I'd hit the sumbitch forcing you to fish there in the mouth...in the event you are the sumbitch forcing you to do something that you don't like, you might consider the advice the doctor gave the person complaining that it hurt when he jabbed himself in the gut: "don't do that anymore..." To paraphrase Pogo, you have met the source of your hypocrisy and he is you... In your recent journey down thisaway, you had a chance to fish the last "wild" river around, the Pascagoula. Did you, perchance, avail yourself of the opportunity? If not, why not? maybe that's why I always let them go... To what fate? TC, R john |

Its kinda like sex in a whore house, yeh its "sex" but you still feel dirty for years afterwards. Same as shopping in Walmart. Frank Reid |

Is the same sumbitch forcing John to fish where he doesn't like to fish forcing you to not only to go to whore houses, but have sex in them, as well as to shop at Walmart? TC, R ....for example, I don't like anything about Starbucks, so I don't go there or drink their (alleged) coffee...and if it is a choice between their (alleged) coffee or no coffee, I choose no coffee...

Texas has hundreds of places where you can "hunt" Oryx, Axis deer, Elk or anything else the can be flow in. For mere money you can be taken out in a John Deer Gator and become a real hunter. You don't even have to get your feet muddy. If you can't afford that then it's back to the deer lease to pop one of those tame deer that's been eating at the deer feeder all year. If you don't have any morals, ethics or principles about hunting you wouldn't have any about anything. |
