Minor boating content...
....which makes the post more on topic than most here...
Went once again to the annual Greek Festival at my favorite church, The Greek Orthodox Church of Saint George, in Bethesda. My first foray this year into bloody awful and congested Montgomery County. Food and dance, as usual, were terrific. Sat at a table with a couple from Greece who were here visiting their daughter and her family. They're in the olive oil business in a modest way, and their hobby for the last decade has been to visit as many of the Greek isles as possible on small cruise ships and small private boats they either borrow from friends or charter. Virtually all the isles are steeped in history, ancient and modern. Anyway, the couple has put together what sounds like a terrific Powerpoint presentation on the isles, and promised to send me a copy. Looking forward to it. |

Hopefully you didn't let the cat out of the bag with regards to your feelings about religion - except for Muslims, of course. John H. -- Hope you're having a great day! |

Johnny, you're always looking for a dustup. What's wrong..running out of hobbies that you can do poorly in? |
