Then you must compel yourself to pay attention, old boy.


Well, I'm working on it. Pray tell, what is it I'm missing?

It's a literacy test. Take your time. Be sure to check your

answer before
submitting it.


How do you know it's a literacy test?


I wrote it.

Is it of the sort your
institution administers?


Yes.

Did you pass?


I wrote it.

Wolfgang
well, this should be fun. :)


I was right.

And your answer is wrong.

Wolfgang
and we're just warming up! :)

Amen!

Ya'll thrash out the details. I'm in.


Sounds like we're talking about a separate trip from the June
both-sides-of-the-bridge clave.

If so, I vote for mid-September. As if I can plan for next week, let alone
for nine months from now. Perhaps I can even line up the R Lake cabin...

If we do it, I'm going to take a day to head north to the ancestral fishing
grounds in northern Baraga county, see if I can find what was my great
uncle's fishing camp on the Huron River. Ya'll are welcome to come along.
Can you say "coasters"? Thought you could :-) Oh, and the Hilltop
Restaurant in L'Anse serves a good Swedish smorgasbord. Think it is
all-you-can-eat. And, Jeff, I believe it is pasty-free.

Mid-September works for me. Nice time of year up there. The brookies will
be in their glory.

If you can't get the cabin, I can almost certainly arrange to use Fisher's
shack.

fishing
grounds in northern Baraga county, see if I can find what was my great
uncle's fishing camp on the Huron River. Ya'll are welcome to come along.

Well, L'Anse is only about an hour's drive from Bruces, and the Huron has
been on my list for a long time. Jay tells me that the Sturgeon is good
too. And then, there's the Otter, the Silver, the Slate, the Salmon Trout,
the Yellow Dog.........

As a matter of fact, from that neighborhood, it's just a short stroll on up
into the Keweenaw.......hm......

Yah, dey took da pasties off ta make room for da olive bar, eh? :)

restaurantal.

didn't we fish the sturgeon one day? bold, beautiful water...we needed
to go farther upstream, i think. those others sound fun. jim harrison
wrote of the yellow dog in "true north" i believe.

hey, what is a "browns" anyway? g



Salmo trutta?


cleveland salmo trutta?? nah...i don't buy that one.



Yes I do. I've only fished tons once, and was unsuccessful. I put it down
to not being in the company of ROFFians.


inebriation does seem to help...



...warming up the choir...


um...you've not heard me sing...might better work on organizing a coven.
according to rachel, i'd be better suited at grunting incantations.

I do believe so. It was down that long and lovely canyon, if it's
the one I'm thinking of.
