"Earl Baldwin, an English gentleman always wore a tie while fishing. Mr Baldwin’s favorite saying was “Bites make mighty fine soup”. From panman Earl is his grandfather

Rick, I’m not quite sure what Mr. Baldwin was trying to say, but I once worked with a guy – a really sloppy eater – who liked to say he’d never starve: “If I lose this job, I can always boil my neckties and make soup.”
If grandpa was still alive he would say that his grandson is a real poor quoter. Rick published the quote exactly as I sent it to him. I screwed up. My fault. Grandpa said “Bites make mighty THIN soup”.
Sorry.
