With Use of deadly force for self defense on today’s syllabus entry, I think we will start class today with the 911 call.
And all the lights off.

We fished the Chandeleur Islands last week. The storm and north wind shut the bite down Friday morning but it picked up in the afternoon and we ended up with some trout and reds to 38 inches. Saturday was the most productive fishing day of my life. We had 4 slot reds, and 6 oversized around 38 inches (released) and broke off a few more just trying to horse them in instead of fighting them forever on light tackle. One large Spanish mackerel and a bluefish. And so many trout that I think I better not post the number on the internet. Could not get much going with the topwater lures, unlike last trip, but the cork and gulp combo spent more time underwater than above water. Can't wait for the next trip.

Flew in Tuesday night, Weds am Lunch was Acme vs Felix, Felix won. Acme just doesn’t take the care in shucking oysters and the last two times I’ve been there they were over cooked and had bits of shell
Weds night was one of my favorites, GW Fins. We ate all the apps, red shrimp, tempura wings (fish throats), pork belly, raw snapper. Was outstanding.
Thursday the storms had us hunkering down. Then drove to Biloxi and on the way hit the Lost Cajun in Slidell, which was excellent.
Then fished 2 days in the Chandeleur Islands.
Then drove back to NOLA this morning, ate at Stanley for breakfast. Spent the day at the WW2 museum and then had at early dinner at GW Fins and flew home.
it was a damn good week.

It’s only my second one. Other was less than a year old. I’ll probably go look for more tomorrow.I’ve caught hundreds of snakes, but never even seen a king in Texas. But when I was visiting Southern California, stumbled upon a 4 foot beauty that I caught and released. My son has one now that is about 3 and change, sweet as can be, but is a voracious predator of anything dropped in its cage. Once including a rattlesnake.

Well, it might have been the best weekend of my life. There's too much to type so I'll just copy and paste my post from FB:
"I can't truly put into works the experience of attending the Masters. Walking through the gates, seeing the emblematic scoreboard on the first fairway, the serene tee box on two, the elevation drop on six, the magnolia tree on 10 that Bubba curved his approach around to win in 2012, the pine straw that Lefty hit out of on 13 to win in 2010, and the Sunday hole location on 16 that has shaped so many wins and losses throughout the years. On top of that, I got to witness arguably the most iconic athlete since Jordan winning his 5th Masters 22 years after his first, after so many people had written him off. The atmosphere at Augusta National with Tiger in contention is indescribable. No matter where you are on the 345-acre course, you know when Tiger hit a remarkable shot as the roars echo through the pines like thunder. This weekend was one I'll never forget and one I'll be talking about until the day I die. Just bury me in this hat" :wearing Masters hat in pic:
That pretty much sums it up. I lucked into weekend passes so we saw the 3rd and final rounds. The first day we took our time, hit the gift shop on the way in, so by the time we walked out to the course it was after 9AM, so all the good chair spots were taken. We ended up setting up on the 17th tee box and then walked the course. I followed Jordan for the second nine. Spent some time in the bleachers on 12, fairway on 13, and bleachers on 15.
On Sunday, we got up earlier, and were able to get about 5th row on the 16th green with a great vantage point. They don't serve beer until 11AM on Sunday, but fortunately we had some suite passes with a full bar. Had a Tito's in hand by 8AM and walked the course. We spent a lot of time on the 2nd tee box and that might be my new favorite spot on the front nine. We were on the side with the wall and you're so close to the players that you can reach out and touch them. On the groupings with no notable players, we were literally the only patrons at the tee box. We could heard all the player-caddie and player-player convos. Got to hear them cut up, make fun of each other's drives, and drop F bombs. Definitely a different experience than on TV, and it was surreal that we were at the Masters and were the only people on a given hole. We ended up back at our chairs on 16 right after Justin Thomas' ace, so we missed both that day. Ended up watching the last 7 groups come through. The Tiger effect is real. The electricity in the air when he is on a hole is unreal. And to top it off his shot on 16 sealed the victory for him.
10/10. Would experience again.
My friends gave me shit at the spring game for saying I'd rather have a badge for the Masters than go to the National Championship game with the Horns in it.
You just don't know til you go.

