Brainstorms.....or brainstalls

Wow. Lots of posting going on these few days. I'll be brief. Sure. Me. Brief.

Yeah.

Next year, sell Nalgen bottles with "Fox Chapel" on them instead of flip flops. Might make more margin moving many multicolored bottles that way.

Watching "The Incredibles" tonight. The facial expressions on animated characters have surpassed what regular humans can produce.

I filled out the survey on the Hoover Invite today. I wasn't too harsh on them. I think I just melted their computer, rather than blowing it up. Really, those entry fees were double what we'll pay for Midwest, and Midwest will have start docks and a full course with a marked finish line.

"Back in the day".....Vespolis didn't have sealed bulkheads between seats. There was a little palm-sized arch in those walls, just big enough to swallow your water bottle but small enough your hand couldn't retrieve it. When water got in the boat (like today) it would flow up and down the hull with the motion of the rowers. Really sucked if you were in the stern; you would be up to your ankles quickly. Bow guys loved this.

The next time a cox lops off a skeg, he or she has to replace it.

I'm getting annoyed with the wait for our new boats. Slow boat from China seems to be getting slower. I'm looking forward to the various brothers in a pair. I'll bring the video camera and make sure its a warm day, because people will get wet.

The next time that d**m speedboat comes out, I want an RPG-7. Heck, if every other Iraqi has one, why can't I?

I just spent another $25 on tools. I'm not letting the guys in my toolbox anymore, because I'm tired of stuff disappearing. I think I'll strap the next rower in my tools to the bowdeck of an 8+, face first. Then out they go, with a rower in the coxswain seat. Power 10! At the bridge!

I hate mono. STOP KISSING EACH OTHER!!!!

Well, I seem to be full of anger and explosives today. I think the problem is I haven't taken out any frustration on a rower recently. Where's my pellet gun.....?

SSHhhhhh.....be vewy vewy quiet.....I'm hunting coxswain....huhuhuhuh.

I think I'm just going to paint a huge-ass target on the back of my Harvard shirt and let you shoot your frustration away. That would be an interesting day.
