Why do the same spammers try over and over to post bullshit on my blog?
I am certain it’s not just mine. Do they (you) not notice that it never gets seen by anyone else? I don’t even see it until I feel like looking at (my unnamed) spam catcher and then I just hit delete all.
Morons, go ahead keep wasting your time because it’s funny.

I went to see this movie last night and the movie was ok and I understand all the hype behind it only because that’s what they do these days. Hype the living shit out of every movie that comes out.
What I don’t understand is this Heath Ledger as the Joker hype. His role was fine but his character while of course important to the movie did not make the movie. I thought with all the Heath hype it would have or should have brought the movie over the top.
Let’s compare it to the first Batman movie where Jack Nicholson as the Joker literally made that movie. Without him playing the role the way he did the Batman franchise probably would never had seen a second sunrise.
Anybody else see The Dark Knight? Am I missing something here or did they pump Heath Ledger’s role up because he kicked it? I think so. Jack still rules as the Joker to me.

Blues fans!! I have have 4 pictures of blues greats for sale. These professionally framed pictures are from the original artist and/or photographer.
Shown below are two signed prints of Muddy Waters and John Lee Hooker from famed photographer Paul Natkin. Paul Natkin has photographed virtually every blues musician in the world. His reputation with these legends have even allowed him to photograph them lounging by a poolside in tuxedos and for album covers.
The other two pics of Stevie Ray Vaughan and Eric Clapton are from world famous artist Bradford Salamon or better known just as Bradford. I am sure you have seen his work on posters around the world. But I assure these are not posters, they are in fact limited edition lithographs personally signed and comes with a certificate of authenticity.
I personally obtained all framed pieces from the artist themselves and guarantee all signatures are theirs.
All framed art listed here will sell for $250 each if you would like to make a bulk offer please email me at “Steve at Waterpup dot com” use the @ sign for “at” and a period for the “dot” or leave a comment below for me to contact you.

Met up with fellow poker player and fisherman Warren and his buddy Chris at 11:00pm Tues, loaded the boat, fueled up, hit the water about 12:30AM.
Got a fatty scoop of squid from LBBC and made tracks for the squid grounds at Catalina. The ride over had some nice sized rollers coming through and a little bumpy at times but overall wasn’t too bad. Something did go bump in the night but we were only doing 10MPH so all was good with the outdrive and we kept going.
We rounded the east end, no moon very dark shrouded in a haze, wind in the face and swell coming in. No radar, wasn’t comfy and didn’t have mommy with me to make me feel comfortable so we headed to back to the front to wait for light.
On the front side at light we had a steady pick of as many calicos you wanted. Virtually every cast. But that wasn’t what we wanted to we headed to the back side again. Due to weather and my mommy not being there I decided against the west end and went east.
Once again we made the turn expecting to see many other boats lined up. All we saw was the Phantom at the Vs and down the line a row of squid boats and a couple of PBers off Silver Canyon. I decided to stop at a spot at the Vs where I had caught the first YT and WSB on my current boat but Tino had other plans. As I made tracks to the spot he apparently had the same idea and jetted inside himself. It looked like he was pulling anchor on the outside of the kelp and probably had already planned to be there, no harm as we pulled in on the other side of the kelp.
First bait out I had a bite that went zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzPOW. Nice fish that wasn’t stopping on my 30lb rig. Next up was a shovelnose, mud marlin, another mud marlin, MOVE. By this time the Phantom had moved too so I know that spot wasn’t working out.
We head down to Salsipuedes and work our way back for a lot of nothing, back to the front for more nothing. Head home at 2:00pm in a lot of wind and chop. In bed at 7:00Pm
