Fish Story

Here is some email I got forwarded that reminded me of the holiday cheer I should be feeling rather than the papers I am writing.

A Fishy Story........



A guy who lives at Lake Conroe

(50 miles north of Houston ) saw a ball bouncing

around kind of strange in the lake and went to

investigate.

It turned out to be a flathead catfish that had

apparently tried to swallow a basketball which

became stuck in its mouth!!

The fish was totally exhausted from trying to

dive, but unable to, because the ball would

always bring him back up to the surface.

The guy tried numerous times to get the ball out,

but was unsuccessful. He finally had his wife cut

the ball in order to deflate it and release the hungry

catfish.

You probably wouldn't have believed this,

if you hadn't seen the following pictures:

  1. Tomas, this is the kind of fish story I love. Especially the way you finish... "Be kinder than necessary because everyone bites off more than they can chew sometimes in life."
    You made me laugh, and remember one of my highest values, all at once. Thanks. Have a great holiday.
