A Fish Story

Dear Dr. Phil,

When I retired, I could hardly wait to spend time enjoying my favorite pasttime-

bass fishing. I got my own fishing boat and tried to get my wife to join me, but she

never liked fishing. One day at the bait and tackle shop, I got to talking to Sam the

shop owner, who it turns out loves bass fishing as much as I do. We became great

fishing buddies. As I said the wife doesn't care about fishing. She not only refuses

to join us, but she also complains that I spend too much time fishing. A few weeks

ago Sam and I had the best fishing trip ever. We caught a pair of beautys. I took a

picture of Sam holding up the two fish and showed it to my wife hoping she would

change her mind and join us. Instead, now she doesn't even want me going fishing

any more and wants me to sell the boat. What should I do? Tell the wife to forget it

and continue my hobby, or sell the boat?

Thanks.

P.S. Have enclosed a picture of Sam with the two fish we caught.

Dear Fisherman,

Get rid of that narrow-minded wife. Incidentally,

that's a nice pair of bass!

Sincerely,

Dr. Phil
