The Haircut One day a florist went to a barber for a haircut. After the cut, he asked about his bill, and the barber replied, 'I cannot accept money from you, I'm doing community service this week.' The florist was pleased and left the shop. When the barber went to open his shop the next...

Waiting on the wife to send me a picture. Too warm for the redfish to be up the creeks. But we still managed our keepers. New Years Eve and New Years day 75 degrees. No wind. There were plenty of boats in the water. The Suwannee River doesn't have much flow due to the drought in South...
