Decent wind as usual. You need to get out here sometime. -- "j" ganz @@ www.sailnow.com |

You are lucky to live in such a nice place. Unfortunately, I smoke. It's like being a black man in 1960's Mississippi. I'm not welcome in the airport, or on the aircraft, or in San Francisco.

If Jonathan isn't able to take you out sailing, I'm sure he'll take you out for a good time paddling: http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/articl...BAVP137PGV.DTL |

I don't live in SF, but we're not that far away. It's quite an amazing place, but you're right... people who smoke are vilified, tarred and feathered, and run out of town on a rail. But, this hasn't happened in a long time. LOL -- "j" ganz @@ www.sailnow.com |
