Someone honest, that doesn't steal too much.
 

I had a terrible experience today. I had told an old joke to another fisherman who I thought was a conservative. It turned out that he was a statist and he got offended.

I'm very sensitive to these things.

I sort of wish I was more consciencious but that'll never happen. The sun will still come up tomorrow, I guess. :dontknow:

Don't worry DS,.........

My mom would say, "you have to be able to laugh at your self "

He should have laughed,...... and barbed you back,..... that's good sportsmanship.


"Laugh and the world laughs with you,.............. cry,.... and you cry alone"
 

duckshot,

A wise person told me back in my misspent youth that odds are about 50% of people will like you and the other 50% will be indifferent or won't like you. And that applies pretty much regardless of how you act.

So just be yourself and let the chips fall where they may.
 

Hey bill,.....

What's on the menu?

Thanks SanMan. I heard that before but I think I needed to hear that again.

ETA- who needs rum? It's practically Friday, practically. Let's all take a double ration of wobbly juice! :laughing7:

I am having some right now,...... I fell in with the right crowd, dark rum is my drink of choice.

Do you have "Smart & Final" stores by you?

Good prices on many things,......including rum.

Lol, Bill from Lachine, I once overheard a very wise man telling somebody else that a person's belief system dies about five minutes after they do. It's true in some ways, but there are lots of exceptions.

Best fisherman I even knew called himself "The fishing magician". Everybody in town seemed to hate the guy but me and him got along alright. He was a rotten friend, but he always stuck up for me despite my sometimes abnormal social behavior. I would say to him O.k. Jeff, let's see you pull a walleye out of your hat!", and he would reach into his bag of tricks and produce a walleye most every time! The only thing I ever resented in the last ten years was the fishing magician took the wrong combination of alchohol and pills, and his neighbor found him dead on his living room floor one day. It wasn't finding him dead so much as I mostly resented that the guy died full of resentment. Took a while for me to forgive, longer than I would have liked.

Old fishermen never die, they just smell that way. :tongue3:

The old saying is:
"All fishermen are liars.,except for you and me. But sometimes I'm not to sure about you....":laughing7:

I'm repeating a story...Bear with me if some ones heard it enough.
Jim Bowie , was not quite a hero much of his adult life. Pulled some unsavory stunts. Not unique for the era , but he was involved in things not always applauded.

Anyways , one day he got his butt whipped .
He protested to a friend who had stood by and not intervened.
The friend said ...But Jim ,you were in the wrong!
Bowie replied ,...I don't need a friend when I'm right.

You spelled "dangerous" wrong, IMO.

===========

My apology Duckshot and I went back, ( after I understood what you were referring to ), and corrected that spelling. Not sure if it was due to typing too fast or the spell checker. But it was funny how you caught my attention to that. Nicely done :notworthy:

Morning folks
 

Good morning SanMan

Last night just kept it simple took a frozen pizza out of the freezer grated up some extra cheese and threw together a side salad.

We've got a block of tofu in the fridge so we'll do something hopefully interesting with that for tonight.
