Dear Abby,

I have been so blessed in my life. Great parents, great wife and kids,
great job, and great education. When I finally retired, I could hardly
wait to spend time enjoying my favorite pastime -- bass fishing. I got
my own little fishing boat and tried to get my wife to join me, but she
just never liked fishing. Finally, one day at the Bait & Tackle Shop, I
got to talking to Sam the shop owner who it turned out loves bass
fishing as much as I do. We quickly became fishing buddies. As I said
the wife doesn't care about fishing; she not only refuses to join us
she always complains that I spend too much time fishing. A few weeks
ago Sam and I had the best fishing trip ever. Not only did I catch the
most beautiful bass you've ever seen, only a few minutes later Sam must
have caught his twin brother! So I took a picture of Sam holding up the
two nice bass that we caught and showed the picture to the wife hoping
that maybe she'd get interested. Instead she says she doesn't want me
to go fishing at all anymore! And she wants me to sell the boat! I
think she just doesn't like to see me enjoying myself. What would you
do? Tell the wife to forget it and continue my hobby or quit fishing
and sell the boat as she insists?

Thanks,
A fisherman

PS: I have enclosed the picture of Sam showing off the bass we caught.


Dear Fisherman get rid of that narrow minded wife.
