Great Moments in Mij Disappointment
LONDONDERRY - I put new 4lb. line on my ultra-light last night...inland trout stamp has been purchased...waders are pulled out of storage. One problem - it's pouring. So much for my first Monday solo-fishing outing. And while I wish I could be more like a jaguar, unfortunately I am more like a tabby and hate getting wet. I think I'll be going to the library today instead. Bummer.
Hold the phone - that's right - the NASCAR race was rained-out yesterday and it's on at noonish today. That's the real reason I have Mondays off - rescheduled NASCAR races! Well, now that I'm not disappointed anymore, here's the list anyway:
3.) Dodgeballs - The Frat Pack steals the Sack Pack's idea. I was gonna be a star in L. Lippy's directorial debut! "Moking" was going to enter the national vernacular.
2.) Ferrari F2004 in Madison! - Michael Schumacher's F1 Ride was here, in our sleepy little college town, and I missed it. I swear some idiot on Channel 15 said it would be around on Saturday, but turned it out was a Friday-only affair. Groups of three were even allowed to do a simulated pit-stop tire change! Sneakthief was in town, and with Gangsta we had a trio! We got to the School of Engineering event, and after some difficulty locating the most beautiful man-made creation on Earth, I decided to ask some co-ed where it was located. She gave me directions and my spirits lifted. They soon dropped as I realized she had no idea what a Formula 1 car actually was, and I ended up in a room full of four-wheel turds. At least we got to see some robot battles "in person" for the first time.
1.) Bowfin Bummer - I caught the biggest fish of my life a little over a week ago. I was fishing with a large spoon so the only things that I thought would hit those - in the waters we were in - were huge walleyes, northerns, maybe muskies! Nope - I caught a huge bowfin (dogfish). As the adrenaline wore off from a monster fight, disappointment set in. Way to survive the Eocene idiot fish - please don't bite anything on the end of my line ever again. You are gross. Five minutes later my mom caught one (not the same fish) also - strange.

Damn dude. You're too down on yourself. Shit, If I wrote an article of my disappointments it would be turned into a novel.
Focus on the positive yo (or wait, did Gangsta ban positive from this site?)
What's up Gangsta?
I've never caught a fish in my life, or gutted a deer.
Am I a man?
I've never bitten anythings brain.
Am I a jaguar?
