Gardening day tithe....

Have to put up a temporary fence around the garden because of deer. Anyone got an unused pack of wolves I could borrow to patrol the backyard?

fill remaining volume with Pussers Blue Label (ok, technically 3 shots, but after one of these you forget how to count)

I hope we'll agree that rules #1 and 2 are incontrovertible.

I had one of them but couldn't get on with it, the mechanism kept sticking in the top down position.

Haven't seen Crash yet but will seek it out after these two recommendations. The King's Speech however was the dogs dangly bits - superb film, superb acting, superb story and the choice of Beethoven for the music that accompanied the climactic scene was inspired. If you haven't seen this yet, then please do [&o]

I think I agree that it's the overall best of my recent list. I don't think any can top Crash in the "powerful" or "intensity" category. If you can appreciate movies, even if the topic is not your most enjoyable..... go watch Crash! It's been over 12 hours now, and as I reflect on several of the scenes my heart rate is going up. I really like very emotional and intense movies. [&o]

Just made a trip back to Blockbuster video (with the top down in the Boxster [;)]) and brought home No Country for Old Men.

Dang, John, you did it to me again! I just spent about 30 minutes looking at Harris' Place and Little Harbour on JVD. [:D]

My lovely bride's best friend from high school lives in Florida and is married to a former professional boat captain. They visited with us in the Turks last year and we have very tentative plans for next year or the year after that for a 3 couple bareboat charter in the BVI for a week. I'm sure to try out your recipe recommendation, but I also hope to sample the original one day. [8D]

Morning tithe [&o]

While it is a crime against the gaming gods to not have AE on every box in the house, I have found that even they (the gaming gods) have to bow before she who must be obyed. Since this lap top is hers there will be no game of mine located on it. So that means that untill I can rig a way to sit at my desk and prop my knee up I am grounded and forced to use her lap top. At least I get my forum fix in [;)] After being with her for 7 years I never knew that she could be worse than the nurse in "One flew over the cuckoo's nest"

save me

I can feel your pain all the way down here!

Mike, a good boat captain is a necessity. Somebody who knows his times and distances and who has a sense of adventure. Somebody who knows those little out-of-the-way gunkholes where the real Island stuff happens. You are gonna have a ball !!

Don't care much for Big Jost, but Little Jost is right across from Cane Garden Bay; 45 minutes with the rags up. Little Jost is kinda dinky, there's just room for Harris's Place and Sydney's Peace and Love, but then Harris shot Sydney several years ago and got away with it, so who knows how things are shaking down. Harris put a dock out and it's a stop for the Bomba Charger. Big, gnarly, diesel passenger boat. Bad juju for close anchored sailboats. I think he screwed the pooch on that one, because everybody anchors deep in over by Sydney's now.

Ther's a flat, sandy spot in the South part of the channel between Little Jost and Big Jost where you can wander about at ankle depth and find keeper conchs (at least you used to could). And there's this teensy little spot of island between Little Jost and that flat spot that has just space and grass to host a Vodau sacrifice (at least it used to did).

I seriously, seriously, like the BVIs better than the the USVIs .You are gonna have a seriously frikkin ball !!

Ciao. John
