Dear Readers,

History, humor and hard news—it’s been another busy couple of months at the Loose Cannon one-man media empire. Subscriptions keep growing, though the free people continue to outpace the paying ones by a lot. Alas.

So, today’s message is a sales pitch. Please be like Ginger Clark, who wrote this:

Good writing for one, such a pleasure to read. And a good nose for what’s really interesting. Decided to subscribe when I realized that if I saw Loose Cannon in my in-box it was the first mail I turned to. Only fair that I pay for it. Thanks!

Or Richard Wingfield:

You seem to be fearless. Great stuff.

Or Richard Simpson:

“I have worked in the yachting industry for 45 years. I find that you provide us with excellent insight, oversight and timely notification.

Or Andre Cocquyt:

You are doing an amazing job, flushing out the shenanigans and concisely reporting on them. I canceled my WAPO today and I am spending that money on your Loose Cannon. You deserve it, Bezosky does not!

Or Scott Marquis:

I decided to subscribe because I like your style, your matter-of-fact articles, and your non-allegiance to advertisers. Keep up the good work.

Addison Chan is the author of Bahamas and Cuba cruising guides, plus the Bahamas Land & Sea Facebook Page. He said nice things too:

Peter Swanson is like a dog on a bone when he is working a story. His work has been relied upon by several important publications like the New York Times to shed light on black-box situations.

Speaking of dogs, don’t forget the extra-special bonus available only to paying subscribers. If you come to our world headquarters in Green Cove Springs, Florida, I promise to walk your dog. Who doesn’t like dogs? Maybe, I will use your money to get a boat dog of my own. It’s about time.
