註釋"Some of the most interesting people I¿ve met during my life span have been fly fishermen, gypo loggers, and drunks. I write this book with authority since I was a card-carrying member of each fraternity (the drunk part I took a demit from some 25 years ago). Most of the yarns I either experienced myself or acquired on the riverbank, over the sound of buzzing power saws or, at great expense I must add, across bar stools. The stories herein are all true to the best of my recollection, clouded as it might be by a fog of Jack Daniels and/or cheap wine. For those who are not familiar with the term ¿foglane,¿ I¿m referring to the part of the highway marked by a white line on the passenger side of a vehicle. We are taught from childhood to paint within the lines. As young adults we are taught to drive within the lines. Once you cross the fogline to the right you are entering the foglane. Keep going to the right and you are in the ditch, guardrail or worse. Traveling in the foglane is an iffy business; one little bump in the road can land you in dire straits." -- Keith Topping
