An empty liquor bottle at the end of a clave could mean a successful
clave. ...


And a big load of crap on your living room carpet could mean
someone had a wonderful meal. Not sure I get your point.


You don't.

yeah, not everything is news.

sometimes the lookin is every bit as much fun a part of fishing as the

Finally some discussion of fly fishing! This is a fly fishing NG you
know. Who starts these political self abuse orgies anyway?

Let me know when things firm up about any Auntienoggin forays.

g.c.

Does this make me a middle-poster?

It's a pity you didn't meet Jay while you were here last time. As you
probably remember, Jay is one of the brothers who owns the shack we stayed
in up in the UP. As a matter of fact, Becky and I had dinner with Jay and
his girlfriend night before last. You wouldn't ****in' believe the house
she's got out in Elm Grove. I mean, this place has got THREE zip codes!
And on a teacher's salary? Uh huh. I don't get it. She's got the place up
for sale.......it's too big. No ****. This place is too big for the
Ringling brothers. The HD TV is kick ass though. And the pool
table......in the billiard room......above the garage. Anyway, we did a
sort of Thai thing. Jay made some kind of beef (well, venison, actually)
and green bean thingy that was just WAY too bland till I mashed up some
ginger, garlic, and black pepper in the mortar and pestle (BIG new mortar
and pestle from Chu Hai, the local Asian market) and threw it in. Turned
out pretty good. I was going to make Tung Tong, but what with the wine
flowing and the muse kicking in, I did a soup instead......mushrooms, lemon
grass, galangal, ginger, lime leaves, lime juice, coconut milk, lotus seeds,
cilantro.......you know. Becky says that Patty just sort of pushed all the
meat and veggies out of the way and ate what was left. What was left? I
dunno. Anyway......um.........

Oh yeah, I taught Jay pretty much everything he knows about fly fishing
(well, and cooking and woodworking and brewing and.......well, never mind)
but he sort of went nuts and started fishing all over the western UP. Well,
he might as well be fishing because when he's not, he and his idiot brothers
are taking the barrel stove out of the shack and putting in a propane heater
(what the **** is THAT about, asks I ......to no avail) and now they're
talking about putting in a ****ing CEILING! Honest to God, I don't make
this **** up! Next thing you know they'll be putting in electric lights and
taking out the gas refrigerator. Whattaworld!

O.k., so, Jay doesn't know much about fishing, but he IS enthusiastic, and
he knows the streams up there better than I do because there's no point in
him staying in one place long enough to catch a fish cuz it ain't gonna
happen anyway, but we should definitely consult with him about where to go
if we were to make another trip up that way......and I think we
should......whew!

SO, whatever, yeah, there's lots of streams we haven't fished up there yet,
and I think we should do it......ALL of them.....what the hell.! May is a
good time. September is good too. No bugs to speak of and the fish are
grand. However.........

Wayne and Bill have been talking about a Troll clave (you know.....the lower
peninsula.....BELOW the bridge.....the big mac) on the holy waters sometime
this coming season. If I was in the business of giving advice, and you of
taking it, I'd suggest we get together on the notion of exploring this
possibility. The Au Sable, so I'm told, is big enough to float a Baker AND
it holds trout!

O.k., here's the plan. The way I see it, Jeffie flies in to Cleveland. He
and Bill hitch a ride or hop a freight or something to Dayton. They hook up
with John, hook up the trailer and drive to whereveringod'snamewayneisnow,
shanghai his ass and head north. You and Joel and me START north, cross the
Big Mac, head south and follow the fumes. We all meet somewhere wet.

Does this make me a middle-poster?


Looks like it from here.

Wolfgang
who, having the last word (well, thus far anyway) would appear to be the
bottom poster.
p.s no good reason i can see not to stop and wet a line en route.

That's correct. They never talk about their exploits. Never! They never use
their exploits for personal gain.



I guess that that is why you, the Great Hero, had one story
to tell us about your military time: how a black soldier in
Panama lied to you.

Read, Ken, read. Few of those that served with him backed up his version. And
others in boats with him on patrol didn't see the stuff that he "saw". Why
won't he release the remaining 100 pages of his military records, including a
*valid* discharge, not one reviews by a board of officers and signed by Jimmy
Carter two years after his discharge.

Like I said, get the 7 iron out of your eyesight and perhaps you'll be able to
see better.


Since Tim has graciously given his blessing for Richie speaking for himself, he
will...

Whether you're serious or just "tooling the liberals," you're making a fool of
yourself. Whatever else Kerry may or may not have done - and I'm pretty sure
I'd side with you as to many of his actions - he was _undisputedly_ in combat,
in a war zone, and at least some of those _under his direct command_ support
him, and go so far as to call him a hero. AFAIK, no one participating in this
silly-assed thread or even reading this was there, but also AFAIK, while there
might be some iffiness as to his puffing his record, cowardice and/or
dereliction of duty never entered into it. I have no idea if you have seen the
horror that is war, no matter how justified that war might be, but if you have,
you need to take your computer and a shovel into the yard, dig a hole, bury the
computer and burn the shovel. If you haven't, you need to shut the **** up
about this and move on.

Really, I hope this helps - really.
Richard...er, Richie...

Actually, that is certainly debatable, and probably true.
