I was extremely tired last night and figured that I would get a good night's sleep...wrong! I had a horrible nightmare, woke up in a cold sweat. What was ironic was that the characters in the dream were similar to some of the folks on this Forum.
The story started at an airport over in Tennessee, just a group of friends from other parts of the country and Canada meeting for three days of fishing at a lake by the name of Reelfoot Lake. All these friends had met on the computer Internet years earlier, and friendships had formed among them. Here they were, meeting in the flesh for the first time: Mike Rollings and Wayne Willis from Canada, Roy Otterman from Michigan, a retired military man by the name of General Raymond...wait a minute, one person had not arrived yet! Everyone was in the airport lobby waiting for the missing friend, a female friend by the name of Linda "Sunny" Mckinney from a small town in Arkansas called Gravel Pit...her plane had not yet arrived.
As the friends waited, they chit chatted in small talk. Wayne made the comment that they really had not planned on Sunny going on this fishing trip with them...some of them had given Sunny a hard row to hoe, always doing something to yank her chain, and Wayne was probably more guilty than the rest of them.
Wayne looked around and said, "Does anyone know what she looks like?" Roy said, "She has blond hair and will be wearing a name tag with the name Linda written in big bold letters." General Raymond injected some lip, "I don't know why we had to invite her, she will just cause problems." "We did not invite her" shouted Wayne, "She invited herself by promising to clean the camp area, cook the meals, and clean the fish!" Mike thought for a minute, then added to the conversation "I hope this was not a trick, telling us this just so we would let her tag along." "Say, let's give her the benefit of the doubt, but watch her closely" said Roy.
Then the dreaded moment arrived, the plane with Sunny had finally parked and the passengers were en route to the lobby. After about half of them had entered the lobby, Wayne spotted a beautiful blond haired woman standing off the side...he got pretty excited! "That is one beautiful woman, look at her!" Wayne was beside himself as he told the others, "do you think that is her?" General Raymond looked and shouted, "That is her, she has a name tag with the name Linda written on it!" Wayne looked again and said, "I guess having her along will work out just fine, let me handle this." "Watch me introduce myself" Wayne said as he approached the beautiful blond haired woman.
He was thinking how beautiful she looked, just like a movie star. Right then and there, he decided that he was going to really make a first impression...he walked up to the beautiful woman, threw his arms around her and joyfully told her, "Hello there, I am glad that you decided to spend three days with us, may just be the best threes days that you have ever spent fishing!" The beautiful woman looked both shocked and confused, never had a strange man walk up to her before and throw his arms around her. Wayne saw the puzzled look on her face and said, "I am Wayne!" All of a sudden, Wayne felt a heavy hand on his shoulder and a chill went up his spine when he heard the words, "What are you doing messing with my wife?" The look of fear showed on Wayne's face as he turned and looked into the eyes of a man that must have been seven foot tall and weighed pretty near three hundred pounds, all muscle with no fat. Wayne uttered the words, "Sorry, I am outa here!"
As Wayne approached his friends, who were bent over from laughing so hard, he noticed a blond haired lady that was wearing no shoes standing among them. She had a big smile on her face as she said, "hi! you must be Wayne. I am Sunny, from Gravel Pit, Arkansas!" A subdued, red faced Wayne could only utter, "Hello, yes, I am Wayne."
