November 5, 2018 — So, tomorrow’s Election Day and here’s hoping our democratic process has provided you with some suitable candidates worthy of your vote. If not, you can always write in the FishOn staff, based solely on our simple dual campaign promises:
“If nominated, we will hide. If elected, we will demand a recount.”
We think it’s what our Founding Fathers and Mothers had in mind all along – self-imposed term limits.
We also have our own method for choosing candidates: They should be strong advocates of the commercial fishing industry, fans of baseball and they should have sent us presents on our birthday and Christmas.
Shuffling through the pile last weekend, and gotta say: It’s not looking great for this crop of cheapskates.
But that’s us. Y’all should head out and vote. If nothing else, it’s an hour away from work. Unless you live in Chicago, where you can turn it into a full-time occupation.
The new Navy slogan should be “Shhhhhhh”
The U.S. Navy last December adopted the 10th slogan in the storied history of the military service (and its a collected advertising agencies). The slogan is “America’s Navy, Forged by the Sea.” Thank God the French Navy already had taken “We Surrender, Take Our Ship” out of the running.
Our Navy made some news last week when it announced it will expand areas in which it limits its use of sonar and explosives off the East Coast as a means of helping protect the imperiled right whales. It’s doing the same in the Gulf of Mexico to help protect the Bryde’s whale.
