Well holy crap, here I were all the ways across the lake an' I starts sink'n. What the hell??? "bubba boat" has sprung a leak. Since I were sink'n, I figger it might ba a good idea to have a life jacket on....Billy Bob ain't too good a swimm'n feller. Got one arm in that thing and "look out Billy Bob, ya go'n in the water if'n ya keep that stuff up". So's here I am, sit'n in a sink'n boat, can't get into the life jacket on and shore is way to hell over there. So's I hangs one leg over the still inflated tube what make "bubba boat" float, put's that hunnert horsepower troll'n motor in high gear and heads home. Phhhhwwww!!!, just make it back....never spill a drop my coffee. That's what was important ya know.
Took all my stuff out an' throws that boat slap up on a picnic table where I commence to dismantle it......pull out that leak'n tube. Then I hauls all that stuff back to camp....damn I had a lot of junk in "bubba boat".....go get the car. Leak find'n time, but I ain't got no leak fix'n stuff when I do find it. Look like the "bubba boat" is dead.
Oh, did I mention I caught me up one some kind of big ol' "lunker" fish.... kinda like what old Barney caught? Only mine was a tad bigger. No, the fish did not try to sink my boat with all them big ol' sharp fins and stuff. Never let him get anywheres close to it. Anyhows, he was on the other side where there weren't no leak. It's a mystery to me.
Ok....got things to do. Be back laters with details.
Yup, there it are. From where I stand,'n, it look kinda like somebody been smok'n in a blow up boat. Further investigation is in order. Now as I recall.... when I were fight'n that big ol' lunker fish, I had a smoke hang'n out my lips. I musta got all excitis and drop some ashes and fire inside the boat. Next time I'll take me an ashtray along with me. I wonder if duck tape will fix that leak? It fix everything else. Damn, cigarettes sure can get expensive.
Dang BB, if it were not for the tinge of brown you would think that Dracula or a big old snake took a bite of it. Glad you got back OK and don't forget cigerettes can be hazerdous to your health and well being in more ways than one.
ReplyDeleteYou think I don't know that Dizzy.....just look what smok'n did to "bubba boat"...deflated one lung.
ReplyDeleteBest laugh all day, glad you made it back safe. Maybe you should tow a spare behind for such emergencies.
ReplyDeleteHey Dad, try a canoe next time, that doesn't take air.
ReplyDeleteFirst off I am glad you got back to shore dry and in one piece.
ReplyDeleteIf you "must" smoke do it while on firm land. Indeed cigarettes can be expensive in more ways than one.
