Jimmy,  I am unable to read today's Quote, not sure if it's my computer or what, but the type is unreadable. Could you possibly send it in a different type?   Thanks Jim Burbank    "Troutman"   ----- Original Message ----- From: Jimmy D.

Jimmy The fisherman has a harmless, preoccupied look; he is a kind of vagrant, that nothing fears. He blends himself with the trees and the shadows. All his approaches are gentle and indirect. He times himself to the meandering, soliloquizing stream; he addresses himself to it as a lover to his mistress; he woos it and stays with it till he knows its hidden secrets. Where it deepens his purpose deepens; where it is shallow he is indifferent. He knows how to interpret its every glance and dimple; its beauty haunts him for days. - John Burroughs, 1886 -- Jimmy D.
