the joys of night fishing

[blackcloud27]

bet you guys cant quess what i did tonight. yep i went night fishing. with a name like blackcloud what could possibly go wrong.. had one line out with a bobber and crawler. went to the other end of dock and tried fly fishing for panfish. you cant believe how bats are attacted to flies glad i didnt hook one. put fly rod away and started casting and left bobber pole out. ( 2poles are legal in iowa.) buddy says hey look at the muskrat swimming at your lighted bobber. looked like jaws swimming on top on a mission. rat gets tangled in line. i set the pole i was casting with down on other side of dock. rat swims under dock and tangles that line also. rat shakes free. but both lines are tangled under the dock.. what a mess. why me

Thank your stars you didn't encounter Swamp Thing, last seen in 1982, chasing Adrienne Barbeau, who is virtually helpless.


Amazon.com
Horror vet Wes Craven wrote and directed this campy swamp romp adapted from the DC Comic of the same name. Adrienne Barbeau stars as cleavangelically blessed government agent Alice Cable, sent to the bayou to guard the brilliant Dr. Alec Holland. Holland is using recombinant DNA to create "a plant with an animal's aggressive power for survival." Let's hope none of that volatile secret formula gets spilled! Swamp Thing is an unusual mix of monster movie and superhero flick, but definitely an enjoyable ride. Craven deliberately uses comic-book-style wipes and transitions to keep us from taking anything too seriously, and Louis Jourdan keeps up the tone with his camp performance as the evil Arcane. Also keep an eye out for young Reggie Batts in a terrific deadpan performance as Jude, the helpful gas station attendant. --Ali Davis
Product Description
Deep in Florida's darkest everglades, a brilliant scientist, Dr. Alec Holland (Ray Wise), and a sexy government agent, Alice Cable (Adrienne Barneau), have developed a secret formula that could end world hunger and change civilisation forever. Little do they know, however, that their arch nemesis, Arcane (Louis Jourdan), is plotting to steal the serum for his own selfish schemes. Looting the lab and kidnaping Cable, Arcane douses Holland with the chemicals and leaves him for dead in the swamp. Mutated by his own formula, Holland becomes "Swamp Thing"-a half plant superhero who will stop at nothing to rescue the beautiful Cable and defeat the evil Arcane...even if it costs him his life!
