If I found $10 million in cash and other valuables, I'd assume it was
drug money and immediately call the local sheriff's department.

I guess that's just one of the differences between we moderates and you
conservatives.

So a lib is now a moderate.

How funny.

If you caught $80k in a duffle bag....would you report it to the news?

So what have you dropped in the water from your boat or dock?

For me....tools, hardware, a boat brush, a fishing rod/reel, cans of wax and
a set of keys.. I was successful retrieving most of the metal items (if
they were worth it) using a large magnet the marina office had, a large fish
net with extension pole (retrieved the keys with that) or a boat hook.

Never lost my cell phone or expensive sunglasses, although I did put a pair
of fairly decent sunglasses on the hardtop of a friends boat and forgot they
were there until we arrived at his dock. Those glasses were never to be
seen again.

How about you? ;-)

BTW: I admit this is fluff, but who the hell cares....it is boating related
and not OT....eh?


A cheap ($15) pair of binoculars. "I" didn't lose them but they were
lost while I was aboard our friends' party-barge. That's why the good
binoculars stay in the truck !

$ 10 million? I don't know Harry, but I might be able to rationalize the
greater good of keeping one crook's illicit gains out of the hands
of another crook (the government). ;-)

A couple of years ago while crewing on a friends Mirage 33, I got it
into my head to find out why his Scotty anchor light didn't work. This
was the model with the mercury and photoelectric switches and took at
least 4 'D' sized batteries. I took the thing apart at his slip, using
the boat deck as my worktable. I disassembled it, turned around to get
my battery tester as the whole unit rolled off the boat into about 8
feet of water. I found a long boat hook and got everything back but the
mercury switch. A quick trip to the Binnacle and $ 20.00 took care of
that. I cleaned the unit up, installed the new switch and fresh
batteries and it worked perfectly.

Harry,
Smoking? What smoking, I just carry it to help out Boy Scouts if
rubbing their sticks together fails. :-) No, you're right. Especially
after I jumped in at a later date with a pack of cigarettes. Heck at
least that time I didn't have the lighter.

You should have taken that as a sign to quit smoking.

thunder,
Exactly!

Wouldn't it be more likely for the druggies to come after your for
turning the cash in since your face would be all over the news? If they
could track you down, and you did manage to keep it out of the media,
why wouldn't they assume you have it anyway?

Aside from the honesty issue, there is a danger issue. If the druggies
ever determined you were in possession of the cache of cash, you'd have
visitors in the night, and they wouldn't be from the Gang of Tuuk.

Come on Dan, can't you see this boils down (for at least one person here) to
ones political stance (lib vs conservative)?

How black and white some folks lives are.

LOL.
