With the boats covered for winter, we deserve a little fun.

=================================

Speak for yourself Don, the boating season here in SWFL is just
getting into high gear with near perfect weather every day. My kids
flew in from NY last week for the holidays and we enjoyed several nice
excursions to the near by tropical beaches. Water temperature in the
Gulf of Mexico has dropped quite a bit however. It is now down to 73
degrees. That may sound warm to a Canadian but it's downright chilly
compared to mid-summer 90 degrees.

Let's all go to Wayne's house and PARTAY!!!!!

TOGA TOGA TOGA TOGA...

Also Sprach Ron White :
I thought it might be a good time of year to share how to make this site
more enjoyable if all the off topic stuff is ruining it for you. Here is
how I set up my message rules in MS Outlook Express.

This isn't a "site," and anyone clueless enough to use Outlook deserves
all the pain the recieve.

How much would a little shack in Florida cost to buy? Say, just a

There is still a lot of good waterfront property available in SW
Florida. Prices have gone up a lot but are still reasonable compared
to the east coast.

Right on Ron!

I've been doing this for quite sometime with Outlook, and I love it!

One other good method for adding trolls and OT posters, is with that message
highlighted, go to "Message" on the top tool bar, then click "Block Sender".
Outlook will them prompt you to confirm your action, and as an added bonus,
remove ALL messages from that sender...never to be seen again.

I like Outlooks kill file because it permanently deletes the messages...I
absolutely NEVER see them.

The only downside (which is probably true with all kill files) are the
clowns who keep changing their names/emails. The Klass Klown Krause is one
of those idiots...I have about 6 entries for him, but its no big deal.

Later.

I received this email in response to my original post about blocking those
people who post about things other than boats.

Boat building web address is

He's in my kill file, so he must have done something wrong here.

I kill file for feeding the trolls too...perhaps that's his penchant here...

I hear land in Punta Gorda and Port Charlotte is pretty reasonable
right about now...

We drove through last weekend. It's incredible the amount of damage
there.

I can only imagine. I was down in central Florida in the middle of
October. Even there you could see the effects of the storms. Most
large signs were blown out, and many buildings had mild damage.

I hear that some insurance companies are trying to weasel out of
paying storm damage claims. I can only hope that the people effected
have their claims settled quickly and they can get their lives back
together soon.

About three years ago, my wife and I drove through Central Alabama on
our way back home after a visit to friends in New Orleans. I was
amazed that damage from Hurricane Camille (sp?) was still evident
almost forty years after.

On the other hand, I was in Belize last year on a bone fishing trip
and you'd never know a hurricane went throuh there six months
earlier.
