Bad Moon A rising
 
Here the moon just rose, now its blood red,full as can be. The warm
seabreeze is picking up smartly. I have another jigger of martini in
the boat.. skipper has his jacket on and is barking and I'm heading out
for a nite sail.

Have fun drooling in your pillow Robbie.

Bu bye.

Hey, first Joe says he doesn't like just sailing locally...and now
after we go for a short sail he's out TWICE!!! Ummmm...okay, sure....we
all believe that!
Only fools sail and drink, especially at night. Such bad seamanship.
But then you're not actually sailing anywhere and now you'll have to
respond to this much later so it looks like you left! At least it's
safe to drink, so you're only half lying.
And dude, what's with your spelling. It smacks of a total lack of
education. Those are not typo's. They are the spelling and ill diction
of a man who never made it beyond the 5th grade.
But it's true...we aren't sailing tonight. Our daysail was just fine
and we just watched the Neil Young documentary on our 10 foot wide
screen. Got one of those, Joe...or maybe you hate music and cinema
along with daysailing...!

Good lord....I haven't stomped anyone so easily since Mooron admitted
the Nordica workmanship was shoddy on the Nordica website! Will any of
you EVER learn?

My mind CONTAINS your minds. Tell 'em Bob Crantz. They need
help...perhaps Joe most of all.

Two goldfish in a fishbowl are talking. The first one says, "Sure there must
be a god". The second one says, "How do you know?" The first one
replies,"Who do you think feeds us?".

RB, your mind is far too powerful for most here to even conceive of, let
alone challenge and defeat. With Joe, it is like an ant against a Saturn 5
rocket. The ant can never realize the size of the rocket in its entirety or
its total blast power. Its size and power extend beyond the ant's universe.
Instead RB, be gentle and kind.

Bob Crantz, I have no boat!

Haven't I always?
I'm simply trying to show Joe that his "boat for tomorrow" is a bit of
a waste. Okay...more than a bit.

Your lack of seamanship is showing. You seem to have no knowledge of
the Traditional "Rum Ration" supplied the sailors on Sailing Ships for
years. Better men than you & I have been drinking and sailing for many,
many years. A sign of good seamanship!

Nutsy,

You better check your shoes. You're not stomping anyone. You must be
stomping in Dog ****.

P/S It has been over 100 degrees F in Texas. Night sailing in that kind
of weather is damn good "Seamanship" Much more enjoyable than watch TV
but a "Lard Ass" wouldn't really understand that.

Right you are Thom. In days of yore sailing was a hardy proffession with no
luxury, let alone comfort. Looking forward to the rum ration was a high
point of the day, much like people looking forward to their small bag of
peanuts and 1/2 can of soda on an airline flight.

RB can only associate liquor with excess. Real manly men can and do hold
their liquor. Mooron holds it with both hands. RB is not a sailor nor a
manly man and I don't think he can even fit into an airline seat.

Bob Crantz, I have no boat!

Yeah! Joseph Hazelwood and the Exxon Valdez, for one example!


He wasn't drinking.... he was passed out drunk, off watch,..... his sober
first mate had the watch and the helm.

You got it Ol Thom...Sailing after the blazing sun sets is the way to
go here. We
had very light winds and 95 degrees until after sunset. We usually
switch to night sailing around July 4th.

The seabreeze after dark was perfect, the moon was bright, the sky was
crystal clear, saw a few shooting stars. Got to stress test the new
rudder somewhat. Had the new main on, but still using the snipe jib
(can't find where I stashed that harkin roller furler base) Hope to
have everything ship shape tonight.

And that, even if it were true, relieves him of responsibility, how?


I didn't say it relieved him of responsibility.... that's the weight of his
position. I merely stated he was not at the helm... he was officially "Off
Watch".

You're statement on the other hand could be construed as placing him drunk
at the helm.... which wasn't the case.
