Default IFD (inactive fishing disorder) alert

IFD,fact or myth. Well as you obviously know its just something that a kid named Andrew made up(me). But I as well as many other children including my brother David suffer from it. Living with Jennie@ifish I sometimes can get a chance to go out on the river or near the "Breakers" on the ocean(geese I love using fish talk) more than most children, or anyone for that matter. However, that doesnt always mean I will jump at the chance. sadly, as of late once I get the chance to go fishing I say eh or no thanks, than spend the rest of the day at home on the computer or swimming. This is the terifying fact that IDF has strucken many children. The sick sense of technology has soacked up your youth today! you must strike back! but how? how you ask? well the thing is if your teen notices that you like something chances are he/she will jump at the chance to hate it. so act like you are just disgusted with fishing(of course while they are at school you can sneak out the backdoor to go fishing and tell your spouse that you are going down to pick up a few items at the store), and be absolutely dazzled with your computer or the video game system in your house. see what happens and get back to me. you may be suprised!

I am not sure if I can act like I love Rap music, but if it will make them hate it, I can act that way for a couple seconds or so. [img]images/icons/grin.gif[/img]

Actually, my kids only want to go if I act like I'm not going to take them.

HI Andrew.

Hey, everytime I try that trick you mentioned about sneaking out the backdoor to fish, or golf, or whatever, I always have to come back in because I can't climb the darn fence anymore. And when I manage to get out the front door, when I get back, my wife and kids always stare at me with their arms folded and tapping their feet with agitation at me. What can I do about this? - RT
