OK, here's the hard one. There's one more thing I'd like from you
guys, if I can get it.

I'm even wiling to bribe you for it. :-)

This is normally a two-parter, but Hambone Slim won the first part out
of the gate. (Your $10 Cabela's gift cert will be coming shortly,
Hambone Slim.)

I would love to have a paragraph or two from one of your spouses,
partners, significant others or non-flyfisher friends about what it's
like to live with a flyfisher or a story about the things they love
you in spite of. If you look at the Chocolate page or the Antique
Tractor Pulling page, you'll see these near the top of each page.

If anybody wants to come up with this, I'll send you a $10 gift
certficate via email from Cabela's or the place of your (or their)
choice that offers $10 gift certificates. If you don't want to post it
here, you can send it to me via email. If you want it on the page
anonymously, fine. If you want credit and/or a link to your site, also
fine.


Tim is one of the nicest, most pleasant people I've ever known. He is a
stunning example of manliness, is incredibly handsome, and knows exactly
what I'm thinking all of the time. Most of the time I'm thinking, "I wish
Tim could spend more time doing what he loves to do - fly fishing. He works
so hard and deserves all of the freedom I can give him." I absolutely
cherish each moment I spend with him, and appreciate that he treats me to a
glimpse of himself now and then on his way to and from the river.

ROTFL!!!!

OK, I think I'm going to need this one notarized. BTW, I *will*
actually use this on the site unless you tell me not to.

Still ROTFL!!!!

Okay, Tim, you take the prize on this one. Is the address you post from
(minus the NO SPAM) the correct place to send the Cabela's gift cert?
If not, you can email me privately, if you don't want to post the
correct address.

That's okay - thanks. Give $10 to a charitable cause of your choice, as long
as it's not some liberal weenie group. ;-)

Indeed, she can donate it to the United States Treasury, which - thanks to our
"conservative" leaders - is about the biggest charity case on the planet....

I will add $10 to my current pledge to the upcoming National Kidney
Foundation blogathon. Kidney patients thank you.

I think the thing most people whose spouses have outdoor hobbies like
about them is that the spouse gets the heck out of the house and away
without it being to the nearest beer joint / strip club. And the
spouse comes home relatively sober and relatively happy.

The spouse then has the whole day to herself (or himself, but that's
not as workable if he doesn't cook) to read a novel while soaking in a
hot bubble bath, go shopping, talk for hours on the phone, make a
quilt with only the household pets to interfere, get out the bow and
arrows and go to the targets, chop down the tree she's afraid he'll
kill with himself if he chops, work on the '57 Chev engine again, or
just sleep in. Whatever it is, the spouse can do his / her own thing.
There are spouses who resent being left alone. I'd try to explain
them some other way than by saying that they have no inner resources
and are a waste of air and space, but that could be incorrect. I
doubt it's incorrect and will take a lot of convincing if you wish to
argue.

Often taunted by trout. Almost entirely harmless. Really.

Well Flyfishers,

I'll be moving on soon, but I'll keep an eye out here for a while
longer. The brewers have given me some great info, so I'm off to build
their page.

The flyfishing page is completed and linked into the rest of the site,
including the bit from Tim's...er...spouse. Thank you very much for all
your input. I've truly had a blast with you guys! You're a LOT of fun.
I hope you all receive much spousal support and very fine loot!

Sponsor a Flyfisher!

P.S. Oh, Hambone Slim! OK, my Pied Piper of hobby newsgroups, take me
to the acoustic guitarists! I'm really looking forward to this one. I
was in theater and circus for years and I've always had a soft spot for
musicians.

I wonder what sort of pornographic suggestions they'll make before they
figure out I'm not a spammer. You should have seen what the beekeepers
said. Wow!
