The
slimey protective coating might play a crucial role in shielding
sea "run" trout from a gauntlet of barbless hooks,
sea lamphreys and accelerate the healing from the near misses
of hungry blue herons, with beaks not as sharp as they used
to be....but just like Charlie don't surf...trout don't run...they
swim. Runners have slimey protective coatings too, after a few
hard laps... but that's where it ends, baby...If trout ran...they
would understand that pain is just a state of mind...they would
not need a bunch of tree huggers to sympathize with their plight...they
could mate in any stream, no matter how hot or clear cut it
was...and they certainly would not need anyone to barge their
sorry asses around anything...see you Thursday, 5:30...The Rage
Addendum:
...a typical urinalysis of a 10kTruth.com disciple might reveal
traces of chicken feathers, some wolf bane, Power Bait (chartreuse
with sparkles make the Walleye go nuts out here), chain oil,
diesel and fertilizer...nothing the IAAF would get too excited
about. Most of our sponsored atheletes wear surgical gloves
when baiting client hooks on the Columbia, as any good Walleye
worthy of taking up space in our livewells can usually smell
a blue collar runner right through even the stinkiest batch
of Power Bait. - The Rage, 1/13/04
