Forced Fishing

My son thinks we're going to hang around the house all day tomorrow so he
can skateboard. I say we're going fishing. What tasteless, odorless
substance can I put in his breakfast so he will either be 100% agreeable, or
lie quietly in the bed of the pickup truck while I fish? It's supposed to
rain Sunday, so this is important. Stop laughing and come up with some
suggestions.

KCN?

who, admittedly, isn't all that sure about the tasteless part.

Legal to administer to minors without a prescription? Difficult. How 'bout
a 16 year old cheerleader? That'll get a rise outta him.

Yeah well, I have no sons or other irritations, if I want to go fishing, I
go fishing. This may well be perverse and unconventional, but that is how it
is!

Forcing a hobby on someone is a waste of good energy. Why in the world
would you wish to inflict this on your son? If a person is interested, they
will pursue fishing with or without assistance. I started flyfishing,
alone, 48 years ago and wild horses couldn't have kept me away from it.
Early in my fishing days, I used to try to convince friends and family of
the joys, but found that those that were interested , did it, and those that
weren't, ignored me - and just as well. Find something else to enjoy with
your son, you'll both be much happier.

Tell him that you are dying (hey, we all are) and that you want to
spend time with him before you go. You won't really be lying since
with each passing day, we are but one step closer to the grave. ;-)

Not perverse at all. Fishing is more important than oxygen. All other things
are foolishness. Except sex.

He loves fishing. He's not being forced, on average. It's just that for the
past 3 weekends, we've had hideous weather. He thinks it's a day for
skateboarding. He's a lost soul.

I think this idea wins the prize!
