The 13TH day of the fourth month of the year of the OP



SCANA fishing tournament last Friday at the Pine Island Club on Lake Murray here in SC.

We had sixty boats go out into the teeth of 15 to 25 mph wind, but at least it wasn't raining. It started out cold around 5:30 AM but warmed up later in the day. All of the boats actually came back in.

The fishing was off from previous years, as a cold front had gone through earlier in the week, but everybody was enthusiastic. It seems we get more boats every year, which is a good thing.

This is not a professional tournament, but a company function at a company club. But the boats and pickups used to trailer them are certainly of professional caliber. Everybody had a great time and the largest bass was 5.7 pounds. The largest catch was five fish totalling 17.7 pounds. Most of the fishermen had the five fish limit and all the fish were returned to the water unharmed. Catch and release!

This coming week will be interesting to say the least. On Wednesday afternoon, I will be attending a Tea Party on the Capital grounds here in Columbia. First time for me doing anything like this and I firmly believe that we the people need to take our government back. Maybe these tea parties will be a first step. Then in the evening we will be going to a Flat Tax meeting to see Mike Huckabee. Hope to get a bunch of pictures at both events. Keep ya posted.

FICTION AND FACT FROM SKIP'S ALMANAC OF GARBAGE KNOWLEDGE

You know those indentations on a carpet that you get from furniture sitting there too long?

Here's how you get rid of them!

Let an ice cube melt in the indented area. After it's all melted take a fork and fluff up the carpet where the cube melted. Let it dry and they say it works. BTW, I am not to be held responsible for any of these tips I give.
