Jim's Cafe, 16th of June, 2021

[SillyOldBear]

You come across a rocky beach with calm waves and a windy blue sky. Maybe it's a good time to fish, and to enjoy the day on this beach. The seal won't bother you for a while, as it is chasing crabs and barking at seagulls. Anyways, what do you think you will catch?

A cold and a sunburn

A cold and a sunburn

Hehehehe 🤗🤗

 

[RCee]

I am loving these answers by the way. I feel like the majority of us are just wayyyy too realistic of our own selves

With how lazy I can be I would be catching some zzzzzzzzzzzzzs and catch a nap.

Tysm for the tag @johnDoen and for opening the cafe today. Sorry to hear you've been feeling stressed about your job, that sucks. I hope you'll soon be able to find somewhere better to go where you are appreciated and paid better. Glad you're feeling better now though that's great to hear

In reply to the question about what I think I'd catch - I dunno what I'd catch but hopefully a salmon or 2 or some other kind of yummy fish, that'd be cool. Never been fishing though so like many others already said maybe I wouldn't actually catch anything at all lol. Would still have fun hopefully though

Hope everyone has a nice day, here's some pix I found the other day that I think are cool, sorry if I posted any of them before.

hey @johnDoen , a message drawn in the sand, I presume written by the seal, suggests that I can place the rocks just so, that lying down upon them can actually be quite comfortable. a long pole I already had with me from my walk in the park - as well as a roll of dental floss in my pocket. and these hooks left behind by the fisherman will all work for my needs. I'll just rest here on the rocks with the floss tied to my ankle at one end and a hook at the other. once I feel the tug, I'll know I made the catch. of course I'm hoping for fugu or hamachi. a tuna or salmon will be fine. legend has it that these waters are brimming with exactly that of which one dreams. be it fish. be it dreams!!! Seal's note was signed, you know what!!
best,
you know who!!!

dare I suspect seal planted some hidden meaning.

I know that for such a long time I've been feeling the tug...

The seal won't be able to write as it doesn't have thumbs.
Well, anything is possible, I mean the seal can speak English, maybe.
I think this is a good idea for the next time.

@johnDoen TY for the tag! As sjways your cafes are funny! Lol love Mr. Seal. Fibsch! Murph,. Egg~
I wish I was at the beach!! I'm trapped in a hot desert.
I think I would try catching crabs somehow. Would need a boat though hmmmm.
Here's the weather my end : View attachment 45955

Well, that is hot. Are you from the US?
You can follow the seal for crabs. Well, I think you have a better chance to catch crabs than the seal on land.
A seal moves on land bubbly, that's all I can say, not really fast, though.

I may go around with a translator and I do believe seals have quite versatile flippers. but I do have to admit that that most importantly, "you know who" could be anyone!

 

[Blue Star]

Thanks for tag, @johnDoen.

I love the ocean, but I am not sure what I would catch. Some waves, perhaps??

It has been a while. My work is quite stressful, and I constantly feel like I'm underpaid and unappreciated, or that life is unfair in general. A good thing is I'm feeling better now.
Alright, what happened on this day:

• 1884, first roller coaster in the world, built at New York's Coney Island amusement park.
• 1944, the execution of a 14-year old kid after 2 hours of unfair trial, in the US. The event was too absurd I have to mention.
• 1963, Valentina Tereshkova became the first woman in space. Nowadays, she is a politician in Russia.
• 2010, Bhutan banned tobacco completely.
• 2012, Liu Yang became the first Chinese woman in space. Will she be a politician, too?
• 2016, Shanghai Disneyland was opened.
• 2019, protests began in Hong Kong.

As for the tags,
@Auri @MisterBGone @may71 @JMG @1964dodge
@Dante @GodIsWithMe @Dinolaur @LonelyHiker @Kira

Unfortunately, I dont think I will catch much. I am a poor fisherman, though I think I will still toss in a line, and sit on the beach enjoying the sun and the sky. Secure the pole to the rocks and pill out a book to pass the time.

Thanks for opening Cafe and the invite @johnDoen . .wow, interesting facts and I'm glad you're feeling better.

I'd catch a....

[Road to Nowhere]

Thanks for the tag john, I caught a bluefin tuna.

 

[FFurry]

Thanks @johnDoen ! Given the beaches in my area, I would likely catch the high tide rapidly closing in, then perhaps a rescue boat coming to pick me up stranded on a rock out at sea.

 

[Baywasp]

Thanks for the tag @johnDoen
Last time I went fishing I caught a catfish. I can't find any catfish here though. Idk what I'll catch today, but I hope it tastes better than the catfish I caught with my grandpa. (That was in a little pond that was artificially stocked with fish.)

 

[Kira]

I caught a large octapus yay
Thanks for inviting

Did you go squidding off a pier or did you catch it some other way? No real reason for asking other than I'm a sticky beak!

I am not sure I just saw it and used my fishing net in the waters

Cool! I have family that fish for them off piers occasionally. Actually, my ex told me the other day that he'd caught a few and had popped them in the freezer so I told him that the next time he was near my place, to drop some off! I haven't had it fresh for years!
