I'm happy I'm not in any club, or can sail to "foreign" ports. I'd 
probably start an incident among the white-whine set by flying the wrong 
color or logo or something.




"What's that?"

"A bandanna. Drying."

"It's blue with white scrollwork."

"And?"

"That's very close to the same design from the 1924 Battle of Uptight 
Underpants. The Commodore was there."


"And?"

"You cant dock if you have that on board. Might upset the Commodore's 
terrier. She's delicate."


"The womenfolk really need to go."

"Sorry."

"You're serious."

"Quite. The Commodore is very particular about an 18-inch blue square 
with white scrollwork hanging vertically from the backstay."


"How about the forestay?"

"War of Wee Winkie, 1928. Terrible loss for the Club."

"Shroud?"

"Trout Conflict of '45."

"Lifeline?"

"Heavens, Captain! How tacky are you, really!? Off the /lifelne/? You 
have a /sailboat/ man! It's not like you have one of those obscene 
diesel monsters that positively *ruin* our pristine waters."


"The Chardonnay Aggression in '62?

"Sixty-three, actually."

"You're not going to let my wife and kid pee because I'm drying a 
bandanna that brings up repressed memories of races you've had your 
collective butts kicked in?


"I wouldn't use such gauche terms, but, yes."

"Honey, the man says you can't use the facilities."

(from below) "We'll see about that."



And my daughter thinks my interest in propane potato howitzers are just 
for her science class.




We were at Bass Pro last weekend and my bride picks up a yellow 
quarantine flag. She said, "Let's get this! People will definitely leave 
us alone."


She's not a "people person".

True story.

Hi Stelios,

How about our quest for etiquette, "milking a dead cow"?

The other thought was, "it's gone udder up" but I'm pretty sure I 
just made up that one.
