Please tell me that you, too, like Waterworld! I thought that movie was so much fun.

Can’t believe it was panned as badly as it was!

This former model is getting a bit long in the tooth but having a former model as a living partner can make a total hovel tolerable, at least for awhile.

Pretty cool, but how is it going to do in the next tropical storm or hurricane?

I just enjoyed the story. I don’t spend my life looking for reasons to be offended when it comes to entertainment.

The lagoon/bay is where the ocean goes during a storm.

It looks like a pile of trash on it’s way to the shore.

Glad he had fun building it.

I'm living on a floating home right now and am looking out over the water as I type this.

My house is not this ramshackle Swiss Family Robinson shack that he has, but a purpose built home that is siting on top of plastic encapsulated styrofoam floats. It has all the modern amenities you would expect in any recently built house. The only thing he's got going over me is the weather, as I'm in eastern Tennessee and he's much further south.
