Mike in “Unfinished Business”

Mike

Hey, Mike Baxter here for Outdoor Man, talking about chemistry. No, it's not just about lighting methane and hydrogen sulfide and sh**ting a blue angel from your nether regions. Man, I miss college. It also happens when a bunch of people work well together. Like the cast of Love Boat. That episode with Captain Stubing's dad? If you didn't cry watching that, I don't want to know you. British rock band The Who had great chemistry. Peter Townshend, Roger Daltrey, John Entwistle, and their wild man on drums, Keith Moon. Do you know how much it takes to be a crazy one in a rock band? Moon the Loon, as they called him. Had a way of pushing their buttons. He also pushed them to rock and roll glory. Now, legend has it that it was right after Keith said, "Hey, pull my finger", that Townshend wrote "Won't Get Fooled Again". Once Keith was gone, it just wasn't the same. That's the thing about chemistry, folks. You need all the elements to make a perfect compound. Two hydrogen molecules can't do squat until an oxygen molecule turns them into water. And then they ruin a baseball game. So don't take the little things for granted. Whether it's an atom or one of these hand-tied lures. Right? Which we have on sale all this week at Outdoor Man. Because if you only got a rod and a line, you're just a weird guy with a stick. Baxter out.
