That's funny because I thought I was smart enough to know that when dealing with things the size of 8.9 earthquakes and the whole Northern half of the Pacific Ocean that predicting surge or wave height at a given location is far from a precise science.

Honestly I did not realize you went out Greg, but these things don't always occur as predicted.

Case and point is Santa Cruz which was supposedly dropped from the initial Tsunami warning due to the fact the models said they would not have huge issues there.

My take is one of these days this coast is really going to get it. Especially up at Malibu, where everything is right on the sand.

I thought about going Friday because I thought it might be fun to be out there but backed out because of the unpredictability of the situation.

I don't wear slippers, but I guess that means when it comes to "sexy" you got me

Seriously..what difference does it make if someone went out kayak fishing? Why would anyone care? Guys catch fish in all different types of conditions. Enough of the girl talk on the internet and time to fish...

for the record, the group of guys that went out that day were united and made informed, calculated decisions. granted, there was unpredictability with this situation, but, in the end, thankfully, it was as we expected... mild

there are those who would consider kayak fishing foolish and extreme risk-taking in and of itself...

and by the way, i thought we looked pretty damn sexy out there...
