THE GREAT DEBAIT

This gentleman was standing outside a restaurant we were going to. He was holding a fish that, presumably, he caught. I asked him what he used for bait. "Plankton," he responded. I ordered a hamburger.

  8. LOL.
    And I know a young man who works on a ship in Alaska who looks exactly like your fisherman. Andy would have answered plankton too. :)

  9. That is so interesting. And you do get around. Now, you're in Aruba! Eating hamburgers.

    By the way, the next time you're in Ocala at B Squared Salvage, give me a call.

    We have a Red Lobster here.

  16. Good choice on your part, B. Squared! He looks like the kind of guy who'd tell fish tails.
