the above are the "terms & conditions" of a friendly wager for year 2007 that i proposed, on 29 December 2006, to Sharma aka crazy fisherman, an angling friend all the way in Subang. it was dully accepted by him with minor adjustments and additions. so on 1 January 2007, it was... "gentlemen, start ur engines... i meant setup your tackles!!!"

as far as i know, from Sharma's smses, he went fishing right away... but caught nothing. me on the other hand, gave him a day's head start. the result as u can see, is posted on my maiden post. now, i have 1 point!!!

p/s: sharma... just a friendly reminder, u still owe me a surecatch tackle bag and a minnow lure!!!
