or not.
The one topping pizza idea did not work out. The last slice that I bought was the meat-lovers. So, I admit that MLP was better than OTPP.
The fishing is over for another year down here. Overall, the results were tepid at best. Approx 16 whiting and we even ate some - gave some away. One silver and 2 spotted sea trout.
Highlights include 6 manatee in the cut or channel, that was yesterday - a farewell to Fla show.
The dolphin spectacular, 2 weeks ago, 3 dolphins at play in the cut and I had a ring side seat.
It seems that quite a few people are bugging out to-day and to-morrow. Sort of like the changing of the guard. Apparently, things change around here, starting now. A whole new atmosphere comes with the new flush of people.
On the fishing front. Stayed w/ the jig standard. Shrimp or minnow.
We cut the plastic shrimp in half longitudinally. More scent released and the thinner plastic is more flexible.
We didn't even go to cut bait or live shrimp. In fact, no one that I saw used live bait. cocktail shrimp and preserved shrimp but not live.
See, flexible, never happened. Same old, same old.
On the whole, your hands smell less w/ plastic baits and it certainly is less fussy. Simple is good. Not smelly is better.
Except that I let a ladyfish jump all over someone's jacket - not on purpose, lady was flipping around.

Getting Older, getting wiser ????
On the radio, yesterday was Tina Louise's birthday - she is 79. This Tina is ' Ginger ' from Gilligan's Island. OMG, she was pin up girl for TV.
BTW, MaryAnn is 74 and the Professor is 83.
Good fishing to-day, caught a ' red ' , this is a red drum. Simple jig and minnow near the dock and Whamo, the line straightens and the fight was on. Not big but a brawler for sure. The best part or parts
a) dragged the red away from the dock, fought him out and took him back to the dock to land him. b) a witness and picture - Bonus !
Very pleased right now. Last year, the red hit the night before we leave. Now I get two more days to catch another. Neat.
Weather is breaking cloudy but humid. oh well, we'll sweat it out.
In the quality of life poll, Germany finished first and Canada was 4 th.
The Scandinavian countries and Ireland filled out the top ten.
Germany received high marks for social issues e.g. care of the elderly. Canada got panned for other social factors including poverty among the young etc.
Here we go again hear the chanting " We're # 4, we're #4 " Oh well, four beats five.

CDII
No, not 311 CD but 402 in Roman numerals.
From Fla the Bizarre.
Self inflicted flare gun injury damages man's genitals. whoops, my bad
Golf cart returned the wrong way. A community custodial crew reported a missing golf cart. A temporary loan was arranged from a golf cart supplier. the manager of the community centre felt the loaner looked familiar. It was. The thief sold the cart to the company and the company loaned the cart out to the original community centre.
Tow truck driver has his phone dial 911 by mistake and leaves the phone on. During his drug buy, the police listen in and then arrest the driver. Big whoops here too.
Weather too nice to talk about - cheers

401 K.....
I'm Canadian, so 401 K is -- four hundred and one carats to me.
On this day, Mia Farrow is 68 ( OMG even the elves age, I guess )
Mark Spitz is 63 - he aged nine years for every gold medal.
Nicole Kidman admits to using botox
The Sympatico Loop asks ' How much will Britney make in Vegas ? '
Johns Hopkins opens the season to-day in lax v. Siena. This game is the earliest start for Hop. I went to a Feb game somewhere around the 20 th of Fe and froze my patoochies off. We stayed across the street from Homewood and M could hear the crowd screaming.
So that no good deed goes unpunished we're planning to be in Balto for some early March games - weather ????????????? .
The day broke cloudy but the sky is blue and clouds are wispy at best. Hi for to-day 70 mid Fthings.

The quadracentennial
Post # 400
Da Da big whoop , I know
Ohio, southern home of the sasquatch
birthplace of the Chef Boyardi company
Apparently, Salt Fork Reserve ( park ) is reknowned for being the haunt of the sasquatch. This item doesn't appear in the Travel Ohio tour guide. go figure
In talking to Americans, Ontario is mentioned in conjunction w/ travel , fishing, some arts ( plays / musicals ) and being Canada - they don't know that much about us.
What would I say ??? fishing and lakes
pretty safe and fairly clean
Whoops - not much , eh.
but safe and clean is a mighty big place to start.
Down here in Fla - those two are much desired commodities.
No, # 401 is not going to be a barn burner, either.
"Sufficient for the day is the evil thereof " somebody's Brother teacher at Catholic school used to say this. I'm still trying to figure out, if I understand what it means

Its GroundHog Day
Feb 2
I watched the ' prognosticator of prognosticators ' and the ' seer of seers ' from his perch on the arm of the inner circle member. From Gobbler's Nob, early spring shouted Puxatawny Phil / or his interpreter b/c not everyone speaks groundhog-ese.
In Ontario, Wiarton Willy, a close cousin of Phil's, also does the GH Day thing. Except its so cold up there he wears long johns.
And we are watching ' Ground Hog Day ' w/ Bill Murray and Andie McDowell.
And how many chucks of wood can a woodchuck chew if a woodchuck knew it could chew wood.
Think I'm running out of stuff for to-day, duh, yeah
