Oh, my Dog; he's from Arkansas.

Well, as places go, Arkansas is right up there on the list.

Take centuries of inbreeding, stir in some federal projects like large
dams, send Orvis catalogues with lots of pictures of fly fishing gear,
hike up the holler to get the sucker gigger to steer your john boat,
advertise to St. Louis, Little Rock, Memphis, Dallas, and Chicago
yuppies with more money than sense. and you will have a fundamentalist
C&R culture.

Or whatever other culture is being shilled. Sounds a lot like places in
America.

Obviously, these interlopers have presented a picture of fly fishing
to the impressionable locals, who think that they represent all
FF'ers. (I say "picturre", as reading is not a normal skill
there'bouts).

Yeah, it ain't likely we'll find anyone there to match your own intellectual
accomplishments. Wouldn't want to hold our breath in the hope of having a
Rhodes Scholar jumping up anywhere out of there, huh?

It is therefore understandable that HG is upset.

No, it is not therefore understandable. It is understandable because he is
deranged. I wouldn't go so far as to state that he represents a clear
danger to himself and the neighbors children......but someone should.

Although he barks B movie platitudes, thinking he is presenting ideas.

and there's a lot of that going around, I hear.

he may have run
across some of these "city fellers" in the john boats.

Hm.....

Leads one to speculate that perhaps folks who spend time somewhere on this
planet might run into all kinds of folks. Thanks for the insight.

Enjoy

More than you'll ever know.

cheers

oz, who lives only about 100 mi. north of there and sometimes fishes
there if I get tired of picking over at Mt. View. -- and, yes, I can
feel my brain withering ever since I moved here.

And we can see it happening from here.
