You could dine out on that one story for a year, up there.<BR/><BR/>And the kid is learning from his elders' fine example. Instead of being thrilled at such an unusual sighting? He whines about it as if it were unfair somehow: <BR/><BR/>“It was just my 11th birthday, and I had to catch an alligator,” he said. “Why couldn’t I catch a little trout?”khttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06430423256832961746noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11967806.post-1154795104998858012006-08-05T12:25:00.000-04:002006-08-05T12:25:00.000-04:00dang.....something seriously wrong with those peop...dang.....something seriously wrong with those people! they were very lucky, in my estimation.....and, I feel bad for the gator!Jeanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02099808690177823190noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11967806.post-1154704268729061332006-08-04T11:11:00.000-04:002006-08-04T11:11:00.000-04:00Yeah, I noticed that he seemed friendly at first. ...Yeah, I noticed that he seemed friendly at first.
