Maddow started the show by accusing the RNC of deliberately timing the presentations at the convention so there was no time in between them for political analysis, by people like her, to dissect and provide their commentary/analysis. So, she commenced to doing so tonight. Changed the channel. Too much. Olbermann was whining about that last night. Something about the evil ones not allowing enough time for him to "comment" between speeches. I was flipping channels because some networks decided their talking heads' comments were more important than specific convention speakers. I found C-Span covered every speaker. Some weren't worth listening to, but C-Span provide the freedom to choose for yourself. I happened to be back at MSNBC when Rudy was talking, and he apparently went over his scheduled time. Olbermann's voice actually interrupted into his speech, as if he was going to pre-empt it, but somebody must have pulled him off the mic. Olbermann talks so much about O'Reilly that I just started watching O'Reilly. Cut out the middleman so to speak. I can hardly tolerate MSNBC any more unless they have some sensible people in the mix. Lots of bona fide nutcases there. Every network for the days leading up to Palin's convention speech constantly beat on McCain's judgement in picking her. Not a peep since then, and no admission they had been entirely wrong. Not a peep. Oh, I heard Bay Buchanan accuse Campbell Brown of it, but Brown arrogantly brushed her off.

Regular driver's license in good standing is all you need. I was really surprised at that, given the fact that everything else in the world is regulated here. I guess they just haven't got around to changing the requirements. There are some exceptions. For example, if you transport kids to school on a regular schedule, you need a special license. However, you *can* transport them if it's not on a regular, repeated schedule. You also need special permits to go into Boston, but I have no desire to do airport runs.

If I ever go over there again, I'll wave to him. Been to Oak Bluffs a few times, but it's a zoo during the summer. Right now would be an ideal time to visit the Vineyard. It's like someone shut a boating switch off Labor Day weekend. Even Kingman Yacht Center is quiet. I love this time of year and it's when I spend the most time on the boat. Nobody around, quiet and relaxing. This weekend might be a little exciting though with the storm blowing through. I'll be heading down there tomorrow morning, double up the lines and hunker down for the blow. The boat is in a protected area in what is called the "Back Basin", but it still gets a bit windy and the boats move around a bit. I might grab a mooring out front, just for the heck of it, unless it is blowing too hard by the time I get there. It's sometimes difficult to get the bow up to the mooring buoy, then run down on the deck and grab the line by yourself. We'll see. Eisboch |

After the boat settles back into the wind you can shorten up the bow line. |

Eisboch I'd be more impressed with him if he had spent time sufficient with his children to teach them about birth control. To set the record straight, do blame the parents of every teenager that goes astray? I have special contempt for right-wing extremists in a position of power who push or want to puse their religious/social agenda on others, but who can't even convince their children of their righteousness. Reverend Jesse? Jesse Jackson? Wow, his son "Jr." sure seems to have turned out ok, in terms of being a first-rate public speaker. Are you saying he didn't turn out ok? |

Did anyone happen to be watching the RNC last night on MSNBC and catch that poor excuse for a "journalist", *Keith Olbermann holding back the crocodile tears as he "apologized" for MSNBC's real-time broadcast of the RNC's *video tribute to 9/11? He determined, unilaterally, that it was totally inappropriate for the RNC to run the video and apologized to the viewers. Mind you now .... this was not his regular "Countdown" show where he regularly blasts away at Bush, Cheney and all things Republican. He was supposed to be the anchor for the news coverage of the RNC. What has happened to responsible reporting? * Tonight, on his Countdown show, that other left wing nutcase, Rachel Maddow, is sitting in for Olbermann *(she says he needed a well deserved day off). * Maddow started the show by accusing the RNC of deliberately timing the presentations at the convention so there was no time in between them for political analysis, by people like her, to dissect and provide their commentary/analysis. * So, she commenced to doing so tonight. * Changed the channel. *Too much. Eisboch He should have stayed at ESPN. *I found him quite amusing there. I agree. *As a sportscaster he was ok. * He was ok for a while also when he first started at MSNBC, but now, with his $500 haircuts, phony grey hair (has turned grey in the last 3-4 months) and unabashed ultra liberal journalism, he has become sickening. * I can't believe the executives at MSNBC haven't canned him. Eisboch Yeah, I can't believe that Phil Donahue was canned and Keith is still on the air. I mean, if you're going to have a lib on TV then make the best of it! |

Yes, I've had a few adventures with that when single handing the boat. My favorite evolving strategy is to attach a long line at the bow and run it aft; pick up the mooring either aft or mid-ships; run the bow line through the mooring pennant and cleat it off. After the boat settles back into the wind you can shorten up the bow line. The boat we have now has a pass-through that you can lower, allowing passage from the bridge to the forward deck. In normal weather conditions, it would be fine, but if it's blowing and rough it might be a bit difficult. The inflatable sits on the forward deck cradle also, so I'd have to work my way around it. Think I'll stay in the slip. Eisboch |

BTW, the pics of the camping trip are at Chuck's place. Pictures of a camping trip? Christ. What's next..photos of your trip over to Safeway? or even worse, photos of his cat sleeping on a printer with a walmart coupon. Harry gets ****ed because he knows I actually took the pictures. I didn't see any owls down by the creek though. And, he's got me filtered. You do know he reads every post, right? My comment was in jest. Every comment you make is in jest. It's your job, as the court fool. |
