"different strokes for different ......."

Hello my friends, long time no hear. Sorry, nothing much happening around here. Just trying to stay cool, half sober, and earn a few shekels for the cruising kitty. The weather here on the Texas Gulf Coast is finally cooling down although we are experiencing one of the worst droughts in memory. In my area, Houston-Galveston, we are 2 feet behind normal for rain. We are  water rationing here. The water levels in most all of the Texas lakes are way down and most rivers are nearly dry. NO!! Its not 2012!! I can hear some of you now! No, its just a periodic weather cycle that has presented itself many times in the past and will eventually fade away only to re-emerge again somewhere down the line like El Nino and La Nina.  However!!!! There is one alternative that some of you might want to contemplate and that is "what ever became of the engineering plans and drawings for the secret weather machine that the Russians stole from Nikola Tesla in the 1930's?" One of the guys on the dock, we call him "Radio Free Darryl" commented just the other day that he heard that Vladimir Putin, the current president and prime minister of Russia, was recently heard commenting about this machine that has now been perfected by the Russians and how he is going use it to retaliate against the George Bush's by screwin' with Texas weather.  Well according to Captain Thirsty another fixture on the dock, this is probably true because, according to Thirsty, we all know that Tesla designed a flying saucer for the Nazis in World War II and they perfected the design near the end of the War as the secret weapon that was going to win the conflict for the Third Reich but  WWII ended before the saucer could be mass produced. Thirsty maintains that these are the facts and he knows because  when he was a secret operative for the super secret NIA he saw the actual captured Nazi films of the saucer flying around blasting the crap out of stuff with its electronic weapons systems. Thirsty thinks that the Russians who confiscated the plans at the end of the War traded them and a few  saucer prototypes and engineering specs to some militant Jihad group in exchange for future interests in Mideast oil , industrial diamond futures,  and free access to Mideast seaports. All this kinda infuriated "Party Bill" the captain of the 32 foot Irwin center cockpit "Love Palace". He doesn't take it out. He just party's on it all the time. Matter of fact, this boat hasn't had a bottom job in eleven or twelve years and  has not been out of the slip for ten or eleven years. Anyways, "Party Bill" maintains that if we would have elected Barry Goldwater as President in 1964, we wouldn't have to deal with all this crap now cause those commieragheadbastards would of been all nuked off the face of the planet and straight to Hell!! Radio Free and Thirsty were pensive for a moment but in a short while they both shook their heads in agreement. Ahhh, Consensus. Take care my friends.
