The Sun Sets



As the sun was setting on Brussels and Bob Geldof's New World Order, I looked out across the Big Pond, hoping for a Leviathan Bass. I hoped in vain. Like the people of Sunderland, Tyneside and Basildon, the fish weren't fooled by the empty promise of the enticing lure. They saw through it and decided against the worm.

Except for one fish, who took the bait and started travelling with it. I gazed down at the water in astonishment, gave the line a gentle tug, and the fish swam off. "So you figured the fish was going to set the hook all by itself?" asked GWB. "Er, yeah," I replied, "Sometimes they do that." 


A Typical Millionaire Socialist

My intuition says that GWB wasn't too impressed with this small gem of angling wisdom, but whatever the case, he went on to catch a fish on his fly rod. Well done.


GWB's Fish

Then night fell and it was time to leave the pond and head back to the Compound. Whether Texas will "Texit" and part company with America's ruling DC overlords, is presently unclear. That the Bass are trying to escape the searing summer heat by moving to deeper waters is more certain. 

I've resolved to get in a boat and go after them.

Fish on,

LSP

Fishing cures everything.

I thought the plan was to slap all millionaire socialists in irons and let them rot in the Big House. What's this guy doing, walking about as free as a bird? With all of those phony, baloney ribbons. I suspect nobody has ever fired a shot at him in anger.

That fish you lost could indeed have been the elusive leviathan. It is toying with you, much like Moby Dick toyed with Captain Ahab. Better luck next time.

Oh, and if we see a Texit, Arizona's coming with. We're tired of the same border idiocies as you, plus we have to put up with the mass migrations from the Socialist Republic of California.

If I sail on your boat there in your lunker pond, don't call me Ishmael. First off, it's an Arab name and secondly, I don't want to see your little whaleboat pounded to matchsticks by a leaping bass because I know how large they are there.

I find it interesting how all of the Illumanati shills give themselves medals for nothing. Barack got that Nobel medal for being half negro. Hillary got some medal for being female. Not even some sort of mention in dispatches is necessary.

I've come to really enjoy it, Adrienne. Of course it's better when you're catching...

LSP said...

They may not have taken a shot at Sir Bob Geldoff, Fredd, and we have to ask, why not?

LSP said...

Euripides, I see a broad coalition of states banding together in the Texit. It'll be powerful. And next time I go down to the pond I'll see if I can't fish deeper -- there's BIG Bass there. Large Cats, too.

I promise that I'll never call you Ishmael, LL, and for sure, some of those Bass are monsters. But what was Geldof given all those medals for? For being a 3rd tier popstar? "I don't like Mondays" was his smash hit, which everyone remembers except that they don't.

Only thing I could've told you Geldof was involved in, was the "We are the world" egofest, and the Ethiopians are still living in a desert during a drought. Should've bought them bus tickets, instead of meal tickets.

I think the only state not joining in #Texit would be Utah, as they finally build their Deseret kingdom.

I remember that pop event, Mattexian. All the popstars gave all their millions to Ethiopia.
