What the heck?

So, I forget my password, forget what defunct email address I used to originally sign up, send 20 emails to the site administrator with no reply, find out Cam's pissed, PBezer is off somewhere, and Sway's well just s'way. Alex, where are you, we need someone to put this in perspective. Not a wimp, just out of the loop!

Me? I sign up under another username, so now I'm a dual personage on SailNet just when it looks like it's going to hell. Or at least temporary hell we would hope.

Guys, it's all over, this aged lothario has bitten the dust. No more young nubile crew, women chasing (after me), I'm doomed. She snuck up on me and completely laid me to waste. I've no choice in the matter, she can steer for hours on end holding a straight course, pull sheets like a transpac sailor, and can stay up all night while on watch. What more would a guy want?

I can't post a picture because I don't have over 10 posts under this username.

Welcome back and congrats and condolences both on the crew situation.

Ignore the brewhaha, just business as usual here on "How the Sail Luffs".

Welcome back, Ian... wondered where you'd got to.... There's worse places than Z to be trapped, however that might happen. We just enjoyed a week at Barra and Tenacatita with friends - very pleasant indeed!

Thanks for the comments, I think. Well, John pm'ed me to tell me he'll look up my password, then ianhlnd2 can bite the dust.

Her picture is still on the front page of the gallery section like sailortjk1 said, I think I'd better buy her a bigger bikini top.
