    Shark Attack - Marin County

    Yes on sightings, yes on sometimes getting a vibe… think there was an attack way back in the 50’s if I remember the Shark Attack Files. When asked, I put it in terms of California. You’ve got LA-quantity morsels at the rookeries South, and SF population to the North, Farallon and in the Bay...

    Odd Question for the Board: Any Coin Collectors Here?

    I’m guessing you have loose or otherwise uncertified coins, and delving into grading. Silver vs clad is super-easy… dimes, quarters and up ‘64 or earlier is 90% silver.

    Breathholding contest in La Jolla?

    Last time I saw Santiago was at Playa Hermosa years later. He was enjoying life. That night was some crazy partying and our crew thought it best to scoot from Jaco. Many years have passed since… That’s a great pic for memories! Wonder what happened to next door neighbor Gary… Janet… she was a...

    Shingles Vaccine.. Yay or Nay?

    I had my first last month, and scheduling my 2nd. Had a sore arm and was ‘off’ a day or two. My Mom got shingles years ago, and she’s still dealing with it. My brother-in-law just got it. What they had in common was radiation treatment. Both highly suggested getting the shots.

    What was your first job?

    14/15 over the summer. Dana Point Fuel Dock, ruled by the feisty and classic Reginald Sargent Doll, and his sidekick Doberman Capt’n Bligh. Buddies and I were attendants, and it was good times! Cal, veteran and Native American, was always there to talk story. Between the fishing fleet, yacht...