I need a ruling here from the marshalls.
Wife decides to purchase a massage for me, even though I don’t want one and never had one and don’t like people touching me.
It was for like 5 days after she told me. I forget the appointment. I tell her I missed it, she gets mad at me for wasting money.

Here are some of the worst people in air travel:
I travel weekly and deal with some variant of these folks every week (although I no longer fly SWA)
Fat Zero Core Strength Guy - Uses the back of your seat as a fucking pull up bar to lever himself up out of his seat to go to the head
Fast Recline Guy - Seeking out the destruction of laptop screens every trip as he slams his seat back as fast as it can possibly go
Carrying 9000lb carry on down aisle sideways guy - Determined to shoulder check entire plane with his giant Helly Hansen bag stuffed to the gills full of shit from his Princess Cruise trip
Rush up the aisle as plane is at gate guy - doesn't ask or articulate the fact they have connection - just bum rushes as fast as they can towards front of plane.
Old person who apparently hasn't watched news in regards to airline travel rules in 15 years guy - O/U 3 times through metal detector before they get all of the shit out of their pockets - change, knives, phone etc etc etc
If you are flying Southwest
Family who boards plane last because they were stuffing their face at the airport McDonald's but has to sit together and you are flying solo so you get asked to take middle seat elsewhere for a drink coupon and maybe some karma people - Fuck these people
Fat Zero Core Strength Guy - is also the guy who when he gets in the seat, collapses in it enough to almost break the bolts anchoring the seat to the plane.
The I always sucked at Tetris guy - huge line behind him, no one in front of him as he tries to stick his carry on in the compartment every direction but the right way
the I’m in C group but I’m gonna pretend I don’t understand Southwest boarding guy - he’s self explanatory. And an asshole.
the I love salmon when I fly guy - the leftover shit you bring from home to eat should not foul the entire airplane!

Justine also has an interesting late night menu.
Thanks, it’s on my list. Would welcome a report.

So I keep seeing folks post this. "Hey everybody, just use $20 /gal gas, and you'll be good".
Meanwhile, every mexican that cuts lawns for a living fills their cans at the cheapest station in town, no matter what town you are in. ( And they gather at the coffee pots and take forever to get the cream/sugar blend just right)
Seriously, let's say gas is $3 bucks a gallon. Trufuel is about 20. So, 17 bucks extra per gallon.
How many gallons do you expect to burn over the life of a mower? 10 gallons is $ 170.00 extra for trufuel, give or take. If you burn 20 gallons, you've spent more than the price of the average new mower. I fill a 5 gal can every month or two, I suppose. Maybe I'll start keeping track of that. I'll bet I've burned over 50 gals in my weed machine. I would have spent an extra $850 on trufuel. I could have replaced the mower with a comparable new one a half-dozen times for the price differential.
Look motherfucker, we don't come to Surly for a dose of common sense. Or maths. 😉

I'm 6' and about 180 and I'm wearing a Masters medium today.
If any of you guys at the tournament could hook a brother up with some golf shirts, I'm good for it.

Did you fly into Liberia? And how did you get to the resort? The site says it's a good 2 1/2 to 3 hours from either Liberia or San Jose to the resort.
I'd be tempted to rent a car, but not sure about the quality of roads. The good thing the Southwest flight from Houston arrives at 1:00 PM , so that leaves plenty of day light. Also are taxis readily available for La Fortuna?
Flew in to San Jose. It’s it is much cheaper and same distance. To the hotel in Arenal in a van arranged by the hotel. It was a no brainer. I don’t recommending driving there. We then took another van to Tamarindo for a few days. Then flew out of Liberia. More expensive but much closer to where we ended our vacation and a better departure time.

Hey man we plowed this ground months ago, go look at the culpable mental states in chapter 6 of the Texas Penal Code. And then read chapter 19. It’s a murder case.
