You are not going to believe this, today at work I thought at lunch I would go catch a couple, so at lunch I head down to the lake, all excited I wizz my crankbait out as far as I can, and wouldnt you know there was freakin ice and my crank was stuck on it, son of a bitch, now being a 15 dollar crank, I wasnt going to lose it, so I shake it, pull it and do other things to it then snap goes my line, so all upset I go to the shop and grab our 60 ft man lift, I drive it all the way to the other end of the park and boom it out to get my lure, then wouldnt you know It ran out of fuel, it does have a warning horn but it was freakin unplugged, Son Of A Bitch, now what, I thought about it for a few minutes then thought I would walk the beam back to the base of the machine, so as im walking about half way back the freakin wind blows hard and knocks me off the beam, I was about 10ft off the ice and went completely through it, all I remember doing was blowing bubbles and realizing how cold this water is. So as Im breaking the ice making my way to shore, I look up and guess what, Theres My Boss
