Good.
Hoping 'Face can get whatever her issue is resolved soon..
Me too! She needs to be here.
Are you having cake?
We did last night. Birthday was earlier this week, but I was traveling.
Good morning! Cold and rain here. Poured all night. Better than a drought, of course, although it will probably never again be legal to water our lawns or wash our cars, not that I did either one.
SEAMAN ANORETH PING! It's Seaman Anoreth's 20th birthday! The ancient cutter MELLON will be hitting the high seas "fairly soon," we're told, so Seaman Anoreth will be sending reports from new and interesting Foreign Parts.
Let me know if you want on or off the Seaman Anoreth ping list for the new cruise!
THX FOR THE PING.
Happy Birthday, Anoreth!
Now, watch out for those seamen celebrations!
The morning after can be less than ideal.
Heh, maybe she’ll be on watch.
We’re having a blast of early spring, with temps in the 30s and heavy rain.
And do keep me on the ping list (I haven't been posting much lately, but I do read!)
Happy Birthday, Anoreth!
Good to hear from you! I’m looking forward to hearing about the new cruise ... probably more than Anoreth is looking forward to making it ;-). She was hoping to go to gunnery school this summer, but ended up still on the waiting list, so plans for the rest of this year are pretty tenuous.
At least they’re not in the Mediterranean!
Happy Birthday, Anoreth!
How quickly things change. It was less than a year ago, over dinner in Frankfurt, three of our dealers and I were discussing the possibility of a short speaking tour around the Mediterranean including Turkey, Israel and Egypt. Not going to happen now.
Good find, good mind
Rooted in the manic of the
Cranky divine
Twenty
Wild honey
Wild thyme, dill, basil
Geranium
A cranium well laden
No wastrel, funny
With or without money
Birthday-— hallmark, bookmark, noah’s ark -— an antic occasion,
Folks you don’ even know
Join the invasion.
Granfaloonery amidst the balloons
And loony tunes: you’re placed on display,
Carefully observed for signs of decay.
Everyone’s been where you are now,
And nobody’s ever been there, somehow.
Don’t think twice, you’re wise and clean
Precise
Simple as Rube Goldberg’s latest machine
(No, I’m not giving advice, I came for beer
Or something on ice)
But I’m saying my beads,
that Salvation History (yours, mine, and Here Comes Everybody)
The ultimate Goldberg machine
Succeeds.
Stop your babbling,
Catch your breath,
Time to cheer
For Anoreth
Happy Birthday!!! May she have many more. God Bless! I will put her in my Prayers too. Sounds exciting!
Whats this guy supposed to do I dont think he can find his LMAO. Ladies do not watch this it may bring on animal passions.

Astonishing! Verbalflagration!
Thank you for your prayers ... it’s a little boat in a big ocean!
Hi TC - My father was in the Coast Guard during WW2. They would go up and down the east coast from New England to Bermuda and Florida. They would hunt for U-boats. He hardly ever talked about it. The WW2 generation did not brag. It was like pulling teeth to ask as a Kid. LOL.
