“It amazes me how many Freepers have no idea how to hunt and fish.”
For pleasure or survival? I wish I knew how to fish for survival. But I look out my window and see people fishing in the river — because they want to. It looks SO BORING. Still, I wish I knew all the ins and outs, “just in case”.
Hunting. I would do it if I had to, to survive. But the thought of killing animals for fun is something I don’t get. My family always has hunted, and everyone I knew when I lived in Alaska did, too. Still ... not for me.
I can hunt and fish, if necessary, and I can kill and clean if needed.
But my passions lie elsewhere. The absolute joy in playing music with my best friend, with my wife running our sound system, my son on bass, is the light of my week. Always look forward to all the laughing and joking both onstage and off. Most fun I’ve ever had, and I used to do it for a living.
