I'm a cup-half-full guy so I'm not ready to say this project's bust yet.

Yes, it's good to stay abreast of any new developments.

It's quite titillating when we are on the verge of such a large project, to be implanted right into our own Island community.

Things have been slow on the development front, but the sagging economy is due for an uplift anytime now.

I hope this project doesn't get HEP C from a washed up deadbeat musician. Wait not subtle enough?

In the 60's, I played in a band called "The Phantoms" with David "Kid" Jensen, our lead singer. I thought of him today while posting information about the old Check Club 6 show hosted by "Allseeingeye"'s dad.

I Googled him today and found this.

He became famous....... just like he said he would.

I tried to "listen live" to his show but apparently they are not allowed to broadcast outside the UK. Darn.

The Brits have a rule about broadcasting outside of the country, probably something to do with WW2. I will let you know if my hacker friends know of a work around.

^You two wouldn't last long at Bletchley Park. The popup window asks you to enter your U.K. post code to prove you're a resident. I used London's famous one: WC1

I saw "senior" from Orange Country Choppers cruising around on a hog. A few peeps ran up to him as he was stopped at a crosswalk.

Since he wasn't surrounded by an entourage (which you'd expect if he was just visiting) perhaps he has a home here?

Know it all.

I have seen him months ago and did a double take. I think he is a very good look alike.

^Come to think of it, I saw a guy that looked just like him a while back. Actually, any tubby old dude with a white handlebar 'stache is going to look like Paul Sr.

Upscale real-estate listings. They've been looking for a home on the island, across the water. Islands feel like windowless rooms.

It sounds like Randy Quaid and his wife are considering coming to the Island or possibly the Gulf Islands to evade the Star Whackers.
