Hi guys. Very sadly there was a death in Jeff's extended family and we will be gone tomorrow and over the weekend, so I will not be blogging. Even though I never met the deceased I want to pay my respects by NOT acting like an asshole on the Internet for a few days.
Incidentally the only time I ever went fishing my friend Salvador (of
Look in Butt fame) somehow got his hook stuck in the back of his head while he was casting his line and we had to go to the emergency room. True story.
See you Monday.

Gone Fishin'
i went "fishing" with my dad once. actually, what happened was my dad did all the fishing and i threw rocks in the water, to which he yelled, "dammit, you're scarin' the fish away!" we went home empty handed.
ReplyDeletesometimes i think he wishes he had a son...
Hmm, fishing, haven't done that in a while!
ReplyDeleteI do so miss fishin'...gotta find a place worth going here in Colorado
ReplyDeleteAs soon as you get past the plastic-net-and-bucket stage fishing just loses it's al-lure.
ReplyDeleteI apologise for the terrible pun, I just couldn't help myself.
fishing punnery is just how I get my kicks I guess!
Please accept my condolences. Looking forward to your return.
ReplyDeleteMy very first fishing trip was with my two older brothers and my dad, I was seven. We were in the middle of First Damn in a canoe. When the fish bite my line my dad yelled for me to pull it up, as soon as I saw the fish wiggling I threw my pull at my dad and screamed. I was the only one to catch a fish that day.
ReplyDeleteSelfishly I'm bummed I won't have your hilarious post to get me through my work day tomorrow, but my condolences to the both of you.
ReplyDeleteWill miss your wit, but all the best.
ReplyDeleteCondolences to you and yours. Safe travels.
ReplyDeleteBe well and enjoy the time with family. Thank you for allowing us a peek into your life (and crazy mind) and makin us all laugh. Your wit and writing are wonderful gifts - thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteAw, thanks you guys. I'll miss you too. This is, like, so dramatic even though it's only a few days :)
ReplyDeleteSorry for the sad nature of your trip, and look forward to your return to the airwaves...
ReplyDeleteFish hook in the back of the head, wow. I
ReplyDeletethink I saw a piercing like that once...
condolences. Look forward to both your return
ReplyDeleteI have also had occasion to attend a funeral of someone I never met.
ReplyDeleteThis type of event can be very sad as most of these rituals tend to be,but it can put you at great risk if you crack up laughing in front of everyone.This happened to me in Mexico City,at a tv host's
wake reunion,somebody whispered a
funny comment to me,and I had to spin around, face to the wall and disguise my roaring laughter with crying and breaking down into sobs,
and to top it a lot of the relatives hugged me and told me how it was ok to come apart like that,they also felt the same way.
Talk about having yo head on the job.
ReplyDeleteSee you next week Sassy...the internets will be a drabbier place without your shits and giggles for sure...
ReplyDeletedeepest sympathies. thanks for visiting and following the crib.
ReplyDeletefishing = reading a book on a boat while my husband curses his inferior fishing tackle.
