Well, I'll miss it. I'd post a comment about the folks that have an attitude but I'm gonna have a beer instead.

Jody & I put our lives into the magazine, TV show, events and lifestyle for over 15 years. It is with very heavy hearts that we have to make this announcement."

It and you will be missed. Hope you got paid and it wasn't an earnout. Can't believe non-competes will hold. Gonna be back in another form?

I honestly don't know who Eric Stone is, but the other parts sound good to me. Sounds like it beats wearing a monkey suit on a boat.

Saw Eric play at Marina Cay in Feb. Good fun. Nothing more, nothing less. BTW, like your point of view re location attire!

Cheers!

Point taken. I guess if we all thought the same way this would be a pretty boring rock to live on. My apologies for being snappish to the fellow with the tie.

Re: Latts and Atts: Something happened

Well, for my 0.02 worth, I will support any comeback of Bob Bitchin, for unless you sat and talked with him, Jody and the rest of the crew, you have no idea. Having been around the water for more years than i can tell you, and having read the stories he can tell, I for one, will offer what ever support i can give.

Keep fighting Bob,
