investigation surrounding a murdered mallard on millheim's main avenue
has encouraged me to be circumspect regarding my presence in
pennsylvania this year. had i been in the vicinity of millheim, i'm
sure these would have been some of my comments on the events in the area
between may 14-23...

2. rather than dour and serious, swedes seem to be quite humorous,
engaging, friendly, open, and true. they do sing a bit funny, but i
suspect if accompanied by wayno and his dyslexic guitar it would be a
sweet sound indeed. of course, these behaviors might simply have been a
result of the camaraderie, along with the fat, carbohydrates, beer, wine
and whisky we fed this swede.

Hell, you all asked me to sing. What's a fellow to do?
(I never get to sing at home, wonder why?)
It might have been the carbohydrates........YES, definitely the
carbohydrates. Or maybe the fat.......

14. there is a beauty in flycasting when done by those who have mastered
it. i believe roger could use a flyrod and flyline to sign his name with
60 foot casts. thanks for those images roger...very inspiring. of
course, there was that leader/hook thing... NINE times. hell, i think
i'd figured it out after seven or eight times... but, given you were in
a foreign country, i guess NINE times is understandable. BTW, how do
you say NINE in swedish?

Nio ;(
It was all those fish rising, in combination with bad confidence.
I thought there was something wrong with my timing rather than suspecting
and taking the time to examine the fly.
That STILL ****es me off........

15. there is a beauty in a flyfisherman confident of his methods, and
who applies those methods successfully and intelligently, with a
knowledge of the water and the fish. thanks mikeM for continuing to
endure my matriculation, and for your unselfish lessons...

Here, here.......

16. even with a tongue freshly pierced by a barbed hook, indian joe can
recount stories befitting a much better traveling companion than he was
shackled to for the duration at penns. you folks who haven't yet
experienced a few hours or days with the pride of wilmington are missing
a gem.

And he can cook too...........

18. despite all its flaws, this place has enriched my life, and i am
forever thankful to all of you who have shared your time and good spirit
with me.

Well, thank you too Jeff.

19. mallards ought not be waddling across a busy millheim street...

Busy?
I thought that mallard only had a problem with ONE car ;-)
