My even newer project for The Man In The Moon

That explains it - he missed his Prozac today.

I'll take him on his word. PTSD. But that's his problem. I am sorry he has to deal with it. We all have our crosses.

"Draft dodger" tells you how little he knows about me. It's called "Petit Mal.

And how exactly do I "troll disabled American veterans"? Is this an attempt at humor? Or another symptom?

two small rock crabs. Shitski! Pot went down again.

Hussy, you need to be unique to be entertaining.

overlay and proa already are covering what you are trying there.

you are not only repeating them, you are even repeating yourself,

which puts you on the level of Brent Swain.

are you trying to learn how to weld ironwood?

...trying to pigeon hole me???

Still sucking your hollow heroes cock??? Guy is a draff dodger who now ridicules, berates publicly disabled American veterans, real classy...look he's still posting at me after I explained his childishness is not worth my time? I didn't draw first blood with him; something a bankrupt of intergrity individual such as yourself won't acknowledge I see...And this draft dodger hollow hero of yours is a world renown yacht designer???

I meet homeless and troubled people with more class, honor , less crass much less begging for admiration than your hollow hero draft dodger Bobby Putz who trolls disabled American veterans...laughable clown says "you have anger issues"??? It's called "PTSD" and I got it serving something greater than myself (USA) unlike your selfish self serving hollow hero Bobby Putz but then you're another troll pandering to your hollow hero draft dodger Bobby Putz and have about as much integrity I see..

Put me ignore with the rest of your clown posse already...

I have no dog in this race, but seems to me that if you don't like or find interest in Bob Perry's threads about his various projects, the "classy" thing to do is to not look at them. If you start a thread about your projects and Bob Perry starts posting irrelevant crap in them then you have a point, but I ain't seeing it. You seem find some poster's attitudes to a well known yacht designer bordering on sycophantic, but maybe they just like the guy... it isn't a crime.

Simon, I lived in Germany for a total of 11 years (Nuernberg and Heidelberg) and while your country is quite nice, you must admit your countrymen are not exactly famous for their sense of humor. but you mein herr definitely have a wonderfully subtle, witty way of expressing yourself. I am just over the Oder river, 90 km from Berlin. If you are ever in Berlin I would love meet with you and buy you a beer or two and chat or you are welcome to visit Poland where the vodka is icy cold and the women are smokin' hot.

Wow, I must have missed the thread where this all began... Although I did unsubscribe from the BS thread. Good candidate.

 

[SloopJonB]

Jeezuss Hussy, now you're just posting gibberish.

 

[Hawaiidart]

Bob: speaking for myself, I am honored to be able to converse (in virtual world) with someone who has your expertise, experience, and pedigree. The fact that you take time to post here, when you could be crabbing or drawing tugboat caricatures is remarkable. When you speak, I know I'm hearing from an expert. There are other experts with contrary ideas in any field, which is why customers get to choose who they want to work with. It's a good thing. But those guys don't always show us their work; you do. And what you do is something I know little about but find fascinating. If someone else doesn't like the show, they can always change the channel.

BTW: the CF sprit for my Left Coast Dart, also made in Anacortes, was built in Jim Bett's shop. We are connected by only three or four degrees of separation meaning that we need to have a salmon burger at the Brown Lantern and catch up on all the good times.

I will look forward to reading anything you post, including how to cook the crab you hauled out of your backyard. I'lll take some good recipes along with photos of cool boats like Francis Lee and the four carbon fiber cutters anytime. Does that make me a sycophant? No, it makes me interested in the boats you have built and are building (my favorite is the Baba 30). I find it fun to ponder the boat that would suit me best in some other time and some other place. You likewise tell us the about how boats are born, which few of us rarely get to hear about or witness.

Enjoy the crab. I'm thinking white wine, butter, shallots, a bit of garlic, salt, lemon zest, and perhaps some Italian parsley, served with French bread to sop up the bowl.

Dang, curry chicken and rice for dinner doesn't sound so good anymore.

A specified glass by a brewer should not be dismissed as mere pretension. It may in fact have a practical purpose.

I don't know nuthin' about good beer, but this is definitely true for good scotch.

the right glass can make a good scotch sublime. The wrong glass can make a good scotch boring.

Absolutely - nice glassware makes the difference between an enjoyable and rewarding experience and a quasi-alcoholic indulgence.

Beer should be served in beer glasses or mugs, not stemware and it should be quaffed, not "tasted".

Scotch should be served in heavy Old Fashioned glasses, not stemware like they usually do in the UK.

Wine should be served in stemware, not tumblers or those weird stemless stemware glasses that have appeared in fairly recent years.

No alcoholic drink should be served in any form of plastic - ever.

Clear? :angry:

Chipped coffee mug

Perfectly correct as long as it's before 10am

Curry chicken and rice sounds good to me. I had Kalbi flank steak, corn on the cob and cole slaw. It was magnificent!

I am not surprised that what's his name is gone. I'd be embarrassed too if I made those posts.

Very nice day. No crab but there is always tomorrow.

Dart: I just pour a bunch of salt in the pot and then add a modest amount of Old Bay seasoning. Our crab is so delicate in taste that you don;t want to over power it with seasoning.

Why don;t youy come on up t the shack tomorrow and have a crab ;lunch with us. I am assuming the crabs will cooperate. They generally do.

Crab at the shack tomorrow!

 

[SloopJonB]

Ya got me there Steamer.

Of course when I drink at that time of day it's usually in coffee so......

Rye is great in tea, especially after an early morning swim to rescue the dinghy.

I have discovered that black tea with honey and a shot of vodka always makes me feel better when I have the inevitable cold/flu in January-February.

Dang, curry chicken and rice for dinner doesn't sound so good anymore.

I did grilled shrimp (just a little lime, Lawry's and garlic), and Brussels sprouts with home made hollandaise using Kerry Gold butter last night. The key is to find the smallest Brussels sprouts you can so they're not getting that bitter tinge of flavor.

Poor man's gourmet.

My crab pot has never worked well in Lake Michigan. Maybe I'm using the wrong bait.

Hi Bob,

Here is a site that you can join and become a member of the 'CrabShack'. Fine bunch of members there, not sure that Jill would approve though.

Find a sewer outfall and drop your pots there - crabs love it there.

 

[austin1972]

Your country and mine have agreements prohibiting sewer discharges into the Great Lakes unless it's a storm sewer runoff emergency.

Even then, cities get sued for it.

I'll find those elusive Lake Michigan crab someday! I probably need to use Unicorn meat as bait.

 

[SloopJonB]

They even like the outfalls from treatment plants - maybe it's the warm water.

Does nothing go into the lake? Not even tertiary treated waste?

 

[Rantifarian]

Cats work well . . . .

 

[Bob Perry]

Jon:

We don't have raw sewer outlets into the sea here.

Time you guys gave that up.
