Thanks for asking.<BR/><BR/>What we were worried about was if the divers and chief inspectors found that the bridge safety pier system pushed too hard against the bridge's support structure, causing another closure. Down here we don't take anything for granted, as you know Pedro. <BR/><BR/>I'd sure feel better if we had that extra ferry from Aransas Pass down here, just in case ...Samhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06904821424581969401noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10291496.post-1165470049945482622006-12-06T21:40:00.000-08:002006-12-06T21:40:00.000-08:00Ahem, satire served here, folks:Yeah, it was prett...Ahem, satire served here, folks:<BR/><BR/>Yeah, it was pretty bad. Before the barge hit there were all these mean Amazonian women that showed up and they, well heck, kept us hostage. Beer and margs were OK but make one hint about going to a boat to get off the Island, they'd threaten to bust you down a notch. Some were sorta cute but not like Charlie's Angels or anything.<BR/><BR/>It was rough, dude, I'm telling ya. Old Joe tried to fire up his little jon boat 'n' motor but those Amazon gals caught him and made him take off all his clothes and laughed at him fer having such a small motor. Right then we knew we was captive beyond a doubt. <BR/><BR/>It was that bad, man.Samhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06904821424581969401noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10291496.post-1165467517916139162006-12-06T20:58:00.000-08:002006-12-06T20:58:00.000-08:00So I went to the newsite for your channel 5 and wa...So I went to the newsite for your channel 5 and watched the video.....they said everyone on the island were all "held captive"<BR/><BR/>So tell me....what does it feel like to be "held captive?"<BR/><BR/><BR/>LOL~Melissahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12826647754087054603noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10291496.post-1165465764678991422006-12-06T20:29:00.000-08:002006-12-06T20:29:00.000-08:00Oh yeah.

Meanwhile, we have the old bridge, a screwy waterway (literally), and no ferry or ferry landing in place. <BR/><BR/>Oh and when we/they design the new bridge, could they please allow like 300-400 feet for the waterway, to help reduce these smack-ups? /sSamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06904821424581969401noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10291496.post-1165463980753079302006-12-06T19:59:00.000-08:002006-12-06T19:59:00.000-08:00Can we hear the second bridge folks getting fired ...Can we hear the second bridge folks getting fired up?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
