Hello all. I thought it was a good time to check in to discharge my duties
(a little inside humor) and fill you in about the new Obama administration sewage regulations for recreational boaters. But, you see, I can't seem to remember them anymore. My memory seems to be getting shorter and shorter as time goes along. I can remember things from way back then really well but I can't seem to remember much of anything from this morning for example. Oh, it just came back to me. Obama is going to tax boats because he says they are 'frivolous' forms of transportation used mostly by the rich and way to environmentally unfriendly. They haven't been paying their fair share and will need to very soon with the passage of the "Fair Share" bill. Those yachts that contain 'traveling' bathrooms will have to register in ALL of the states they operate in. Each state will charge a 'dumping fee' of between 250-500 dollars a year depending upon the size of your boat based on the number of heads and occupants. You will be required to display a dumping fee sticker prominently for each concerned state. Those boats without the required sticker(s) will be confiscated and sold at auction to reimburse the involved states for unpaid sticker fees. This is redistribution of wealth at it's finest. We should be all for it as our sport goes down the crapper along with the rest of the economy Cheers, Peggie Hall (Greg's little sister) |

This attitude belongs in the Dark Ages! Dennis. |

Ah well, another entry in the kill file. Wilbur, have you ever thought that without your frequent name changing that the world's kill files would be so... much... smaller...

Cheers, You must have some pretty shabby, hole-filled filters in your KF. Since my fake e-mail addy did not change, if you were smart enough to filter using that fake addy you'd never have seen the post. So don't blame me because you can't seem to manage your own affairs. -- Gregory Hall |

Making up **** is pretty despicable, kind of like what Fox news, and Rush Limbaugh do every day. And to sign someone else's name to your little fact less diatribe is worse than just making up ****. "I like President Bush, he was such a good president." Is this your point? If so I have a house I'd like to sell you. How about the truth, or is it beneath you? Plonk. Too bad, if you ever have something worthwhile reading I won't see it. But If making up **** is your tactic, you will never be worth reading. |
