I'd be pleased to read an AP item datelined in your town stating that a short greaseball with a ponytail was pecked to death by a wedge of swans, who then left the scene of the assault laughing loudly. Are you on Mary Jane, Coke, or some new designer drug your wife introduced you to? Probably something prescription, the guy is barely capable of getting through the day... I'm not a heart patient like you are, little dungball. The only "med" I take is an OTC multivitamin. Better check the label to make sure it wasn't made in India and distributed through Canadian Pharmacy. -- 1-20-13 The end of an error |

Of course the so called "Canadian Geese" are a huge pest also, and should now be called American geese since most of them haven't flown north in years. Kill 'em, kill 'em all...they interfered with a boat ride. And Harry fails miserably to see the point, as usual. Harry do you want to save the Zebra Mussels from death, too? How about Pythons in south FL? Snakehead fish? Asian carp? The list goes on! Wait till mussel seeds get into his engine and grow. He'll see the point then. His car or riding mower? He's boatless. -HB |

A mute swan can have a wingspan of 6 feet and is readily capable of breaking bones and causing severe injury. === And that is no joke. We were once dive bombed by a swan while riding in the dinghy, apparentlly having gotten too close to a nesting area. It was like having a 747 coming at us at close range. As the article says, ducks and geese will not mess with a swan.

Then you gotta have the engine. Actually, herring, you have to have your boat in the water for the mussels to attach. So, you have no worries. Absolutely not. My boat is on a trailer in the marina, all snug as a bug in a rug. Where's yours? Winterized yet? On the hard at a boatyard in the Deale area, all buttoned up. Yup. It's true. They will store a canoe - they will even shrink wrap it if you want to pay for it! -HB |
