Killing Loran-C will save the government $190 million over five

backup.

Somehow Obama is being a real jerk in insulting our intelligence.
Even
if we are gullable to believe it costs $190 million over 5 years to
keep, lets do some math.

You don't even have a boat...

Have a hand held GPS, and rent boats when appropriate. Sort of silly
for
me to own one at the moment being I live in a land locked area. Easier
to drive the 1600 km to my favorite fishing hole and rent one for a
week
or two.

Right. Of course. Just like Skipper, you drive nearly 1000 miles to go
fishing. And you track your route on your hand-held GPS.

You are pathetic. hk and his SS Minnow.

Please...you *drive* a thousand miles to go fishing? Bull****.

Yep. Bad day fishing on a boat is better than a good day a work.

I would kill before I let my fishing rods go.

That's funny, Harry calling someone a bull****ter? LOL, funny...
