Politics and Fishing

Come on now, if you are honest with yourself, are you not totally amazed at the goings on with regard to the economy. Actually I should say the "goings on" of our wonderful politicians as they try to solve what is "going on" with the economy as they attempt to determine what is actually "going on". It's a jungle out there and our almighty elected keepers of the jungle are pledging to save us if we only let them print more money.  

Spend newly minted money, print reams of dollars, and keep shoveling it out and we will soon have nary a worry. Why it's enough to make me want to forget it all and simply go fishing.

When you go fishing the only bailout you have to worry about is if your boat leaks, and the only "TARP" you need is one that covers the boat. Fannie Mae is the name of a bar maid at a local fisherman's pub, and Freddy Mac is an old time charter skipper who plays the "angles" on a boat named The Ponzi Schemer.

Catch and release is a new political jargon for "OK I forgot to pay a few taxes and you caught me, however since I am a good guy, release me so that I can run our country's money pit." There is also a brand new lure on the market called the "Pelosi" it swims to the left, is colored cash green and catches plenty of huge "suckers".

If you need some cheering up and want to take a break from the constant flow of bad news then let's go fishing. You will have an enjoyable day plus you might even do a bit of economy stimulating. So look on the bright side, give us a call and become a fishing stimulator. It is a great American thing to do.
