Good morning BN. Mel likes a theme title so here's one. I saw a video of all of Jimmy's boats. His first sailboat was the Euphoria, a 33 ft Ketch purchased with royalties to his third album.

Anyone here been on a boat with a name?

Good morning Bill and BN!

I've been on several boats with names, but I can't remember any of them at the moment. I'll ask E, he remembers everything.

Today I'm attacking the pantry, 3 freezers, and 2 refrigerators. (We have the one in the kitchen, and small chest freezer, and a beer fridge that used to hold E's brewed beers). And I found a pair of gloves so my hands won't freeze.

E is moving offices, so he's working from home all this week, and hopes to be in the new office next Monday. It's closer to home, and much nicer building and neighborhood. He'll be on the 7th floor.

Good morning.

I was on the Staten Island ferry, that had a name but I don't remember what it was. I was on a dinner cruise in New York once but I don't remember if that boat had a name. I was on a sailboat in Narragansett Bay but I don't remember if that had a name either. I'm not a boat person. Never had any desire to own one, don't care if I'm ever on another one.

Okay Bill, YOU asked for it.
I've been on boats with No Name.
Have also been on a Horse With No Name!!!!

That's awful, Ken.

I have literally been on hundreds of boats with names.

Don't all boats have names?

Hi there! I'm wauting for paint to dry.

The cartoon is cute, Ken.

My dad accepted a small sailboat from a friend who built it, but never sailed it. My dad 50 years before scraping it. The builder named after his daughter, BELINDA.

My first trailered boat I named THE PEQUOD from MOBY DICK.


I can't remember any other boats I've been on.

When I was in the Coast Guard near Philadelphia we would often get a laugh hearing the Philadelphia and Delaware
marine operators summon these two boats over the radio: "The Happy Hooker" (a fishing boat, I presume} and "Wet Dream".

We have this big Labor Day festival along the river at Harrisburg every year called Kipona.
This year we made the national news because some crazy broad drove her car through it
and injured three people.

That's very sad, John.

If they are loved, but all boats are are a hole in the ocean you pour money in.

Evening all!
Been MIA since Wednesday as SoullMate & I shuffled off to Buffalo for a family wedding. It was a beautiful extended weekend, but I have to say I am glad to be finally back at home!
Now I'm off to go read what I missed!
