OK mabe I'm the bigmouth here but it's done with permission This is a copy of a conversation between me and my wife (Elaine) and my fishing partner of 20+ years. He told us he was going to take his 6 yr old grand daughter bass fishing last sunday. We were out of town and I could hardy wait to hear about the fishing trip: <br />As follows:<br /><br />Hey Keith<br />How did your fishing trip go with Elana?<br />TTYL Link<br />-------------------------------------------------- <br /> <br />Awful caught about six little bass and Elana caught two little bass. But we had fun until she put a hook in my ear about 7:30 pm I could not get it out because it was a new wedding ring that I bought for Elana and because I wanted her to catch some fish I didn't make it barbless. I told her two or three times to cast to the side of the boat. But that time she casted to the front and nailed me in the ear. So any way I went home and unloaded the boat and all the fishing gear and then went to Madigan to the urgent care clinic and had the hook cut off on the back side and then pulled the pointy end through the front side of my ear. Surprised that it didn't hurt very much. Got home about 11:40 pm. Also had to get a tetnis shot and they put me on three days of antibiotics.<br />Even with all this I still was glade that Elana and I had the time together.<br />TTYL<br />Keith<br />--------------------------------------------------<br /> <br />Hehe too funny Keith<br />Elaine said Oh, a cheap way to pierce your ear! She wants to know if your going to want to borrow some of her ear rings now <br />Thanks for the good laugh pard! May we have plenty more less earatating. Yea I narked on ya! Sent a copy of this to Jim and Ed! I'm thinking of posting this at IBoats but I'm not sure if it should be in the fishing or stupid human tricks board! Guess I'll let the moderaters worry about that!<br />TTYL<br />Link
