-33 C (-27 F) when I woke up this morning, but it's up to a steamy -28 C
(-18 F) now. My wind meter is frozen, but there is breeze (I think the
weather network said "-45 C" with windchill which converts to "too f'ing
cold for words" in Farenheit). But it is sunny.

Funny you mention the red state vs. blue state when talking about the
homeless.

Maryland is a blue state and I would assume that Harry is talking about it
because he lives there.

Washington D.C. is a blue state if you will and they have a very large
homeless problem.

Virginia is a red state and they don't seem to have the homeless problem
that Maryland or D.C. have.

I imagine they give homeless folks a metrocard if they will go across the
bridge.
The reality is homeless folks will cluster around the spigot where the welfare
money flows.

Hi Bill:
You could not have picked any more beautiful area to take your
camping/fishing trip than Vancouver Island.

How many days do you have for your trip? There are so many things to see
and do on the Island that a trip up to the Sunshine Coast may be just too
far.

The Pacific Rim area of Vancouver Island is just spectacular! Tofino and
Ucluelet are lovely.

Unless you have lots of time, like several weeks, then my advice is to stay
on the Island.

Check this out. www.vancouverisland.com/towns.html this will give you
the milages and some explainations of "whats there"

Basically, the Sunshine Coast is the other side of Georgia Strait from
Nanaimo. Victoria is farther south. You might want to consider one of BC
Ferries' "Circle Tours" - you start on the Mainland, go to Victoria, north
up the Island, then across to the Sunshine Coast and back south.

http://www.bcferries.com/News/circlepac.html

Strathcona park is nice toward the north, Campbell River area. Or if
you're adventurous, Cape Scott Park at the northern tip ( ;) )

But be sure to check out "WCVI" (West Coast Vancouver Island)!

I have been to Vancouver Island before, but not for a lot of years. We took
the ferry boat to Prince Rupert in about 1971. Have only seen the mainland
side of the island. Taking the Truck with camper and I think the Jetcraft
boat. Probably 4-5 weeks. Semi-retired is nice. Take 4-5 days each way to
Canada. From San Francisco area. Visit friends in Portland and Salem, OR
as well as wife's relative in Seattle.

Rather than try to run all the way over there from Victoria, you can

launch
your boat from Vancouver, Gibsons, Garden Bay, or somewhere else on the

fewer
interesting small boat options than launching at Sidney.


Maybe take the ferry boat over to the mainland from the Northern part of the
island. Then check out the Sunshine Coast on the way back down.

Toss them out of where? Most liberals don't attend church. Bush won by
almost a 3 to 1 margin among those who regularly attend religious services.
If liberals went to church more often, and actually put some money in the
collection basket, then more money would go to the homeless.

" when he weekends at Camp David, Bush spends Sunday morning with the

....which means he goes to church. Ask Harry when was the last time he

Funny you should state they talk funny. On a business trip to Asia and Oz
in the 1980's I took my wife with me. After 2 weeks in Hong Kong and
Singapore, we flew to Sydney. She stated that it will be nice to get
somewhere that we can understand the people. After a coupe of days in Oz,
she said, I could understand the Asian English better than these people. We
still laugh at that. And my former business partner lives in Melbourne (at
least 30 years) and when we see them over here, we still laugh about the Oz
accents.

I spent some time with the Australian SAS types and it took a while to
