I listened to McCain last night also. He didn't say a thing about Parker
boats, striper fishing, Atlantic crossings, lobster boats, draft dodging,
or liars.

Well, that certainly disqualifies him from being Harry unless he also
had a Hatteras sportfish in Florida with corinthian leather seats.

Ok, I've got to ask.

What the hell is corinthian leather?

Is that like Naugahyde?

It's from the backsides of three toed frogs.

EEEEWWWWWWW!!!!!!

However, and I actually know this - result of having a classical
education, Corinth was an ancient Greek city/state located on the
Isthmus of Corinth.

So Corinthian leather made from goats would actually make sense -
Greek goats.

I'll be damned.l


I can't believe how fast you learn geography.

(Gotta love Wikipedia!!)


Actually, I did - we posted about the same time.

Years ago, I was there - the first TRIP FROM HELL when Mrs. Wave and I
did a tour of the Greece and the Greek Islands. Only took me twenty
years to make another one to Ireland. :)

Mrs. Wave goes with her two buddies every year for two weeks - this
year, they are going to Denmark, Holland, Norway and Finland and on
the way back, they are visiting her best friend's parents in Iceland
for a week.

Pssst - it really wasn't that bad - I just didn't like the food much.
Beautiful though and the fishing was nothing short of spectacular.

I don't travel well. :)


The only thing that could make that trip more cool is if they did it on
motorcycles. Would you like me to contact some friends in Holland to round
up some Moto Guzzis?
