How do you "never" drink from the tank?

I don't drink from my tank. I carry bottled water for drinking,
use
the tank water for everything else.


Poor guy. We drink beer and rum.


while sailing?

"If there's no wind, row."

Par for the course...he's always done that so why would it change? I
suggested the plastic doggie bag things a long time ago to Eric the Dumb and
then to Elaine, but no one ever did anything about it...we have three poles
with dispensers set up at the YV and everyone with a dog uses them
religiously.....but then, there are a lot of kids running around and actual
real grass and picnic tables to eat on, so maybe that's the difference?

If we're down on the beach he'll wade in without prompt, but he has never
shown any desire to leap off the boat, except to leap into the dinght
(which
can be a very exciting event...and sometimes damp...)but hey, he doesn't
chase rabbits or squirrels either...he hasn't forgotten that cocker
spaniels
are evil devils, though...the other day we were walking by a yard where a
young one ran up to the fence and he peed on it....he will never forget
Reggie....

Nor will anyone on A-dock. He apparently left a calling card on the steps
just above the ramp and it never got cleaned off. I don't know why Don
bothered to take him to the dog walk area. He never made it, as far as I
could tell.

Actual;;ly, it was a scientific experiment.....the smoke and horse
thing.....our baseline was a totally sober horse and rider subjected to a
placebo of corn silk.....the horse ate it....

Yes, it's dangerous stuff. Supposedly it tastes good to dogs, too.

... Wouldn't know about acid but I do know that horses get really weird
when you blow pot smoke up their nostrils....

Do tell. Was this in a research report that you read?


We have gallon jugs of water that we fill at home or at the dock on the
boat so we don't drink from the tank....even with chlorine drops in it, i
still do not trust it and it is usually lukewarm...yech.....

If you treat the system right, it'll be fine. We have a water filter for
drinking water, but the water out of the tank is no different from the tap
water. Is the U.S. turning into one of those 3rd world countries where you
can't drink the water?


My dog does not think we're weird...he thinks we're God.....

We had Chesapeakes for years... they're too smart and too strong-willed to
fall for that. Our current dog is a pound hound and I'm not sure of his
religious beliefs... he is learning, though.

Did you get a gov't grant for this research? Was Mooron on the staff?

A horse is kind of big for this experiment, what if it had the opposite
effect... instead of mellowing out, he got agitated and uncontrollable?

Long ago there was a tribe of Indians in coastal North Carolina called
the Tuscarora... they were basically native Rasta-men, only with violent
tempers. They were very warlike and defeated all the other tribes and at
one point were doing a good job of chasing out the colonists. So
marijuana is not always a harbinger of peace love & weird music.

We made the same suggestion, to no avail. At least Reggie will be staying
in FL one of these years. My prediction is that Don and Gwen won't be up
next summer. Their boat has been for sale for two years now, and I suspect
they'll just leave it on the jackstands with a 'for sale' sign hanging.
Gwen had knee surgery this summer and can barely walk, let along make the
long march to the end of A-dock. I feel sorry for her.

She was beginning to show the fatigue of the fight this year after the
latest round of surgery. She oft complained about her beautiful home in
Florida, just sitting there with its wonderfully therapeutic pool and
beautiful view, while she was "stuck in Michigan." Of course she didn't say
much while Charley, Ivan, and Frances were paying their visits to her
"lovely home." I think they'll stay in FL this next summer, but I've been
wrong before about that.

and their boat has been for sale in and off doe
long time now....no one wants that hulking thing...you ever been on it
when it's been up on full tilt? you have to use radar to navigate because
the
helm can't se what's out front...

It's such an ugly, bulbous waste of fiberglass. He's dropped the price
twice, but still no tire kickers. I think they'll have to let it go at a
fraction of its market value to get rid of it. I would.

A humungous old Silverton at the old marina....was the joke of the dock
because the people who own it aren't really physically fit enough to handle
it, so it's become a cottage at the end of the dock.....thing sucks gas
worse than anything and is unmanageable...has so much freeboard that the
wind whips it around when they're backing up...the problem is, the gas dock
is right behind them and they've hit it several times. They used to have
their now deceased son come over to back it out for them.....

A forty foot Silverton express cruiser from the late 80s. Truly one of the
most butt-ugly powerboats ever built, not to mention a terrible performer.
The design was from that school that optimized interior volume at the
expense of everything else: aesthetics, performance, economy of operation.
It's a real truck of a boat, no offense to your Peterbilt.

I like Reggie, actually. Someone wrote a book called something like *No Bad
Dogs.* I think that's untrue, as I've experienced a few that needed a
timely dispatch and interment, but Reggie isn't one of 'em. Annoying, yes,
but mostly it's not his fault. You know what I'm saying, doncha?
