Today I feel really good about becoming US citizen. Title: Re: I think this sums it up.... Post by: Blake on January 20, 2009, 09:58:11 PM Funny, I've always felt good about being a U.S. citizen. Didn't need a president to make me feel good about the best country in the world. Not looking to start any bitterness here, but truly "hope" that this guy is as good as he makes himself out to be. I'm not expecting miracles, but since the deck is fully stacked in his corner (ie. both the House/Senate) he better be able to deliver on his "change America" mantra.
We'll see. I do wish him the best and would always do so for the leader of our country, no matter what party he belongs to. None of this "he's not my president" bull****. Anyways, I digress. Sorry to rant. [beer] Later Title: Re: I think this sums it up.... Post by: rinkratrob on January 20, 2009, 10:30:40 PM agreed, i have always been proud to be an American. the USA is an idea, not people and states. i think former pres carter's speech writer put it best..." its time to stop crying, and time to start sweating". love that speech.
its a new day! and the sharks won a snoozer...and had a 43 yr old in the line up....thats one for the older fellas. [beer] okay so to serious subjects....anyone organizing a group ride....well after this next rain? Title: Re: I think this sums it up....

Him winning the nomination didn't get me teared up. Him winning the election didn't get me teared up. Him getting sworn in didn't get me teared up. But I just read he was sworn in with Lincoln's bible and I got me all verklempt ;D [beer] Title: Re: I think this sums it up....

The amount of money it would take to change all the signage, letterheads, and other crap made it too cost prohibitive. Title: Re: I think this sums it up.... Post by: desmoquattro on January 21, 2009, 11:19:27 AM It didn't happen. The amount of money it would take to change all the signage, letterheads, and other crap made it too cost prohibitive. It didn't pass (http://smartvoter.org/2008/11/04/ca/sf/prop/R/): 101,376 / 30.25% Yes votes ...... 233,733 / 69.75% No votes The Chronicle editorialized against it (not surprising), and in the end a lot of people had an issue with naming anything in our city after Bush.

Not to rain on the parade, but... It's fine to wish our new president well. It's fine to talk about how excited you are. But when you start comparing the merits of the new guy over the old guy, it's politics. So let's steer clear of any Bush-bashing. It's clearly political, and that's not allowed. And if you think you're about to post something that's right up against the line of politics, odds are it's over the line from someone else. </mod hat> Title: Re: I think this sums it up.... Post by: ROBsS4R on January 21, 2009, 12:24:11 PM I know this forum does not allow Politics but the local Forums I thought had a little of leeway ??? Oh well. We prob just start hating each other in any case ;D And to recap yesterday for myself I was very proud to be an American as well [thumbsup] [bacon] [bow_down] Title: Re: I think this sums it up.... Post by: mostrobelle on January 21, 2009, 12:31:35 PM Oh well. We prob just start hating each other in any case ;D ...but I already hate all of you. ;D Title: Re: I think this sums it up....

Sorry, I'm not on board the band wagon, I'm a Libertarian. I'm never on board. Title: Re: I think this sums it up.... Post by: MendoDave on January 24, 2009, 03:27:17 AM I just want him to raise the Abalone Take limit. ;D
What do you mean that's not his job? Now I hate him too.... Stupid not on board president Best Homer Simpson voice Title: Re: I think this sums it up.... Post by: desmoquattro on January 24, 2009, 09:37:41 AM I just want him to raise the Abalone Take limit. ;D Man, that brings back memories...used to be 4 when I was a kid. Now I think it's 3 right? All the abalone people see are tiny compared to those days. And they're apparently deeper and harder to get. Title: Re: I think this sums it up.... Post by: Desmostro on January 24, 2009, 11:45:18 AM That's what she said.
And they're apparently deeper and harder to get. sorry, Is being annoying still allowed? Title: Re: I think this sums it up.... Post by: MendoDave on January 24, 2009, 01:11:51 PM Not that hard to get, but at 3 per day it's almost not worth getting in the water.
Title: Re: I think this sums it up.... Post by: ROBsS4R on January 24, 2009, 04:02:41 PM I just want him to raise the Abalone Take limit. ;D Best Homer Simpson voice Ehh 3 is hard enough for me to get right now =( What we do is we stay the weekend. We have a huge abalone feast the first day. At least 6 to 9 Abs depending on the dive group that day and then we take another limit home the following day for the family [thumbsup] Personally I like the Sea Urchin but as you probably know Abalone and Urchin don't like each other so they normally are not near each other to harvest. Title: Re: I think this sums it up.... Post by: MendoDave on January 24, 2009, 04:17:09 PM Well if you come up to the Mendo coast to get some Abs, Let me Know.
Title: Re: I think this sums it up.... Post by: ROBsS4R on January 24, 2009, 04:37:12 PM Well if you come up to the Mendo coast to get some Abs, Let me Know. Sure thing. I will let you know next time we head out that way [drink] Title: Re: I think this sums it up....

Title: Re: I think this sums it up.... Post by: Desmostro on January 24, 2009, 11:35:13 PM This sounds so v cool [thumbsup]
I have to get into this. I love diving. butt: Abalone web site: (http://abalonediving.com/?q=node/9) "*Note: If you are caught poaching for abalone there are hefty penalty fines and jail time. Plus you may get tagged by a spear gun from some crazed diver. Fellow divers hate poachers, its a personal thing..." nice. [thumbsup] Sure thing. I will let you know next time we head out that way [drink] ok I'm getting informed. April... punch card... wet suit√ mask, snorkel, fins√ Anywhere around SF worth going? Title: Re: I think this sums it up.... Post by: ROBsS4R on January 25, 2009, 12:41:45 AM The rangers sit on the cliffs with binoculars. You can't even hand another a Abalone to a Diver to put in his Tube. You need a weight belt, Ab Iron, Ab Gauge, and Dive Tube also of course =) I much prefer Scuba Diving these days. Man I have seen some Huge Abalone that were temping to take but of course I am a honest person ;) Title: Re: I think this sums it up....

[thumbsup] Title: Re: I think this sums it up.... Post by: Desmostro on January 25, 2009, 06:02:40 PM How deep are they? The last time I went free diving was in the Bahamas. 100' down was still 75F ! ha!
I can't even imagine how cold it is here at 20'. Arse cold I'm sure. Brief dips at deep depth would be ok. I don't have a dry suit or anything. I'm sure it used to be done nekid.

You can't really dive in a dry suit. Its to Buoyant but a 7.5mm Wetsuit will keep you pretty warm. Well back in the day you use to Rock Pick them... Well that was way before my time. The more picked over the site the deeper you need to dive but in general figure to dive between 10 and 20 feet. That's the east part though. The visibility is normally really bad so what you do is stick your hand in front of you and dive down as hard as you can as you slam on the brakes as soon as you see the bottom... but then you think its the bottom but its another 6 feet of seaweed and crap growing on the rocks. then you stick you head into holes hoping to find a Ab =) Title: Re: I think this sums it up....
