<li>Fly tying your life away, and breaking the bank while doing it - <a href="http://singlebarbed.com/2008/08/05/one-of-those-internet-nuggets-i-overuse-with-relish/">Singlebarbed</a> explains it in one &#8220;desperate&#8221; pictorial.  I knew there was a reason I bought my flies.</li>
<li>Marshall Estes has been <a href="http://www.fly-fishing-colorado.com/wordpress/fly-fishing-colorado-conditions-8208/">prowling the South Platte</a>, and putting them in the net.  I applaud his <a href="http://michaelgracie.com/tag/south-platte-river/">choice of waters</a>.</li>
<li>The <a href="http://flyfishchick.com/2008/07/19/take-it-to-the-bank/">Fly Fish Chick</a> was back in Montana, and the fishing was good.  I&#8217;m pissed&#8230;because she&#8217;s much more photogenic than I.</li>
<li>Speaking of Montana, the fly-throwing carp master by the same name <a href="http://carponthefly.blogspot.com/2008/08/i-was-massively-skunked-today.html">got skunked last weekend</a>.  He doesn&#8217;t really care - the <a href="http://carponthefly.blogspot.com/2008/08/hard-to-believe-hes-2-now.html">kids were still cute when he got home</a>.</li>
<li>And while we&#8217;re on the subject of kids&#8230;Jeffrey Prest found a <a href="http://tauntedbywaters.wordpress.com/2008/08/05/learn-to-fish-properly-perish-the-thought/">great tool for teaching them how to fish</a>.</li>
<p>Now I&#8217;ll <a href="http://michaelgracie.com/2008/08/01/figuring-out-the-best-times-to-fish/#comment-12858">say it again</a>&#8230;get back to work.</p>
<p>PS: If you get busted reading this, just tell your boss <a href="http://busterwantstofish.com/?p=1038">corporate fly fishing still sucks</a>!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<!-- sphereit start --><p>Cato Unbound gets Richard Florida talking about <a title="Cato Unbound Blog Archive The Future of the American Workforce in the Global Creative Economy" href="http://www.cato-unbound.org/2006/06/04/richard-florida/the-future-of-the-american-workforce-in-the-global-creative-economy/">the future of the American workforce</a> in the new age of creativity.</p>
<p>Call it what you like, but there are risks to going it alone.  Like, working in a one-person office, working 24/7, and working on too many different things at once (the grand attempt at throwing a pile of stuff against the wall and seeing what sticks - something those ADD-laden creative types tend to go for quite often).</p>
<p>Then there is not having any creative capacity to begin with, but simply thinking you do - like me.</p>
<p>But, never feel sorry for any of them.  Despite all these risks, they <a title="Thought Market: Don't feel sorry for the struggling entrepreneur" href="http://www.michaelgracie.com/2005/10/18/dont-feel-sorry-for-the-struggling-entrepreneur/">only have to be right once</a> to make it all seem worthwhile.</p>
