My wife and I were walking along the beach the other day and came across the fine example of sand castle construction. It was built by a father-daughter team who seemed to be having a blast. Take a look:
I give them an “A” for creativity and an “A+” for execution. That ball on the top is a nice touch.
Bon dia.
Titan is a giant male cat that hangs out at Zeerover’s fisherman’s wharf in Savaneta, Aruba. I’ve seen him around from time to time. He’s not very friendly to people nor does he take kindly to other cats. You see, when they land the fish, he gets first crack at the guts and whatever else drops off the filet knife. Just look at him:
He does like to perch on high, preferably aboard a vehicle. Please, don’t mess with Titan, or he’ll take finger!
Bon dia.
Moomba Beach Bar suffered a catastrophic failure of their giant palapa hut. The roof came crashing down. According to newspaper reports, no one was seriously injured. They’re back in business now. This time they have a tubular frame with fabric overhead. Take a look:
The breeze has settled a bit lately. No doubt more is on the way because Aruba is the windy island. Every day is a bad hair day. At the same time, the sun shines, the water is warm, and it’s hard to find nicer beaches, most of which have bars like this only a few steps away.
Bon dia!
The Bent Page 
Capsize?
Today’s Investor’s Business Daily reports that the American citizens took more in aid than they paid in taxes. Imagine that! No, it’s not very hard to imagine this. The current administration spends like fools, taxes like imbeciles, and implements policies that destroy personal responsibility and initiative.
So, the United States of America is about to capsize. (For those who are not nautically inclined, when a ship capsizes, it essentially flips over and becomes inoperable. It usually sinks promptly.) The once “land of the free, home of the brave” is now the “land of the handout, home of the dependent.” This is absolutely pathetic for a once proud nation to find itself reeling in the whirlpool of socialism. Like the ship that loses stability, the US will soon find itself drowning, sinking ever deeper into an economic melt-down. Through it all, the government wonks will be grabbing more power, issuing decrees, and attacking those who actually produce.
The crew of the Good Ship America needs to mutiny. The people who actually pay those taxes need to rise up on their moronic leaders and take the wheel. Once they have control of the wheelhouse, they need to run the pumps and discharge the bilge of its bilious bickering boneheads who don’t have a clue how to steer in waters either calm or rough. If not, well, they’ll all go down with ship.
