My hovercraft is not full of eels.

Okay, it's my kayak. And it never was full of eels.

Due to the extended wet weather in this part of the world, combined with chilly temperatures that discourage getting into the water (in spite of evidence that I have done, last year), my kayak was an interesting shade of green.

With judicious use of a spray bottle filled with bleach, and a Dobie Pad, my kayak is white again. If the weather holds out, I think I'll take a paddle in the bay tomorrow.

Hm. I'm trying to get an image of that. Maybe two strokes of the paddle, then she feels around with her white cane; then another couple of strokes...

I don't keep them here. I just get them as I need them at the nearest sushi house.

BTW: RS&tL is one of my favourite albums. I have it on LP and CD.

My canoe was full of people with inner ear problems. Then it wasn't.
