A great rendition. It holds a special place for me, I used it for inspiration in a book I wrote as a memoir to my Dad. My Dad was always my anchor, more than my Dad and always more than a best friend, I'm sure lots of folks here can relate. He always made time on the weekends to go fishing and hunting with me and when he was busy working weekend overtime, he always left me a few bucks so I could go off on my own hunting or fishing; enough to cover bait, ammo and gas., he was the best, not perfect but perfect enough for me in every way. I know I was lucky is this regard, I can only hope that there were other Dad's who did what they could - it's not easy, I know that.
I have a few publishers copies of 'A Man and his Maniac; the Bunkie Story' and 'Dad, Dog and Fish' and I'd be happy to send them out at no charge. 'Dad, Dog and Fish' has the 'A Man and His Maniac; the Bunkie Story' as the centerpiece. I wrote 'A Man and His Maniac' as a test case before I wrote the memoir 'Dad, Dog and Fish' to see if my rough style of story telling would go over well. It did, so I finished the memoir as a tribute to my Dad. Look the books up on B&N and Amazon ( I think I've seen a few copies on eBay as well) if you want more info.
Anyway if anyone is interested, I'll get what I have left out.
