I've done some renamings...usually involve a virgin peeing on the bow and an intentional grounding. And I've got a speach about the mythology of Pisces down for our own boat christenings.
With some details I could pull something out of my...
hat.
What kind of details? The virgin pee thing might be tough, especially so with the cop neighbor. Way back when the boat was going to be renamed from Le Grand Louis  to Tellwicha. |

Way back when the boat was going to be renamed from Le Grand Louis to Tellwicha. most people use a baby...muuuch easier and fewer troubles. is it a boat to be renamed? Is it a boat to be destroyed? different superstitious issues. |

Ning, PM style. Crazy week of work and such... Wiring up our first production assembly line from scratch and finishing all the little detail stuffs that the engineering staff (one dude named Hans) forgot to design correctly. I like Hans, I just wish he had more time to really go over the drawings before parts were made and then powdercoated. Been payin' off bills left & right and trying to get square with the world again. Leavin' for Detroit next wednesday & flyin' back on Monday. Should be a nice trip (despite the humidity)! River & I are going riding this weekend so that'll be a nice break. |

John G was supposed to get married next month.
Parents are not supposed to bury their children.

No truer statement exists. |

lots of good examples of why we should all celebrate every day with the people we love and enjoy. Being grumpy gets old. Funny how I say Pisces is a non-yelling boat and should allways be fun, but I don't say that about work or other areas of life... time to focus more on happy-fun guy so if something happens my loved ones will have happy fun memories.
