Determined to preserve quality time, I sucked it up, batted a few of them away with the rod butt and continued casting. I even heard my dad yelp from the stings a couple of times, which, strangely, made me feel a little better.

...smiling boy wearing a M*A*S*H shirt and giving his photographers a wave--lives on, reproduced on t-shirts, in the British tabloids, on television and on propaganda posters.
