Thanks for your #30 above .. interesting (and sad) stuff.

Btw, sounds like ol' Fred would make for some dandy chum.

I am happy it pleased you.

As for Fred, he was known as Fred the WonderDog because he was reputed to be able to walk, talk, and chew gum - and, wonder of wonders, he could do any two at the same time.

I suspect some AgencyPerson would cite any boat using Fred for chum due to the noxious slick visible for miles downstream.
