“Have You Forked Your Fish?” Written by: Dan Pendleton www.ez-money-maker.comHello Internet Friend,
It’s been a few weeks since my last article and I pray that all is well with you.
You know, I didn’t how hard it would be to lose a loved one (my mother), and how long something like this would linger on. It’s tough! But life goes on and we must rebound.
Recently while sitting in
hospital room by my mother’s bed side, my wife, both my sisters and I were talking about old times and swapping stories when my older sister, Gail, started to tell us about her and her husband’s fishing adventure and how she was able to would catch more fish than him.
As she continued, she explained to us how she was now able to bait her own hook and remove fish from hook once she caught it, without his help. She was quite proud of herself because she had never been fishing until she met Johnny, her present husband. Now, she’s an expert.
What a thrill! I knew she was a fisherman(woman) at heart.
As time passed and Gail continued with her fishing story, she finally came to a point that absolutely floored all of us so much that we thought we were going to have a massive heart attack and be admitted to hospital ourselves. We still laugh about it nearly two months later.
What’s amazing is, that sis was so serious I don’t believe she realized what she said until she said it, and way she said it.
And, without hesitation she launches out with all too important remark, “and I forked that fish’s tail.”
Trying our best to hold back tears which flowed at a rapid pace from laughter, one of us, and I don’t know which one, asked sis what devil was she talking about!
“I mean you know, that’s when you take your knife and cut that fish’s tail so you know it was you if you catch it again.” she replied.
