Do they pay Anthony Burgess for the rights to their band name?

Is this just a way to get his mail delivered to his cell, since An Post won’t come to his house any more?

Growing up, we had a game called “fight the tide” where we would build sand castles in the intertidal zone with a stick in the peak of the castle. Last stick standing wins a chocolate bar.

Ebb is the state of the tide going out, Flow is coming in.

Intertidal is an interesting thought, but isn’t it already taken by the area that is covered by high tide and exposed at low.

I was wondering about the point where it is halfway between high and low, whether it is ebbing or flowing. Slack is more the high or low point where it switches from ebbing to flowing.

Isn’t that more like Slack-tide when a high or low tide turns and becomes still (Stau like traffic?)

Median-Tide?

Mean Tide?

I grew up on the coast, so I never really thought about tides just that that was the way it was. Then I married someone from a landlocked country and every time we drive over the bridge over the cove near our house I comment when the tide is high or low since they are used to lakes, and I’m never quite sure what to say when it’s in the middle.

As good a selection as any

It’s usually that way here too, but yesterday, for whatever reason, there was no stress.

Cat politics. I don’t even pretend to understand it.
