Back in the 1800's the Tate's Watch Company of Massachusetts wanted to produce other products, and since they already made the cases for watches, they used them to produce compasses. The new compasses were so bad that people often ended up in Canada or Mexico rather than California. This, of course, is the origin of the expression, ... "He who has a Tate's is lost!"

WHERE DID THE WHITE MAN GO WRONG? Indian Chief, "Two Eagles," was asked by a white government official, "You have observed the white man for 90 years. You've seen his wars and his technological advances. You've seen his progress, and the damage he's done." The Chief nodded in agreement. The official continued, "Considering all these events, in your opinion, where did the white man go wrong?" The Chief stared at the government official for over a minute and then calmly replied. "When white man find land, Indians running it. No taxes, No debt, Plenty buffalo, Plenty beaver, Clean Water; Women did all the work, Medicine man free. Indian man spend all day hunting and fishing; All night having sex." Then the chief leaned back and smiled. "Only white man dumb enough to think he can improve system like that.

People seen or caught doing the shark fin thing should be given Like 4 Like......broken arms and legs or amputated ......let them live a horrible lingering existence or die as the sharks do...... OK extreme but so is the original act.....and who would dare after the first penalty was upheld ?? Dave

Thanks Paul D.....but even so the shear fact that it still goes on puts it in the Blue fin Tuna and Japans dolphin/whale slaughter category for me. How can men in todays fragile world swim in the blood of so many slaughtered creatures when there is no need for the food. I cannot comprehend this level of unnecessary bloodshed. Dave

This is an absolute DISGRACE TO HUMANITY! SOMEONE PLEASE WAKE UP! PLEASE Sign and send on

Whatever.... there appears to be a 4.4m aluminium boat and fishing gear up for Auction.........some one is bound to snap it up... again !! this could go on for a very long time........please end it here!!

Only if you turn the sound off Terry...... !! Massive fish Dave

A doctor in Dublin wanted to get off work and go fishing, so he approached his assistant. 'Murphy, I am going fishing tomorrow and don't want to close the clinic. I want you to take care of the clinic and take care of all me patients'. 'Yes, sir!' answers Murphy. The doctor goes fishing and returns the following day and asks: ' So, Murphy, how was your day?' Murphy told him that he took care of three patients. 'The first one had a headache so he did, so I gave him Paracetamol..' 'Bravo Murphy lad, and the second one?' asks the doctor. 'The second one had indigestion and I gave him Gaviscon, so I did sir' says Murphy. 'Bravo, bravo! You're good at this and what about the third one?' asks the doctor. 'Sir the third one; well I was sitting here and suddenly the door flies open and a young gorgeous woman borsts in so she does. Like bolt outta the blue, she tears off her clothes, taking off everyting including her bra and her panties and lies down on the table, spreading her legs and shouts: 'HELP ME for the love of St Patrick! For five years I have not seen any man!'' 'Tunderin' lard Jesus Murphy, what did you do?' asks the doctor. 'I put drops in her eyes.'

Brian Thanks for the piccy........makes it easier to understand......I must have a good look at your trailer and see if it will help on mine........having rollers at the back...I am not sure if it will cause the boat to incline more before the bow settling back on the trailer making keel/bow alignment problems worse.....pity I cant have some rollers on loan to try........
