The weather guy answered "No, it doesn't, but it doesn't mean that man has NOT caused global warming..." Talk about stupid comments... Depends on what's most important, job security or integrity. Fox doesn't take kindly to those who disagree with the memo. Accu-Weather can be replaced. Plenty of other weather outfits. --Vic Yeah, when I want both sides of an issue I don't turn of FOX where there are always representatives from both sides, I turn on MSNBC or NPR and hear both sides from one point of view... That's funny Vic... So answer the question Saran didn't, where do you get your news? Mostly cable TV. Fox, C-Span, CNN, MSNBC. But I also read actual legislation and random political commentary on the internet. I leave the scientific stuff to the scientists. They'll work it out. You saying Fox is neutral on the global warming stuff? I don't get that impression. The memo has been distributed. Talking heads reading what they're told to read from the prompter. Lots of blondes. Real climate scientists right there. Oh yeah. And nobody here strikes me as a ****ing climate scientist either. I don't care what side they take. Bet some are lucky enough to keep their boats afloat. Some real good cut-and-pasters though. Sorry. That's how I see it. No offense. But I won't go so far as to act like those Senators do to people they despise, and say "My dear friend and colleague." Hehe. You know what I mean. --Vic |

wrote: Thanks Vic, my dear friend and colleague ![]() I'll answer that this way. Guy and his wife- from NYC - are in Hawaii for the first time, on vacation. Problem is they are arguing about how to say Hawaii. The wife says it should be pronounced Ha-Vy-ee. Husband says it's Ha-Wy-ee. It's spoiling their vacation, because that's just how they are. They decide to get off the beach, find a native Hawaiian, and settle it once and for all. So they walk to a working class neighborhood in Honolulu, find a big dark-skinned guy sitting on a stoop, and wearing the traditional Hawaiian garb that looks like what saw when they'd see a native pork roast beach party on Hawaii Five-0. They know there's a Hawaiian word for native pork roast beach party, but always dance around that, figuring that just saying native pork roast beach party would keep the peace. And it's clear enough. Even Hawaii Five-0 is called just Five-0 in their household. Being big fans of Five-0 and Don Ho, and even knowing the words of "Tiny Bubbles" by heart only exacerbates this disagreement about how to pronounce Hawaii beyond their normal level of bickering. They like Hawaii. Why let it come between them? They could find plenty else to divorce over, so they both figure they won't let it be Hawaii So here they are actually in Hawaii, and it has come to a head. They even agree on how the question will be asked, so as not to influence the person they ask. Small victory right there. Husband says to the guy, "Excuse me, sir. My wife and I are having a slight disagreement about how to pronounce the name of these fine set of islands that comprise the 50th state. How do you pronounce it?" The guy says, "I say it Ha-Vy-ee." Wife smirks at husband, say to him, "That settles that." She turns to the guy and says, "Thank you sir! Thank you very much!!" He replies, "You're velcome." And so, my dear friend and rec.boats colleague, my reply to your most generous thanks is "You're velcome!" --Vic |

![]() Moku'aina o Hawai'i is the correct way. Don't know. Don't care. Just know that Kauai was the neatest place I have ever been to. My wife asked me what I'd do if I hit the lottery. I said go to Kauai for three months, maybe longer. Really don't care where she goes. Wife to hubby: Honey, pack yer bags, we hit the lottery. Hubby to wife: Should I pack for the beach or the mountains? Wife to hubby: I don't care, just pack your bags and go. Steve |
