Willow Creek

Post by RAM »

Only 18 copies left! If you have memories of early days fishing with family and friends, this book is for you. Ask a freind who has read it. It is an illustrated collection of stories and essays based on my lifeftime experiences fishing, canoeing, and camping mosly on streams in Tennessee. Some of the stories are humerous, others poignant. A few far away places appear in them as well. This would make a neat gift for a friend. For ordering details contact Bob Miller-South Harpeth Publishing at:

Bob, why don't you use SpellCheck? Don't you know "humorous" doesn't have an "e"? Now the long upper arm bone does have an "e"! Bad Bob

Bantering words

John-Is that how the term "funny bone" got started? Some dunce misspelled humerus, friends laughed about it, and started calling it the "funny bone". At least I didn't misspell misspell!
Confucious is thought to have said "He who can't spell likely can't catch 70 spotted bass in one day like a guy I know in Texas can". He is also thought to have said "Man who cooks carrots and peas in same pot is unsanitary!" Bad Bob

PS Very few misspelled words in Willow Creek

Don't sweat it, Bob. Your spelling's mosly correct. And you get extra credit for "poignant."

Steve and John-I am guessing I must use the dictionary more than any other ORCA member. There is only one excuse for misspelled words...and I forgot what that was. Oh yeah! Don't forget to use spell check! Ciao to you both! (PS Steve-I cheated on poignant-I looked it up) Bad Bob

Thought: Humor your humerus by not shoveling too much humus on a humid day.
