"same day rule?"
Where did "same day rule" come from? I always wonder where people come up with their blog-spot titles. Some are pretty random and i'm sure there's a story behind each. I figured i would let everyone in on what it means to me! Actually it reminds me of a vacation i took to Alaska last summer--2004. I went with my mom and dad, an aunt, uncle and just one of my 4 brothers, Bridger. He is a brother that....well, how can i put it nicely....isn't the brightest crayon in that new box of Crayolas!! HA HA He was 18 years at the time of the trip. He is just a goofy kid! Although we did not grow up in the country...he is as REDNECK as they come!! Has anyone ever watched the "Blue Collar Comedy Tour?" If so, you are probably laughing already and quoting all the classic one-liners in it! So, you know LARRY THE CABLE GUY? yeah, the hick that talks like he didn't make it past 6th grade and wears a big flannel shirt with the sleeves cut off? That is my brother Bridger to a T!!! He walks, talks, eats, sleeps, drinks, wears and drives REDNECK!! He is a real classic! "GIT-R-DONE!!!" HA HA HA
So, this Alaska trip was 11 days straight of fishing. My dad had booked different trips and outings each day and we were on a tight time schedule, that usually started somewhere around 5:30 am each day. Bridger, being the speedy cowboy that he is always was strugglin' to get on the ball. We were always waitin' on Bridge---wherever we went! "TODAY, TODAY" was what we were saying constantly. Then it turned into "SAME DAY RULE!" And that's how it came about. You probably had to be there, but it got to be pretty funny when about 5 times a day we were saying "same day rule, Bridge!" Now a year later it is a phrase that still lingers around my parents house! I use it when i'm waitin around for friends or my husband and i always laugh to myself but nobody quite gets it. If nothing else, just go rent the comedy tour and look out for my brother Larry...i mean Bridger and you will see how interesting things can be in the life of a Brklacich!
