Just when you think the boy couldn't POSSIBLY get any more ****ing
pathetic.

No, you still can't be me.

who, grateful that he will soon be spending nine glorious days at play
in the fileds of the lord in the company of as fine a group of adults
as one could wish for, can nevertheless not help but wonder what sort
of mess he's going to have to clean up when he gets back.

That article contains the disgusting, absolutely shocking, almost
unbelievable statement that "More than 70% of adult Milwaukeeans
reported that they had at least one alcoholic drink within the past 30
days."

Talk about binge drinking!

How can they get any fishing done when they're drunk all the time?!?

Well, anecdotally, all the guys in my projectionist club in HS were
short. Each had an IQ over 160 and none were over 5'6".
Its all a conspiracy.

Oh, yeh, Wolfy. Who is this "fine group of adults" and why aren't you
going fishing with us?

I thought it was very odd that they went back thirty days. One week
to ten days would have seemed more reasonable. There are so many
opportunities over a month to have at least a glass of wine. For those
who get out in the real world once in a while, that is. Not like me.

And on drink on any occasion is not a biggie. I'd want to know about
how often they had two or three or more. Get a little exact there on
that quiz, fellas.

Often taunted by trout. Almost entirely harmless. Really.

The most interesting of the articles by far. In particular it addresses the
importance of birth to age 3 nutrition. Now, if you really want to do
something about poverty and discrimination and ghettos...oh wait, whew,

....started to tell the truth there for a minute. Wouldn't want to do that in
today's society now would I?

Well, I confess I don't understand what all the fuss is about. I mean,
it has been well known for centuries.....possibly millennia.....that
the muse requires liberal stimulation and lubrication. What could
possibly be better than slamming a few Butt-Lites while sitting in
front of the tube on a Saturday afternoon, partaking of the
intellectual challenge that is baseball viewing, to inspire one to
generate one of one's best zingers ever?
