Fishing in Michigan
 

One Saturday morning I got up early. I put on my long johns. I dressed
quietly. I got my lunch made, grabbed the dog and went to the garage to
hook up the boat to the truck and down the driveway I went. Coming out
of
the garage rain is pouring down; it is like a torrential downpour. There
is snow mixed in with the rain, and the wind is blowing 50 mph.
Minutes later, I returned to the garage. I came back into the house and
turned the TV to the weather channel. I find it's going to be bad
weather
all day long, so I put the boat back in the garage, quietly undressed
and
slipped back into bed.
There I cuddled up to my wife's back, now
with a different anticipation,
and whispered, "The weather out there is terrible."
To which she sleepily replies, "Can you believe my stupid husband is out
fishing in that crap?"

I know how you feel. I went fishing with a friend last week. While we
were fishing, he told me about the list of things that he had to
promise to do for her when he got home so that she would agree to his
fishing trip.

I told him that I didn't promise a thing. When he wouldn't believe me,
I explained that I just waited until 5:00 a.m. I rolled over in bed
and tapped my wife on the shoulder. When she woke up, I asked "Can I
go fishing or do you want to fool around?" She said "wear a sweater".

Add? This isn't a joke forum - this is rec.boats. Try alt.jokes.

A new, boating related joke might be fine here. Recycled jokes that are
a year old are just lame.

Google is your friend. Start there.

Hey, it was a joke about fishing and therefore sort of boat related and
inline with the previous post. I apologize if I offended your delicate
sensiblities.

Ignore 'Freddy Krueger'.
He's just another wanna be inspector of newsgroup standards. he should
check his own first.

I thought Freddy Krueger was his evil twin brother?

It is interesting that so many of our right-wing headbangers now see
themselves as part of a reform movement. You think it is that old-time
religion rearing its ugly head?


No doubt in my mind.
I could understand it if they really believed and lived the life they
preach. Most times it's 'do as I say, not as I do'.
aka: the Jim & Tammy Baker syndrome.

Don,
There is a special place in hell for the TV Evangelist who prey on the poor
and ill who are seeking help.

Who's doing the trolling??
I never intentionally troll...there's always enough bilge water here to
collect and discharge without looking for more.

Don,
I really didn't think you were trolling, I think you responded in the same
vein I did, it was just a comment in passing. But I am trying to stay
away from political and/or religious discussion because they do become
heated and can start another round of flame wars, which is not conducive to
the health of rec.boats.

Harry,
Do you see many boats on the bay at this time of the year? Do the
commercial fisherman boat year round?
