I might have insisted on one more guideline...
11) Must not invoke the memory of any dead guys tragically killed in a sport they loved.

Now, the Admiral is one fine lady, but tell me, has she been hangin' round any rock legends lately?

Actually...yes, to your question about hanging out with rock stars, and/or stars in general...some legends. Although we were struck hard about Sonny's fatal skiing accident, we've had to deal with others much closer to home...like this guy here with Cindy; her favorite actor and comedian.

We've learned over these six decades of living that death and S##t happens. We're gonna have to take a waiver on Requirement 11, simply due to our ignorance and need for memorial. I think Cindy wants to Name our dinghy "Doubtfire" now. I better buy a reliable outboard for it...arrrrggh!

When I last chartered in the Virgins, I pulled into an anchorage and there was a boat anchored nearby with a dinghy floating behind it. The boat's name was "SexAsea," and the name on the dinghy was "SexAshore." Ya gotta love it.

Most of my life has been spent working in the construction business, that is a pretty neat name.
I remember an excavation contractor that had a beautiful Hatteras named Ditch Digger.

A boat I once saw in Toronto harbor: "Was His". Another one: "Molar Power" (apparently owned by a dentist).

I am naming my boat "Worth the Weight" in celebration of the 90 pounds I lost this year and why I finally bought a boat.

I wonder how many others just looked for pictures on your profile page. I'm admitting it. Everyone raise your hand.

HaHa, I double check when ever I post a picture. We were sitting on the beach at Yellowstone Lake, naked, when we shot the avatar picture.

You had the camera turned around the wrong way. I hate when that happens!
