The upside is that this is GOOD for the economy- we can argue about policy until the cows come home, money likes stability and safety, and four more years of the same is good for the markets. It's like playing poker- you're comfortable betting when you know the players at the table, but bring a new guy into the game and nobody will open their wallets.<br />The street may not love obama, but they know him. that counts.<br /><br />I'll bring a cooler of real beer to the show.Dock Six Chronicleshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03597255314638510360noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2802827704617117238.post-42123848901788771902012-11-07T07:41:07.140-05:002012-11-07T07:41:07.140-05:00Sadly wish you had been correct.

The Dems have already filed one lawsuit - whining that voters were discouraged because of lineups. Of course, this in a state where 32% of the state's democrats are in the three counties they are suing over.<br />Is someone channeling Al Gore here?

It is kind of like picking between two flooring options at the builder's showroom and having to settle on the best of the worst.

I took this from Henry's website . . .<br /><br />Located on Frying Pan Island in the Sans Souci area on the coast of Georgian Bay, Henry's is known for its famous fish and chips including battered and pan fried Pickerel dinners.<br /> <br />One of the more unusual aspects of Henry's is that seaplanes fly in throughout the day dropping of hungry tourists so they can get their fill of Henry's fresh pickerel. At lunch and dinner the air is full of seaplanes dropping in from Parry Sound and Midland.<br />A variety of services are also offered at Henry's including, overnight docking with power and fuel for sale. If you are flying in, Henry's is a registered water aerodrome found in the Water Aerodrome Supplement.<br /> <br />Be sure to plan on making it one of your Georgian Bay destinations!al mcgillivrayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01084902596653580773noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2802827704617117238.post-6349771611861002942012-11-06T19:57:01.457-05:002012-11-06T19:57:01.457-05:00lol, with the price of a beer at the Toronto show,...lol, with the price of a beer at the Toronto show, that's a significant wager...you good for it, lol???

How about a beer or three at the Toronto boat show - looser buys.
