| Tommy and I came in to the shore line to retrieve a rock for each of us to take home. It is interesting to see what the bottom looks like and think about why fish would be here. This is the same area a few years ago I casted a floater and caught a 37' musky. Three reasons fish would be here at times is that it is right around a point that leads to deep water, the rocks are used by some species like walleyes for spawning, and the rocks provide cover for small fish. |

| I always think about how long these rocks have been here. When the Cisco river was dammed during the thirties these rocks were here. When we first came to Arrow Lodge in 1972, they were here. All the years we have been fishing here these rocks were here. Now one of them will be in my China cabinet for the rest of my life. They are good mementos. |

ReplyDeleteThe Lord's Prayer
Are not allowed in most
Public schools anymore
Because the word 'God' is mentioned.....
A kid in Arizona wrote the attached
NEW School prayer:
"New Pledge of Allegiance"
Now I sit me down in school
Where praying is against the rule
For this great nation under God
Finds mention of Him very odd.
If scripture now the class recites,
It violates the Bill of Rights.
And anytime my head I bow
Becomes a Federal matter now.
Our hair can be purple, orange or green,
That's no offense; it's a freedom scene..
The law is specific, the law is precise.
Prayers spoken aloud are a serious vice.
For praying in a public hall
Might offend someone with no faith at all..
In silence alone we must meditate,
God's name is prohibited by the state.
We're allowed to cuss and dress like freaks,
And pierce our noses, tongues and cheeks...
They've outlawed guns, but FIRST the Bible.
To quote the Good Book makes me liable.
We can elect a pregnant Senior Queen,
And the 'unwed daddy,' our Senior King.
It's 'inappropriate' to teach right from wrong,
We're taught that such 'judgments' do not belong..
We can get our condoms and birth controls,
Study witchcraft, vampires and totem poles...
But the Ten Commandments are not allowed,
No word of God must reach this crowd.
It's scary here I must confess,
When chaos reigns the school's a mess.
So, Lord, this silent plea I make:
Should I be shot; My soul please take!
Amen
