As long as I don't have any family members passing away this year, I'll be there.

You guys can't fool me. You aren't going fishing. You are going nautical beer-drinking.

Hence the lack of fish removed from the gulf during last years oceanic excursion.

You're right, but more likely beer drinking and fish shooting.

Sean,
Okay, that's kind of a fun tune. Fun concept piece and overdone on purpose.

T,
I don't have a clue what the f$^& you are listening to. Singer girl with silver pants needs to quit wearing her shades in the tanning booth. Skinny dude "singer" jumps on me in the club and I'm body slamming his a$$. Really starting to wonder about the "club scene" you were a part of back in the day.
