weed police

[old man]

you may have seen an article in the d and c about the people educating us boaters about cleaning weeds and whatnot off our rigs to prevent the spread of invasive species. i ran into one at sodus recently. nice enough people who mean well but are p'in in the wind. i let him pick some crud off my trailer,listened to his schpiel,and left. what a joke. do they know the gobies and zebras got here on frieghters and those guys don't launch where they are working? what do they plan to do about the eagles,herons,geese,ducks,gulls,comorants,turtles,racoons,deer,etc,that go from one body of water to another? what about the carpet on my trailer bunks? how do i clean that? the guy told me to rinse my bilge out with bleach. so chlorine is ok to put in the water? i guess i'd rather have these nut jobs clean my trailer than be out registering the homeless to vote for obama. for the record,i clean my boat everytime i get home,but it's because i paid a lot for it and i try to keep it nice. i also flush my outboard everytime for the same reason. another tidbit: i dug a pond in 1972 and put a few bass in it. today it is choked with millfoil and overun with bluegills. no one ever launched a boat in it. nature does what it pleases.

Treehuggers mean well. They are just misguided.

It won't be long and the end of the world will be here (Dec 21st) and that should really get the wack jobs stirred up.
