Sense of humor, for example, means a lot and Jessica seems to have a pretty
good one. Sort of a dry humor which is unusually attractive in a girl.

Thanks! (Not much for slapstick humor - another fault in some

Dear Willbur:
I can not belive you are actually consdering alowing a woman onboard
your boat ! You have stated cisistanly for sevreal years that a woman
is an inferior gender that has no place on a boat.


Not just ANY woman - a GODDESS of a woman . . .

And who said anything about a 'permanent' place? It would be more for a
vacation visit and some sailing - that's different.

Definitely not permanent... I've got a job and a life out here.
Besides, you'd probably get bored with me. :-)

Are you actually syaing that you would alow JB to act as crew on your
boat??????????

In a heartbeat! Well, first she'd have to prove herself as galley slave,
bikini model, daiquiri maker and shampooee. bg Hmmmmm, I wonder where
she's gotten off to lately? She said she was going to visit her folks but
only for a day or so. Hope she hasn't run off with some muscle boy.

Hey! Galley slave (one meal a day only!), bikini comes with beach.. no
beach/no bikini, I can drink daiquiri's but I'm not great at making
them (another imperfection), gotta have a shampoo now and then.

No chance on the muscle boy.

You sound like a liberal now Wilbur

If I have an overheated imagination lately it's probably because of
JessicaB. That girl is about as perfect as any I've run across in
decades.
She has little or no trouble seeing you pretenders for what you are.
That
alone makes her highly discriminating and ultimately desirable. If only
I
were about 25-30 years younger I'd have to seriously pursue her.

I wonder what that would be like... Flowers, candy (nah, well, a few),
cinnibons, help with a shampoo - like in that movie with Nicole Kidman
(without the rampaging murderer though)?

Ok, I'm really off to the gym...

Help with a shampoo - now that's hot! I'd certainly like to do that.
Especially if you were all relaxed just back from the gym!!! I haven't
seen
the movie you referred to, though. Neck, ears, shoulders and (shorter)
female hair are so sensual. Turns me on just fantasizing about it.

A bit of my voice? And, what does that prove other than the lovely and
talented Jessica B and I have similar thoughts and outlooks on life. I
dislike the term "soul mate" but "kindred spirit" seems to fit. You have to
admit Jessica's a hottie in every way. She sounds like the perfect woman to
sail with.


Wilbur Hubbard


I don't like soul mate much either... I am willing to learn about

Hah! Got you! Bald is totally fine, unless you have one of those

None of that. My preferred haircut is with hair clippers on the shortest

so pathetic. Who do they think they're fooling? The way I look at it is
any

Thank GOD! If you had said something like, well, it looks good on me.
I would have probably not said much after. :)

Smart girl. That would be a very vain man. . .

Hey baldness is 1) sexy (if honest about it) 2) tends to mean lots of
"energy" 3) probably indicates lack of head lice.

Some people say that Jean Luc Piccard of Startrek is sexy even with a bald
head and some people say I look somewhat like him. By 'energy' do you really
mean 'testosterone'? LOL. It's true - one of the factors in baldness is high
testosterone levels. That's why women don't go bald. They have low
testosterone levels. Thank God for the fair sex.

I'm not a big startrek fan, but yes, he's very handsome. I'll not
comment on the testosterone thing. lol

Yes, the woman is ultimately the decider of go or no-go in a relationship.

You would think, but there are guys out there insist and insist.
Fortunately, I've never had a stalker, but that does happen.

But, then again, some women do like to play hard to get so it's not so easy
for a man to give up too soon sometimes. But, one can go overboard and
that's not kool. Even when a woman plays hard to get any man with even a
tiny bit of perception will see the come-hither clues among the get lost
ones. If there are ONLY get lost clues then it's a good time to hit the
road.

Well, I don't play hard to get, but I'm not a push over. If a guy has
better than a 50% chance, he's going to figure it out or he's an
idiot. lol


I typically ride for about 5 miles each way. So, that a good
distance... stop for a gelato or something, then head home.

