Ten years ago

Ten years ago I got a call from Joe Martins, 7-8 or so in the morning, I had just fallen asleep after fishing all night.

Ten years has been a long time, Miss Johnny, as I miss Joe.

Maybe Joe is playing the Sax tonight while Johnny is having a Blueberry Blonde toasting the Northern Alliance at some heavenly Coddington's

Miss John all the time. Great friend and one of the funniest bastards I ever met.

No boat, back in the suds.

RIP John

The United States Constitution does not exist to grant you rights; those rights are inherent within you. Rather it exists to frame a limited government so that those natural rights can be exercised freely.

1984 was a warning, not a guidebook!

It's time more people spoke up with the truth. Every time we let a leftist lie go uncorrected, the commies get stronger.

Was fishing one of the breaches Thursday night and thought of how he took me and a buddy , total noobs on how to fish the area, in hand and showed us how to fish and catch there, maybe 15-16 years ago. Met him and his son many times at night in the next years, always fun to fish with and learn from.

When I put on my copy of a white Habs needle the other night, it got slammed first drift.
Thanks John.
