....and Bill went to bed the night before Christmas with visions of a few boxes of Okie drifters turning into a new two-handed rod dancing in his head .

Fish on..........

Does anyone have a photo of the world famous "nail polish pink" okie drifter that they could post. Just curious as to what they look like. Thanks.

Heck, for only $15 a piece, I will gladly sell you some OakieTacs. ;\)

It's a real pink Oakie, with an engraved signature by The Real Spoon Man! Fish can't resist them! Fish can't resist the Real Spoon Man! Fish can't resist Tac! Fish can't resist pin nail polish! What more could you want??????

PS Bill - I might be buying some of those 50 cent oakies from you. Could you do me a favor and sign them, though. ;\)

Yeah coot, my ass those are gooeybobs. Gooeybobs are soft and rubbery. Maybe that's just another nickname you Canadians give Okies? :rolleyes: \:D

the old style oakies I have say "oakie across the top ( one letter on each bump across the top)

So where can I get some more. Or does some board member need to make some molds, and make a killing selling "hokies" that's not copyright infringement is it.
dang I wish someone would start getting excited about corkies, I am starting to feel self concious for using them!
