In other news, winnfabs has announced they plan to propose a law limiting wind speeds on Winni to 10 mph during the day and 5 mph at night.
I think that bill should also include limiting rough water.How about limiting knuckleheads who get in over their heads in too small a boat.Oh that's right,that would include all the canoes and kayaks that account for most of the boating deaths each year.Actually,I have a FEAR of small boats capsizing so I believe these should not be allowed on bodies of water.
So sorry,I couldn't resist.
