Only One Boat Remaining !!!
Well two of the boats are gone...One still remains...
Matt and Bill gimme a call if you are still interested...
Ronnie, you are a friggin wiseass...An opportunistic one at that, coming into my benign, friendly little thread and starting that spillover shit...lol
You know as a quick sidebar to the business of this thread, I want to say that I have refused to even look at that thread mentioned earlier just based on the title alone...And now it's 300+ posts deep, and you know what, I don't give a shit...I don't know of any sound minded grown man that has ever had his mind completely changed by the words of another man with an opposing view...Oh boy, I can feel my blood clotting as I write these words...There goes the cardiac artery...V-fib... "CLEAR"
I'm back from the lighted tunnel once again as I managed to escape death once more by staying calm and without undo fishing stress...
How do I rationalize this these days...The way I figure it, I am 39 y/o...So I guess it would be safe to say that I have already lived about 1/3 to 1/2 of my total life already...Now, at the very least, conservatively speaking, I have slept 8 hours a day...That's 13 fucking years lost, shaved right off the top like a foreskin at a briss...Figure another 10 years wasted showering, eating, driving, shitting, wiping, and talking to braindead aqcuaintences and in-laws and all that other bullshit...Thats now about 23 years of my life almost completely and involuntarily given away...Subtract now all the hours I worked, starting from age 12 afterschool and thru HS and until now...You could arguably subtract study time in college, although I believe that was time somewhat well spent...So, do the math... I'm now down to about, I don't know, 15 - 18 years from a possible 39 years of actually doing what I want with my life...
Now, lets double that for the upcoming second half of my life, again conservatively, because only god knows what my golden years will be like...Those years could be semi-productive, semi-rewarding, but they could also be worthless or somewhere on the spectrum in between...Worst case, I could end up just a lonely old man wearing a pair of Depends with suspenders, standing in a dark cat infested room of a state nursing home, aside some fat Jamaican nurse who I'm calling "Mama" while she wipes my hairy wrinkled ass and feeds my toothless face with puree'ed vegetables...
So you see, when you put your life in the form of a tangible currency like that, I feel that I dont really want to waste any more precious time arguing with people whose minds I couldn't have changed in the first place...I'm not getting paid to educate anyone, so let them learn on their own...Ooops another aneurysm... "CLEAR"
So, leave all that shit alone...
I think Pat X said it best, and I'm not shining his ass either...But, he said, "Don't give this fish too much credit...Its just a fish"......And he said, Were all just a bunch of hacks...Well Pat, I couldn't agree more...We are...I don't know where the cutoff is for expertise and wisdom, but as far as experience, at least in what has been expressed in WRITING here and on so many other sites I visit, I have yet to be impressed with some vast wisdom of any single angler...So lighten up, all of you, and put things in perspective...
The reason I migrated to this site in the first place was to escape the narrowmindedness of my tight little circle of fishing friends, who in reality only wanted to bang jigs at the shores until the end of May when the pickings were easy...And then, they would wait for me to call them with the lake, the pattern, the time, the lure, the color and the "when the next peak day" would be...Well you know what I told my friends, Go F*@k Yourselves...All up inside your a$$ and mouth......
Fishing shouldn't be political...One shouldn't have to strain himself to fish...And I don't mean political in the traditional Republican/Democratic sense of the word...But it shouldn't be socially political either, and it shouldn't require the strained efforts that we often have to exert just to have some fun...So thats why I am in celibacy with respect to fornicating in one of these arguments that we so easily manufacture, ever again...And FYI, tournament fisherman are recreational fisherman...Do they fish because they actually dont enjoy it ?...
Anyway, even though I didn't read the thread, I swear, I bet there is some relativity and truth in the map I have drawn here in my little benign thread about boats for sale...
So, back to where I started...
ONE BOAT IS STILL REMAINING FOR SALE !!!
MATT AND BILL>>>CALL ME AS NEEDED
