| Well Joe, that is close...let's say that yours IS a "sea story" in combination with the navy jibes about skyhooks, buckets of steam, mail buoy watch and the key to the bow door...but generically the difference between a fairy tale and a sea story is....a fairy tale starts out "Once upon a time..." a... |

| Thanks for that info...I drove through about four years ago the last time we visited Cape Cod...the entrance to the NAS had changed and as I recall you now pass right by the entrance to the Davisville SeaBee entrance. We didn't stop to visit but just drove around to see what was left. Not sure wheth... |

| Interesting story Ken, but I can top your Marine story...I graduated from Syracuse in 1966 before the lottery...got a job at NYS DOT working on LBJ's Interstate Defense highways. DOT put in for a deferment for me before I got my draft notice...draft notice came...July of 1967. The first time since W... |

| Ernie...you say <b>"It really has no impact on your games." </b> Does that mean we CAN still register and end games and make campaign result comments EVEN IF Moondoggie shows as players number 3,4,5,etc...?? Or should we just be patient and wait until you can fix it so that our game records won't be... |
