Too graphic for our delicate sensibilities?

Nope. David snapped this on the dock at Allen Harbor (Quonset Point, RI). I keep trying to get him to get some gear so we can at least TRY to catch a blue or striper. Yum yum yum. When we lived on Warwick Neck people used to bring us these enormous blues and striped bass, and I'd clean them and stick them into the freezer. That's as close as I've come to actually fishing. I guess it was Not a Girl Thing when I was growing up.

Not real interested in the sport, but always interested in Food.

And the choices are:

1) "Back in my day they didn't even give us anaethesia before surgery. Consider yourself lucky boy!"

2) "Wow! When I'm gutted with the new "Sharpola Serrated Classic Knife" I hardly feel a thing!"

3) "Why the study of gutted fish should be called ickthyology."

4) "He's supposed to be the best back surgeon in all of the four oceans"

5) "Mama said there'll be days like this,
There'll be days like this my Mama said
"

6) "Define minor surgery."

7) "And just what am I paying my HMO for?"

Since this is my first time playing (Sounds like a good excuse to me!) I think I'll wait til everyone else has guessed, then set up a chart.

Kinda like playing Clue.

Lynne now's your chance. No one else seems very interested in matching up the entries on this one.

I have little confidence in these guesses, but it will help Lynne with hers so:


1) Nicholmere
2) Eplovejoy
3)Hypotenuse
4)DrMom
5) MNM
6)Eplovejoy
7)Quasar
