls Shiro after it came out of the mud at the Downs in November. It looked nice at last years show, but now it is much bigger and a real beauty queen.

I don't want to talk about it
Next year is in the works, but this year I guess we'll be trying to schedule a trip to Dallas instead

I prefer to think of it as a "365 day Postponement"
Dallas in the spring... It'll do
