Brian,

I resent the remark in your previous posting. While Eric's knowledge is vast, mine clearly outpaces his in being useless.

For example:

1)Don't touch the roof of your tent or it will surely leak in the rain.

2)The name of the manufacturer of the drinking fountain next to the Mess Hall was Eijler. As I recall this was an all night T-hunt clue that Jordan Mandel figured out in '81 when I was a Woodsman (the iceman cometh).

3)There is no such thing as a Wiperwill. Those noises were made every night all over the Northwoods by cabin 14 members.

4)John Kittleson became a millionaire collecting upc's from batteries.

5)Bob Mercer's infamous black eye came from an individual with whom he had an arguement. The gentleman was hunting on Little Horseshoe and Merce was quite upset. Everything else is Northwoods legend.

6)Plunker

7)The last line of "Taps" is "God is nigh" not "God is night" as previously posted by Bobby D. Nigh means near according to Webster.

8)If I weren't a camper, a birdwatcher I would be. There's a birdie, there's a birdie, there's a birdie.....splat.

9)The magic A-Lake water (i.e. the acid test for Chief Namekogan's "nighness") came from the spot where the deertracks formed an arrowhead pointing to A-Lake. I paid close attention as Jay Filderman returned from his long run to Council Horseshoe (circa 1981).

10)"Long sleves after dinner. The temperature has dropped 20 degrees in the last hour alone." Frankie D.

11) "Get off the asphalt" (clap clap clap,clap,clap) "Get off the asphalt" (clap clap clap,clap,clap)

12) Jim Trench definately pissed in Mark Fogelman's waders.

I rest my case Big Lew.

Your brother,

Joel "is" Lewis
