I've been lurking on here but with our work schedules it's been hard to keep up with everything. Gary and I have been in Upstate New York working at a power plant for their refuel outage. He's been doing his usual job and this time I've been in food service. We should be heading back to Maryland at the end of the week. we will be re-launching the boat on Monday after an electrical overhaul and bottom painting. You can follow me on twitter @georgette1018

No this didn't happen. I'd never want that experience although I did watch it happen twice to other people.

My college buddy Terry has been to Hedo a few times with me. He is a consummate salesman. He enjoys a nude vacation as much as the next guy, but he never misses a chance to initiate a relationship that could lead to a sale. He believes in the Glen Garry Glennross philosophy: Always Be Closing. Nothing wrong with satisfying a future customer while you are enjoying some au natural relaxation.

Is this a result of the new TNMC 'One In. One Out' incentive? Beeb and Gordon bailed on us...re-enter Gaz and DT... BB and Gordon are two very good and dedicated posters. More than likely they will be back. I say this through my own experience. I gave up crossword puzzles and message boards when I retired in 2010. They both served their purpose in killing time when working a hourly job. I very seldom went on line at home. Totally enjoying retirement, my interests in puzzles and boards wasn't there. Through the years, I can say the folks on this board crossed my mind a half a dozen times a year. For example, when the Giants swept Detroit in 2012, I was rooting for the Giants and happy for Joe. (belated congrats Joe) With that said, my interest perked to post again so here I am posting.

Ahh, the circle jerk has grown smaller. I think I foreshadowed this a while ago, where you chase off anyone who has a different view than yours and you end up a lonely few patting each other on the back for being so wonderful and pretty much sucking each others' dicks. Shame, I did enjoy lurking. And miss Edie's jokes. But with the explosion of internet 'news', and of course Fox "news" since this esteemed(?) board was founded, people can just listen to Glen Beck, or tune in to Bill O'Reilly, to hear cockamamie ideas inflated to 'importance', with little to no rebuttal. Why have a discussion when a rant is so much more time efficient? When he that yells the loudest is the right-ist, old-timey message boards lack. They lack the immediacy, the emotion, the violence of screaming down a dissenter. Soooo, anybody heard any good jokes lately? An old-time ship's captain was showing his daughter around the ship. As they passed a cargo hold, the daughter looked down and saw a line of men, each buggering the ass of the guy in front of him. Aghast, she cried, "Daddy, do you allow that sort of thing to go on aboard your ship? "Harrumph!" and "Certainly not." bellowed the captain. "You there, bend that line around. Give that first man a chance!" Q. What's the definition of a competitor? A. The guy who comes in first - and third - in a circle jerk.
