Well, I'm in favor of those with pleasure boats of 40 feet LOA and more
paying twice or three times the pump price, with the overage going to help
the poor buy heating oil for their homes and gasoline for their cars.

As you may have guessed, I trust oil companies/refiners about as much as I
trust Cheney and Bush, which is to say, not at all. Not for anything.

I think private residences with more than one kitchen facility setup should
be taxed at a rate triple that of a single kitchen house, six times more if
the second facility is part of a home office. The overage should go to fund
homeless meals.

Sounds like a winner. And those with empty horse barns should be housing
the homeless, and loaning them their vehicles so they can find work.

Actually, it's not a full kitchen. There's no cooktop or baking oven. :}

Live in a horsebarn? I think that's an opportunity even the homeless would
say, "No thanks" to.

Still have the Tolly, or are you "between" boats?
Between. Would invest but, unless it's a 8 kt. single screw with oar
locks, couldn't bear the thought of the fuel costs. I've been a twin-
screw guy my whole life. I like having a set of props.

It scares me to fill up the car these days.

I do miss floating around in a pretty big way. I need to haul the
whaler down to the lake and have run around. Perhaps my spirits will be
"buoyed"? :)

It's too bad the Cheney-Bush National Energy Policy's sole goal was to
enrich the oil companiies and refiners. Isn't it interesting that once
again, at the beginning of summer, so many refineries are shut down for
maintenance? What a coincidence.

Isn't it nice that we have our own developer of the fabled 'crock of
****' right here in rec.boats?

What is Pelosi doing to get them up and running?

Isn't it interesting that once

running rampant.

Who will be to blame in the next administration?




Well, I doubt the next administration will have its VP conduct secret
meetings with oil companies to form an energy strategy for the nation
that to this day it has kept secret. That's what Bush and Cheney did,
remember.

Who will be to blame? You're dodging the question. How's the lobsta
boat?

As I have stated before, the oil companies need to have citizen
oversight on their financial operations, among other controls.

Excellent.

I will volunteer to provide that oversight and ensure that fuel
efficient trawler owners have adequate supplies and reasonable prices.

Parker owners will pay a little more.

Harry, you could sell that little used Parker and buy lots of fuel for
the poor. Or, you could call the Boy Scouts, as Jimmie suggests.

The smells of nature.

I've got a week or so delay on the kitchenette project. The factory
shipped an incorrectly sized wall cabinet, unfortunately, a cabinet on
the inside of the row on the wall. But all the base cabinets are
installed, along with the dishwasher, its wiring, and the wiring for the
microwave and disposal. I might see my countertops on Friday. Maybe.

My union electrician charged me one-third the price of the non-union
contractor, not because I'm such a sweet guy, but because he was
experienced enough to finish the the wiring in a half day, without
cutting up my ceilings or walls. Slick.

A fine idea. I may do that.

The real joy was doing the work. I could do just about anything needing
be done and there's a lot of bliss in that. "Master of your domain" as
they said on Seinfeld.

It didn't impress the admiral that much, but it sure made me happy.

Personally, I think all people who have two kitchens should be taxed
as you suggest plus if they own a Parker, an additional 50% usage tax
should be added just because. :)

I actually may try to sell the Parker this year, instead of just talking
about it.

Will you be replacing it?
