I was in good Company this week in my continued search for that illusive 2lb Roach. In my last two adventures I have managed 6 x fish over the 1lb barrier, with the best fish attaining a very pleasing and impressive weight of 1lb 10 ozs. With this obvious success I had found it hard to contain my excitement and on that basis alone I had contacted some one I new would immediately jump at the chance...

It's tough to argue against logic like this...what with it lacking logic and all : If any vegans came over for dinner, I could whip them up a salad, then explain my philosophy on being a carnivore: If God had not intended for us to eat animals, how come He made them out of meat? Which completely explains the prohibition on eating things like Pigs, Shellfish, and... But don't eat the meat of any of...
