"All I know is what I read in the papers..." or what folks have told me.. but this sure feels like it has morphed into the rumored "WAR ROOM" thread.



Maybe you could contribute to the thread if you went to the effort to support your opinion.Congratulations! This has to be the single worst post of this entire thread. Need I say more?
I think it was the fiery green eyes that did you wrong.Pensacola Beach, 1981. Young Coast Guard Petty officer, fiery green eyed redhead . I met her at a little bar near the beach. We had a wild 3 day weekend but she left with out a word.
The Coast Guard done me wrong.
Agreed, this thread has gotten carried way to far from the OP. I thought this was a sailing forum, not a constitutional interpertation forum. When I was a power boater I was warned about sail boaters turning a simple thing into a clusterf#%k. I am beginning to think they were right."All I know is what I read in the papers..." or what folks have told me.. but this sure feels like it has morphed into the rumored "WAR ROOM" thread.![]()
'Cause it's youWhat, my "I hate" post didn't make the cut?![]()
I'm sure Jimmy Buffett can make a nice song out of that.Pensacola Beach, 1981. Young Coast Guard Petty officer, fiery green eyed redhead . I met her at a little bar near the beach. We had a wild 3 day weekend but she left with out a word. The Coast Guard done me wrong.
Perhaps Fred, my dockmate can enlighten you. https://books.google.com/books/about/The_Wreck_of_the_Edmund_Fitzgerald.html?id=1pfhAAAAMAAJ&hl=enDo you have a source for that? I'd like to read more about it. All I can find says the CG had no operational ships in range. They did deploy aircraft later in the night, and two ships from further away that arrived some time later. Also I see that three other freighters agreed to search, but no local fish tugs were referenced in anything I found.
Was her name Sally G?I'm sure Jimmy Buffett can make a nice song out of that.Say, "She left my life on the same boat she came in on"?
I had a similar experience with that same gorgeous redhead...Pensacola Beach, 1981. Young Coast Guard Petty officer, fiery green eyed redhead . I met her at a little bar near the beach. We had a wild 3 day weekend but she left with out a word.

Kermit, Did Bob Lang put you up to that joke?I had a similar experience with that same gorgeous redhead...
She replied, “Oh, you just happened to catch my eye!”
Nope. My daughter told me that one. Bet you can’t guess what color her hair is.Kermit, Did Bob Lang put you up to that joke?
I never said she was challenged. Sheeesh!You should hang our head in shame with those stories about red heads who are challenged.
