PRIMETIME IS HERE! MAY…

Long days, warm weather, boats are in, waters warming, mosquitos swarming and raft-ups happening!

The boating season is in full swing and don’t waste your weekends! Get that honey-do list done and get down to the docks. I will be out as often as possible for both fun and frolic.

So watch out for the NBH’s (non-boating humans) scamming you into heading into the country for a damn BBQ!

People just don’t understand the commitment, desire, and forethought that went into spending all of our weekends out on the water- out on our boats and out enjoying our beautiful Chesapeake Bay, rivers, creeks, beaches, dock bars and small, beautiful waterfront oriented towns.

Have you ever wondered how Junk Mail got to be called SPAM?

‘Always Look on The Bright side of Life’, is a song that has become synonymous with Monty Python.

In the movie Life of Brian, as Brian is being crucified on the cross, he begins to sing this song for the first time. It has now been sung many. Many times over the years during the television show, on Saturday Night Live with Eric Idle, in the movies and in the fabulous play SPAMALOT!

Spamalot is a combination of Camelot and the processed meat product SPAM.

During episodes of Monty Python, they had a restaurant that only served, you guessed it… yes SPAM! Everyone loved to order SPAM and would shout out SPAM, constantly!!!

Remember AOL and America Online? In the chat rooms when people were rambling on? Chatters began to type imitating the Monty Python SPAM restaurant…SPAM, SPAM, SPAM, SPAM, SPAM… This is the beginning of how junk email began to be known as SPAM!

One day at Starbucks, make your name on the cup SPART-ACUS! See what happens when they call your name. This is also from Monty Python as people shout, I AM SPARTACUS!

What Is In Your Cabin?

Over the years, being in the boating business and owning a marina, I have had the need to destroy a few older boats. Let’s just say 50+ One thing that was always constant in the cabin was the amount of Poker Cards I would find.Every cabin had a few playing cards. Usually, it was never even opened and many still mildewed.

How much do we pack into our cabins?

How much do we prepare for things that may never be used? Do you have a cabin filled with over preparedness? An example… 5 sewing kits in four different areas. 5 different kinds of antacid. 5 different unopened board games… you know for a rainy day in the cabin that you don’t go day drinking for!
