Bubble mania and other bar tales

Boat project update: As you can see from the pic I recently transformed my boat into a gift-wrapped package and as a result i'm now known down here as the Bubble man. haha. Reminds me of the bubble man from northern exposure. Well b-man is very happy with his contraption so far. I took an ol throwaway spinaker sail, some plastic sheeting, electrical conduit, donated front & back railings and voila - a climate controlled bubble enhancing productivity, moisture levels and temperature :) Now if the black south-easter will just let me keep it.

Last night I also found out that creating such a dry bubble in space quickly attracts lodgers. A mother and her kittens have taken asylum beneath bubble kingdom.

on another tack ;) I've realized something recently amongst people who see themselves as "scientific". They still try & persuade one to see the light of their logical, and superior way. Just like their predecessors, the "religious ones" whom they scorn and laugh at. Ah evolution's convolutions - the movie changes but he plot is still very similar. I find the "church of science" to be quite backwards in many respects. They miss so much of the bigger picture through their copious confidence and stilting cynicism. Yesterday i had an interesting thought in this regard. I wondered if i shouldn't just pick a place in my boat and start working on it. And then I realized that to start haphazardly without first having an adequate understanding of the WHOLE will result in much more work and expanse..uh expense later.

Well friends back to my studies then. May you all keep a positive outlook regardless of the current weather and try to give others confidence in themselves rather than just critizing or giving advice ..however well-intentioned.

back in time
