Hold on to your hat!!!!

That's open to debate. There is actually more evidence to support Global COOLING than global warming. Fluctuations are guaranteed and the ice age and things like that prove that the earth can undergo major weather changes even without human interference. I'm not saying that it's definitely not real, just that nobody can actually prove it is not just part of a cycle. The earth goes through cycles on time scales that are way longer than our lifetime so who is to say that this isn't just another one of those cycles??? Still, cut back your pollution and waste. It has to be good for mother earth somehow.

 

Gotcha

 

And you're voting for Sarah Palin, right?

 

There must have been a typo with a decimal point missing, 306 knots equals 352.138511 mph which even in a category 5 hurricane is unheard of.

Im thinking it meant to say 30.6 knots.

 

For the first time I can honestly say that I really don't want either candidate to be president. In a country full of talented and intelligent people, our choices are limited to this.......I still haven't decided who is the lesser evil so I'm not sure who I'm voting for.

 

polotics

this is what i think of polotics. when voting write on the ballott saying they all suck and vote for blank (your name).

 

Interesting...exactly how i felt about Bush vs. Kerry 4 years ago. "Clown to the left of me, Joker on the right" to quote an old song.

 

hey Charlie,

these crazy wind speeds are being brought in from the coastal wind stations. There seems to be some kind of bug showing up now and again. Not sure if it on our end or the weather station. I'll look into it.

 

I dont think anyone every really voted for a V.P, cause the only good their for is making fun of, besides this is a surf forum not CNN

 

Ooookaaay. . .

So who would be better for the surf industry and surfers in general, McCain, or Obama? Is that not a surf question? At least as much as ''what's your ride (car)'' or ''Non-surf related photos.'' A forum is a forum is a forum. The Palin comment was based upon the notion that the earth is actually undergoing global cooling, not warming- which is what Palin espouses. Six of one and half dozen of another.

 

Palin is hot. I think we can all agree to that.

 

correct me if i'm wrong... The offshore water temperatures stay warmer the closer it gets to winter because the water is deeper as oppose to the water closer to shore where you are surfing. THe water close to shore is shallow so it cools faster. So when the offshore bouy says its 67degrees and its the middle of october, the water closer to shore is probably in the lower 60's and too cold for just a springsuit?

it was 85 degrees outside(mid to high 60's in the water) the other day...u could have been bareback

 

ya i went bearback thursday in vb for about an hour or so i didnt know the water was mid 60's though. It's have been more comfortable in a springsuit though for sure. I was shivering the whole car ride home.

 

I bet neither one of them will do anything for our surf community, i get what you where sayin, but I hate election year because business drops(dramatically) and I just get sick of politics and besides don't we have some sick surf on the way, we should be figuring ways out of work instead

 

I would say. . .

Obama would be good for surfers and bodyboarders in general since he spent many of his days in Hawaii bodyboarding and bodysurfing at Sandy Beach. Also, his agenda is surfer friendly: i.e. Ecological protectionism, Public beach accessibility, Calm and steady OHana mindset (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ohana), fostering alternative energy resources, lower taxes since I don't make anywhere near $250k per year, universal health care- one of my five meds costs in excess of $450 for a 90 day supply- and best of all, no more soldiers have to die in Iraq and we'll save 10 billion a month in the treasury. Skin cancer history keeps McCain out of the water at the wave pool in Tempe, AZ, so it's safe to say ''John don't surf.''

Cheers