Gelato? Never heard of that. Must be a California thing. We have
'smoothies'
around here - protein shakes sorta like. Our normal training ride is 45
miles and three times a week and on Saturday we do a longer ride of sixty
miles, weather permitting, of course. It's all out on the highway
shoulder
and it's too dangerous if the weather is rainy or too windy.

It's an Italian-style ice cream... oh my gosh, you've got to try it.
Totally decadent!

I'll try it if I see it. They do have "Italian Ice" around here but that
probably isn't the same thing. There is a little icecream shop next to the
theater. I could check with them to see if they have any gelato.

Nope... it's an ice cream. Very yummy!

Out here, it's illegal to ride on the freeways. That's a lot of miles!
You must be great shape.

We can't ride on freeways and turnpikes either but be can ride on the other
roads. There is only one main road that goes up and down the Keys, US-1, so
that's the only option. They do have some bike paths but they're just awful.
They are mostly used by runners, joggers, mothers pushing baby strollers,
people walking their dogs, etc. Really untenable for riding a high speed
road bike on the. And, they are rougher than hell what with roots creeping
under them and making it more like a motocross course than a bike path.

I *am* in decent shape and can do some pretty fast rides. My riding partner
is ten years younger and even he has a hard time keeping up when I do a
practice TT. He just ends up drafting on my back wheel and even so, I can
usually out-sprint him at the end of the 15 kilometer course.

I think I don't know diddle about competitive cycling. I go with the
flow. Don't know what it's like out here, but you can even get on a
city bus with a bike (assuming they have a rack on the front).
Sometimes if the wind is in my face, I take the friggin bus back.

snip


Definitely know what you mean... Sometimes having a coffee with
someone is uncomfortable enough! lol

It does sound really fabulous though... sunset sail and a cool beer.
Yum!

It IS nice, indeed. And, even better with somebody who appreciates it, too.

Yeah... I'm not a huge beer drinker, but once in a while is great.


I guess there's a storm season, so just avoid that and I should be ok.

Hurricane season is from June through November but that is really way too
broad. The only real significant chance of hurricanes is from August-Oct.

So then something like April/May would be good? Just wondering... Is
there an ideal time of year? Umm zephyrs? See, I've been Googling. :)


Any time of year in your company would be good. wink But . . .

April/May is probably the best time as it's not gotten into summer heat and
summer fickle winds (zephyrs) yet. Around June begins the rainy season
usually with some thunderstorms and lots of lightning. I don't like
lightning at all. And, it's pretty good sleeping weather with fresh cool
breezes through the hatches until June/July when it can become quite hot,
still and buggy at night.

That reminds me. I've got to get a couple new fans. They have a really nice
one at West Marine that runs so smooth and quite. I was looking at it the
other day. Got to buy one or two when I go up there to get some red striping
tape for the new paint job. No air conditioning on my boat. Don't want it,
don't need it but fans are vital to stir the air.

I have to give at least six months notice if I take a vacation. :-(

But, the good news is that I have four weeks accrued.

I don't like lightening at all either... forget that sh*t!

I don't mind humidity... just doesn't bother me that much.

Yah, I've heard they have regular infestations of head lice in some of the
schools. Between the head lice and the bed bugs taking over, I'm glad they
can't swim. I guess I'd have to quarantine my boat and demand a head lice
inspection before any kids could be allowed aboard. :-)

Fortunately, there are no little kids expected at my place.

Exactly, You're so aware, girl. I recently downgraded to a smaller, lighter

Hey, I could bench press it! (Need a spotter though..)

There was no welding required. Just bending and fitting the hardware. I
can
weld steel but stainless steel is more of a challenge as one needs to use
some inert gas to make good welds. (TIG welding) Welding is a good skill
to
learn. Did you ever see that movie, "Flashdance?" Now, there was one hot
welder. LOL!

Sure... Jennifer Beals (sp?) was hot in that, but she wasn't the
dancer. I should definitely take a class. I think I can get it paid
for through work, so why the heck not. There must be a CC around here
that offers it. I bet I'll be the only woman in the class... great
ratio!!

I do recall reading she had a fill-in for some of the more extreme dance
scenes. You should take a welding class. And, as in inpector it would be a
good skill to have so you could more readily recognize bad welding. If they
pay for it, so much the better. Great ratio, indeed! But, in California, who
knows, the class might be full of lesbians.

