Either that or the date in their computer was wrong. Been there, done
that and got a tee shirt. Says "day late, dollar short" right there on
the front :-)

Cheers,

Hey Bruce, have you seen the movie "Morning Light"?

Nope. We don't go out to the movies much and the TV is all Thai
programs. No late night movie :-(

It's one of my very favorite DVDs.

It's a documentary about a bunch of kids that Roy Disney
invited to sail his TP52 in the Transpac race in 2007.

Highly recommended, if you ever get the chance.

Yes, we saw it in Key West a few years ago with some of the
participants. Very good sailing movie.

We have an enormous choice in pirate disks here. In fact there is a
far greater selection in the pirate shops then in the legitimate
places, so next time I'm by I'll have a look and see whether I can
find it.

LOL, I came real close to misunderstanding that.

The absolute worst movies I've seen lately are *Hollywood* pirate flicks...
(Pirates of the Caribbean).

I found "History of the TransPac" on Netflicks.
That was great. Interesting stuff, and educational without being boring.

So, other than "Wind", what else is worth watching?
