Barry Pyeatt Posted March 19, 2003 Posted March 19, 2003 I'm also fearful that I may become a little too much Capt. Jake like, although I know I have a looooooooooooooooonnnnnnggggggg ways to go to get to that point. Thanks Frank, I appreciate you and all you do for this Forum and the cause we all believe in. A pollywog! :oops: Quote
Guest Posted March 19, 2003 Posted March 19, 2003 Oh yes, a little bit of politicing and whatchu know, a battlefield promotion. Quote

Frank Hagan Posted March 19, 2003 Author Posted March 19, 2003 Facing a mutiny among those designated "Landlubbers", I have added yet another rank right after Landlubber ... so Phil should be happy at least. Well, maybe not ... "Seaman Recruit" doesn't sound that impressive. Still, its probably way cool 8) after being a landlubber! Quote
Barry Pyeatt Posted March 19, 2003 Posted March 19, 2003 Jake, Coming home end of first week of April unless something else changes it. Wouldn't want to miss you dropping your pride and joy into the water. If you want to get that hardware track off your hands before you pack to move let me know and you can send it up to my daughter. OK? Actually coming home because I have to have another surgery on my right eye the following week. That shoudn't be too bad. Very optimistic about all of it. This has been a great place and time for me to have some peace, quiet and just get better. :wink: Quote
Phil Gowans Posted March 19, 2003 Posted March 19, 2003 Now that's service. Thanks Frank! :BIG: Seaman Recruit I can handle. Quote
Mike Pennington Posted March 20, 2003 Posted March 20, 2003 No fare Frank, I been sick, :? Go away for an ectomy or two and the whole dang site changes. Took me ages to log on, my poor brains been so befudled. And the old sites don't even count? BooHoo! LandLubber! Phooey! What would Popeye think of me now? Totally scandelous how you will get a guy off his duff to just get a post out of him. I am amazed! Well to late now, Admiral, I will find a nice character for you in my next novel thats for itchy sand fleas and all for sure. :twisted: Oops! Sorry! Dang! did I really say that? What happened to the Nice Guy Rule? :oops: Quote
capt jake Posted March 20, 2003 Posted March 20, 2003 No problem with the sail track, Barry!! I have it in a box that I know where to find! :D I notice that I now have a new title; 'white hat'! I only where that one occasionally at work (Battalion Chief). I am passing on the next promotional exam; maybe next time. Currently I wear a red one! Quote

Mike Pennington Posted March 25, 2003 Posted March 25, 2003 Aye, Mr. Wild Dingo, It be a sad state, but I be looking forward to POGYBAIT! Better than Bait Bucket, Eh? Quote
David Haddock Posted March 27, 2003 Posted March 27, 2003 So I'm gonna weigh in too here... as it will also help me move on from the insulting "land-lubber" rank! Getting a "white hat" would be nothing compared to getting "scrambled eggs" on your cover!! Something to think about there.... Gedunk Gopher!? Someone who runs to the gedunk machine (candy bar/snack machine) and gets goodies.... Ok then..... (when they first invented them the feed rails had too large of metal loops and we could tip over the machine and all the snacks would fall out..... ) By the way, I was a "bubble-head" in the navy. A beer to the first one who knows what that means..... [attachment over 4 years old deleted by admin] Quote
