cruising with bull dogs

[pigslo]

He stumbled into the wrong board if he could not take the opinions and a little humor. I think he just wanted to talk about his near genius dogs, no harm done. I still would like a picture of this dog holding a canoe paddle without opposable thumbs. Maybe he used duct tape.

I heard a song while I was out running around a bit ago. Lyle Lovett, called, If I Had a Boat.
If I had a boat, I'd sail out on the ocean,
If I had a pony, I'd ride him on my boat.

I don't remember the rest, but it's now my official boat song.

And we could altogether
Go out on the Ocean
Me upon my pony on my boat.

The mystery masked man was smart
He got himself a Tonto
'Cause Tonto did the dirty work for free
But Tonto he was smarter
And one day said kemo sabe
Kiss my ass I bought a boat
I'm going out to sea

I was not asking for opinions but simply wanted to know if anyone has cruised with these near genuis dogs. Obviously no one on this site is acctually out cruising so I will have to see for my self. Good luck arm chair sailors have fun talking sh*t while Im out sailing.

Jaysus we get some weird f...s in here.

We will have fun talkin **** while you're out shovelling it.

My old mutt loved to sail, loved to coastal cruise, yeah loved canoing, camping, drives in the country, long walks , chasing sticks, eating , sleeping, sneakers (preferably double knotted) and as the years passed by she seemed to delevlop an inordinate interest in farting, but three weeks cooped up in a sailing boat with bugger all exercise or room to move ? I don't think so.

Might I suggest a brace of Gerbils ?

FYI, believe that was originally a Jimmy Buffett song...

Full lyrics are:

If I had a boat
I'd go out on the ocean
And if I had a pony
I'd ride him on my boat
And we could all together
Go out on the ocean
Me upon my pony on my boat

If I were Roy Rogers
I'd sure enough be single
I couldn't bring myself to marrying old Dale
It'd just be me and trigger
We'd go riding through them movies
Then we'd buy a boat and on the sea we'd sail

And if I had a boat
I'd go out on the ocean
And if I had a pony
I'd ride him on my boat
And we could all together
Go out on the ocean
Me upon my pony on my boat

The mystery masked man was smart
He got himself a Tonto
'Cause Tonto did the dirty work for free
But Tonto he was smarter
And one day said kemo sabe
Kiss my ass I bought a boat
I'm going out to sea

And if I had a boat
I'd go out on the ocean
And if I had a pony
I'd ride him on my boat
And we could all together
Go out on the ocean
Me upon my pony on my boat

And if I were like lightning
I wouldn't need no sneakers
I'd come and go wherever I would please
And I'd scare 'em by the shade tree
And I'd scare 'em by the light pole
But I would not scare my pony on my boat out on the sea

And if I had a boat
I'd go out on the ocean
And if I had a pony
I'd ride him on my boat
And we could all together
Go out on the ocean
Me upon my pony on my boat

Actually, a raft of hamsters could, if properly harnessed, supply motive power as an eco-friendly alternative to a diesel.

Full lyrics are:

Sorry SD but no. It was written by Lyle Lovett and first appeared on his album "Pontiac". Maybe JB did a cover but it's not his song.

I stand correct Mr. Wombat... But the full lyrics are the same. My wife always did say my knowledge of music could fit on the head of a pin and leave room for the angels..

Mine reckons my knowledge of the universe in general would fit in the same available space. Gee Wimmin can be cruel.

BTW Pontiac and his self titled "Lyle Lovett" are two of my favourite albums. I don't go for his later stuff as much but those two were gems.

Also BTW, there is a song by Guy Clark called Boats to Build off the album of the same name. It's another of my favourite boat songs. If you like intelligent country folk roots whatever I'd heartily recommend the album.

It's time for a change
I'm tired of that same ol same
The same ol words the same ol lines
The same ol tricks and the same ol rhymes

Days precious days
Roll in and out like waves
I got boards to bend I got planks to nail
I got charts to make I got seas to sail

I'm gonna build me a boat
With these two hands
It’ll be a fair curve
From a noble plan
Let the chips fall where they will
Cause I've got boats to build

Sails are just like wings
The wind can make em sing
Songs of life songs of hope
Songs to keep your dreams afloat

Shores distant shores
There’s where I'm headed for
Got the stars to guide my way
Sail into the light of day

Totally off topic, thread hijacked yet again. Bloody Wombat.

excuse me for asking if anyone OWNS AND CRUISES with bull dogs. was never interested in your opinions since you DO NOT CRUISE with bull dogs. Real friendly site I feel so welcome.
