are you at Ector County Coliseum?
If so, I'm surprised since I always thought you could fit at least 5132 people in there: The Ector County Coliseum is a 5,131 seat multi-purpose arena in Odessa, Texas. It is home to the Odessa Roughnecks (Indoor Football League), the Odessa Jackalopes (Central Hockey League), the Sand Hills Rodeo, and the biennial Permian Basin International Oil Show. |

are you at Ratliff Stadium, home of the Odessa Permian Panthers?
...who, by the way, should invest in spelling lessons since they spelled "Abilene" wrong (it's in Texas no less!!!) at the bottom of their website as "Ablene". I have not found any reference to Abilene as Ablene, or any other place named Ablene. |

nick's got it...
i'm just about finished reading "friday night lights;" fascinating book written in 1989 by h. g. bissinger. i've loosely followed the network television series of the same name and understand that at one time a movie was made based on the book. Ratliff Stadium - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (and that appears to be an "i" in between the "b" and "l" in the MOJO website - perilously close, though...)

I eye the i, unc. Thanks for opening my eyes to the i. And my most sincere apologies to the fighting Permian Panther Mojos.
I'm not familiar with that series, nor the book. I'll check it out since you said it's fascinating. Please give me a few moments to find my next hiding spot. |

Zook, do you mean the "Great Lakes", or some great lakes? Reason I ask is I'm not too far from Medford Lakes which, as unc so poignantly guessed, is in NJ where I am.
This weird thing I'm standing next to is one of those superlative things that I have been known to favor in past hidings. |

I know you said not landlocked, but I figured that maybe, just maybe, the great lakes could count as "open water". I meant THE Great Lakes.Superior, Michigan, Huron, Erie and Ontario.
However... NJ New Joisy (so I hear it being spoken) is the area, huh... How about: the chemical coast.... Bayway Refinery
