I think their food quality is quite good, but they are quite a bit of work for the amount of fillets you get. It's no trick to hammer a mess of 'em with a pole spear, which some may find more efficient for getting them on the stringer quickly and going to the next one.

One here. Usually depart out of Matagorda on a friend's boat. Itching for the weather to get more consistent and the water a bit warmer.

I can't think of anybody in the area who's mentioned having dived Lake Conroe. Having fished there, I wouldn't regard it as much of a dive site.

Valid point, Matt. Asbestos is all natural, too... But I still think butter is unfairly demonized. If my wife didn't insist on using that vile crapola in a squeeze bottle, I wouldn't let the stuff in the house.

Agreed the old title was better. But what's unhealthy about butter? It's all natural. Margarine or that stuff in a squeeze bottle made in a lab? That's not food.

I thought this article on the subject from today's New York Times was pretty interesting: http://www.nytimes.com/2005/03/23/politics/23repubs.html?th&emc=th Sorry, but you may have to sign up to read it, if so inclined. I'd cut and paste, but that's a no-no. In a nutshell, the article...

I hope at least one of you guys had an experience comparable to the one described on the last two pages of the third chapter....... Was Cook's Tour any good?

I'll chime in to agree. The point about some wreck divers being uncomfortable with spearfishing discussions is well founded. Also, a lot of spearos aren't trained or qualified to do any wreck diving beyond swimming around on the outside of it. I'd be in that category.

Gotta agree with you, Brandon. Even the Live show was OK when it first got started, although a notch down from Essence. [Forgive me.....] I guess some of us will just have to disagree about whether Emiril deserves to be tasered on a 24/7 basis, but it looks like we've got a small Anthony...

Will, lots of folks share your disdain for Emeril in any form, but your characterization of the Essence show is highly exaggerated. The last time I watched the Essence show -- and it's been a while, given it's current time slot -- there wasn't anything in the way of ingredients used that was...

Actually, Emiril's non-live show, The Essence of Emeril, is pretty good. But it comes on in the middle of the day, so most all anyone sees is that annoying crapola that comes on in the evening. You can like the Essence show and find the Live one as irritating as itching powder on the toilet...

I'd bet the lawyers who were giving Abyss such a hard time had a contingent fee arrangement, were never paid a dime for the hundreds or thousands of hours they spent on the case, and lost every penny they invested in trying to develop it. It wouldn't take many cases like that to land them in...

I think you'd have a more interesting paper if you researched the restraint of trade issues, which affect all of us.

Naw.... Clapton's version of "Little (BP &) Wing" is at least as good as Hendrix'.

Oh, Wise One, I bow before you......

I have one of those Sherwood folding snorkels. It's a piece of garbage. The collapsible tube has ridges on the inside when extended, and that makes it really tough to clear. The inside tube needs to be smooth for it to clear efficiently. Personally, I prefer to store the snorkel on the...

I thought the Hawaiian hand signal was described in this story from a little old lady...... ~~~~~~~~~ The other day I went up to a local Christian bookstore and saw a honk if you love Jesus bumper sticker. I was feeling particularly sassy that day because I had just come from a...

Good to see you over here, Chad; it's always a pleasure to read your stuff over on the spearboard. Hope you stick around.

Nope.

The beef is that vertical price fixing is regarded a lot less tolerantly in Europe than it is in the US. Price competition among retailers is a good thing. You want to complain? Here's the e-mail address for the new complaints for the US Justice Department's Antitrust Division...
