Rain=FUN
 

Suzanne is having pre-labor contractions, so we are staying clear of mid-day
heat and sun. Heading out to the boat at 5:30, we heard about a very heavy rain
cell in NJ. We could already see it's effects, but we had friends sailing with
us and we all wanted to go. 30 minutes into the sail, the wind built to about
30 knots and it started to drizzle. I sent Suzanne below. Liz stayed on deck
with me, gradually spilling the main. Somehow I guessed that the wind was maxed
out and it was, so we pinched upwind close to Stepping Stone and I watched a
big tug coming our way to starboard. Then the rain hit. You know the kind (Not
you, Scotty). We couldn't see 20 feet in front of us and the rain was stinging.
My only worry was the position of the tug, so I tacked and took her downwind.
The rain cleared pretty quickly of course...and the main point is that it felt
GREAT! Temps dropped 20 degrees and stayed cool while we continued to sail.
Suprisingly there was still a lot of wind and we sailed for a while before
returning to the slip. A great mini sail and the BBQ was great as well!!!!
Hope you all got out there today!

Sounds like a fun sail. We often get hit by squalls here in Galveston
bay. Here you have to be careful as some are prone to violent
downbursts.

I waited for heavy air, but it never built much beyond 30 knots. I quickly
furled up the genoa and waited for worse. With Suzanne aboard I was glad it was
mostly heavy rain. Still, it was fun and we kept the wind even when it dried
out.

Bet you babie is born this Wensday an 11:42 AM.

Lets get a pole going if it's legal.

What are you going to name him/her?


I hope he comes before the due date of Sept. 9th. We have a few good names, but
will wait until we see him.

Scotty Potti is such a royal asshole that he's now bashing unborn kids. As you
can see, Mooron, Scotty really needs your help as he's a real class act.

Dead weight finds it's own level.

Hit a nerve, ****Head?

Gosh! Talkin' to me, fag face? You're such a loser. And your boat, which is a
POS, reflects how little you've accomplished. Scum sailing aboard scum designed
by scum to sell to scum. And then it was used, unwanted scum and you still
bought it! You know it and so does everyone else. A nerve? LOL! You're caught
again and again. Even Mooron came to your rescue!

Bwahahahahahaha! There's your "nerve!"

RB

Guess so.

I think it was very nice of you. Scotty was getting beat up again and needed
help. I just watched your carefully polite debate with him. Mooron, you are no
nomad here. I'm the only one who makes no treaties or alliances here. You're a
notch below Katey. Go pick some flowers, boy!

No, there was a lot of lightening and Liz thought there was a strike on the
water close to us. But that happens a lot on the LIS.

RB

Any day now....the nursery is complete and the crib cost more than Scotty's
boat and the bassenette is more seaworthy by a mile.

You spent $5,000 on a crib? Hope ****Head Jr. likes it.

Scotty

Now you're jealous because Mooron talked to me??? Hoo boy, what a
whacko!

I think you will find my debates are generally polite..... unless it's with

I picked flowers for my mom this morning.... Daisys for the breakfast
table.... before reporting to the job site. Finished a day's work in 3
hours. Now I am contemplating which of the farm chores to tackle first.

BTW - Nomad means wanderer.... not loner Bob!

I believe his last comment was referring to me as arrogant.... I of course
took it as a compliment but I doubt that is what Scotty had intended!

I agree on both counts and I was simply and acurately stating that it was nice
of you to rescue Scotty Potti...or attempt it. The two of you are still
incapable of taking me on all the same.

Nomad: 2: Noun
2 : an individual who roams about aimlessly


Sorry, Mooron. My usage was correct. Nomad also refers to a "people" but you
should know the full meaning of a word before challenging your betters, sir.
Try again, but take a deep breath 1st. You've been swallowing your feet along
with Scotty Potti's.

Ooooooh. Ya gonna take that? Calling someone arrogant is hardly the height of
insults. You guys keep playing patty-cake. It's good form, really.

Nomadic poeple do not wander about aimlessly... and that is not the correct
definition... but you know that now don't you.

Nomad, Nomads, Nomadic..... neither entails "aimless" in the definition
Bob.

The two of us???? Oh Please! Since when?

Bob... I've managed to trounce you mercilessly, single-handed... on more
than one occasion. To date you have failed in every attempt to do likewise
to me. I'm certain that this fact is in large part responsible for your
continued courtesy and acquiescence to me.

Bob thinks everyone needs rescuing. Thats comes from always counting
on others to do what you should do for yourself. It's engraved in his
brain.

I'm sure he expects the Coast Guard to come to his rescue if he calls
on them.

It's a fine day Bob..... I'm feeling well and sharp as a razor. Is the

Why thank You Bob..... you've effectively shot yourself in the foot with
minimal goading on my part.

Well obviously you need either to awaken your sense of comprehension or slip
on the beer goggles and claim a Drunk Defense... because, sure as
shootin'... Nomad means what I said it does Bob!

And your original use to infer "solitary" & "lone" was so far off the mark
as to be... Oh Heck here's what you said:

Mooron, you are no nomad here. I'm the only one who makes no treaties or
alliances here

Now really Bob... even you can see how silly that sounds now can't you?


Heh.. when are you going to start a thread about night sailing..... you
know.. impart some of your experience, knowledge and offer some pointers.
Maybe some Navigation Threads as well.

I had a station wagon called a Nomad many years ago. Is that what you guys are
on about? It was great for cruising aimlessly.

When I was in high school, I used to drive my father's 56 Ford
convertable... white with red highlights. We used to cruise over to
the Valley... Ventura Blvd. That was fun. It was a great car, but
finally something broke off inside the engine and it banged so loud
my father gave it away. I had a 62 Buick for a while, but it wasn't
nearly so much fun.
