For bd
« on: February 20, 2012, 11:24:39 AM »

While traveling last week I started reading a novel my wife got for me from the library. When I saw the acknowledgements page, bd immediately came to mind for some reason or other....

Here it is:
____________________

" I wrote this book with my longtime fishing partner and fellow journalist Bill Gardner, author of the musky fishing classic Time on the Water .  We have been fishing for muskies together for nearly thirty years, and it was through his intercession that, in this novel, I make musky fishing out to be a much less stupid activity than it actually is. "

_______

I will leave it to each of you to interpret as you see fit...

 ;)

Do you see the reports on this page?  Everybody and their sister caught a musky last Saturday.  I chose that day to go trout fishing.

I have no family-friendly words left for those fish.   >:(

I am finally starting to realize that these fish do not actually exist.  I'm sure it's just a coincidence that all the people who have posted pictures today of musky they are catching are also good with Photoshop.   >:(

This coming from the man who caught one on his first day to Musky fish.  :D
