Not exactly a quote, but really good fishing humor for a short while,
until I can dig up some NEW fishing quotes. After 5 years, I'm about to
run out of fresh ones.
It was a hot summer's day, and Luke was in the marina fishing and having
a few beers aboard his boat, patriotically named the "Fourth of July."
He was waiting for his friend, Opie, to arrive so they could hit the
lake.. Opie was late, unfortunately, because he had to pick up his wife
from her appointment with the obstetrician.
Her examinations were cheap because the doctor, a fellow named Juan, was
Opie's cousin. Anyway, the appointment went over time, and Opie was late
getting to the marina.
Luke had been drinking all this time, and was feeling no pain. When he
saw Opie finally walking down the pier, he jumped up, staggered to the
side of the boat to wave to his friend, and nearly fell in.
Opie got there just in time to grab Luke. Thus, it was that O. B. Juan's
kin, Opie, saved Luke from falling to the dock side of the Fourth.
