Mumble Chatter was strong throughout the workout. Lots of talk about things that sting (specifically ocean wildlife/at the beach), how some Dads may alter their beach/pool attire based on that of their daughters (I’ll leave it at that), and Hamhock Fish… lots & lots about Hamhock Fish! Should’ve shown to know… but to share some insight:
1. If your Daughter insists on questionably appropriate body coverage, one indirect method to encourage said Daughter to reconsider could be to “out-do” her original choice.
a. i.e.: if the shorts are too short – Dad grabs a pair of old jeans, makes some quick alterations with a pair of scissors and VOILA! Dad is now showing off more bottom-cheek than Daughter… and most likely hairy bottom cheek.
2. Hamhock Fish – this was a new one to most of us, with credit to Change Order for enlightening us. There seems to be a trend in Women’s swimwear making a comeback – the Thong. While there are places where this is better presented than others (British Virgin Islands = GOOD, local community pool = varies wildly depending on those in attendance), there’s a valid argument that the view of a thong-clad derriere resembles that of two inverted ham hocks arranges side-by-side.
a. Conclusion: Hamhock Fishing could be a great activity or, perhaps, not so much. I suppose I’ll conclude by saying, “to those who fish, may your lines always be tight!”
b. OK, maybe a few more:
i. “The charm of fishing is that it is the pursuit of what is elusive but attainable, a perpetual series of occasions of hope.”
ii. “Be patient and calm, for no one can catch a fish in anger.”
iii. “He who wants to catch fish must not mind getting wet.”
Thanks, Dojo, for the opportunity to lead this fine AO this morning!
