Default MoveOn suppressing free speech?

Perhaps we could enlist them to suppress political speech on
rec.boats? Where's George Soros when we need him?

You can always tell when the weather starts to get cold in the north.

Things are still nice here in the Chesapeake however, although the
nights are getting cool. Our new inverter powered electric blanket is
doing a super job but that morning dash to the generator and heating
controls gets your attention. On our old Bertram I could reach the
electrical controls from the bunk, an unappreciated advantage of
smaller boats. The weather during the day has just been super for
over a week.

Meanwhile we are still awaiting our first sighting of a LT Parker.
Most of the boats out on the bay seem fairly substantial but we are
not yet south of Annapolis where most of the elusive LT sightings have
been reported. I'm keeping the camera constantly ready for an on
water foto op. Stay tuned.

Busy with his hedge fund creating havoc in the oil and money markets
trying to ruin the American economy.

39 freakin' degrees this morning at 5 AM when I rolled out to let the
dogs out.

Kind of like going to the outhouse in January.

(For the record, when I was an active hunter, I've done that - it
ain't fun let me tell you what.)

Keep us posted.

I've heard tales of LTPs in the lower Bay area.

A susbtantial reward will be offered for any images of same. :)

You're talking to a guy who has done Army bivouacs in the snow with a
pup tent. We thought it was tough at the time and then you look at
some of the recent WW2 footage of guys who spent weeks and months like
that. Same thing in Korea I guess.

Yeah, don't take your boots off for a whole month, because of
swelling etc.

At one time there were many LTP on the Lower Bay area, but they were all
swamped and are now oyster beds.
