Something that we ALL seem to share.

Forgive me, Father, for I have sinned. I mistook your prophet Chris' word when he began his noble purpose by saying, "....... we know that without eels we stand a snowballs chance in hell of catching a trophy bass. Is there anyone who thinks they stand a legitimate chance for a trophy with jigs or plugs?.......", when in fact he clearly meant, " Certainly,as I and others have stated already plugs can also yield impressive results".... In my ignorance I compounded my sin by causing him to slander the names of those too holy to mention, and then challenging the holiest of commandments, "Thou shalt killest the mostest and biggest fish thoust can by any means that is most efficent, and displayest those fish for all to admire and give praise, soest thou might attain great fame and personal fortune and groweth bigger testicles than those other chumps, to help find thoust's #^&#^&#^&#^& as thy belly swells with the fruits of thy fortune". But thank you lord for thy mighty apostle, Chris, who has shown me the evil error of my petty purist ways and the smallness of my testicles. For pennance let me split asunder my flyrod over my wetsuit's knee, toss away to the currents my unholy wooden idols, and carry Back Beach's eel bucket all the days of my life, gaining sustance only from it's dregs once the night's work is done. And if I do, oh lord, please make this dandruff and distain (and Flap too if you don't mind) go away, so when I die I should be worthy to enter thy kingdom, Rhode Island.

Amen
