It's a hotly-contested election year, Kathy. Problem is, you've been
hanging on a mooring ball; not on a dock. The conversation on docks these
days is similar to ASA. You may consider yourself fortunate.

Old salts like to watch a good fistfight now and then, or what's sadly
turning into a gay-bash with Bush & Cheney pounding the Kerry & Edwards
girls to pieces. I thought it was going to be close, but the trend is
all Bush lately.

With all due respect Kat, politics is very important to sailing right now.
Important waterways are silting closed because the current president has
diverted the $$$ needed to maintain them to his Iraqi misadventure. I had to
move my boat because it's 5.5' keel could no longer get in/out of the creek.
He has issued edicts that restrict our freedom to come and go as we please
and encouraged law enforcement harassment of any SV capable of reaching Cuba
or carrying drugs - all the while failing to enforce environmental laws
intended to keep our bays and rivers habitable. And the list goes on and on,
very gradually becoming OT.

I was going to post the same thing this morning but figured it won't do any
good, and would probably start a flame war.

Right on, Katy

I'm in a slip, no sailors on our docks talk politics.
