[The Grebe]

Well, let me see? Where to start? Okay, got it...Last winter, we went on a fishing trip and upon our return, it started to snow and since snow removal is what I do in the winter, once it quit, I had to put the plow on, load the equipment, muster the tropps and hit the trail, tired or not. One of the guys did'nt show up so we were a man short and had to make up the difference.

After the fishing and the snow removal, I was shot and collapsed in a heap on the bed, where I slept long and deeply!

When I finally woke up, went into the bathroom and looked at my raggedy self in the mirror, I thought, "Oh,oh, I'm turning into something else!" Since I like to joke around, even using myself as the fall guy sometimes, I yelled to my wife..."Hey wife, commere...somethings happening, I'm changing!"

She hustles in and I turned and looked at her in a serious manner and told her I was turning into a Grebe.

Hair poking out on both sides, 3 day growth of whiskers, eyes all wild and bloodshot red, I decided I most resembled a Grebe and decided from that day, that would be my handle. I also really like to eat fish, so I guess it's appropriate?

[FishTracker]
