hey John, did you get a trade on your boat?


Yeah, they gave me $8800 for it. I didn't feel too badly.

What year was it?

Did I miss a Herringbrain bon mot? I kept a weather eye out for him on
the Bay yesterday, bouncing around in his new boat, but for some reason
there weren't many of us "out there," Might have had something to do
with the three foot breaking waves and northerly winds. It was a pretty
day, though.

Calm in the marina:

I read it to mean that he accepted that he was an a***** ...... while
complaining that "some other a-hole"..would get use of whatever.
Is that how you read it?

Some. I found some breaking fish about two miles south of the marina,
and tossed a tiny Clark's spoon at them. Turned out to be what we
Yankees called "snapper blues." Small bluefish. Nice fighters on my my
little five foot rod and 8# test line (with a 6" light wire leader). Did
catch a nice keeper blue which will be the guest of honor at dinner tonight.

Also caught a skate. I really don't enjoy catching them though they tug
like crazy. They are large and a pain in the ass to release properly.

Had to keep the tabs down while running. You can see their impact
on the boat wake...on the starboard and port side. That bag in the lower
corner...squid...a reliable fish snack food around here.

Hey...finally, Herring admits what is obvious.

Makes perfect sense...




But not true. There are more than a handful of "Republicans" or folks I
suspect are Republicans here. to whom I have never applied or implied
the "asshole" descriptor. SW Tom and Eisboch, I believe, are
Republican-leaning. I've never referred to them as assholes or implied
they were.

Herring, obviously, thinks everyone on his side of the political fence
is an asshole. He probably shaves in front of one of those prism mirrors.

It's good Herring shot his wad in the Army. Had he held a real-world job
in which intelligence and critical thinking were required, he'd never
would have risen higher than meter maid.

1997.

Hmmm - not bad.

How many hours on the engine?

No, that wasn't bad at all.

If I remember correctly you were thinking you'd get 5 out of it..



I was thinking of getting it off my hands for $5K, so I was surprised at
the offer.
