That'd be hilarious if I got stuck begging for change on a KAYAK! Ahahaha. :) Yeah, this is just in the harbor so I don't think I'll have to worry about gnar gnar waves or anything epic. But the weather is crummy - not rainy, just overcast. Oh, I'm trying to find more interesting ways to work out other than the gym. I'm hiking about 3-4 days a week but thats just my legs. Seems like kayaking will be good for the upper body - let's see how it goes when I try it once :) NO LESSONS! I'm just renting one and going!! $8 bucks an hour, should be fun. kayakrentals.net

Ken Williams was the guy in charge of Sierra Online along with his wife/punching-bag Roberta Williams. Probably just Jon might remember that.
