My son has his hat color picked out and wants me to pick up the pins this week. (They are already on sale at the local shops).

I have to tell you I will be really looking forward to it. The Obama fever is already in high gear. The attorney general is here now with lots of brand new black suburbans along with a winnebago. Ferries are unloading more black suburbans every day, it is amazing that GM could go BK with all those sales. (I have spoken to a few of the SS folks briefly that made camp near my boat and they are very nice people actually, extremely polite I might ad and happy to be here) But it will get alot worse before it gets better. Oprah will be here for two weeks along with Gates (the black man who was arrested in Cambridge) also a host of other "Black Elite" (they hate that term...but it is so true). Also it is a very strong rumor that Chelsie will be getting married here during that time. It that really happens I will have to go into lock down mode and stay home and make plugs and lures for the derby and not go outside at all.
They will take over this place for two weeks and it will be zoo. I really wish they would vacation elsewhere. I am sure some profit from all this but it will be difficult while he is here. It is extending the summer...usually, the summer ends here around the 17th of Aug. Laborday is dead here everyone has left for school. With him arriving the last 2 weeks of the summer many will stay to be apart of his vacation.
He will be staying at the old Fisher compound (he died in a plane crash with his wife and daughter a few years ago leaving the island.) I think it is called blue heron farm now. I think it rents for 50K a week or so. Must be nice to be able to piss that kind of coin away...while I am fretting over spending "a lot" of money on a new pair of waders for the derby.

The coin that is getting pissed used to yours, mine and ours before Arpil 15th of last year. Either that our they just printed up some. $50k per week will pail in comparison to the bill for the Black Suburabans and their inhabitants being on island for the 2 weeks.

Please remind us when they will be on island so we can stay off.

p.s. Those folks (SS agents that is) are probably the most professional and courtesous people on earth. At least of the "professionals" that they let out in public (if'n you know what I mean). Of course they are checking you out and sizing you up every second they see you.

I signed up at the derby booth at RISSA, # 3434. Came home with the pin and my wife had a bird. I picked out a purple hat at RISSA for my wife and she wore it at the canal yesterday. I was pleased with that turn of events.

Will be there from the 5th to either the 17th or 18th this year.
