They're obsessed.

I once asked a world renowned intellect why my friends who'd been
consumed with drugs had swung wildly to Jesus. His answer: "People
need something to do."

What these simpletons have to do is Harry. Without him there's a void
since they only know how to react. Creating anything is beyond their
ability.

Hope you're well Don.

Things are going well here... except for the weather.
Every weekend tends to be rainy & cool, although that shouldn't bother me
too much since I'm retired.
I'm getting excited about boating again...even though it will be on a
noisy
open aluminum boat this year.
What's happening out your way?


What a notion, retirement!!!

I'm busy making a living, hoping to salt enough money for kid's
college and retirement, wondering if it'll ever come. May move
directly from working to the old folks home.

Dreaming about boating again but have nothing more than a dinghy right
now. Can't image power boating given the pump prices -- I'm no blow
boater...

Thinking single screw diesel but then would have to relearn how to
maneuver... suppose a couple of thrusters might cure the anxiety. The
only thing I'd have to get past at that point is get home power.
Paddling 20K+ lb. isn't a good option.

Are you a Great Lakes guy or further east?

Don is in Nova Scotia.

Yup...as far east as you can go without getting wet....... unless you want
to get wet.
Hockey fans might be interested to know that I was in my brother-in-laws
skybox this afternoon watching Canada beat Finland at the world Hockey
Championships.
Had a better seat than Prime Minister Stephen Harper or our Premier
'Fiddlin' Rodney MacDonald. who were down below us sittin' with the common
folk.
