This boat did not do well during Hurricane Ida. I took this picture on Highway 315 somewhere south of Houma, which was piled high with trash and ruined furniture that still hadn't been picked up. I suppose somebody will come along eventually for it.

Only if the glass is half-full. Likely as not in this case the glass has a leak…. Hopefully it does not extent to the boat’s fuel tanks…
As someone whose convinced me not to completely despise Manchin, any comments on today's Rolling Stone reporting? (free yahoo link)

As much as I admire Kaine & have worn my "highbrow" pin & shirt proudly), he seems blinded by his optimism sometimes.
Manchin likes to act as if he's still governing; he doesn't make a good senator & deprecates the very people he represents. I'd like to see West Virginia's coal miners established in jobs like the solar panels program in Virginia, not relegated to black-lung disease deaths or unemployment.
And Sinema can pack her big Pharma moneybags & clothing choices & just go elsewhere. Hopefully, her replacement will function as an actual Democrat & Mark Kelly - Kelley? forgot to check) won't keep attending shindigs on Manchin's houseboat.
If nothing else the WH looks like they've decided the best thing to do is to go publicly shade free on Manchin, which considering previous times is probably for the best

Is this some sort of allegory? Because it looks like an allegory.
It's the cover of a Louisiana history book.
Could be the phone book cover of the Tidewater of the Chesapeake, aussi.
Indeed! Abandoned boats is a huge issue in the Chesapeake Bay including one very large barge.
Do you mean Ever Forward? Yeah, one big barge. Heh.
Clearly a Ship of State. But which one??
Virginia? The governor had over 1,000 bills left to sign by midnight tonight because he wasted time appearing on Fox news and other photo ops instead of actually ahem governing.
See what the pangolin is doing here?

It's carrying covid. Right into your backyard.
Not necessarily a valid supposition. I read a story a while back about a contractor to the city of NY which does nothing but retrieve abandoned boats from the river, some afloat and others not.
