The Curmudgeon

I am not a fisherman. My grandfather knew it, and I like to think that he got a kick out of it, since he never was, either.

I am not much of a golfer. In fact I'm not a golfer at all and cannot pretend to imagine its appeal.

Not a baseball fan. Nor football. Nor basketball.

Then there's hunting. It's not the guns. It's not the animals. It just isn't my thing, either.

Nor motor boats. Nor power tools.

So keep your fishing lures, I guess. Keep your sports equipment. Keep your rifles and deer corn and loud roaring machinery.

I am content to be the curmudgeon that I am, pronouncing what I am not and proclaiming what should not be.
