Good morning, Well, I took one of my sons out fishing yesterday out in the gulf off St. Marks Fl. We got about a mile out and started working the flats, after catching a couple of trout we were going to move to another location, and as luck would have it, the damn thing wouldn't start for shit. I tryed and tryed and the motor just kept turning over but would not fire off, I kept trying to the point I though I was going to kill the batteries. fortainitly it was an incomming tide so we were drifting inward, we continued to fish the whole time, Every 30 minutes or so I would try starting her again, with the same results. Finely we drifted up to an osyter bar, I was iooking at the motor while I had my boy turn the motor over, There is a long rod in there that looks like part of the linkege, anyway I started pulling on that while the motor was spinning and BOOM, it fired right up. I guess it was part of the choke or something. Anyway we continued to fish the rest of the day with no more problems. WE ended up with a full live well and quite a story for the wifey. I beleive the boat was a rusted out ugly thing at one time, because where the chrome railings meet the fiberglass it was all rusted, I got all the rust off using meireatic acid. Anyway I had already bought it, so I will make the best of it!!!! And like a dummie, No I didn't take a boat mechanic with me in the begeinning. But I must say the thing runs great when its running ! Anybody wanta go fishin ???

I was about 3 hours into my ride home yesterday and decided to stop and get something to drink, stopped in this little country store, went in got a bottle of water and got in line, there were these 2 farmers standing there talking, one was dickies from head to toe the other was a big man, cut off pants, old T-shirt looked about 55 or so and was sweat from head to toe, they talked about tracters, the weather and so on, the lady was making a sandwich for one of them and for once I wasn't in a hurry, it felt good to be standing and the conversation I was listening to was rather soothing, very simple, they talked about the farm up the road that had purchased a tracter with AC!, how the rain had helped so much then the lady approached the counter with the mans sandwich, you could tell she knew both of the men well, they talked a bit the big man thanked her for the sandwich, reached in his pocket and paid for it with food stamps,,,,,,,,,,, now this has stuck in my head ever since, is this what this country has come to?? you here it on the news, read it in the papers but when its standing there in front of you, well it grabbed me right by the neck, I felt embarrassed to be standing there with money to pay for my water, you could tell by the look of this man that he had worked hard all his life, hell he was probably born into it, I don't know, it just bothered me.

I was in a store once with an older gentleman dressed in coveralls wearing a beat up "John Deere" hat. I figured he was the type that worked the land but I didn't ask. When he opened his wallet a pictued fell out face up on the floor. I noticed it was a picture of a pig and couldn't help but be curious. When asked about carrying a picture of a pig he replied, "that's a damn fine pig there, actually he's a hero!" A hero? I asked, how?
He then told me that once his farmhouse caught fire in the middle of the night and the pig came to his bedroom window bleating as loud as he could waking him and his wife therefore saving their lives. I looked closer at the picture and noticed the pig only had three legs and asked him if the pig lost the other leg in the fire. He said 'Oh heavens no, it's just a damn fine pig like that you don't eat all at once!" Just a little quip from the light side....
