scubadaz:- I personally don't condone overfishing of any species,and even if it's a world record size fish, I prefer the tag and release method.Port Stephens has one of the best fishing sanctuary and conservation program's going, though there are still some uncaring idiots out there. But the majority of people,especially the locals, are more than happy to help keep our marine ecology in good shape for future generations to enjoy. C'MON AUSSIE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Scuba:Steve made a mistake & paid in full with his LIFE t bring people a program that kept many on the edge of their seats, if the man is dead its PARTLY because viewer ratings rocketed, which means boiled down "the viewers fault" for loving the danger he put himself in.The man had the balls t put himself in dangerous positions while everyone else kicked back in TV land...I applaud that, great guy, hell of a man *slan claps*

I look back and fondly recall the music of the 70s and 80s. As a small child I recall having a huge crush on Janis Joplin. I had never seen her mind you, but fell in love with her voice. When I had hair in the 80s I had a shoulder length mullet and as a band in high school wore bandana scarves and parachute pants. The girls had bright clothes and leg warmers and swept back hair with Calvin Klein jeans. Mmmm those were the days..I never imagined myself looking back and saying that.

scubadaz - I've always said, If a shark comes into my backyard, I'm gunna have me a dead shark real soon. For the simple reason, I recon that's pretty well what he'd be thinking, if I was in his backyard. That's why I just don't do water. Beside that, fish f@#k in that stuff.... This has to be asking for trouble.

Michelle, Tracie, Cube, McKenna;
I just want to give my blessing to A McKenna and M London and hope they can enjoy time together whether it be at a tea house, pub (such as Rosie McCanns in Santa Cruz or San Jose) or other meeting place of their choice.
Maritime--I am enjoying Marc Resch's book. I am now reading about the great engineering projects built over the last 5 or 6 centuries. The Netherlands is like California only the opposite when it comes to water abundance/scarcity. I think Cali could learn from Holland about how to manage water and engineer waterways according to our scarcity and drought conditions.
Joe--Why do I think I can take on more than is physically possible for me? That's how I set myself up for failure and deepen my depression. I know you are a musician and not a psychiatrist, but I know you have been through so much in life and may have some idea. I can only wish Tuesdays Child my best wishes and hope she and her children are well. Also, don't go the road alone....please accept help along the way.

Quote for the day 'Time is an illusion, lunchtime doubly so.' Worth thinking about...
scubadaz: That was an awesome vid... I love the way even the rhythm guys can play better than most average lead guys.
Thanks Roo...I now know what sort of Spider to avoid. All of them! Must be hard being an arachnophobe in Oz..

Slanshroom, The Boleskine House sounds pretty interesting. There are plenty of places in Scotland, Ireland, and England that would be great for paranormal research purposes. Ireland and Scotland however would also be fun for me to trace my ancestral roots. I have traced my family on my father's side back to the 1500s and they were mostly centralized in Ireland with a few in Scotland.
I'd just like to go and walk where they walked and try to picture things as they may have been when my family lived there which at it's most recent was the early 1900's. Like I said I'm a bit of a history geek but history is so much more interesting when it involves people you are related to. I'd like to trace my mother's family back that far but it's been pretty rough so far. My dad's side was fairly ethnocentric, my mom's side has a big mix and it doesn't help almost everyone on my mom's side having large families. Oh well.
Unfortunately right now with all of my other projects I don't have time for that one. Though a few of my projects should be finished this year. Or at least to a point where they take less time. Then I can dedicate time to doing things more for enjoyment, such as tracing my lineage and learning the guitar. Work before pleasure they say I just wish more of my work was pleasure.

They say the happiest days in life are the day you buy a boat and the day you sell it! Well, here's a good boat story!!
Joe and John were identical twins.
Joe owned an old dilapidated boat and kept pretty much to himself.
One day he rented out his boat to a group from out-of-state who sank it!
Joe spent all day trying to salvage as much stuff as he could and was out of touch all that day and most of the evening.
Therefore, Joe did not know that his brother John's wife had died suddenly that day.
When Joe got back on shore he went into town to pick up a few things at the grocery store. A kind old neighbor woman mistook him for John and said, "I'm so sorry for your loss. You must feel terrible."
Joe, thinking she was talking about his boat said, "Hell, no! Fact is, I'm sort of glad to be rid of her. She was a rotten old thing from the beginning. Her bottom was all shriveled up and she smelled like an old dead fish.
She was always holding water. She had a bad crack in the back and a pretty big hole in the front, too.
Everytime I used her, her hole got bigger and she leaked like crazy.
I guess what finally finished her off was when I rented her to those four guys who were looking for a good time.
I warned them that she wasn't very good and smelled bad. But they wanted her anyway. The darn fools tried to get in her all at one time and she split right up the middle!"
The old woman fainted!

so anyways...
I loved Steve Irwin. You could see the passion he had for wildlife in everything he did. He wanted to make the world as passionate about critters as he was, and he made learning fun. He was a great dude and his life was cut way to short. His job could be dangerous, but lots of jobs are dangerous. He died way to young. I think he would have been the same guy if he was working for free. He was born to learn everything he could about animals and teach as many people as he could reach. It was in his blood. Any dangerous job has it's risks, and people take them every day to try to make the world a better place. Any one second lapse of judgment could kill any one of us at any time. Fux sake man, bad things happen to good people. He deserved to die a happy old man.
