Like Nixon in '68

I've returned from California, tanned, rested and ready. The main difference between me and the old Wax Banana : I'm not yet prepared to run for higher office, wage war, or subvert democracy.

No, my ambitions are more modest. I aim to harass the fish of my stretch of the Mississippi River, specifically Ictalurus punctatus, or the channel catfish.

The specimen posing with the handsome fellow to the left was caught on two very dead fathead minnows. It was the first fish of '08 for the Man of Constant Leisure and therefore, in spite of its puniness, worth celebrating.

When the Man of Constant Leisure does it, that means it is not illegal.
