Now Mrs. E is busy dreaming up a name for her boat, assuming the deal
goes through.

Every name she comes up with sounds horrible to me. I suggested
"Miss Goody Two Screws" , but then remembered the GB has a single prop.

She got her point across however. She's now considering naming it:

"Knot Your's"

I guess that ended *that* discussion.

Ouch! I guess you were told.




We older guys know how to get along...

It would have made more sense "Ms. Goody One Screw". :)

ROTFL!!!!!

Reminds me of the time when my wife purchased her two blue point
Siamese kittens. She was trying out names and nothing seem to fit, so
I suggested Daisy and Mersey.

They became Daisy and Mersey.

And when her friends say "how cute" do you think I get any of the
credit?

NNNNNOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!

All the best,

Tom

A thought just occurred to me.

I suppose any suggestions in the vein of C-Horse or similar would be
out of the question?

Just trying to get you on her good side. :)

She would probably jump all over it, but I think I'll stay out of the
name game.

Read your post regarding the cat names. In addition to her horses,
(Casey and Sebastian), my future boat captain also has three "Westie"
dogs, two males and one female. The males are on borrowed time, being 14
and 13.5 years old. The female is around 3 years I guess.

Names: Major, Minor and Molly. This is why I am staying out of boat names.

Actually, Major is the major (intended) reason we are still hanging
around up here. The vet says he hasn't long to go, but the dog doesn't
seem to understand this. So, here I sit on my boat with the heat on,
watching it rain, sleet and snow, drumming my fingers on the table and
waiting for the "time" to come.

First dog I had in the Corps was named Major - a gorgeous gray/sable
Belgian Tervuren - what a dog that was. Great personality, wonderful
disposition and fierce as a SOB when he was in battle mode.

Unfortunately, retired early because he had a bad hip that showed up
after about a year in service. What a great dog though. Lived out
his retirement on a cattle farm in Wyoming.

I understand - it's hard to let go.

Live long and prosper,

Tom

How about:

Mrs. E's

My Grand Baby

My Baby Grand

All For One

Soon Come
(an island saying meaning: "relax, it will get here sooner or later." Which is
the style of travel on a 8 knot boat. :-) )

Summer Wind

Or she could name her boat "The Tortoise and you rename you'r boat "The Hare"

I always wanted to name my boat, but on an 18 foot runabout, it seemed
pretentious. And more importantly, my wife wouldn't let me use the name I
want. So since I will not likely ever use my favorite name, I grant it to
you, if you want it:

"Pain in the Stern"


ROTFL!!!

Later,

Tom
