Did you go out today?
We stayed off the Lake today because of a 50% threat of
thunderstorms.........they all stayed well north of us. However, winds started to pick up to 30 kts from the s/sw. The Lake was glass for several hundred yards off shore, but capping (3-5) past that. We decided it was a good day to keep the boat in dock. At least I got a chance to install some door hardware that has been put on hold since receiving it. ;-) Did you get out on the water today? |

At least I got a chance to install some door hardware that has been put on hold since receiving it. ;-) Did you get out on the water today? Not I. Spent most of the day cleaning up after a human pig. My 91 year old father-in-law felt sorry for a young woman trying to get her life back together, after a stint in drug rehab, and rented her his old farmhouse. She has almost never paid him any rent in the year she's been there. She rented out bedrooms to a variety of addicts, collecting enough money to pay my FIL the rent but she spent it as fast as she got it. I'm out $2000 in legal fees that we're absorbing for FIL, $1k for the first eviction last winter under which she got current with everything except the legal fees and FIL agreed to let her stay. Another $1k in fees to get her thrown out after she fell several months behind in rent again. On the third or fourth hottest day of the year so far, my wife and I dragged enough garbage, busted furniture, and general filth out of that place to fill a 30-foot construction debris dumpster. This little princess of a tenant never paid a garbage bill so she didn't have service. Every bedroom closet was filled with plastic bags stuffed with garbage. I had to inform my wife that the "little yellow worms" she was noticing after picking up some items from the LR carpet were maggots. One room probably had 300-400 flies in it, all apparently living off cow dung available in some nearby fields and sheds. We found a stolen Rug Doctor machine, and as we initially drove down the lane to the farmhouse we spotted a truck parked at the gate. Blew the horn and a guy walked out from the house area. Said he had been hired to demolish an old barn, but was thinking he might not be in the right place. We told him he wasn't. As he was towing a trailer, he asked if he could pull into the turn around between the house and the barn to head back out to the street. We said sure. When I went into the house I heard somebody upstairs, turned out it was a buddy of the guy driving the truck. The guy upstairs didn't see me and thought I was his buddy as I walked in. He hollered something about "wire up here". I called to him to get downstairs, and when he came down he couldn't give me any decent explanation what he was doing in the house. I told him to "clear the hell out of here, now!" He walked out to the turn around to meet the guy with the pickup truck and trailer. As they were turning around, I made a point to be very obvious about writing down the license number of the truck. I told the driver he had better hope nothing happened to my FIL's farmhouse, because if something did his license number was going straight to the police. I'm pretty sure they were ready to start ripping into the walls for copper wire and pipe, they'd probably get enough to support a meth habit for 2-3 days. At least I earned a few husband points. My wife's sister asked her husband to go over to the farmhouse and help us out and he refused. (They live about 10 miles away, we live 40). So compared to my bro-in- law this weekend, I'm a prince. Won't last, I'm sure I'll screw up in the next day or so and be back to my customary status in the doghouse.... :-) All in all I would much rather have been boating. At least we're drawing closer to our 17-day cruise scheduled for August...yes!! |

Your father-in-law was darn lucky you showed up when you did. Theft of copper wire & pipe is a big deal locally. One idiot stole the few few of small diameter pipe leading from an outside 200 gallon furnace oil tank spilling contents all over the ground. Another fried himself trying to steal wire at a power substation.

Even at 4 bucks a pound it's a pretty desperate way to make money. Having said that, when I worked at the IH tractor works a machinist got caught in an exit gate lunchbox check with a few pounds of copper, probably worth 2 bucks total then. He was fired. He had about 15 years with IH. What an idiot. But I guess most thieves are. --Vic |

Since JohnH gave his boat to his family, he should not make posts to rec.boats etc. I guess since JimH has stated he has given his son his boat, he is no longer a "boater", and will have to give up on the barb about your being boatless. If you ignore JimH, he will soon start directing his barbs towards Tom, Richard, Chuck or even his new best buddy Harry. Lately it seems like Jim is tired of Harry's bull****. At least Harry will always have Don to follow him like a puppy. Instead of cross posting, I am entering a link to a couple who has been posting to the builders group. I think the thread fits well in with some of the trip reports folks have been giving he http://groups.google.com/group/rec.b...34d37c92?hl=en Check it out, the Flying Pig with Skip and Lydia Gundlach. Long ongoing trip report from at sea. |
Did you go out today?
I love the fact that when JimH didn't have a boat, he was crying that he was really a boater even though he didn't actually own one. As soon as he purchased a used boat, his next mantra was "what kind of boat do you own". Since JohnH gave his boat to his family, he should not make posts to rec.boats etc. I guess since JimH has stated he has given his son his boat, he is no longer a "boater", and will have to give up on the barb about your being boatless. Hey dummy, my son is going to Parris Island on August 13 for USMC boot camp. He has committed to serving 5 years once earning the title of Marine. He will get the boat when he is capable of owning one and at that time we will buy another. I know that scenario is hard for you to understand...............but at least give it a try, even though you will probably get a headache when trying to do so. If you ignore JimH, he will soon start directing his barbs towards Tom, Richard, Chuck or even his new best buddy Harry. I direct my bards only towards boatless assholes like you who only come here to stir the pot. Got it? Good. |

wrote in message oups.com... Went out today with the family. Real nice day, clouds and sun. Caught us by surprise when the sun was out when we got up, so we packed it up and hit the water. We tried to go out today..........got to the mouth of the river and hit 3-5 footers on the Lake. Prior to deciding to go out I took a ride from the house to the Lake earlier today and it was good.....perhaps 1-3 footers. Things changed in a couple of hours thanks to these damn N/NE winds that have been around for the last couple of weeks. |

We've had northerlies the last few, too, and some nasty waves yesterday morning. |

Reggie Retardo, or Dingleberry Dan, or Herringbrain John. There's never been any evidence that the first two ever had a boat. Last I heard from Herringbrain, he was storing his boat about a three-hour drive from his house, on the Rappahannock River, near where it empties into Chesapeake Bay. I think he did that so one of his adult kids could be stuck with his never-ending boat repair bills. |

You have got to be kidding!!! You are the only person in this group who has ever made up a boat that he lied about owning. Where is the evidence of your lobster boat, asshole? Evidently narcissism gets progressively worse over time. Don't play the killfile card, you read everything here. You certainly don't spend any significant time on the water. |
