Hey Chach, you goin to Warren MIller at the Park West on Friday. Kenny from Gonzo


Yeah, most definitely! Got a 6:30 ticket because 9:30 was sold out, even though I was supposed to meet some people at later show. Hopefully it all works out. It's always awesome and a great time. Here's a good article: link BTW, I met one of the editors a few years ago and stayed in touch. Emailed him, maybe I will get a response and/or he may be in town for the show.

Also, Shred Shop snowboarding film festival is November 10 always rocks, too. www.shredshop.com

Trick or treating after, and very possibly a rare trip to 'burbs on Sat., if you hear of any more good parties we can hit please let me know!

Any other sailors going to Warren Miller (there usually are!)?

An excellent suggestion!!!!!!!!

Great Lakes sponsors the Cutlass Race!!

But do not limit your concert to just the self-absorbed of Area III.

Do you think the Navy could supply some boats to serve as water taxis across Waukegan Harbor? That way the racers wouldn't have to walk over a mile to the concert, which would be held in the bandshell east of the harbor. Open the concert to the public for free (costs borne by the racers). Let all the Great Lakes sailors on leave attend too. A nice evening concert after the "sweepers" have arrived and eaten dinner.

Seems only right.

BRAVO ZULU!

We need to find out why they gave up buoy racing. Perhaps Brenda Sollitt would also have an interesting opinion on this specific matter?


Codger,

Kutty's Ark gave up buoy racing, in part, because Mr. McGinnis and Co. were unable to get her uphill with the newer (in their section) boats. Perhaps they would reconsider if modified Olympic courses reappeared in Area III.

Ms Sollit made an effort to get Rebel around the race course after Sumner died, but lost heart after a couple of seasons.

"Unable to get her uphill" sounds like what's needed is a W/L LMPHRF rating.

As to Brenda, she also got saddled with being a RCC. Now that she is a RCC (E) maybe someone could help her out.

I want another shit fight with akaGP and TMsail.
Let's give them guns. JT

Conrad Metcalf!

Metcalf, Kobal, Moorman. How soon they forget at Monroe St. Station! Good thing Grinder knows you're a "legend" in your own time. Some day he'll be old and remember you fondly.

I got a call from Lynn. She was planning a C-section yesterday. I couldn't be there for the delivery, but judging by the smile of anticipation I heard in her voice, she must be a real knockout (every girl looks prettier with a smile on her face). Not sure, but I think congratulations my be in order, Foster-Dad. It's twins!

Hey Navy. Code flag V! These guys think they have guns. Show them our 16-45's!

I had some more ideas. Do you have anyone who could open the show with the fourth stanza of the National Anthem? I love the part "...in triumph...". Then do a UAV flyby? That would be Wicked Cool!

There is a place for old horses like Kutty's Ark ... where only 1/3 of the buoy races are w/l, the others old fashioned Olympics or trapezoids. Brenda would even find decent boats to race against.

Saw Ex-Top Dog @ Laser Masters Ca-Ball I. He agrees with you. Old days with mixed courses were better. Lower prices, less strain on RCs too.

Skilo - She named them CODGER and SKILO

Bought them matching diaper bags, GRINDER and BLUBBERBOY.

Since they don't have teeth yet, they do not believe in the Race Committee Fairy.

Skilo has written a letter to Santa.

Dear Santa,

Could you please bring Mom some nice Opti rigs and blades for Christmas?
Dad could use a smaller motor for his boat.
Brother Codger needs a home theater for his Junior Fleet classroom.

As for me, "All I want for Christmas is my two front teeth".

MERRY CHRISTMAS, SANTA!

When they have nothing, they always go for the spelling and punctuation.

You're a jackass..... Don't you get it? You're killing me, you're killing this thread. How many people have to make you aware of this? You've even been labeled as a 'Troll'. Pal, on SA it doesn't get any worse than that.

Take a vacation from your PC. Come back in a couple weeks (years), create a new identity, and learn from your mistakes. Don't be too proud to realize that you've F'd up.

Will be at Warren Miller, 6:30 show tonight. Have a few other friends/sailors joing us. May have to loan out my stack of old WM DVD's to the CYC bar to get us all through the winter.

I know many of you have had problems fiunding Ginger Beer in Chicago.

I was at Sam's by Goose Island Yesterday and they had about 20 cases of the stuff in the back left corner of the store near the 2 liters of coke.

Just an FYI for all you DnS drinkers.

Is it March yet?

And if you think he is too old to be a sailor, he and other old foggies are out almost every weekend in those awful corinthian dingy's racing in montrose harbor till the water gets hard. $!0 says he can beat you and look good doing it while being old enough to be your grand pa.


BRING IT!

I'm only kidding... Oh, I never said, or thought he was too old to sail. I'm am fully aware of my abilities on the water and have never stated that I was a better sailor than, well, anyone.

I don't know what I don't know, and I know that. Know what I mean?

Secondy, I'm not the only one that feels that a certain someone on this, and other threads, needs to tone it down a touch. I'm sure Mr. Codger has a good sence of humor, and is a hell of a nice guy, but come on! It's time to head to Arizona old Vato... No, stay here in Chicago. Actually, I have more of an issue with the grandson that got him his computor and the internet access (lol).

JT, you're far out, solid, and right on my man!

P.S. You know what boat I use to sail on, therefore, you must know that I do respect my elders.
