I don't know if anyone else saw this article:

Apparently all you need to sail around the world is (1) a life raft donated by your ex-wife and (2) a tiny girlfriend who is going to freak the fuck out as soon as the north atlantic starts and the hudson ends.

Good scam tho'. They did get the shits donated, and can just roll to the islands and fake the logs for the trip...

I like the 200 pounds of Parmesan cheese thing. I just paid $17.85 a pound for some the other day. I guess that everyone has different priorities.

But I'd definetely spend some more cash for another inspection on that raft............

This is why I suck at poker!......... B)

This guy is a F'n fruitcake. He's been trying to get people to "sponsor" his "dream" ("irational thought") for over a year.

Do you really think he'll stay OFFSHORE for three years??? Come'on...,.

This make the guy that wanted to cross the Pacific in an 8' ply-tub seem like a genius.... :( :(

Did he really leave? Is anyone gonna check up on him? You would think that the sponsers would want some sort of recognition or assurance that this is true.

This is a bit too much.... what is the point?...3 times around... No Stops? Head for the Southern Ocean, do 2 laps around Antartica... head north again to finish...

On the other hand being stuck on a boat for 1000 days with a girl/wife half your age could be pretty good...
