And here's what happened 4 hours later: When we got back to land, Buggs took a look around him and then a look straight up. "Hmmmmm... a helicopter would really be something. We'll rent when we go here next time." I agreed. Of course I realized that it would cost REALLY much... but on the other hand, Buggs ain't a youngster anymore. Another road trip in that terrain would cost him what's left of his already ancient hips. Though, this air idea brought up another problem. We didn't know the name of the place so we had no destination info to give the pilot. We couldn't "lead" him there either. Buggs has problems with flying so he would be lying with his head in a bucket... and I had been asleep this entire road trip, so I didn't know the way. "Hmmmmmmmmmmm...."
Suddenly he flew up and rushed into the bushes. I assumed that he felt the sausages building up pressure... since my own were doing the same. (Next time I will be the one in the food committee.) I left for some other bushes... far away from his. When I came back I saw him standing there with a big smile. "Look here!", he said and pointed to the ground in front of his feet. Apparently, he hadn't had a problem with expired date sausages. What he had been doing was collecting branches and stones and with this he had formed big letters on the ground. 'ECALP TERCES S'RETSEJ DNA 'SGGUB'. I asked him what the heck it was. He answered "Now we can just tell the pilot to fly southeast and we will get here by himself. This says 'BUGGS' AND JESTER'S SECRET PLACE'... backwards... so he can read it from the air." A message to the pilot was a good idea, I admit that. But I really didn't think he was a complete moron. How the heck would THIS message work? A 10-year old would see the serious need of editing. If it says to the pilot that it is a 'secret' place... then he still won't know when he see it. So I removed the word 'TERCES'... and next year we'll have no problem getting there. /Jester -----Ursprungligt meddelande----- Från: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] För DonO Skickat: den 13 oktober 2005 17:14 Till: [email protected] Ämne: Re: [VFB] QUOTE FOR THE DAY- rest of the story by Buggs Jimmy, Was that Jester Boudreaux on the trip with me? You didn't tell the rest of the story. When I caught that fish, I turned to Jester and said "This is the best spot so far, so next time we gotta start here. But how can we find this same spot next time?" Jester said "I got a way." And he leaned over the side of the boat and drawed a big 'X' on the side of the boat, saying "See, now I marked the spot." I said "Jester, you dummie! How you know we gonna git this same BOAT the next time??!!!!" Buggs ----- Original Message ----- From: Jimmy D. Moore To: [email protected] ; [EMAIL PROTECTED] A Fishy Story: Buggs and Jester go on a fishing trip. They rent all the equipment: the reels, the rods, the waders, a drift boat, the truck, and even a cabin in the woods. They spend a fortune. The first day they go fishing, but they don't catch anything. The same thing happens on the second day, and on the third day. It goes on like this until finally, on the last day of their vacation, Buggs catches a fish. As they're driving home they're really depressed, Buggs turns to Jester. and says, "Do you realize that this one lousy fish I caught cost us fifteen hundred dollars?" Jester says, "Wow! It's a good thing we didn't catch any more!"
