I just found and bought Hunting & Fishing From A to ZERN, a treaure trove of the best and funniest of Ed's writings. So, bear with me, for the QFTD for the next week or so will come from this great old book. I'm a Zern fan and I know that many of you are. Those who've never read ZERN - You're in for a treat.

" A recent survey showed that roughly two-thirds of all fishermen never eat fish. This should surprise nobody. Fish is brain food. People who eat fish have large,
well-developed brains. People with large well-developed brains don't fish. It's that simple. The question a fisherman faces, then is how to get rid of the fish he has caught."
