Today I towed a broken down sailboat back to his slip.



Scotty




What happened..the sky fall in?



Said he just got the boat, from a charity sale. Looked like
a mess. No sails on the boat, but a spinn pole was hanging
from the front of the mast. I saw him motoring around when I
sailed in, then he was anchored in the river yelling Ahoy!
Ahoy!. So I towed him in.

Scotty



He was actually calling Ahoy?????

Spin Sheet has a 1970something Coronado 27 for sale by the Sea
Scouts...ya think it might have been a donation from you-know-who when
the doctor made the mistake on Neal's hemmorhoids and turned him into Ellen?

Yes, a time honored nautical hail meaning "I require
assistance. I am out of chocolate-chip cookies."

Wouldn't it be better if it meant, hey, bring me a beer?

In my father's old condo parking garage in Boca Raton was a Rolls
Royce - the owner kept a jar of Grey Poupon in the cup holder!

Ha. I forgot the mustard one time, discovered it *after* I
grilled some burgers. It reminded me of that commercial.
but I didn't go around the anchorage begging mustard.
Luckily, I found a saucy wench in the next port to get me
some.

That's why you ask for hot spicy mustard.
