How depressing can you get?  In an attempt to bail himself out of what must be hundreds of thousands of dollars-worth of Fast Ferry crappola, the owner of Horseshoe Hospitality, who ran the gift shop and catering on the Fast Ferry, is trying to sell the stuff at auction.  Oyie.

Now, best of luck to the man: he’s one more person that got sold on this project that Mayor Duffy decided to bail out of.  This is a great indication of what happens when projects like this get summarily dumped.  Being a catering company, they do have a number of big-ticket items to get rid of that aren’t “memorabilia,” such as stoves and friers that will doubtless be snapped up by eager small businesses in the community

But calling the hats, tee-shirts and key-chains that bear the name of the Fast Ferry “memorabilia” is just sad, because in less than a decade, most people won’t even remember the Fast Ferry unless they’re swearing about it.
