SOMETHING’S FISHY
Fish – The only animal that grows to twice its size, between being caught, and being described.
Give a man a fish, and he’ll eat for a day.
Teach a man to fish, and he’ll sit in a boat all day and throw beer cans in the lake.
A Scottish fisherman was on his way home after a disappointing day, where he’d had, perhaps, a few wee shots of antifreeze. Spotting a scarecrow in a field, he shouted, “Yerr a damned liar!”
Tranquility is knowing the difference between ‘fishing,’ and ‘catching.’
Think there’s something fishy about today’s philosophy episode?? Me too!

Never throw a stone in the river, you’ll wake up the nearby fishermen – and they don’t like it. It knocks them out of their dream of the biggest trout ever!

Good stuff. Ben Awhile (one of my characters) and I have not been here in well, awhile. Following now, so it will take effort to miss a chuckle from your posts. But I’m the man for the job.

Is it me…. or is that one extremely creepy scarecrow?

That’s creepy enough to be two scarecrows. Didn’t I see him and his sister in Children Of The Corn?? 😳

I’m like Pensitivity, who wrote about baseball, although she’s never seen any. The closest I ever came to fishing was, I stood on a river dock one time. Jokes though!! Those I reel in by the dozen. 😆

I like the variation on the teaching a man to fish saying.

I think some guys fish just to get away from naggy wives. 😯 Of course, if they hadn’t spent all that money on a boat, trailer, motor and tackle, the wives might not be nagging at them. 😳

We have the old “a bad day fishing is better than a good day working” sign on our back porch.

I think many fishermen use the experience almost like meditation and connection to nature. I could never see the attraction. I achieve my quiet introspection in other ways, including all aspects of blogging. 😀
