ROFLOL at Lt Da-an!!!

Damn son, I needed that!!

I'll see if I can one up you on Forrest stuff in a bit but Michelle just called an says she's 10 minutes away from the office and wants to talk.

I suggested we could do lunch and she agreed.  Let's just hope this lunch doesn't turn into The Last Supper if you know what I mean.

Thanks Dan, thanks JB and everyone else who has taken the time to share.  It means more than I can type.

I gotta tell ya', I'm dying here.

Welp, so much for lunch.

Judas has left the building and is now making reservations for supper!

Ah hell, the more things change, the more they stay the same.  I don't know any more or less than I did before the cholesterol injection at the all you can eat burrito barffet.

She said she had been tied up all day and has been unable to read the emails I sent yesterday and this morning.  We talked a little (I have a hard time with certain topics in public) but, I asked her what she wanted to do.  She said she thought we needed some time apart to sort things out!  What the hell is there for her to sort out?  Face transplant?  Pecker reduction (not bragging, she's teeny tiney where I ain't)?

If I can manage to take care of those problems all I have to do then is to go to maid school and she can live happily ever after assuming she will fall IN love with my new face, smaller man parts, and housekeeping diploma!

Hell maybe I should sell everything and have some plastic surgery and git my MBA (Maid Beauty Alittlepecker) degree and give every penny I have to help Jerry's kids.

You reckon she'd love me for my looks and my degree after that?

ROFLOL I had been contacted covertly by a member of this forum who said Pascal was telling everybody that I was kicked off this forum.  I told him I was never kicked off a forum, period.

I looked at my farewell thread and saw it had turned into about 3 different topics the last of which was about Hatts.  I saw another guy mention he knew for sure I'd been kicked off the forum, so I hit the quote button on his statement and said I was a mutliple Hatt owner and would love to comment, but I have been kicked off this forum!

DavidK actually said that thread had become interesting to him, but now he was leaving it!!!  Dumb bustirds didn't even have a clue that all I was doing was proving I had not been kicked off that forum!!!

Now do you see why I left that place?  What a bunch of morons!!!

Hey Randy,

Sorry to hear about the worsening problems at home. Hope it gets resolved with a minimum amount of acrimony.  I just got home from Bradenton, Took the dinghy to RD saw the NN 58 sitting there. Looked good from the water. If I had my camera I was going to post a photoshopped pic.  Had a couple burgers there. Nice place and very helpful Dockmistress.       Dave

Howdy Dave,

I thought you were going to throw some big rocks and put ole' Freebird out of my misery!

Yep, the "dockmistress" is a pretty cool gal from Kalifornya.  I won't list her name or show any nekked pictures of her on here, but her phone number is on the bathroom wall in the men's room.

"For a good time call 941/555-1212.  For references call 800/251-9992"

Tell her Randy sent you!

Hey BubbAmigo,

If I was kicked off the BoatUS forum, I wouldn't be typing down here now wood eye?

Take a look at the HOF.  That Sparky1 guy actually posted a PM I sent after he blasted me on whatever thread is was that got zapped.

I thought that guy was a dick, but maybe he just didn't know any better!

I'll bury Mamma in a fire-proof gun safe underneath a tree in her back yard someday.  Death is like a shrimpin' boat in the fog, sometimes you never know where you're go-ing, so I figure Mamma might need a fire-proof safe.

Hell, with that bunch I don't even want to lurk on there much less try to contribute anything.  Same reason I left this forum as there was no way in hell I could get a straight answer or make a serious contribution without Pascal and his buddies turning it into a circus.  I mean hell, I joked around and poked at members on the HOF, but I sure as hell never went anywhere near as far as these guys even with the most arrogant arshole on any forum.

I just have one very serious question where Pascal is concerned, why the hell does anybody like this guy?  If you get really bored sometime, click on his personal profile and view all posts by Pascal on the HOF.  I like him in person and said so publicly on this forum and the HOF, but maybe he really is just an a$$hole in real life too.  He was just being on his best behavior with me in person because I am a lot bigger than he is!!!

BTW It turns out there were more members who knew of "the bomb" I talked to some of you about, but this is not the place to expand on that.  Under all the BS I really am a nice guy you know!  PLEASE don't tell anyone, it would have the same effect as when your parents told you there was no Santa Claus!!

LOL I PM'd Bob Bradley when he made that post because when I read the title I thought he made have posted a thread about why I left the HOF!!  I know that sounds immodest, but I had to laugh when I read the title.

Yes BubbAmigo, I did see zee thred on zee dive-aire sweemeeng with zee shark.  If I was zeese close to zee shark, I would go oui oui in my wet suit eh?

Who needs to ruin a perfectly good can of whoop-ass on a piece of French Toast?

Will someone pass me the All Fruit please?  It's right beside the Grey Poop-on.

Dang, looks like ole Free Gump got his ticket pulled real fast.  Pepe' is going to be so disappointed not to have someone to converse with who speaks BS in two languages!

I was lookin' forward to some new French words.  I've already got the Spanish stuff nailed.

That makes me TOO

But just can't do it but hell someone has to stay behind in order to send Bail money down

Posted: April 01 2007 at 17:37 | IP Logged

LOL at bail money!

Hell son, me and BubbAmigo quit bailing a long time ago after Leon got the bilge pumps fixed!

I think Carl forgot he and I are looking at Sea School starting April 16 to get our Captain's licenses.  The we kin be perfeshunal boters an make the ocean more safer fur alluvus!

I'll know for sure if I will be coming down to join him at Sea School after I clear up some details such as my color blindness deal.  They don't work on week-ends, but I'll call them tomorrow and confirm with Carl.

What do you guys think about trying to do a HOF or underground get together around July 4 in the Sarasota area where we can take in the big offshore powerboat race going on there at this time?

I may see if Doug thinks the heat is off him enough for me to go public again on the HOF and post a thread to this effect, but maybe one of you guys should do it just to put it out there ASAP.  I don't give a damn who asks the question, but I think it would be a hoot to get together on a few Hatts, drink a few drinks, swap a few lies, and watch some good ole' boat racing for a few daze or a week or so.

Depending on how things shake out at home, I could see possibly even showing up with my 41 if we can get this thing off the ground either by itself or in conjunction with the HOF Rendezvouz I already tried to get going.

I just LOVE fast boats and "binikis"!

Esperanza and Freebird,

I'll be anchored off Jewfish Key July 4th and 5th

What's everyone doing that weekend?

Mornin' men, and hello to you too BubbAmigo!

I just got back from the marriage counselor as a solo this time, so my day is of to a flying stop!

I'm about to head to lunch now, but when I get back I plan to call Sea School to clarify a few things as to join Carl in getting our Captain's licenses together starting April 16.  I have a colorblindness issue I need to address, but I don't think it will become a problem.

Unless something changes, I plan to attend classes with Carl and will have plenty of free time during the day for a couple of weeks.  I'm for anything the rest of you are who may be in the Naples/Ft Myers/Bradenton/Tampa area.

Unless Carl decides I'm too damn ugly to stay onboard the GuzCruzer, I'll be hanging out on his boat for the duration of the classes.  Maybe I can talk him into telling me where he hides the keys (in that little green box!) and we can load up and go for a GuzCruz if Senoir GuzBoy can't pull away from the office on a school day!

I've met several good folks in Ft Myers, Steve Fort and Norm Mayer and their wives and friends, so I know I'll be trying to look them up while I'm down.  I'm up for any type of get together over July 4th.

They were just being polite to you before...nobody will show.  Spend the time more productively instead, like polishing the U.S.S. Freebird's engine room.

You sure are a lucky man to have married an Eskimo girl!
