The United States Constitution does not exist to grant you rights; those rights are inherent within you. Rather it exists to frame a limited government so that those natural rights can be exercised freely.

1984 was a warning, not a guidebook!

It's time more people spoke up with the truth. Every time we let a leftist lie go uncorrected, the commies get stronger.

The Show is exactly that, a Show, people shouldn't take it serious or believe much from the show, accept the jackass running a boat onto rocks at the bug light in Plymouth.

I can only hope one day to be as smart as you Chris.
Fortunately the kids get their smarts from their mother. & the work ethic from me.

Funny, my wife does not like fishing at all, but she does like that show. I like the big guy, the captain of the Hot Tuna, who is always out there with his dog. And I find the harpoon boat/spotter plane interesting.

Interesting to me that the guys in the lead catch what, one fish a week? Not what I was expecting. Though I suppose there are better captains out there who have no interest in being on TV. As someone who knows nohting about this fishery, I like to watch it in small doses. I assume that all of the drama within the boats and between the boats, at least most of it, is scripted to generate interest.

Merchandising & Charters.

One guy who's not really part of the show anymore and catches 2 fish a year, go searching and see what $$ he's getting for a full day !
