Some Chicago Boyz know each other from student days at the University of Chicago. Others are Chicago boys in spirit. The blog name is also intended as a good-humored gesture of admiration for distinguished Chicago School economists and fellow travelers.

A sea cow!
Mais oui, mon cher Incog. Une vache de mer. C’est incroyable!
I had a 21′ sailboat in the early 1980s and for 3 or 4 years I was with it on weekends.
I took up residence in (southwest) Forida only a couple years before this and was not acquainted with the manatee. The first time I saw one in the wild was in a fresh wind and two foot seas about a quarter mile off Cayo Costa. It was about fifty yards from me and I had only a glimpse of it between waves and was amazed. Not knowing what I saw I truly thought I might have been halucinating.
dragons and beasties, oh my!
Any manatees left without blade marks on their backs?
That reminds me — what happened to http://www.tastymanatees.com/ ?
Maybe the Manatee Liberation Front got to him.
