It's govern - not rule...
The co-chair of Barack Obama's Transition Team, Valerie Jarrett,
appeared on Meet the Press this weekend and used, shall we say, an interesting word to described what she thinks Barack Obama will be doing in January when he's officially sworn into office. Jarret told Brokaw that "given the daunting challenges that we face, it's important that president elect Obama is prepared to really take power and begin to rule day one." Oh, I'm thinking over reach and one term Presidency. |

We are going to be getting quite a few talkings to in the months post inaugural telling us that "it" needs to be done for our own good and for the good of our neighbors. |

Oh, I'm thinking over reach and one term Presidency. You are probably right. The media, now that they don't have McCain or Palin to kick around anymore (other than worry about who owns what in her wardrobe closet), are beginning to seriously analyze Obama's campaign promises versus the reality of what he can deliver. When the shoe finally drops on those who were infatuated with hope, his popularity ratings will sink like a stone. Meanwhile, I am spending a few days at my son's beachhouse on Cape Cod Bay. It's amazing the number of die-hard fishing nuts out on the cold, cold bay in open CC's at 5 in the morning, looking for the last of the Striper and Bluefish stragglers. Fishing is an addictive disease for some, I guess. Not for me. Eisboch |

Fishing is an addictive disease for some, I guess. Not for me. My Niece (Buzz's Marina Ridge Md) says it is still very busy down there in spite of ball chilling cold. I guess as long as the fishing is good, they will come. Once dawn broke and I could see, I watched them for a while using binnoculars from inside the warm house (the temp outside was 36 degrees). My observations: 1. None of them were catching anything. 2. All of them looked miserable. Eisboch |

Eisboch It's only been in the 40's and 50's the last couple of days in the mid-Bay area, and the catch is real slow. Under the best of circumstances, spring through fall, fishing in the Bay is fairly slow compared to what I was used to enjoying in north Florida and I know south Florida on either coast is much better. The *best* sal****er fishing in this area is down by Virginia Beach, either out in the ocean or where the ocean meets the Bay and there is plenty of structure. There's pretty good winter fishing down by the Chesapeake Bay Bridge Tunnel, and I plan to head down there with a couple of buddies next month. We're just going to hop on a head boat, though. |

I've travelled the Bay Bridge/Tunnel several times over the past couple of years and observed the small fishing boats at or near the pilings. Never could understand the fun they saw in it. There usually was heavy chop resulting in the boats bouncing around and the occupants getting beat up pretty badly. No thanks. |

I can't think of any reason for the couple times I went ice fishing except to "check it out." It checked out cold, and I didn't catch anything. I think about ice fishing whenever I see the crowd at a Bears or Packers game when the temp is -10F. brrrrrrr. --Vic |
