I think I will pass on the seafood at the "choke and puke" at this time. :) Might get some while we are in the Sunshine State. B-) Not a real big fan of seafood anyway. Actually it is more of a value to grill up some filets or have goetta, eggs and biscuits. Never have mastered the art of making gravy. :(

Marina/Ramp: Currently mostly out of Jamestown but spend a lot of time at the other Marinas.

Pre2012-Conley Bottom Mostly, Waitsboro, Alligator I&II ramps, Leesford, Pulaski County Park (when it has water), Grider, State Dock (via boat), and Jamestown are a few places you might find me.

Let them do it, I think it might end up costing them as companies that outsource are going to start losing tax breaks etc. It might make them rethink US employment.

SOme companies are already finding places like Kansas to have a pretty good areas to plan call centers etc and save over outsourcing.

Our company outsourced our Applications Development for IT 6 years ago and just this year renegotiated with a new company. I was involved in the negotiations both times (because I had to) and I can assure you that the issue has nothing to do with Taxes, it is straight up a 70% reduction in salary not to mention the health care costs. Sure you can tax the crap out of companies like ours but the result will be higher prices, simple as that.

Don't misunderstand I hate to see it as much as anyone, but lets not cut off our nose to spit our face! None of us can afford that!!!! ;)
Brrrrr!
