Way cool El Carpo

Love your work! ;D

We came, we saw, we.... ran away and went fishing!


Reminds me of a goon show quote and personal motto

" There we were 10,000 against two so what do you think we did?



We shot both of them"

[el_carpo]

LOL! I love that 10000 vs. 2 quote! It reminds me of perch fishing at Navy Pier in Chicago. ;D Shoulder to shoulder as far as the eyes can see all going after a few fish. Sorry, I have perch on the brain. They haven't come in yet. Should be any day now. Fingers crossed.

Use my trick if your fishing area is crowded just put on a tiny hook and small piece of bait and catch the tiniest fish you can then leap about wildly yelling at the top of your voice "Die fishy die" and other such comments while laughing wildly, stabbing and jumping up and down on the poor fish. You will soon find people move away from you quickly and quietly with as little fuss as possible. Then just repeat the act if necessary to impress newcomers. :-)

The 10,000 to 2 is from the goon show for full effect it should be repeated ad nausium at every opportunity.

It was the battle cry of our Air Force unit, along with "Run away, Run Away" in the manner of the cowardly knights of Monty Pythons "Holy Grail"
