       We went out of San Diego, down the Baha, and back up.  I always have my fish filleted by the crew, and put in the deep freeze the same day it's caught.  I lose some meat that way, but it fits in the coolers better.

    Guys, one serious question.
    
    What does a "sustainable' lifestyle mean to you? (In bullet points)
    
    I have to fill in 3 bullet points for this question in my semi annual review paper and I am clueless. if I am to be honest, I would write - NO WORK, but sadly cant write that. Can you help me with some pointers in typical corporate style? For those who dont know, I work in a business consultancy as a business consultant.

       A sustainable lifestyle (for me) would include:
       
       1. Sufficient independent income to meet my financial needs. (Leaving the house and holding down a full-time job is no longer an option for me.)
       
       2. Sufficient creative feedback to keep my writing juices flowing, wonderfully fulfilled by the HubPages community and my fiction writing critique group.
       
       3. Sufficient opportunity to give back to our community, usually as volunteers at the local "cop shop" and through recycling.
       
       4. Sufficient dogs to scratch and wash my face.
       
       5. Sufficient interaction with my family to remind me of my roots without driving me into a psychotic state. (Understand these five are in no particular order, despite the numbers.)
       
       Hope this helps.

    Gawn Fishin, I will continue to build on this system. I think building your computer up is better than buying one off the shelf. The tech hooked me up and did it fast. He saved a lot of stuff from my trashed hard drive and used parts from another computer I had, to increase capacity on this one.
    I read your hub on pan fishing. For some reason could not post a comment.
