The subject was "noodling" While I confess I have never personally engaged in such an activity, I do remember accompanying friends who did. I always found it fascinating but never had the courage to try it. Essentially, for the benefit of those who are city dwellers and never had opportunity to try it, when you are noodling, you are after large catfish. Perhaps that is why I never tried it, I am not fond of catfish myself. Back home, these fish can grow up to 2 and 3 feet long, easily. During spawning season, they will usually find a hole or some place similar to lay eggs. Bare handed, a succesful noodler goes in with both hands reaching for the cat. Defending her young, she will usually attack. If you are successful, you will ram your fist down the throat, grab the cat's gills with the other hand, and pull it from the water, all without net or poles, etc. a true test of sport and skill. What the show did not talk about however, was the fishing I personally enjoyed as a kid. I always preferred the taste of a good smoked carp over a catfish, If you know how to prepare it right, its heavenly. And where I grew up, we had a large population of Scandinavian descendants who though of smoked carp as a delicacy. Anyways,in the spring of the year, the river would flood. And because the land was pretty flat, as it receeded, it left little recess pools behind, and usually tons of huge, juicy carp were left trapped. At night time, my brother and I donned our waders and a couple of very large gunnysacks. One could use a net, but the method we preferred was called "gilling." You Wade out into the pool, when the time is right, you reach down, slip the fingers into the gill, and then grab! Stuff the carp in your sack. You bring them all back home, get daddy to fire up the smoke house, and 2 or 3 days later, you're eatin good !!! If you're really lucky you can manage to catch a few bull frogs, and there is nothing better than smoked carp and frog's legs served up with a little bit of grits or corn bread:) try it sometime! The war department is a fond collector of Thomas Kinkade memorabalia, or whatever. She has graced our home with many such things. and when she saw this, she fell in love and had to have it.

She said, "What do you call it if one woman looks out a window?" Charlotte said, "Singular." The teacher said, "That's right Charlotte.

"The doctors told me to quit eating red meat," Joe said, "Well, did you quit," asked Jack. Joe replied, "Sure did. You think I'm a dummy or something? I haven't had a drop of ketchup on my hamburgers since!" ____________ It was entertainment night at the Senior Center . John the hypnotist exclaimed, ' I'm here to put you into a trance. I intend to hypnotize each and every member of the audience.' The excitement was almost electric as John withdrew a beautiful antique pocket watch from his coat. 'I want you each to keep your eye on this antique watch. It's a very special watch. It's been in my family for six generations. back and forth while quietly chanting 'Watch the watch, watch the watch, and watch the watch...' The crowd became mesmerized as the watch swayed back and forth, light gleaming off its polished surface. Hundreds of pairs of eyes followed the swaying watch, until, suddenly, it slipped from John the hypnotist's fingers and fell to the floor, breaking into a hundred pieces.'SHIT! up the Senior Center! ____________ An old widow and widower named Mary and Steve get married.
