Boat Spotlight: SS Boy Was He Pissed
You might be asking yourself, "How in the hell could these two manage to boat any fish with the amount of planning it will take to screw with the rest of camp as much as they will?" I have no idea.
But they will. Cody will have the Rookie fortune working for him. We'll have to check the record books but I don't know that a rookie has ever gone the whole week without winning a fish pot. The question is, how will he deal with being so far away from his text machine. The trouble is that we won't know if he is actually homesick or if being in a boat with Larry forced him into said sickness. Time will tell I guess.
His boat partner (and dare I say, mentor) hasn't changed since the minute he started going on this trip. He will sit in his boat seat with his straw hat (and apparently now an umbrella) and drag that Erie Dearie around the river until something gets in the way. All the while making mental notes with regards to who he wishes to mess with at dinner. He will catch fish, he will make lots of mental notes, and inevitably make the rest of the camp laugh at various moments throughout the trip.
This boat lacks the focus to be a serious contender for the top of the confidence list. Larry will have a great time and because of this, Cody may be looking to make a trade by about Tuesday.
The real dilemma for me is whether or not this boat lacks the necessary focus to be above the SS Camp Director on my confidence list. I just don't see it.
Confidence List:
SS Eye to Eye
SS Camp Director
SS Boy Was He Pissed
SS Almost Heaven

I think you have the "Almost heaven"v boat way too low in the standings. I see them as my main compitition.
ReplyDeleteWell then Bernie should show up around here once in a while. In reality they are probably third but with his lack of interest, they went straight to the bottom.
ReplyDeleteBernie is killing me..the anti-social SOB!
