And I'll finish it too.

I saw a message the other day that this guy had the most awful news. His wife was allergic to their dog so he was going to have to rehome her. Her name was Janet and she was 42.

Ok I take it back. Go fishing and stay fishing.

I'll get you for that someday.

It's a good sign when you decide to go ahead and have leftover beans and cornbread for breakfast.

Go home and stay home.

And every bluegill/sunfish that ever lived. In a river or a pond or a lake.

Amen. Them and tailrace trout. Predictable if you even halfway know what you are doing.

Regarding BSL and guides: Jackie Dew = Jackie Don't. Trust me on that one.

Hybrids are the same way. On or off. No in between. Great fishing or total frustration wondering what's wrong. And what's wrong is wrong day in the wrong place.

Ham and beans with cornbread again. Just love that simple tasty hearty combo on a nasty late winter Sunday. I always cook an onion, a good big handful of celery and same with carrots with the beans after they are mostly done. Also there's three or four bay leaves in the soup as it cooks all that delicious flavor from that smoked hock into the beans. The cornbread is nothing more than Jiffy - the gold standard for cornbread if you ask me - with something often added for more flavor - candied jalapenos are a favorite, but today it will be the last of a cherry berry jalapeno compote we brought back from Michigan. I get a cast iron skillet good and hot, pour the batter into it, make a ring of the compote in the batter and then pop it in the oven. The hot skillet makes for a great crispy crust on the bottom. As I've said before about this meal, poor folks has got poor ways. But don't feel too sorry for me, I can handle it.

Fish don't have the brains to have feelings like panic or fear.

Fresh creamed peas with pearl onions are one of those things the angels have for dinner when they've done something particularly pleasing to the one they serve.

It's something they have to do - NFL requires it. I get not liking losing. I don't get acting like a whipped kid in front of the world.

Nope, it wasn't sweet, didn't have the additional tomatoes and the sausage was loose. Just real simple three ingredients and it was very good.

What a great presser. An amazing physical specimen who is no dummy with the mental maturity of a 12 year old. I'm surprised he wasn't coached up better for that. Rivera gets some of the credit for this one for not prepping him better for what everyone knew was coming.

Easily. Carolina won the game everywhere except on the scoreboard. Don't see how anyone who watched the whole game could call it boring. Denver defense really did win. Denver was ONE for seventeen on third down conversions and is the first Super Bowl winner ever with under 200 yards total offense.

I won a fitted KC Chiefs on-field hat, six pullets and $3.25 cold hard cash. #winning! Loved every minute of that game too. Just smothering defense. Which is actually what won me the pullets. I had the under on 47! Not even close, could not believe I got that.

Tonight it's eggplant parm ala Rick. Which means I add a slice of hard salami on every piece of eggplant. Side of pasta and some olive salad from the KC City Market Italian Deli, can't remember their name. But the place smells like it's supposed to.

We were at a party that was Mexican theme pot luck. Three kinds of guac, taco bar with all and I mean all of the fixings, multi salsas, an enchilada casserole, multi types of layered dips, a taco salad with homemade catalina dressing, taco won-ton cups, wings, a potato casserole that was way good, another cold dish that had chicken, some yellowish wonderful tasting dressing and tortilla chips in it - and the sleeper winner for the day - kraut, a can of rotel and sausage, in the crockpot. Way way better than it sounds!

If stupid is still a high compliment, those things are idiotic.

You have the memory of an elephant.

What are those books for? They don't look like the kind that have many pictures.

Nice hat Ham.

85 pound blue from the Missouri River. On a throw line. Several spoonbill close to that.
