on the subject of monkeys on backs...

Some needful reading on aquaculture, something about an asshole in Montana, and in the "Orcas with a bad attitude" department...

I've been reading a blog for awhile now where someone is spending a fortune "fixing" and "updating" their sailboat for cruising. The thing is, nothing really needs to be updated or fixed and the whole makeover is just an exercise in recreational consumerism.
