Alcohol – the great dehydrator.

Hopefully they saved some of that stuff for the fish! They they can all be pickled!

You sure that Bung is the one you should be taking advice from?

And then they both had to be treated for frost bite.

Drinking alcohol makes you feel warmer, while actually making your body lose heat more quickly.

Hic hic hooray!

Alcoholic sharing.

I don’t care what they say I won’t stay

Serves them right if they catch the f@rting Herb fish. By the way would an herb fish be OK to be eaten by vegetarians?

One thing you were right about, I sure feel warm and fuzzy now…burp

Must be physostomous. Physostomous swim bladders are directly connected to the gastrointestinal tract so that fish with these swim bladders, such as herrings, must “gulp” air to inflate their swim bladder and “burb” or “fart” air to deflate them.

We passed a group of vehicles by the river yesterday, and heard what I thought was an ice auger. This morning we found they had opened a ten by thirty foot hole, for what could only have been a polar bear dip – no baptist church in our town.

You know, that really does work, sort of. A good way to die though. Don’t try this at home.

Never underestimate the power of positive drinking.

I used to live in Cleveland. Every year some drunk fool would drive his pickup out on the ice before it was thick enough. The Coast Guard helicopter would pick him up, leave his truck, then give him a really expensive ticket for polluting the lake. They would tell him it is his responsibility come Spring to get his truck removed from the lake and that they would check up on him to make sure it was done.

You can educate ignorance, but there is no cure for stupid.

Wiz. Please. Not another BAR tab….. BLANCHE

I always wondered what the secret to ice fishing was.

Wonder how Blanche would look like to wiz if he took a couple swigs….

From Mrs. Claus: "Nu, first of the year you go on a diet !!

Happy (all 6) Holidays, Spacehoppers!!

Wow………. That’s pathetic. But also not entirely inaccurate. Alcohol does promote warmth.
