You know what the first rule of sailing is? ...Love. You can learn all the math in the 'verse, but you take
a boat to the sea you don't love, she'll shake you off just as sure as the turning of the worlds. Love keeps
her going when she oughta fall down, tells you she's hurting 'fore she keens. Makes her a home.

Hollywood strikes again: Cruelity to animals by jerking on that poor whale's tail and flinging it around, as it was innocently sun bathing on the beach. What is this world coming too!?

Remember that TESHannon is one of my quality control product testers and has an IQ of 60...so that must be taken into consideration when reading his responses.

I particularly liked the part at the end where he's getting grief from a bystander and responds that he got your whale back in the water, wtf more do you want?

For some reason I named the vessel a Tayana-I should have called it a Catalina 400! I can just see the Dock Monitor sailing along explaining to some neophyte, "You'll notice how the remarkable Catalina 400 nearly sails her self in complete safety." WHAM!!! (g)
