But uh, the point of fishing is to hang out, get blitzed, and try not to
fall in and drown.........not catch fish.......anyway, when's the last time
anyone KEPT what they caught? With all the heavy metals around here, the
fish either go back into the lake or become compost.......I wonder if
magnetic hooks would work better....

Speaking of PETA, has anyone seen the latest idiocy where PETA, after seeing
Jimmy Carter on the Tonight Show talking about fishing, wrote Jimmy Carter a
public letter saying that he should stop killing fish by fishing?
PETA makes my life easy......I disagree with everything that they stand
for!! Much like Paul Krugman (this is obscure, but some will understand!!)

That's good stuff Don!
Oh, don't let my wife see this thread. She's still fuming over her
college, the Miami University (Ohio) Redskins changing their name to
the Redhawks.
It did make all her old Redskins stuff more valuable, not that she'd ever
sell.
I'm sure PETA will at some point get angry and focus much attention
toward my school (University of Cincinnati) over their misuse and
slander of a beloved Bearcat ;^)
