<Author's note, the package said Alaskan Pollock when I bought it last night to make chowder tonight.   Plus a fly rod is sporting, dyno-mite is more effective than trot lines.)

[Capt. Hamp Cox]

Explosives attract too many a them game wardens.  Ifin its catfish you want, all you need is the genertor from a old hand crank telyphone, an a couple a long wires with lead weights on the ends, a camo oufit, an a long handled dip net .

[Trinity]

Trinity writes down these ideas and goes out to go fishing.  First, he stops to check on the stills and to take care of some matters.

[Joyce (AnnieLee)]

Wearing a calico dress, the Frumpy Fairy Godmother puts on her palm leaf hat, gathers up her working gloves, and heads to the greenhouse Litl Rooster made for her. She is humming merrily; perhaps along with tending to her orchids, she'll have some luck with the hybrid "Delmonico Flytrap" she's been trying to grow.

[Trinity]

Over at still site number eight Trinity checks the supply of corn and stokes the fire.  He takes a twelve day old jug and tastes it.   Then tastes it again...  Then again.  

Not 100 percent pleased with the taste he sets about the task at hand.

[Scattered Thumbs]

The Frumpy Fairy Godmother pauses, then shakes her head.

"What am I doing? The man is insane, why do I expect him to be rational?"

She gets up from her seat to look for something to cook for dinner.

Wof wof wof wof wof. Wof Wof?*


* Twas you that turned me into a dog in a painting. Why are you complaining?

[Trinity]

<<Author's note>>  She only threatened to turn you into a dog painting.  She didn't because of your whining about wanting to know what your hand is! 

[Scattered Thumbs]

The Frumpy Fairy Godmother blinks as the paintings change before her eyes,

I guess I was skimming to get back to the story. 

Well, was the hand any good?

Arf!

[Scattered Thumbs]

Wof! Arf, Wof Wof. <Dog grin>

[Delmonico]

Before headin' out for the day, Delmonico checks his fish in the icebox.  I'ts still a bit frozen, he's confussed about how not only did he catch Alaskan Pollock in the Dismal, they were frozen.

[Joyce (AnnieLee)]

Hearing a ruckus of dog barking in the house, the Frumpy Fairy Godmother walks back inside. She narrows her gaze on Trinity and the painting.

"I never changed you," she speaks to the painting, "You just changed several times in front of my eyes! I think Slim had something to do with it. But I *can* change you into something else. What would you like to be?"

<<Author's note>> Trinity is at the Stills, not in the house.  The noises that the FFG heard were from a conversation between the Author and Scattered Thumbs, and were not really in the realm of the Newbrasskey story.  If this were explained to the FFG she might begin to understand the copious references to AnnieLee and tear apart her understanding of reality.  If this were to happen... Well we don't wan't to even think about it.

[Delmonico]

Meanwhile Delmonico has ordered King Crab traps, since he caught Alaskan Pollack in the Dismal, there must also be King Crabs lurking down in the depths of it.

He then here's a strange noise and goes to check up what it going on.  The noise is about a 1/2 mile downstream from the house.

<Authors note: The p in crabs was purely by accident, I need to proof better. )

[Delmonico]

Delmonico heads down river and looks down at the river from the bluff.  Down there around the bend in his favorite fishing hole is a Japanese Trawler fishing in his spot in violation of Internation Treaties. 

Delmonico rides on into Dunning and telly-graphs The Nebraska Fish Comission and requests a Game Warden be sent to in-vest de-gate.
