Fish On Fridays. "Oh Shit. So This Is It I'm Going To Die!"

Have a great weekend. I'm out of here and thanks for all the fish! ....................
........................................................................................
Hang on, before I go let's have some Lasers.

No, no, no, not those kind of Lasers. We want the ones you can drink.
Dedicated to the Tillerman, Dan (I know you're not a Laser sailor, but what the hell.) and Litoralis.

LASER BEAM

1 fl oz (30ml) silver tequila

1 fl oz (30ml) Jack Daniel's

1 fl oz (30ml) amaretto

1/2 fl oz (15 ml) triple sec

Add ingredients to a cocktail shaker. Cover and shake. Strain into an old-fashioned glass. Drink at once and call the Tillerman in the morning about upwind sailing tactics. Makes 1 kick ass cocktail.

WetWiki

The good folks over at Live Sail Die have put together WetWiki, a sailing wiki that anyone can contribute to. It works exactly like Wikipedia. So we need everyone to contribute. I have already added a couple of articles and will try to add more each week.

What Do You Get When You Marry A Jetski To An ATV?

The Quadski by the same folks who brought us our favorite billionaire's Channel crossing in an Aquada.
Cool? A nuisance on the beach? A nuisance on the water? Too Ghastly To Comprehend? I wonder what the Tillerman would say?

With Gas Prices So High What's A Guy Supposed To Do?

I love the idea of towing my surfski or rowing shell by a bike. If I only could tow my dinghy this way....I wonder if you could tow a Hoot?
The trailer is called the PB Flyer by Paddleboy.

Curses, Foiled Again!

Foil surfing in Maui. Looks cool. The only downside that I can think of is that you need to be towed out to the waves.

Windpower

Could offshore windmills be one of the solutions to our energy needs? Treehugger thinks it could be and so does the U.S. Department of Energy.
I love the wind!
Just don't tell that to the Kennedys or Walter Cronkite.

"Prime minister of Malaysia bad! Martial arts good! Kill naughty man! Kill naughty man! Kill naughty man!"

Try this out, and experience natural hallucination. Stare at the center, keep your eyes still & look away when instructed. Don't worry, this isn't one of those lame "something pops up & scares you" videos.

WARNING: USE AT OWN RISK. Heart patients should not use this video.
