I think I finally got an ID on my Grandfathers Boat. Ever heard of a
Waymouth?. An older fishing charter Captain down the Lake from me ID'd
it. Dont know if it's positive, but he swears that's what it is.
Gonna do a google on it, and see if I get a hit.


Can't say I have.
Is it spelled Waymouth or Weymouth? S.

The Brits have a bad habit of misspelling many words.

I happen to know that you also have a Weymouth in MA. (we have one here in
NS of course).
A future professional hockey player named Bobby Sheehan, who was in my grade
12 class when he played his junior hockey here, came from there.

As a matter of fact, I believe our village got it's name from the Loyalists
who left Mass in the mid 1700s when the ungrateful rabble was acting up..

My gawd. You sure do know your geography.
And when it came time to fight for what's right, the pansies ran north.

What's funny in all of this, is this is a classic example OF slammer,
FOR slammer. Notice that no one has come and started trashing his
family, yet I guarantee if it was the other way around, slammer would
be here being vulgar and low life.

If it wasn't for the proud and courageous separatists, You'd still be
curtsying to the Queen. Oh wait! You still do.
Down here we show respect a different way. Give her a pat on the butt
and a couple of CDs and we're good. You can't say we don't have class.

You sure have some oblique "penpals." Is SepticTank FloridaJim referring
to U.S. males who headed north during the war against Vietnam so they
wouldn't have to bomb or shoot women, children and villages in order to
protect Topeka, Kansas, from an invasion by the Viet Cong?

Horsepuckey.

By far, the majority that fled did so because they didn't want to expose
themselves to any danger or felt they could pick and choose their
constitutional obligations.
Lot's of stories made up, but those are the real reasons. I lived it, as
did you. Let's not re-write history to serve your purpose.

True conscientious objectors stayed and made their cases. Some won and some
lost. Those that lost paid their dues in other ways. They deserve
respect.

My "take" on the war against vietnam is a lot stronger than the view I
presented, which I heard from more than a few contemporaries.

Sometimes the real reasons and history of why nations get themselves
involved in wars fade out of consciousness. They sure have for Vietnam.

I think we are getting ourselves deeper and deeper in the crap in
Afghanistan and Pakistan. Modern foreign occupiers/invaders have not had
a lot of success dealing with Afghanistan. Pakistan is a horror of a
whole different magnitude because of its nuclear weapons. What *we* are
supposed to do with either of these failed countries is beyond my
understanding. Neither of the governments of those countries have the
ability to withstand religious zealots. Hell, Pakistan was founded by
religious zealots.

When we finally leave Iraq, whenever that is, it, too, will slide back
into failed nation status, ripe for the plucking by the religious zealots.

"Reasons" then and now are two entirely different things. When pressed for
a decision, you have to act on the information you have at the time. I
don't find fault with anyone who does so in good faith, even if they are
found to be in error in history's hindsight.

I agree with you and am not critical of Obama's actions thus far in
Pakistan.
It's a serious problem and a real risk to our national security and that of
our allies.
I wouldn't want his job. But my point was that few of these problems are
really as simple as the Monday morning quarterbacks make them out to be.
