Duane,

Very cute.

If you would only had Gin in the mix you'd be on to something.

Otoh, you're doing the right thing with Vermouth.

But please, this is shaken and c-o-l-d...

Martinis and rolling? You are a bit behind the curve, err roll...

Why, that gets to the very nature of the. err, civilized, beast.

What is Pond Scum?

and Rob,

Such opportunity gone to waste!

Aren't you standing against, not for?

Of course after four of either, you're not standing, as Dorothy  
suggests.

All the best,
Turner

That's a nice website.
Now I don't necessarily agree, but I think a lot of people would add these
to the pond scum list:

Mark,

Just goes to show there is good Scum, and bad Scum...

And it is up to the discerning viewer to decide!

Thanks for the kudos. I seem to think I have enjoyed your TAKS site?  
One and the same?

If you have a fast connection, check out the rolling videos on this  
site, my current web adventure:

All the best,
Turner

Dear Turner, 
Well, the last photo in that series leaves no
question.  It does a dis-service to our sport and
offends my sensibilities. He's clearly giving the
"finger" and exposing the bottoms of his feet like
that is uncouth in many cultures. Whoever that is
should be banned from kayaking forever; if only such a
ban could be enforced!
Sincerely, 
Harvey Golden

  At least the paddle isn't feathered.

Is that me?  I'm pretty sure I'm not that scrawny, and
I think I have more hair than that.
Harvey ;-)

Harvey!

Go for 'wiry'...

Perhaps more 'hair of the dog'? ;-)

Jim, hell no!  It's so warm in New England, I'm still going bare- 
knuckled in the Atlantic, just to cool off. (I think I better get my  
radiator checked)

All the best,
Turner

I think his middle toe is extended as well as his middle finger!
However, that could be a freakish genetic condition.
