Gone Fishing-Upside Down World

To say the world is an odd place' is to say it may or may not rain tomorrow There is the dilemma, for nothing about the world between birth and death is understandable As an example A young man walked into a store where I was waiting to check out hanging from both his ears were massive ear rings, the kind wore to only get attention and attention he got, from me and a couple of others the guy behind me said "those have to hurt" I just nodded the young man must have heard us so he spoke with a proud voice " pretty cool ear rings don't you think" and I replied as dry as I could " I don't know if you really wanted to be cool you would have worn eagle claw fish-hooks with live worms hanging from them" "Wow" was his reply..impressed by how out there that would have been My thought was how crazy is it that me a normal guy could be crazier than the guy wanting to be crazy then I said " maybe you should go fishing more often" with that I wanted to tell him there is a fine line between fishing and sitting on the bank holding on to a piece of string I afraid this guy is going to go through life holding on to a piece of string, never to catch a fish, it's more important to get attention than to actually catch something What an upside down world we live in 2/27/17 contest Upside Down World
