First?

[Beppie]

Yes, when it causes testosterone levels to rise.

[DaveTheRed]

Wow, picture on Wyo's web site, and a first all in the same day, and that is the strangest stature ... looks kind of like the creature from the black lagoon with a fish head

[southerngirl]

that was just...ok, i guess "freaky" works...

[Beppie]

Oh, and FIRST! Haha!

[DaveTheRed]

Also I am rated as Mid-level nerd, lol.

[Beppie]

Holy moly! Haha! Four posts at the same time!

[The Dread Pirate Chris]

stupid work firewall...

From Dave's lead-in, I'm going to have to go with:
"Only if you have two hands on your rod."

[Punkin Poo]

That's not what the catfish God looks like! He's shorter, darker and has thicker lips! Last time he visited me in my room at night, he....oh...perhaps I've said too much. I don't want to anger him. Again. Not after what happened last time...

[Betsy]

Kind of an extreme reaction to one night of bad fishing...I wonder how he handles REAL disappointment?

[wench]

Why does the catfish god have huge b00bs? Wouldn't that make it a goddess?

[Beppie]

LOL! That must be how the Pyramids came about.

[Beppie]

Throws a "in reply to Besti" up there...

[Beppie]

Throws the correct spelling of "Betsy" up there as well...

[Red Green]

Keep your stick on the ice!

[crossgirl]

that would look great at my place.

[Bubbette]

"Life-sized" I've never seen a live catfish quite that big.....

[Lisa Bisa Fo Fisa]

It's kind of creative, I think. Wonder what it's made of.

[Lisa Bisa Fo Fisa]

But shouldn't it be called the "catch-fish" god?

[KCSteve]

Punkin, still buzzing about it?

[Cheesewiz]

It's time to play, "Name that pathology"

[Olo Baggins of Bywater]

Bubbette, check this out.

[Wyo Cowboy]

That's not the cat fish god, that's just my cousin, Vern.

[KOW]

I don't know if fishing causes brain malfunction, but the way it's described in one of yesterday's posts, it may cause blindness.

[Punkin Poo]

KCSteve....NOT funny.

*muttering - last time I share w/ my so-called friends*

[DaveTheRed]

Have a happy weekend y'all, See ya monday!!

[pepe]

i've always maintained that brain malfunction causes fishing... why on earth would anyone volunteer to handle cold, squishy, slimy, wet living things for recreation?

[The Dread Pirate Chris]

Punkin - you can share anything you want when you are a Supreme Nerd God(dess). If anyone makes fun of you, smite them with

um....

An an abrupt electric discharge.

[Val]

How in the heck do you cook one that big??

[wench]

on this, Val

[Suzy Q]

Catfish for dinner?

[The Dread Pirate Chris]

squishy, slimy, wet living things

It's a Friday afternoon...
Do I, as a guy of the male gender, really want to go there?

[wench]

DPC - that type of activity is usually reserved for post happy hour

[CJrun]

DPC, electrical discharges are one of my favorite fishing tools; those, dynamite, or my two-handed spey rod.

[Punkin Poo]

DPC - Will do!

*assumes discharge position*

[ScottMGS]

Yikes! on so many levels - catfish god, Mekong Cat and, especially Punkin in the electrical discharge position!

*pays more homage to the nerd queen!*

[Clean Hands]

Uh, discharge of what, Punkin? Last time I tuned in, DP Chris was talking about "squishy, slimy, wet living things."

In order to cause a disharge of one of those, you'll have to catch one first.

[Punkin Poo]

CH - I believe I HAVE discharged "wet, slimey, living things"...we called them Josh & Kacy.

[ScottMGS]

Oh, those wet, slimey, living things.

[otis wildflower]

That thing looks like a prop off of some bad Canadian horror movie.. Freeky...

[The Dread Pirate Chris]

I don't usually have any trouble at all catching one of those. Causing a discharge takes a few minutes, though.

[The Dread Pirate Chris]

So I guess I am going there.

Might as well - I can't launch hampsters right now.

[wench]

wow, DPC - the responses I can think of to that loaded statement!

[The Dread Pirate Chris]

Go for it. It's Friday...

[wench]

don't usually have any trouble at all catching one of those. Causing a discharge takes a few minutes, though
================

What wet, slimey things are you looking to catch? The kind that can be found post happy hour? And does the discharge really only take a few minutes? Some of us have higher expectation.

[The Dread Pirate Chris]

From catch to first discharge only takes a few minutes. The discharge usually continues for quite some time thereafter - several hours usually.

See F and S.

[wench]

wow...follow with a K and that's quite a satisfactory night

[The Dread Pirate Chris]

No K. P.

Occasionally Q.

[wench]

Only occasionally? Poor guy. K and P are very effective.

[The Dread Pirate Chris]

Mrs.Dread has the same injury concerns you expressed about Qing. I've never had a problem with it, though. I don't know why she is concerned - Q always leads to P.

[wench]

hasn't she ever heard of "no pain, no gain"? I wasn't expressing injury concerns - just expressing my sympathies that it's only occasionally.

[The Dread Pirate Chris]

{sigh}
I know, thanks.

[wench]

see, one of the benefits of being single - lots of adventure and "what the hell, let's just go for it" action

[Punkin Poo]

I don't really know what y'all are talking about, but I'll throw in MY two favorite letters - K Y.

[The Dread Pirate Chris]

{sigh again}

Mrs. Dread used to be one of those people...
Maybe I can convince her to modify S to be a little bit like Q. That might work.

[wench]

Poor Dread! I have lots of married friends so I hear that {used to} talk all the time. Makes me wary of the walk down the aisle. But one down side of being single is spending nights alone. I suppose sacrificing some freakiness for security might be worth it.

[The Dread Pirate Chris]

Punkin - this

I'm trying to keep Mrs. Dread at "some". I think she'd like to go to "all", but I remind her that that means no more S either.

[wench]

Oh, poor, poor Dread - she wants to sacrifice the whole adventurous alphabet? Is that what I'm reading? What's left? Just lot of "I", apparently!

[The Dread Pirate Chris]

She doesn't want to give up the whole alphabet. She's willing to keep P.

The kids will be out tonight... Maybe I can arrange a Z without the third person at the top. I think the bumps work out for that to be what I'm after. If not, we'll rearrange it so it's right.

I'll go try that now...

[wench]

NO KIDS!!!! Man - get home and work it!!!

[Glix]

Wow, picture on Wyo's web site, and a first all in the same day, and that is the strangest stature ... looks kind of like the creature from the black lagoon with a fish head

I must be losing my mind. I thought the chair was the being's legs, and the fish tail...Let's just say I thought I saw "fish head" too, but not the same kind you're talking about.

[stevie w]

Let us spey.
