I guess they don' t subscribe to this method in Texas. Andy: Here in the great unwashed Interior West, we subscribe to the shoot, shovel and shut up method of dealing with situations like that.

Darth, I mean Dick, kinda lost the company of his hunting buddies after a mishap involving booze and birds a year or so ago. He hasn't actually injured any of fishing buddies to my knowledge. andy Tom,

I thought it would be hard to pen what I really wanted to say, but maybe all these years old I am now are paying off. Here's my contribution: Dear Ms. Comar: It appears a bit queer to invite VP Cheney to be a Guest of Honor at your spring meeting. While yes, he does fly fish, and does quite a bit from what I hear from friends down in Jackson Hole, his nefarious activities in facilitating exploitation of natural resources in the east and west, seem to greatly overshadow his contribution to the fly-fishing/natural resources world. If you feel that he has contributed mightily to the sport of fly-fishing and supports conservation of our natural resources and therefore deserves to be a Guest of Honor, please detail his efforts so that we may all be aware of them. Thank you. TC: Thanks for the outrage and e-mail address. I thought it would be hard to pen what I really wanted to say, but maybe all these years old I am now are paying off. Here’s my contribution:

Still, since both of your comments failed to go through, let's go to Plan B: Ms. Comar's address is: ccomar@amff.com Thanks for the effort! I'll update the post now.
