Hey what kind of dump is this, there is NO category for fishing...?

Out for a day long run, To fish for stripers or flounder, And have some fun, Praying to the ocean gods in this rough sea we don�t flounder� Fishing is its own Zen, Been enjoying it since ten, I don�t get out nearly enough, �Specially in the ocean when it is really rough� A true meditative practice, Alone against the sea, To be one with the ocean, Me against the fish, To catch him & return him to his domain, Never as far as I am concerned, will it make it to a dish� � ed ~ 6/16/06

Fishing is its own Zen,
Been enjoying it since ten

There was a time about all I did was fish; but I think it was just the excuse I used to get out into Nature; it truly is very Zen like.

The Saggy, Baggy Boobs Blues,

Growing up alone is not so bad...

Alone in life...

Memories I am Unable to Forget...

To wish for death...

I find it interesting that only in the wee hours of the morning is when I find myself able to write anymore... <br>

Rain, thunder & lightning, oh my...

Hey, I think I might have found a little humor...?
