Size Matters?


So, if you read yesterday's post, you know about my application. It is simple enough, name, address, phone...

Then boat size.

They are really not asking me how long my boat is. It is one of those, "where do you see yourself in five years" type questions. Really, it is "are you a chump stuck on a bathtub toy or will you pony up and be a man of the sea".

Do I optomistically put down a 30+ footer? Do I keep it real and put down a 20 footer in embarassement? Not that I am embarassed by our current boat (though I would like to stop bobbing up and down so much like a cork when buzzed by our local powerboat patrol...).

I could go with my "I only carry $100s" mentality and put 65 feet (the max allowed), but I don't think I'll ever need a boat that big unless my part time pirating career takes off...So, I'll go with the gut. But the gut is all over right now, 30, 28, 31...hmmm

I guess life is good if these are my biggest problems of the day.

Ian goes Punk

It, of course is my fault. You could say that about most anything. But this, this is pure genius. Yesterday, he and I were headed to get haircuts. He says, "what kind of haircut are you getting Daddy?". I give my stock answer, "mohawk". He giggles and says, "me too, we'll be twins." He is smiling ear to ear. Next comes the part where I carefully extract myself from getting said mohawk. He says, "i don't care I am getting a mohawk." I saw ok thinking Mel will never allow. She says ok.

Five minute update

Sorry, 5 is all you get today...ok at least for now. Here are the top stories from the past week: Thanksgiving. What happens when you don't see family and don't eat Turkey? Not so bad, sorry family. We had a blast watching the parade in NYC, it was a beautiful warm day. The kids and mostly Mel enjoyed the floats and balloons. We'll be back next year. You can see a slide show of the images mel took, far too many up to the right -----> Best quote at a concert, Best thing to happen to my brother in front of me, "Sir, would you buy me a beer?" -underage girl at State Radio Concert. Probably the last 18 and older show we go to. Save the security team, we were the oldest folks there... And FYI, Rob didn't buy her one, what a good guy. Then we talked about if we'll still come to these concerts if Reagan happens to go to the same one... We decided she isn't leaving the house watching some young girl crowd surf... Prickly Pear is out of the water....
