Johnny and Parker,

That's all well and good, but mine's a little simpler...

Reach in cooler, pull out beer, twist off top with teeth, spit out top, drink beer.

Repeat as necessary.



Fish on...

Ah, it's getting to be that time of year. Cool it on the Porter and bust out the Corona. Life on Whidbey is good. If you havn't been here in a while, it's all white sand and palm trees now!
