Interner and Hooch


Would you like to spend all your free time this summer working in the booming internet blog business? Long, sticky days of shuffling papers, steaming shellfish, and calling payphones all over Hampton Roads? If so, please leave a comment below and, somehow, we'll get back to you. We sure as hell aren't gonna put an email address up here. Did that before. Not again. Ever. May as well just burn our bank account number in the grass on the side of Mt. Trashmore as large as possible.

Search for Storm Troopers


This photo of the Virginia Beach Fishing Pier was taken in the early 1990s as a big, ol' storm was brewing in the Atlantic (please click on it to see it bigger)


Tidewater Log is looking for ANYONE that can identify ANYBODY in this photograph. 

Particularly, THESE people -

                                         Mr. and Mrs. Motorcycle



Mullett Man (in white shirt, against railing) and The Loner (foreground)


                                         Kid Fearless and His Cautious Granny



The Pampered Pooch, its Owner, and Mr. "Yes, Dear"



                                          ....and el Hombre muy Nervioso



Please help. I'm thinking about turning this photo into a mini-series or a puppet show and need everyone's permission before starting...tonight.
