Who would of thunk it, BigFish is unhappy about something!!!!

In reality though Larry, some people suck. Of course not everyone. But a small percentage of the population that makes up for everyone else. But you can't sweat the small stuff man.

A short story here BF. Humor me and read it. I hate Chrstmas shopping more than anyone else on the planet. I hate traffic, I loath the parking lots and I generally do not enjoy being around pushy people while shopping. I actually pay my sisters to shop for me. Several Christmas' ago I went to Soloman Pond Mall to pick up a few last minute trinkets. I saw a young male in a wheelchair pushing his way through the mall shopping. He was by himself, had a few bags of goodies and I noticed a huge smile on his face. He had no use of his legs but still he was smiling.

So don't sweat the small stuff man. You have your health and you can walk. Many things in life are annoying but in the grand scheme of things, it doesn't really matter does it?

Uncle Matt....I use a similar story to shake the crap out of my head once in awhile when I am having a bad run of luck! Here is my story!

I am driving through Quincy Center one time a few years ago......I see this poor guy in a wheelchair, an electric wheelchair, and he is steering it around with his nose!

I think of that gentleman when things are going rough for me......I quickly remember I don't have nearly as bad as some!

People still suck though and I am not a huge fan of crowds!

Almost time to get our fish on!!!
