Default What is roff good for?

Not in any particular order:

Penns Creek
Wally smacking me in the back of the head to improve my back cast
Brookies in the Shenandoah with Wayne
The Pirate, Petah and their beautimous brides on the Rapid
A warm bed and a guide for a weekend
Shared joy and shared pain
A wonderful job
Sights that my therapist (if I had one) would not believe
Wolfie in his bear baiting suit
The other side of the story
Wonderful flies
Place names such as Canukistan, North Cakalaky, Taxachusetts
The Millheim and lobster night
A warm welcome to civilian life
An interesting bit in my security clearance paperwork

I wouldn't have considered North Carolina a fly fishing
destination before Wayno insisted on having a 'Clave there
and showed me how to fish in streams you could straddle.

I'd never have traveled to Michigan to fish for Great Lakes
steelhead if I hadn't been enthralled by Petah's enthusiasm
on roff, not to mention his willingness to drive down and
split the cost of the guide.

Uh, but other than that it's an enormous waste of time. ;-)

But you never mentioned that gawd awful "coffee" we acquired from that
whatever it was place. That *has* to rate as a ROFF negative.

or Frank shouting, "What?" from WAY too far and in the wrong direction from
where he was making all the noise for which I was taking his and the Lord's
names in vain


How come that always happens. My name, and then the Lord's. Been going on
since high school. "Frank? Oh God." Sorry, I didn't mean to interupt and
bruin your good story...
