Here’s what to consider when signing up for a class that promises a broad introduction to fly-fishing.

  • A maximum of four pupils per instructor is ideal
  • Classes should provide a rod, reel, fly line, and leaders. Some may offer waders, rain gear, and/or files.
  • Fly-fishing is best learned by hands-on experience, so ask how much time is spent actually practicing. Likewise, if you want to hook a fish, find out weather you’ll be fishing during classes. Some classes don’t do any; others spend up to 75 % of what time on the water.
  • The skills needed to fish lakes and streams vary considerable. If you plan to fish one type of water over another, ask if one is emphasized.
  • A good way to find a class is to ask for several referrals, preferably from students who were at the same skill level as you are now.
  • If you’re most in learning to cast well – or to read the water or figure out what’s hatching – ask how much time is spent on the particular skill.
  • Check to see if class prices include lodging and meals.
  • If you have particular needs, many shops will set up specific sessions; just ask

Her

I told her that I really do love her.

She answered with something like a smother.

That girl said that she doesn’t need my love.

Oh man, she’s all that I wanted to have!

I asked some for their brotherly advice.

They said to me to stop. They were all nice.

But I listened not and pursued my love.

And so now, pain and tears are all I have.

I learned a new lesson in this event.

-Listen to the advice of your brethren.

If only I valued their nice counsel,

I wouldn’t be crying like a damsel.

But what can I do, love’s so powerful?

But in what I did, I looked like a fool.

I disturbed that lady and looked jerky.

What am I gonna do now? Please help me!

I really want her to be my woman,

Maybe that’s part of my being human.

I want to serve my brethren, I really do!

What shall I do, shall I choose from the two?

Can’t I do both at the same time, sibling?

Please do tell me now what you are thinking!

I definitely need an advice now.

I believe that it will help me, somehow.

Technology Runs Faster

Every great innovation starts with curiosity. While some are a result of fortunate accidents, most are brought about as solution to a specific predicament or need.

Speed is the world that marks our time. Everybody is in a hurry to go somewhere, to do something, to see somebody. Industry is constantly demanding new investor that will “speed up” production, and the constant cry of the bosses to the workmen is “Speed it up!” The maker of the automobile has as his proudest boast that the newest type of car goes faster than the old models. Shoppers push and shove each other all about the counters in a hurry to get something for nothing. People play poker, go to school, shop, or office rush breathlessly to unimportant task, some of them play online roulette in the internet. At a movie, they tap their fee or wiggle their tongues or click their teeth on gum; at a dance, they swing and whirl madly.

It’s hurry-up time we are in. With out thinking, that we are expected to pass through life, but once.

Water or Coke?

WATER

  1. 75% of Americans are chronically dehydrated.
  2. In 37% of Americans, the thirst mechanism is so weak that it is mistaken for hunger.
  3. Even MILD dehydration will slow down one’s metabolism as 3%.
  4. One glass of water will shut down midnight hunger pangs for almost 100% of the dieters studied in a University of Washington study.
  5. Lack of water, the #1 trigger of daytime fatigue.

COKE

  1. In many states the highway patrol carries two gallons of Coke in the trunk to remove blood from the highway after a car accident.
  2. You can put a T-bone steak in a bowl of Coke and it will be gone in two days.
  3. To clean a toilet: Pour a can of Coca-Cola into the toilet bowl and let the “real thing” sit for one hour, then flush clean. The citric acid in Coke removes stains from vitreous china.
  4. To remove rust spots from chrome car bumpers: Rub the bumper with a umpled-up piece of Reynolds Wrap aluminum foil dipped in Coca-Cola.
  5. To clean corrosion from car battery terminals: Pour a can of Coca-Cola over the terminals to bubble away the corrosion.