The only way to justify it (for reimbursement) is if they have me
switch back to commercial (which can happen when needed).

Lesbians don't bother me. I'm not, they know it, they leave me alone.


Seems to me that the last thing you want to do is having fuel on the
deck. It could even be stolen if you leave the boat. I could see maybe
having some extra if you're crossing an ocean, but if you just stock
up on food and water, it seems like you could just wait it out if you
can't sail, right? All the big yachts must cost a bunch of money, so
they can't be hard up for money for fuel.


Seems dumb to me, too. You won't catch me doing it. The last time I sailed
to the Bahamas I stayed there six months and I had five gallons of gasoline
stashed in a cockpit locker and 3.5 gallons in the little fuel tank for the
outboard and I never bought any gas the whole time I was there. I sailed
most everywhere and only motored when I had to get in and out of windless or
headwind harbor entrances. A sailboat loaded with jerry cans on deck shouts
loudly - motorhead!

Ok, I get it. You wouldn't want to put it down below. That'd be dumb.

Beer is better after a hot afternoon sailing than hard liqour because it

pay for it, so much the better. Great ratio, indeed! But, in California,
who
knows, the class might be full of lesbians.

The only way to justify it (for reimbursement) is if they have me
switch back to commercial (which can happen when needed).

Lesbians don't bother me. I'm not, they know it, they leave me alone.


Seems to me that the last thing you want to do is having fuel on the
deck. It could even be stolen if you leave the boat. I could see maybe
having some extra if you're crossing an ocean, but if you just stock
up on food and water, it seems like you could just wait it out if you
can't sail, right? All the big yachts must cost a bunch of money, so
they can't be hard up for money for fuel.


Seems dumb to me, too. You won't catch me doing it. The last time I sailed
to the Bahamas I stayed there six months and I had five gallons of
gasoline
stashed in a cockpit locker and 3.5 gallons in the little fuel tank for
the
outboard and I never bought any gas the whole time I was there. I sailed
most everywhere and only motored when I had to get in and out of windless
or
headwind harbor entrances. A sailboat loaded with jerry cans on deck
shouts
loudly - motorhead!

Ok, I get it. You wouldn't want to put it down below. That'd be dumb.

Could catch on fire and explode. My mast got struck by lighting several
years ago while I was asleep in the v-berth. Lightning went down the
backstay and jumped into the wiring from the old outboard and solar panels
to the charging system wires to the inside of the boat, batteries, etc. Then
it jumped to the ballast keel which is cast iron and exited the cast iron
into the water by blasting several hand-size holes in the paint. The
lightning arched across the plastic fuel tank for the outboard and blackened
it but it never caught fire luckily. I woke up and there was smoke and ball
lighting popping and crackling inside the boat. One half-full bottle of wine
in one of the lockers had burst open and was on fire in the bilge. My ears
were ringing. It was pretty scary. But, at least I never got shocked by it
or anything. I guess I was lucky, could have been killed.


And you're afraid of snakes falling from the sky? LOL!

Not the intimate details (it's been so long I've forgotten most all of
that
sort of thing anyway) just the obvious and desirable public physical and
mental attributes is what I know exactly how I like them to be.

Sense of humor, for example, means a lot and Jessica seems to have a
pretty
good one. Sort of a dry humor which is unusually attractive in a girl.

Thanks! (Not much for slapstick humor - another fault in some
people's eyes, but I just don't get it)


Agreed. Though when I was a kid I did enjoy the Three Stooges. But, now I
like my humor a little more on the cerebral side.

In a heartbeat! Well, first she'd have to prove herself as galley slave,
bikini model, daiquiri maker and shampooee. bg Hmmmmm, I wonder where
she's gotten off to lately? She said she was going to visit her folks but
only for a day or so. Hope she hasn't run off with some muscle boy.

Hey! Galley slave (one meal a day only!), bikini comes with beach.. no
beach/no bikini, I can drink daiquiri's but I'm not great at making
them (another imperfection), gotta have a shampoo now and then.

