Saying corn twice is redundant and a sign of old age.
 
I would like to go to the lake today and ride around in my boat. I don't have a boat but I would like to. Now, I don't want to have to maintain a boat, or store a boat, or pull a boat with the truck I don't have. I don't want to have to fool around with putting my boat in and taking it out of the water. I just want a boat.
Some of the most fun I have ever had in my life was renting a houseboat down at Cumberland with 2 of our favorite couples and all of the children. Fishing, grilling steaks, making breakfast and all of that fun stuff.
 
Where were you in '62 (American Graffiti). Well I was 2 so I don't remember.

My biggest and best memory from 62, I was 2 as well, is that was the year I was allowed to sit in the bedroom with my father and listen to Cawood call the Cats. Mom made him let me come in there because I would sit by the door and listen. She took me off to the side and told me not to ask questions and just listen. Dad took his Cats serious.
 
Did not get to go fishing yesterday but, gonna make it today. 4:30am 65* here in Elgin OK. One cup of coffee then, out the door.

When I rolled out of bed, wife woke up and ask, "Where are you going?" I said "Fishing" she ask "This early?" I said "Go back to sleep, you are not thinking clearly". Now she 's thinking like me in my normal state. Can't have that. It's hot most of the day and I must get out during the cool part.

  • Hope you catch fish, Warrior.
  • Carry on.

That's got Paducah summed up. 19th Hole. FCC.
 
24.4444° C here, 95% humidity and light clouds. It looks like it could be sticky again today.

I was a Soph in High School in the spring of 1962. I was in love with Ina Ruth. My sister was in college and it was the first year in the house without her. I could not drive until mid-summer. I was deep into music, both rock and country.

Don my father-in-law worked at the atomic facility for two years.

You all have a great Sunday and I hope that WarriorCat gets a mess of fish.
