WOW !! Completely surprised that New York has not implemented this law by now !! New Hampshire the " Live Free or Die " state has had this law for many years and I just took it for granted that Ney York would have certainly had it is well! Fisherman well know the situations that arrise on the water with other boaters cutting us off ect. I now bellieve that these situations may be because some boaters just don't know the rules. Classroom lisencing may bring people up to speed on Coast Guard regulated waters, entering and exiting waterways and minimun operating distances/speeds. In short -- this will be a good thing for boaters not bad.

Pete , I will take my Brady Jersey in a xx large !

On the Lam -- In a prior conversation, we spoke about a certain bet ( maybe you can recall a spring brown trout trip and free dinner @ the steak house in Oswego ???? ) if the Patriots and the Giants met in the superbowl. That's a great looking boat you have , can't wait to catch fish on it ! Game on ! Art from New Hampshire P.S. Red Sox Nation is alive and well, and how about them Bruins !!!!!!! LOL-LOL-LOL

Cool story !

Where I live, the option is still up to the operator as is the option of wearing a seat belt or a helmet. -- Live Free or die !

I just received this and agree what a great idea. Some really good ideas here. Christmas 2011 -- Birth of a New Tradition I like it! As the holidays approach, the giant Asian factories are kicking into high gear to provide Americans with monstrous piles of cheaply produced goods -- merchandise that has been produced at the expense of American labor. This year will be different. This year Americans will give the gift of genuine concern for other Americans. There is no longer an excuse that, at gift giving time, nothing can be found that is produced by American hands. Yes there is! It's time to think outside the box, people. Who says a gift needs to fit in a shirt box, wrapped in Chinese produced wrapping paper? Everyone -- yes EVERYONE gets their hair cut. How about gift certificates from your local American hair salon or barber? Gym membership? It's appropriate for all ages who are thinking about some health improvement. Who wouldn't appreciate getting their car detailed? Small, American owned detail shops and car washes would love to sell you a gift certificate or a book of gift certificates. Are you one of those extravagant givers who think nothing of plonking down the Benjamins on a Chinese made flat-screen? Perhaps that grateful gift receiver would like his driveway sealed, or lawn mowed for the summer, or driveway plowed all winter, or games at the local golf course. There are a bazillion owner-run restaurants -- all offering gift certificates. And, if your intended isn't the fancy eatery sort, what about a half dozen breakfasts at the local breakfast joint. Remember, folks this isn't about big National chains -- this is about supporting your home town Americans with their financial lives on the line to keep their doors open. How many people couldn't use an oil change for their car, truck or motorcycle, done at a shop run by the American working guy? Thinking about a heartfelt gift for mom? Mom would LOVE the services of a local cleaning lady for a day. My computer could use a tune-up, and I KNOW I can find some young guy who is struggling to get his repair business up and running. OK, you were looking for something more personal. Local crafts people spin their own wool and knit them into scarves. They make jewelry, and pottery and beautiful wooden boxes. Plan your holiday outings at local, owner operated restaurants and leave your server a nice tip. And, how about going out to see a play or ballet at your hometown theatre. Musicians need love too, so find a venue showcasing local bands. Honestly, people, do you REALLY need to buy another ten thousand Chinese lights for the house? When you buy a five dollar string of light, about fifty cents stays in the community. If you have those kinds of bucks to burn, leave the mailman, trash guy or babysitter a nice BIG tip. You see, Christmas is no longer about draining American pockets so that China can build another glittering city. Christmas is now about caring about US, encouraging American small businesses to keep plugging away to follow their dreams. And, when we care about other Americans, we care about our communities, and the benefits come back to us in ways we couldn't imagine. THIS is the new American Christmas tradition. Forward this to everyone on your mailing list -- post it to discussion groups -- throw up a post on Craigslist in the Rants and Raves section in your city -- send it to the editor of your local paper and radio stations, and TV news departments. This is a revolution of caring about each other, and isn't that what Christmas is about?

I would love to pay for your steak ( on the lam) if you had been daring enough to take my bet a couple of weeks ago. I will say though, it was a great game ! We will stay in touch and I will let you know when I come out to camp in the spring. Dinner wil be on me. Congrats this round goes to the giants !

If that is what a giants fan looks like , You may have just converted me !!!!!!!!

On The Lam--- that sounds fine. I am real suprised that I could not get a bite out of the Bills fans? They all must know they are going to get an all out beat down. And --- OMG --- a Raiders fan out of the woodwork lol-lol-lol .

Go Pats

I hear a lot of jabber but still no - one to take the bait ? Ok, one last offer before I pull rods and head for port, -- A spring Brown trout trip , dinner @ the Steak House & a Fitzpatrick jersey ( Brady going my way ). Looks like your going to be disapointed in your Bills fans - On The Lam - I also wanted to address the comments about the Pats being only an offensive team, I think the Cowboys would beg to differ after Haynesworth lit them up last week. ! The sox on the other hand ---- ----- can't defend them at this point

SOOOO I gues that means you don't want to bet? I will give you the 18-1 but can you say 3 Super Bowl wins ! Ok-OK I will also throw in a free dinner @ the Steak House in Oswego if the Pats loose. " Think of this as changing up lures when nothin's biting " lol

You guys can talk all you want but when it is all said and done the Patriots will be the team you are all talking about ! They should have 0 losses to this point. Bills fans CAN NOT be proud of that victory earlier in the year. Anyone want to take bets on how much the Pats and BB will win by the next time they meet ? Say maybe a spring brown trout trip ?

Thanks, Have you been fishing it?
