Snow Fly Posted December 4, 2006 Posted December 4, 2006 Lostmywife: Noticed you live in Edwardsville IL. I live in Troy need to get together for a trip! "God gave fishermen expectancy, so they would never tire of throwing out a line"
Terry Beeson Posted December 4, 2006 Posted December 4, 2006 SIO3 and I were on our way to a great fishing hole. There was a foot bridge we had to cross on our way. In the middle of the bridge, SIO3 stopped and said all that water was making him want to pee. Well, he just went over to the side of the bridge and began to releive himself. I stepped to the other side of the bridge and began to "drain my gizzard" as well. SIO3 called over his shoulder to me, "Man, that water is COLD!" I simply replied, "Yeah, and it's DEEP TOO!" TIGHT LINES, YA'LL "There he stands, draped in more equipment than a telephone lineman, trying to outwit an organism with a brain no bigger than a breadcrumb, and getting licked in the process." - Paul O’Neil
mcp633 Posted December 4, 2006 Posted December 4, 2006 Terry, I use that everytime in a public restroom at the urinal. Always good for a laugh from someone. About 8 years ago, I did the Polar Bear Plunge at the Lake of the Ozarks for special olympics. Still haven't thawed out completely. If you don't stand behind our troops, please feel free to stand in front of them

I know what you mean Terry. I remember when I was in a wheelchair. I had been in an accident and broke both legs. Anyway I went to visit some friends and family for Sunday dinner. When I got there I wheeled up in my chair with a ham in one hand and a cake in the other and rang the door bell. Some of them are still trying to figure out how I rang the door bell. I would rather be fishin'. "Democracy is two wolves and a lamb voting on what to have for lunch. Liberty is a well-armed lamb contesting the vote." Benjamin Franklin, 1759

Wait, are any of you guys from Kansas? Yes, I'm That Guy
Terry Beeson Posted December 5, 2006 Posted December 5, 2006 Wait, are any of you guys from Kansas? (in my best southern drawl) How dare you, sir? Although the Beeson name is pretty prevelant in the "Free State"... Who owned the Long Branch Saloon in Dodge City? Who was a pretty doggone good Middle Linebacker for the Seattle Seahawks? But.... no relation. Ain't no hills in Kansas and I'm too hillbilly to be from that flat land...

LostMyWife Posted December 5, 2006 Posted December 5, 2006 ROFLMAO Finally, a Blue Catfish, something I can relate to. Yes, I'm That Guy
Terry Beeson Posted December 5, 2006 Posted December 5, 2006 Actually, a band of Kansas Jayhawkers "murdered" my great-great uncle and three other Confederate soldiers during the Civil War. It happened just south of the farm my ancestors homesteaded and I still own today. The four soldiers are buried on top of the hill in the family cemetary. Great story that I need to sit down and write one day...
