Clutching a Quran and refusing a hood, Saddam Hussein went to the gallows
before sunrise Saturday, executed by vengeful countrymen after a
quarter-century of remorseless brutality that killed countless thousands and

Hussien is being murdered by a US puppet government. The Fat Americans

Wow... so a friend and I moved my boat from its old home to the new location
yesterday. Wednesday was nice and sunny, but Thursday started with light fog
that turned into a steady rain. The visibility was very good for distances

Duh! Brain cells don't heal. When they die they stay dead.  Can you say vegetable?

The wreck of the yacht Ouzo (on which 3 sailors died earlier this year) was
today washed up on Hayling Island, in the recent gale.
This may provide additional clues as to what happened, in due course.
The Planet is Full !

According to this morning's Daily Mail, thousands of impoverished boat
owners will now have to sell their boats because of the new EC ruling on red
diesel, which comes into force on Jan 1.
The market is about to plummet, anybody care to sell me their 40-footer for
