 Thanks Elaine.   I post a link to some pictures so that you all can meet
 her once I start getting some scanned.  >>

Ain't Paddlewise wunnerful? 

Thanks to all of you who responded privately wishing me (and my community) 
well -  looks as if you did a good job.  Latest report is that we will be 
getting tropical storm winds this evening, though it is starting to get a wee 
bit windy now.  Did manage to get an early morning soak in the hot tub.  Glad 
I waited before I unplugged it.  I'll be able to get another dip in before it 
really turns bad.  Great for the arthritic pains afflicting some of us baby 
boomers.  My, "I'm too young for this s**t," is not being heard in the right 
quarters!

We all need to concentrate our thoughts/wishes/prayers on the rest of the 
south to central east coast.

BTW, has anyone devised an interesting way of keeping track of who is who on 
this list?  I started by using 3x5 cards and writing bits of info about the 
writer as it was posted, but that got a bit unwieldy.  I have tons of pages 
printed and am trying to think of how to file them.  So far it's Paddlewise 
Miscellaneous and then a few individual files of topics of real interest to 
me.  Is there any way to just print a highlighted portion?  You waste so much 
ink (and these cartridges are expensive) printing the headers, footers, and 
entire clips of previous messages on top of other previous messages.

I bought a scanner, but haven't found anyone to connect it yet, but John's 
message about posting photos made me think of something:  would it be too 
formidably complicated to have a profile/photo file of P'wisers?

The title of this topic (BOMFOG) refers to a feminist dig: i.e. if we have 
the Brotherhood of Man does that mean it's the Fatherhood of God?  How about 
the Siblinghood of Paddlers (SOP)!  Heard a funny thing recently:   "Oh, 
thank Goddess, you're here  (or whatever the rest of it was)!

I supposed I'll get flamed for using the "f" (feminist) word.  I apologize in 
advance and assure you that I really do like men...of course there are a 
few.....!!!
