"Not again..."

you are confusing with the petunias.

It's been a while... G

BTW, the book was far better than the movie. Do you agree?

I watched about 20 minutes of the movie and turned it off. It was horrible.
The books are great. BTW, Towel Day is May 25.

You should be burned at the stake for such herecy (sp?). The radio series
was the original, and even today stands the test of time.

Cool Thanks. I have been to that site many times, but did not think of it
for this case. Last night I do not think it said marine life rescue. It
seems that this is a rather large TFR for a fish. :-)

Anyway, I saw these whales in the river on the news last night. Did not
think they would make a TFR for that. Oh well.


It's a "security" issue.

Yeah. They want to protect crowds from twisted pieces of falling aluminum.

The original purpose of TFRs was for things like this -- fires, media
circuses, etc., where there might be a lot of official air traffic or
way too many sightseers in the air. You get a whole bunch of planes in
a constricted area where all the pilots are looking at the ground
instead of for each other, and there will be trouble. Hence, the TFR.

Well, to be fair, they want to protect them from falling fiberglass and
carbon fiber, and wood and fabric, and steel and fabric ,,,,,, ALSO !!! g

Spock: "They like you very much, but they are not the hell "your" whales."
Dr. Gillian Taylor: "I suppose they told you that."
Spock: "The hell they did."

I flew over the area yesterday late afternoon and didn't see any
evidence of the whales: no flotilla of rescue boats, nuthin'. Later
in the weekend I'll try again.

I was taking my little nephew to disneyland, but i decided to
play a mean trick. i pulled up next to an old, burned down
warehouse. "Oh no," i said. "Disneyland burned down." He started
crying, and i was about to tell him it was all a joke and drive
to the real disneyland, but it was getting kinda late.
