Mr. Pinto Sir, This week I celebrated my tenth year anniversary on Goanet. I joined Goanet hoping that there were going to be real Goans here. In other words, I wanted to hear fish tales longer than my own :-) Your email above is the very first reference to a fishy tale. My congratulations! Mervyn222222222222.0 PS Bosco may or may not allow this to be posted on Goanet but let me assure you that you are right and he is er, not so right. Here in Canada people do talk about the one that got away with both hands outstretched. I have pictures of the ones that did NOT get away and, with both my arms outstretched, I would not be able to give you an accurate indication of the fish size. And before you call, let me assure you Bosco, that I cannot/will not? remember where the spot or lake is...... ______________________________________________________________________ Post your free ad now! http://personals.yahoo.ca
