@Rick
My diving is done in warmer waters. Do not like cold waters nor a dry suit.Only used them when I was teaching and had to qual new divers in a old quary. So cold you could see the thermoclines and when you swam thru them it felt like a brain freeze. You can not call that fun.
We will be going up to Glacier Park atthe end of the month. Plan on riding thru the park.
Foot Note:
For those who do not know what a thermocline is. In the picture link you can see the fish at the top but the divers are blurry. They are in the thermo. I have seen temp change 20 degrees with in a foot of depth.

Victim’s Brother To MSNBC: Families Not Here To Talk About Gun Control
Michael Eric Dyson, guest host on MSNBC’s Ed Show: Do you think that there should be a push for tighter gun laws given the horror that you just endured and how it has impacted you personally? Do you feel compelled to push for tighter gun laws?
Jordan Ghawi, brother of victim Jessica Ghawi: Here’s the thing, we can try to politicize this and make some sort of polarizing debate and make this a tenet of the election, but that’s not what we’re here to do right now. We’re here to celebrate the lives of the victims that have been lost.
If somebody wants to do harm to somebody, they’re going to find a way to do it. Whether it be with a weapon, such as a rifle or whether it be with any sort of means we should actually start to think about why people are doing this. And the reason why they’re doing this is because they want their names out there.
Yep Obamacare will save us all!!
Nearly one in 10 employers to drop health coverage
About one in 10 employers plan to drop health coverage when key provisions of the new health care law kick in less than two years from now, according to a survey to be released Tuesday by the consulting company Deloitte.
Nine percent of companies said they expect to stop offering coverage to their workers in the next one to three years, the Wall Street Journal reported. Around 81 percent said they would continue providing benefits and 10 percent said they weren’t sure.
@Ratboy
I bet Michael did not expect that answer.
TOO BAD Michael, so sad.
See everybody! Americans are smarter than the left gives them credit for!!
Gun Sales Reportedly Spike Following Aurora Theater Shooting Tragedy
The Denver Post reports that background checks for people wanting to buy guns in Colorado spiked by more than 41 percent since the Aurora, Colo., movie theater shooting that left 12 people dead and dozens more injured. Coloradan firearms instructors say they’ve seen increased interest in the training programs required for a concealed-carry permit.
ratboy:: hopefully, i am black enough for you my friend…my own people will not accept me as black because of my conservative beliefs but hey, if the black leadership were really interested in helping our community they would be making deals with any party willing to work with them but thats another story…In todays Post:: the rise in minimum wages here in NY will cost 43,000 jobs…????
d.d.:: sounds like Code Pink would be a great Fox expose`…another aspect of this is probably the lack of jewish women in Code Pink, since all of the possible ensueing conflicts up ahead are for a secure Israel. I have always thought that Soros was an Anti_Semetic…
@

Liberalism in the black community has been and is a miserable failure. I have black friends and when I would tell them I am a conservative they would look at me like I had two heads. They would think hey your a pretty good guy how could you be one of them. The lib. media real did a number on opinion in the black community. The only hope for the inner city black community is to break the chains of liberalism.
@d.d.
It is with deep regret that I must report that I clicked on the Code Pink link. Never again!
Black folks continue to support Dem. politicians and things in the inner city keeping getting worse. Black folks won’t even give our side a chance to see if we could do better. It is fustrating.

Boss scolded us for the tingling up our legs.
@Ratboy,
Just enjoying the little thunderstorm we got this morning. It’s too little and too late, but very welcome.
Poor little Coloma, Michigan! Every year they have a Glad Peach festival, the “glad” being for the beautiful gladiolas that bloom thereabouts, but this year it’s going to have to be simply the Glad festival, ’cause there sure as hell ain’t no peaches. The moral is: Beware the early spring.

Oh well! I cant help it that the left has a bunch of tools spewing their message! Matthews admits that he tingles, Schultz rants and raves then crys when he loses in Wisc, Sharpton spends his unbiased time on marches and other causes. In the words of Popeye – “It am what it am!”
@Dana,
How do you explain to someone that anybody who wants to make you dependent on them is not your friend?

I always look forward to Coloma peaches because I have never had any finer! I found a small basket of ugly looking ones last week but that is all there is! Paw Paw got hit hard as did Lawton with their grape crops ans the Bangor apples might be few and far between too!
