Yay, Four day weekend!!!!! NOT! Long story, but plans that were made back during the early parts of summer (say three months back) have been hulled below the waterline by Bossman. IF, I don't use that lever of mine and tell him to FOADIAF. He "generously, gave us" Monday the fourth off, (without pay,,,) but … Continue reading This too shall pass, right?

And the world turns on
I'm actually in a fairly good mood today. Took Blue Jean to Laurel Lake and put a few miles on. Several broad reaches across wide open water: quarter mile and half mile types. Then the sea-doos and yayhoos started running amok, and while I am well used to the waves, what I could never … Continue reading And the world turns on
Mi vida loca

I never lost sight of the other paddler, but he was running a home built Night Heron Design which Nick Schade came up … Continue reading Follow up on Oofff!!!
sumpin to lead into a positive weekend
What if, the adage of "If its from Government, its all bullshit" is more true than you understand and far BIGGER than you ever suspected? I refer you to the post by the indomitable Sarah Hoyt so you have something to work with. It's on the long side for some of my readers, but I … Continue reading sumpin to lead into a positive weekend
Post easter thinks
Looking around the spheres today, I see a growing line of thinking that revolves around financial collapse. Not wanting to fall into the vacuum of a think tank, but knowing that we have been swirling that drain for over a decade (and it started BEFORE 2008, the QE to infinity just put the spurs … Continue reading Post easter thinks
