    There is some concern recently that I may need/deserve/enjoy a good 
flogging. Give me a few days to explore the bondage sites and I'll get back 
to you on this question.

with retailers beyond just handing out club applications and notices for the 
retailers to have around.>>

    A partnership with local responsible retailers can only benefit our 
sport. The groups that I'm involved with are taking this approach although 
the retailers can only afford to allocate a limited amount of resources to 
this effort. The degree to which club members make their associations clear 
will determine the level of acceptance and cooperation from local retailers. 
As always money talks.

<< One does not have to live in New Hampshire to have the spirit of "Live 
Free or Die" which I believe is your state's motto, Jed.>>

    Or as a friend, fellow Paddlewiser and local club member prefers to 
paraphrase:
LIVE, FREEZE OR DIE !!

    I can almost smell the new boat, now what I need is warm water so I can 
stay wet behind the ears.  Take care all! Thank goodness for indoor pools 
during the coldest weather.
