52. That Guy
I took the next day off to fish.  The guy fishing next to me said we were lucky to have such a warm day in October.  A photographer walking behind us said she loved using the fall leaves as a backdrop.  The guy’s girlfriend marveled at the beauty of several large rainbow trout visible in the clear water.
 
A middle-aged man next to her said, “The only reason the state stocked them trout was the hatchery didn’t want to feed ‘em no more.”

Today I won’t be that guy.
