The Drifting Argument Thread

[Gerry Seymour]

That reminds me...There is a business near me that claims that it is Chinese...has it right in the business name over the door...I have never been inside the business and I have never seen the owner, but I have never had any reason to doubt then...well today...I noticed something...that proved to me it was a Chinese owned business....still had the Christmas decorations taped to the window...which, in turn, reminds me of one of the most surreal things (at least to me) that I have seen....when my wife and I were dating I was in Flushing Chinatown on New Years Day, in the morning.... and all of the Chistmas decorations were still up. And on top if this one restartaint entereance, that was devcorated to look very tradtaion al Chinese, there was one of those huge Disney'sesq animatronic Christmas displays, on, and moving while Christmas music was blaring form a speaker somewhere..... no other noise....just the Christmas music....

There was quite a lot of drifting in Gilligan's Island, though very little on the island, itself..

You are right...islands don't drift.... but on occasion islanders have been know to drift

Hey, if I want snow drifts, I'll go to Rochester, thank you very much. From islands, I want to see sugar sand, not sugar snow, damnit!

Point of interest: I've never heard of a "sand drift" - we just call those "dunes". Hmmm?

As an islander myself, I recommend we all listen to Georgia Rep Hank Johnson, who eight years ago warned of the danger of too many people going to one side of an island could cause it to tip over.
