Is it real... or is it Dwayneorex?

By God it was Ella Fitzgerald! Dwayne and Cindy are down here (the names have been changed to protect one who personifies innocence, while the other is light years away from that state), as they have been pretty regularly for 20 years. Cindy is a stable, spiritual, charming, comely woman about whom I have nothing but thoughts that are warm and friendly. Dwayne on the other hand, is my kind of guy. We discovered that we both attended the same alma mater ("Oskie Wa Wa" says we) and even toiled under the same discipline, we both know about emitters and followers, as well as grids and plates. Dwayne is a different kinda guy. He has an aggressively cleaver sense of humor which he enjoys, I do to. While others look a little confused with his scatalogical mental meanderings, I seem to stay right in the pocket. I'm not sure whether that speaks particularly well for either of us, but it is that which it is. Wayne worked for one of those computer companies named after a fruit, and did for many years. Not only could they keep him entertained, the investment opportunity was a good one. He spends a lot of time hunting and fishing, mostly not too far from his native environs in Northern California, but now and again he voyages down here. "I come here to learn" he says. I like that. The fishing this week has been a little slower than weeks past, but there are still some yellow tail, pargo, cabrilla, and the occasional dorado. Wayne and I have discussed the use and misuse of spectra, deep diving plugs, moon phases, and many other fishy related stuff. His storehouse is fairly full of stuff about fishing, but he listens to and enjoys the opinions and experiences of others. Isn't this the key to the engineering mind? Taking in all the data that you can, mixing it around, and coming out smarter for it. I wish that more of those that make decisions for us were always learning, looking for a more accurate picture of what is, and thinking harder of what could be. Really nice folks, Dwayne and Cindy.
