“You DO have lung cancer, fat guy.”

Posted by TFG on July 31st, 2012

That’s what my body told me on Sunday. 100+° heat really kicked my ass, giving me the light head, the dizzies, the sleepies, the strength of a new-born kitten, and generalized blurgs. And that was from just piddling around, doing nothing strenuous. It stretched into most of Monday, too. I’m not reacting well to reduced abilities, not one little bit. Acceptance is not easy. In fact, it’s the hardest part of this entire ordeal. Is that all too whiny? It feels like it. And August ain’t even here yet.

Things that would make the Founding Brothers say “Whisky Tango Foxtrot?”: USDA Catfish Inspection Office I can only hope that they are badged and armed to the teeth, with the power to arrest. We’re going to need a new building somewhere in Virginia named after the man who single-handedly fought for the proper inspection of a trash fish. An annual planning meeeting somewhere sunny & warm (& brimming with whores) to work on and extend the Office’s mission statement. Probably Certainly some billboards and teevee/radio commercials to help the citizens understand the necessity of inspecting catfish. New regulations to protect noodlers. It’s a national security issue, no question. And it’s for the children.

    I’ve been in the same heat boat as you. Thought I was coming down with something but it turns out the hot, dense air just makes it hard to breath. I’m staying indoors during this heat spell and feeling better. Thankfully, the Olympics daytime telecasts are a welcome distraction.

      I’m digging the Olympics myself, but the insipid, banal commercials & moronic talking heads mostly ruin whatever enjoyment I get out of the sports part.

    Been through enough foolish USDA crap and surveys to last a lifetime,so of course there is only one solution.All these turd-wrasslin catfish have to have traceable coded ID chips implanted in their tail fins,so they can be traced back to water source,that will employ thousands to catch,tag,test and over see proper cleaning,icing,labeling and general presentation and recipes.But wait,the fry cooks are gonna have to be inspected for any disease that can be transmitted to the general populace.Then the peanut oil has to be checked for E-Coli,and any resturant that serves this fish,has to provide all this info on the menu,so new jobs everywhere,so basically we can restart the whole country into a new golden era,over a bottom feeding trash fish:) With you guys on the heat,worked outside all my life,but can’t take it now. Hell,maybe I can get me an AC office,in the USDA?

  3. As much as I hate you, I love you more, 10-times over. You…complete me…okay, I’m ready for this to be deleted…
