  1. Congrats That was an ass kicking. Score not nearly reflective of the domination. UK looked good (except the drops) but Gata program is in the shitter.
  2. or Tap the Admiral #noNelson
  3. Welp, there's always the yacht club way to do things. Which if you can include a boozy brunch and chicks in sundresses, I'm all for it. But my exposure to these "traditions" was from crusty commercial guys who didn't want their leg tangled in the lead line and to be dragged off a dory out at sea. No mention of Poseidon or champagne, they just wanted full boxes of speckled trout and to keep all their fingers.
  4. The navy guys can tell you stories about getting their shellback. Not for the faint of heart if the stories are to be believed.
  5. That's crazy talk right there.
  6. Well the shot itself didn't hurt, but the Shingles Vax put a hurting on me. It's kinda infamous for being shitty. That said, EVERYONE says shingles sucks, so I was happy to get the vax and deal with side effects
  7. oh man I thought this was very common knowledge. Only way to change the name without bad luck is to run aground 3 times (rubbing the old name off) or for sailboats managing to sail backwards for a boat length. I don't think most folks give it much thought if any, but yeah renaming a boat is right up there with taking bananas fishing.
  8. Well, Jello had feelings for both of them....
  9. One mistake that I made, is that I sent my kids to a smallish all magnet school (very highly ranked nationally). Wonderful school, great environment, great kids, but an absolute nightmare for class ranking for my smart but distracted kids. If they had gone to any other high school in our area their ranking would have been easily top 5%. I'm convinced that it hurt my son with his college choices. He did not get into his reach schools and didn't get into his target school (gata). If he had gone to a large high school not packed with ringers I'm convinced it would have been different. Maybe not, but we were not the only ones SHOCKED that he didn't get in. 4.95gpa, 1500 sat (first and only attempt), 4 yr dual sport athlete, debate club, etc... class rank top 3rd (sad trombone) It's competitive out there.
  10. No with a regular boat, if the boat starts sinking you are surrounded by gasoline and oil. Which could catch fire amd kill you, with the hypothetical evil electic boat the electric battery sinks into the abyss killing all the whales believe you me, tremendously, bigly. sorry for the diversion, but if your boat is on fire the gas and oil are the last thing you need to worry about. That stuff is usually below the waterline. It might catch after a while, but you wouldn't want to hang around till that happened. Basically everything on a boat is petroleum based or flammable. Point her into the wind, walk to the bow and figure the best way to gtfo(ff) of that soon to be flaming/toxic hellscape. Also the ocean is basically one huge ass all encompassing negative terminal so you'd have to work pretty hard to electrocute yourself with a submerged battery, if it's even possible at all. Seen above: Ron DeSantis' campaign
  11. If you owe the bank $100 that's your problem. If you owe the bank $100 million, that's the bank's problem. -Getty
  12. If only there were some other explanation for my dislike of Sanders.... What could it be????
  13. Somebody has to fight the WOKE math agenda!
  14. USF just got into the UAA. https://www.flbog.edu/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/Grandparent_Waiver_Guidance_for_Parents_Students_Sept_2023.pdf#:~:text=Beginning with out-of-state,110% of total degree hours.
  15. If your kid has a grandparent that's a Florida resident, the kid can get instate tuition in Florida. fyi
  16. If you're going Highlands... Don't go cheap on the waterproof boots/ foul weather gear.
  17. If you are in the Highlands (especially the remote areas) and you are getting hungry or want a coffee and you see a place that is open... don't over think it. Stop. There's no guarantee you'll find anything further on, or if you do, that it will be open even during peak hours. Also make sure you have a sedate play list going on the stereo... I was just lost in music and the winding road and almost over cooked a turn or took a blind summit too fast. (on more than a few occasions) Those roads up there are slim, mountainous, rolling, and the views are legit. This song almost killed me.
  18. Inherent Vice... rare airplane movie find. 9/10 would recommend.
