Clermont, FL, USA | Hadn't planned on it.
I was going to do the C but it didn't work out. If you're scared just say you're scared.

| Still, we can't miss out on this opportunity to start a regional rivalry with the "up nawth" boys.
How 'bout this, if area c has more boats than area d south, Ding will shave his head? I'll donate a bottle of rum toward the festivities. I'm down for that, there aint much left and what is left is going gray fast. With the comedians we hang with I think a better motivation would be that I'll shave my head if our numbers are bigger than Area C's. Dave and Pete - Are you guys daft? What's this numbers bet, if so I want in for some rum too none of this gay shaving of the head crap. The guest list is done and published with only 1 team from C, 2 from A and 12 from D | | | Re: Alter Cup

Naples, FL | why not wager based on turnout like this:
For each boat registered, Division earns 1 point (equal to 1/5 of designated liquor).
Division with most # of points wins.
Losing division sends winning division amount of liquor equal to NET LOSS (winning total - losing total = net loss) to be equally distributed at winning division's next function
what say ye?
(Even pirates can be democratic...arrrg)

Naples, FL | hey, if all ya'll would stop downsizing your staff, I'd have enough insurance sold to buy one of your dinky little F18 and actually suffer around a course or to.
Still would probably buy a 20 so I wouldn't have to find some anorexic crew (they tend to be fag magnets anyhow).
Each day is that much closer to team tons-o-fun's triumphant return...

Roanoke Island ,N.C. | I guess you can't collect that bottle o rum I owe you then :P The rate we're going it'll be "Extra Old" when I get it.  Ding, I'm too dumb to be Skeered, I'll let ya know if it ever happens though. Jay, There is no new N-20, just a new WIDE,powered up boat possibly based off of the N-20.

Syracuse, NY Hobie Fleet 204 | and so begs the eternal question: light rum vs. dark rum...
although personally I've developed an affection for a whiskey with my cola over rum. Maybe the soda masks too much of the rum flavor?
but nothing cleans my sinus and treats me better than good ole' vodka and tonic. Make it strong enough, and you've got hand sanitizer too!
feeling chocoholic today? white russian with a splash of cola, and you've got an adult version of the yoo-hoo beverage.
It's friday and happy hour starts in a few hours. can you tell? \ no self respecting pirate would use "cola" .... PS my ONLY drink is Capt. on the rocks... (arggggggg) The Captain Morgan on the label isn't a pirate he was in the village people,which stands to reason since spiced rum is GAY! +1 Todd You still owe me a case of PBR!!!! Dude Anyhow this Alter Cup looks more like the Florida Invitational. Good Luck to all...I'll be watchin, wish I was there.

How about the Steeple tough guy, promise I won't yell at you this time... well maybe :-) We are on the beach at Alter, and probably looking at a postponement for tomorrow, but after that it's on! Now if I can only adjust to the space issues, damn those boats are small :-)

| Good deal! I think the F16 would make a great ladies boat, considering they are usually lighter.
Do you know if she has a blog?

Clermont, FL, USA | Okay Steeple it is!
Still a bit breezy here. We had a nice kick off. Everyone needs to be on the beach at 9AM for the fleet draw, so gramps is back for some sleepy time, just can't keep up with the kids.
Great crowd, some very lively dicussions about everything sailing related, Pete you would have enjoyed it, okay it was F18 centric but still...
