lol some of the remarks bloggers post are a bit spacey, every so often i really think whether they really go through the pieces of content and threads before making a comment or whether they only gloss over the blog post title and write the first opinion that jumps into their brain. anyway, it really is useful to browse smart commentary occasionally in contrast to exactly the same, old opinion which i usually notice on the internet.

But the other captain insists on knowing
Which islands in specific…

Ha. I know that person. Not typically on her side in the matter, either.

j, I won’t thank you for posting this poem. I’m already not convinced sailing into the sunset (and the next one, and the next one, and …) is something I have the guts for. Though maybe if I can handle the other kind of “ship” the sailing sort shouldn’t put me off.

As a veteran of small albacore fishers (as Richard Burns), various U. S. Navy behemoths, and three marriages – let me tell you that the journey isn’t made easy by survival, but by cooperation.

Great piece KAWF; well done.
Nice twist at the end.
But if you ever catch me out on the great big blue without 4000 tons underneath me;
call the shrinks

I recently ran into another global citizen, Laura Rittenhouse, author of ‘Starting Over’ http://www.laurarittenhouse.com/

Laura, a Yank married to an Aussie, are looking to buy a yacht someday and sail the world. She noticed in my bio, ‘About j’, that I had once sailed and asked me about it. I thought the easiest way to reply would be to post this excerpt from my poetry book ‘Vice Verses: a book of rhymin’ crime’.

This pretty much sums it up, Laura. It was the best of times. It was the worst of times. But if not for that ‘black hole’ in the water and it’s penchant for sucking in cash, I’d be out there living the dickens of an adventure
