Here's the short uncut version....

I got tired of pooping in a bucket and fighting off honey bees while digging in a dumpster for something to eat...

Got myself arrested.. It took 3 yoked out cops to load my bicycle and trailer in the back of there truck... Cause it was that loaded down with scrap metal..

Facing a 4 year prison term.. I made a deal with God that if I got out before Christmas that instead of going fishing on Sundays I would go to church....

I was released December 20th 2013 with a court order to attend the Riverside County Salvation Army ARC.. Which come to find out has a bass and catfish pond...

Still don't fish Sundays without hitting a service first.. If we ever fish together I'll give you the long boring version.. Haha..

We fish the pm shift, so no issues with missing a church service with us. Have a great Christmas!
