Coming Out Of The Closet

Hello...

First off - it is time to admit to everyone that I really am a professional figure skater and a graphic designer and to tell you all that I really know absolutely nothing about boats...

I also sew - and I design my own costumes - currently completing a sexy number in Royal purple satin - with flames - and tassles...

I am serious - I KNOW NOTHING ABOUT BOATS...

See http://www.greenoptimistic.com/2008/...ng-principles/...

Looks weird and I do like installing and lining up big ass - 'Dino Juice Suckers' - but this is interesting...

So is a mini tug powered by golf cart parts...

Time to go Photoshop myself wearing Ronald McDonald clown skates - gotta have goals for a long weekend...

I will try to be good - actually got some contract work - so I must stay off the 'juice'...

My next challenge is knitting...

SH.

Why should I believe anything you say Sean. You've bounced around a whole lot with many wondering who, what, and where are YOU? What brand do you smoke? Stan

God Is In The Details

Hello...

Ah sorry - but keeping your eyes and mind wide open - looking at the whole world - and chasing unknown or unproven ideas based on basic physics - knowing what to send to the dust bin - or what to buy off the shelf - is just part of being able to do 'the job' - my job - all custom - all fast - all done - all turn key...

No one way of doing things in 'my game' - if you cannot run with scissors and think while you sink - you should just get out ...

Sorry to offend you - but I never go in for one who claims to speak for many...

SH.

You do not offend me. I've buiit over 300 turn keys and 2 to 3 dozen commercial turn keys. All out of wood except for the commercial. I just do not know where your coming from and have a hard time understanding your writings. I do know you like music though. I will return with a music posting, Stan

Agree To Disagree

Hello...

Well 'poof' - a HANDSHAKE then...

Consider yourself a lucky bastard for being a 'wood mite' - you have a pocket of skills that generations of loud mouth teenagers will never understand - myself - I bang and 'glue' metal - but in the yard there is a 'wood mite' shop that still services same and some massive and still working tugs - the smoke from their steambox offends the 'Yuppies' on their plastic yachts - but it leaves me in awe - I could probably only hope that a person of your bits would spend 15 minutes to show my ass how to bend in a 'plank' - and then walk off and leave me to fail until I got it - with many tries - and a day of resawn material - on the lay...

So F'ck it - I apologise - I know what I know - you know what you know...

Christ - I would just love to take 3 years out of my life - and do some 'woodies' - I have NO experience with same...

BUT - can you wheel steel and lap weld it - NAVY STYLE - (PAINT THE PINHOLES)...

Lap welded steel - like woodies - is another lost art - so lets agree to disagree - OK...

If you could drink to my level - my posts may make a little more sense - hell - I am very surprised that my ass has not been banned...

But - I love this whole thing - I build boats - I fix boats - I go home a 'doodle' boats - I am sick to death of boats...

AWESOME VID - Imagine Charles' life - NOTHING I do is as hard as what he learned - HE LEARNED BY EAR AND FINGER SPACING - a blind Black man in America - that needed to be heard - we have nothing on his bits...

Next November 2009 when I drive up and take the boat to Vancouver Island to visit my 1st cousin I will try to meet up with you and buy you a couple of adult beverages. I look forward to it. Stan

A Couple

Hello...

I will take a photo of what I consider to be ONE...

Google Earth - Shelter Island Marina - I may show up as the guy rubbing his lower back - and looking the most confused...

My mind - and my posts wander - because I am not bitter yet - I still love this **** - and I work in a working yard - I see boats that span 100 working years - every bust back - and **** knees day...

I still choose my friends from same who choose to keep fighting ...

You either work or you sell **** to dairy farmers...

BMC or other...

Can we get together and post him some medicine, or some pills.

Maybe a colouring book and some crayons for when he gets better.
