[hoytedow]

Not so good....

[hoytedow]

Very sad, but I have one dog left. American mongrel terrier mix. She is 13 years old so I hope she lasts a while longer. King was 11 but his arthritis was too painful for him. At least he is not in pain any longer.

my dog lasted almost 15 years
his collar is still hanging by the door
I never had the heart to take it down
maybe some day Ill get another dog but Im just not ready for that yet

oh fu3k




somebody forgot the wind

no wind
a cry goes out
find the bastard - keel haul him - hang him from the halyards

So anyway - when i sez to the missus i am going racing again - she gave me a hug and a squeeze and a kiss, and told me to enjoy myself. She was looking forward to meeting her sister for lunch and shopping and girly things.

So there I sit, surrounded by any boat i wish to sail, the sun burning thru everything, no farkin wind. The race gets called off at noon.

Monster of a weekend.

Saturday swam 5,000m in the morning, watched Liverpool beat Everton on tv then England beat Wales at rugby, followed by a BBQ until late, sunday gym session then another BBQ from lunch til late.

Fell into bed and snored the roof off!

[lewisboats]

Started a little skiff of my own design...simply because I feel the need to play with some epoxy and I gotta build something. It's too cold in the garage and I can get this up and down the basement stairs. Drilling on the living room carpet is tricky... the yarn gets wrapped up on the bit

I have to confess Manie; I'm guilty with my accomplice, Jonas - the local witchdoctor.

That's for leaving me and "Fish Tales" out of the fun

A teenage boy had just passed his driving test and inquired of his father as to when they could discuss his use of the car.


His father said he'd make a deal with his son: 'You bring your grades up from a C to a B average, study your Bible a little, and get your hair cut.Then we'll talk about the car.'


The boy thought about that for a moment, decided he'd settle for the offer, and they agreed on it.

After about six weeks his father said, 'Son, you've brought your grades up and I've observed that you have been studying your Bible, but I'm disappointed you haven't had your hair cut.

The boy said, 'You know, Dad, I've been thinking about that, and I've noticed in my studies of the Bible that Samson had long hair, John the Baptist had long hair, Moses had long hair....and there's even strong evidence that Jesus had long hair.'



To this his father replied, 'Did you also notice they all walked everywhere they went?'

[hoytedow]

There is no wrong thread for a joke; not even a funeral thread, if the joke is appropriate for the deceased.8)
