Billy was a simple country boy, you might say a cockeyed optimist, who got himself mixed up in the high stakes game of world diplomacy and international intrigue. Oh wait, that’s Billy Mumphrey.
hey pete — i didn’t know where else to put this .. but, i had to tell you .. get your A** over on facebook — sign up as fishing jones … its soooooooo much fun and “everyone” is over there .. its not the same without you .. find me .. “flies fins” …. seriously —– you will have a blast and it ties in perfectly with fishingjones.com and your style …
ps.. i hate to detract from this post here — so, if need be, just delete this comment .. come on brotha .. everyone’s doin’ it .. and over there .. its not the same with FISHING JONES … i suggest you sign up as “fishing jones” ..
So funny, I had never heard of Peter Matthiessen until recently when my friend Tom said, “What! You’ve never heard of Peter Matthiessen?” .. Now, I hear about him everywhere I go .. I hear that his book “The Snow Leapord” is more than very good. Now, I am convinced I have to get one of his books and find out for myself, why he and his writing is so well respected.
Just picked this up in the airport on your recommendation. Great so far… but it’s not exactly a book you want to read, airport drunk and jetlagged. Too dense, too good.
Trying to stay hip? You caved and got a tatt, didn’t you?!
Actually just trying to go with a vague and unhip Billy Idol reference. I stopped trying to be hip back in ’98.
Billy who?

Hey Jeremy,
Thanks for the note. I’ve been avoiding Facebook so far but it sounds like a runaway freight train.
it is man … hop on …. its a wild ride ..
I feel hip. I ordered the book before you posted it .
BTW facebook gets old real quick .Let me know when you go.lol.
I’ve heard that about Facebook and plus I don’t want to jeopardize my standing in the witness relocation program. I’ve said too much…

No doubt. Reading it is a commitment.