I'm sure we could find a beach or two. You could probably get a nice tan
fast if you used plenty of sunscreen so you didn't burn. ;-)

I can't take getting burned. It's just an ugly scene. Red blotches...
you don't want to know. I don't really tan all that well... I'm just a
natural pale face. :-(


No chance on the muscle boy.

Not even for a little 'fling?' You said you go 'clubbing.' What does that
involve? Do you ever go home with anybody on the first date? Or, do you just
like to do the club thing - dancing, etc?.? Was just wondering how wild and

Clubbing... just going to a night club or three with my friends.
Listen to music, grouse about other people and work, maybe some
dancing (not really my thing or Stace's - just Jimbo), fend off the

First date? No way! At least not since college. Too many STDs floating

I think I don't know diddle about competitive cycling. I go with the
flow. Don't know what it's like out here, but you can even get on a
city bus with a bike (assuming they have a rack on the front).
Sometimes if the wind is in my face, I take the friggin bus back.

Wimp! LOL! You haven't seen winds until you've ridden in the Keys. The
wind is blowing more often than not. Often times it's 15-30mph out of the
North East - just brutal on the long ride back. Fun and fast on the way
down. One time we did 30 miles with a strong tailwind in just over an hour.

I'm willing to struggle for a while, but at some point I wimp out. :-)


Yeah... I'm not a huge beer drinker, but once in a while is great.


Beer is better after a hot afternoon sailing than hard liqour because it
doesn't have very much alcohol. Doesn't go to your head so fast. A couple
cold bottles after an afternoon's sail once the boat is anchored and squared
away with maybe a little something cooking on the barbeque is just so
enjoyable.

Hey, I'm a light-weight! One beer every two hours (max two) is about
all I can take!

I have to give at least six months notice if I take a vacation. :-(

Wow, your services must be greatly in demand.

We don't have a lot of staff. Someone was sick today, and we had a
backlog. That's why I got home so late.

But, the good news is that I have four weeks accrued.

And, six months from now you'll probably have five weeks accrued. :-)

Yup!

I don't like lightening at all either... forget that sh*t!

I don't mind humidity... just doesn't bother me that much.

Me neither. I kinda like hot and humid weather. It makes me lose my appetite
and it's easier to sweat off a few pounds because of it. Thinner is
definitely better in hot and humid weather.

I feel sorry for tubs of lard in hot weather. Of course, they have an
advantage in the snow. :-)

There was no welding required. Just bending and fitting the hardware. I
can
weld steel but stainless steel is more of a challenge as one needs to
use
some inert gas to make good welds. (TIG welding) Welding is a good skill
to
learn. Did you ever see that movie, "Flashdance?" Now, there was one
hot
welder. LOL!

Sure... Jennifer Beals (sp?) was hot in that, but she wasn't the
dancer. I should definitely take a class. I think I can get it paid
for through work, so why the heck not. There must be a CC around here
that offers it. I bet I'll be the only woman in the class... great
ratio!!

I do recall reading she had a fill-in for some of the more extreme dance
scenes. You should take a welding class. And, as in inpector it would be a

Nope, I think world voyaging on a small sailboat is for masochists. Coastal
cruising, on the other hand, is really a nice challenge and physically
enjoyable. You'd love some of the deserted beaches in the Bahamas - miles of
sand with nary a soul to be seen. There was this one long stretch of beach I
really liked on the north end of Great Guana. I'd anchor on the bay side and
dinghy to shore. Then I'd walk across the island (about a quarter mile wide)
to the beach on the ocean side. Then I'd run barefoot around the north end
of the island and then on to the bayside where the beach petered out. Then I
would swim along the shore back to the boat. All told about a three mile
round trip. Sometimes I didn't see anyone the whole time. Nice!

just to make sure I wasn't some psycho creep with a criminal record or

Hey, it's Usenet and theatre of the mind. What's the harm? And, if Jessica's
a teenager, she sure has a good education because she's highly literate and
expressive. Besides, no teenage I know of has the mature kind of mental
outlook that Jessica has. She's way too grounded and sensible - a teenager
would be much more scattered and inconsistent - not to mention, not nearly
as sassy savy.
