Yep. Good piece

Ok, I'm old, fat, and gray, but I never realized Karen had any sight issues. I conclude she has extra sensory perception. Truly amazing. Go for it guys. Do the Worlds. Just remember, Japan is very expensive. The food is great but it really hits your pocket book. You have one more supporter here.

It's the beer. I drink myself sighted!

Too skinny to drink much beer.

OK Question for you tech-savvy folks: Does anyone know how to save that story to my hard drive? I know, we're antiquated and weren't able to DVR or TiVO it, so if there's a way to dpwnload it from their web site, please let me know. Thanks!

Normally you are blocked from downloading these things by the company with the copyright. However, if you have a movie player (Quiktime for example) you may be able to do a screen capture. What I would try is to put the player in capture mode and then put the movie into full screen mode. You can edit off the front and back ends with the player.

I would think the TV station would burn you a CD.

DollFin · August 16, 2011, 09:45:06 AM

Charles, I already asked and they can't. Bee, I'll try your suggestion. Thanks.

Scott,
Is that you on the boat?

I'm pretty sure I can capture the video so if you have trouble, give me a shout:

CHull, that was on Brant Koepke's boat - the use of which we are very grateful.

Awesome story from the news media.

Clark,

It is me. They let me tag along for the regatta, but I think they mainly wanted me to fix the boats.

Actually we needed a wingman for Jim at the bar!

Although it was great fun watching the gals in the boat shack run for cover when you would head their way with your list of what needed fixing on whichever boat we had that day.
