				"A" hole on the beach (tourists)
			 
 On the beach with my kids, we are snorkling around and I come across a bunch of things I want to show them (different clams crabs, small fish. ect) , one of which was a hermit crab in a old shell.  I take the crab out of its shell to show them the crab itself and how he lives and after a few min's of my kids looking at it and touching it he put it back in the water. 
A few minutes later some jerk comes up up to me and says "Hey!,  I saw the way you were killing those animals and I disagree...you should teach your kids better" 
 
My wife looks up and says to the fellow as he is walking away...its really not a big deal, the crab will find a new home in matter of minutes in a new shell" , then I say, You have no idea what you are talking about dude, It's ONLY A HERMIT CRAB and we didn't even kill it"   
tourists...only one more week!  |

				 | When some goob decides to be hall monitor around me on the sand they usually get a free ticket to swearing 101. It's a reflex. |

				 | I guess people havent learned yet that walking up to someone that you dont know and trying to PUSH your ideals on them . could be very dangerous to their lives ! 
 someone asked me to put out my cigarette at an outdoor concert . I told him if he didnt mind his own freaking business Id put it out in his freaking eye . he said the smoke was unhealthy I told him so was breaking my freaking stones  ! He left mumbling something about cops .  |

				 | Sandy, 
jeez, i bet that was a trying moment indeed.
 
you know i've got the same troop of idiots visiting this beach and you gotta wonder (so often I am going nuts this summer) how these dorks have managed to survive this long. Let alone know- by -now that someone might knock my jaw off "AGAIN" if i don't shut up.
 
unbelievable.
 
albee showed up on the east end the other day    
it's a favorite hang out this time of the year. Nice afternoon breeze. shallow, sandy water, the occasional kook patrolling his assumed domain    and some sweet sunsets.
 
9 more days sandman     you know what happens next, don't cha   |

				 | When i was a kid we'd get hermit crabs and sandwich thier shells between two rocks... then we'd take a cigarrete lighter and warm up the shell (the rocks were so we woudnt burn ourselves) As soon as that hermit crab knew it was getting hot in his shell, it would rocket out of the shell about 3 inches in the air.... One of the funniest memories of my childhood... that and shooting bull frogs 1000 yards into a pond with a waterballoon slingshot, but I digress...   
ah the things i cant wait to teach my kid   
I think i'll go build a potatoe cannon now   |
