Some of us are still in a state of shock. The news spread
like wildfire over the blogosphere. The Horse's Mouth
was dropped, hot-potato style, from Tillerman's favorite
blogs list. Please visit O Dock for an eloquent overview
of this travesty. Tillerman, for the love of God, say it
ain't so, and bring back Joe!
Last I heard, Tillerman became a power-boat blogger. Why should the Horse's Mouth be considered an object for pity?
ReplyDeleteYes.
ReplyDeleteTrouble in blogosphere!
ReplyDeleteI see that the Captain has moved you from below decks to the bridge. Good show old man, just don't forget your old snipe shipmates.
ReplyDeleteLife is full of change. Nothing is static. Nothing is forever.
ReplyDeleteIt looks like everybody's getting a piece of the pie. I'll take a scoop of vanilla on top with a vintage port as well. Screw the pie, give me a thick wedge of Stilton, room temp, and bring the whole bottle. 14 minutes and counting.....
ReplyDeleteGood show, Baydog!
ReplyDeleteI wonder what poor sap he bumped off this time.
Some sap turns into the finest syrup, a destination toward which you are headed my friend.
ReplyDeleteJoe, I never sailed in a snipe, but I always thought they were cool looking. There's a big number of them in Miami. Many decades ago they sailed them on Barnegat Bay.
Ah, no old son, I wasn't referring to the sailboat, but to the poor souls who troll below decks working in the engine room. When I was in the Navy, we would occasionally see Snipes stick their heads out into daylight, only to retreat seconds later back down the dimly lit depths of the ship. Sad is the life of a sailor confined to the darkness.
ReplyDeleteGotcha. Imagine being a submariner!
