Friday Evening

Was set in Dogpatch once again. This time I was armed with Seasick Steve. A bluesman who is known for playing homemade guitars usually with three strings or less, he is generally his own percussion section as well.

I had a good time in the booth:)

After rehearsal I went home to watch the latest Whale Wars: Hippies Fail. Last night is when the Ady Gil was hit by a harpoon ship and torn in half. Yep, it got hit after a full day of harassing the Japanese ships.

The ever tough Peter Hammersomething John Wayned the radio communications with the Nisshan Maru II as he stated that they will defend the lives of those in the water. You hippies have rotted butter and inflatable boats, what in the world are you going to do after trying to shut down and cause damage to the Japanese fleet?

Oh yeah, you could grow a set and pursue effective methods maybe? You've had several seasons now in which you go down there and fail to stop anything. The Japanese have adapted to your tactics and are now learning that just a little offense will completely put the hippies in disarray. All they have to do is follow one of your ships and it's game over. You run back to port!

Ah, I hope you don't learn anything. It would spoil my enjoyment:)

The ever alert looking Paul Watson jumped onto the publicity bandwagon and drove the wheels off of it. He was hoping for a such a situation so he could raise the debate into a larger arena. My guess is that people will see his ineffective tactics, his stoner crews, and acts that border on terrorism.
