Say what you will about PC doctrine, the facts are incontrovertible
and the facts are these, eliminating offensive language from public
discourse makes it more civil and making racial slurs the sole
province of racists and bigots helps teach our young people tolerance.
There have been excesses to be sure, but overall we are a better
society and a better people because of so-called political correctness.

OTT, fishing is very good inspite of the high air temps - in the 80s
this afternoon. Took big brookies yesterday, and big salmon today.
Brookies on nymphs, salmon on tan caddis drys, size 18. Fished Harry
Mason's Killer Caddis and got two nice salmon fishing it wet, just
under the surface.

Another week and a half to go.

Nice to hear the weather warmed up for you. I'm being kept busy
by the cute young blonde, she's wearing me out.
