"Fair Winds And Following Seas, And Long May Your Big Jib Draw!"

Retired Navy Lt. John W. Finn, the oldest Medal of Honor recipient from World War II, died Thursday at his Southern California ranch. He was 100.

Lt. Finn enlisted in the Navy just before his 17th birthday and went on to become the first man to receive the nation's highest military award for heroism during the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor on Dec. 7, 1941, according to a Navy statement.

He was the oldest of 97 Medal of Honor recipients still living.

Despite head wounds and other injuries, Lt. Finn, the chief of ordnance for an air squadron, continuously fired a .50-caliber machine gun from an exposed position as bullets and bombs pounded the Naval Air Station at Kaneohe Bay in Oahu. He then supervised the rearming of returning American planes. Continues at SF Gate.

Play On The Bay.

Not a Laser in sight.
Actually it was really windy, a sailboat capsized outside the Gate by Seal Rocks with all hands lost and a kiteboarder was found nose down in the surf off of Ocean Beach. Lesson: know your limits.

Bunty Says That I'm A Has Been.

I was demoted from horse to donkey by the almighty Tillerman. In order to return to Valhalla, the king of the gods has ordered me to start sailing a Laser. Why are the gods so cruel? Alas, I will endeavor to fulfill the order from Heaven. The campaign begins today!

Demoted!

The Tillerman has pulled me from the game. I am no longer one of his favorites, just call me an also ran.
Here today, gone tomorrow! I'm just a cheap date.

Mish goes fishing. I know, it's not Friday, but some of the folks in the peanut gallery were going through withdrawals.

How do you like your bone, Baydog?

Tillerman Tuesday.

Ah, laser sailors. They are an odd lot.
