My favorite part was Brian's Mom being made into an end table! Or the song and dance to "Rhode Island Bound" on the train. A classic episode for sure.

ADOPT ME. I can BBQ pretty damn good. And you can give me a funny Gilligan hat and slap my head whenever you want. Now on the other hand if there are any young ladies on this board that bear a resemblance to Mary Ann, well then I'm sure some sort of "adoption" could be arranged. Perhaps even a stranding on a deserted island!

He can steal the wife if he wants, but not my boat!

Sailing would be fun and certainly cheaper, but as I say I don't know if I'm cut out to sail and the wife is adamant that she won't do any work on it at all as far as running it, so it looks like a power boat for sure. Even if we decide not to get this particular one we're still going to be looking since the goal is to live on it after we retire in about 5-7 years and moor it in Zihuatanejo Mexico in the winter and off Catalina in the summer. If we get a good used boat now we can have it paid off by then and we'll have no real housing expenses so we should be able to at least move up and down the west coast OK. Oh and Weedy I can already BBQ pretty good myself and with my luck in 6 months you and my wife would putt into port and say "Commander who? Don't know what you're talking about? We're the only two that have ever been on board."

Well the boat I'm looking at is at Marina del Rey which is on the Pacific ocean, so I guess I do have some water to play around with without running into too many things. Still I'm not so sure if I'm cut out to be a real sailor. Of course it'd be a lot cheaper when we head down to Cabo with it. Ye gods that'd cost more then $1000 bucks in fuel...each way! Besides I know the wife has no intention of "sailing", she wants power.

That's because most of the people who have them can relate to the name when they see how much it costs to keep them going. I guess I could get a sailboat, but I don't know how to sail. A stinkpot putt putt I could figure out, but sailing....I don't know....

I heard that. Strangly enough my wife actually loves the idea now, but I'm not so sure if she will after she finds out what it'll cost beyond the purchase price. I haven't told her yet that it won't probably get much better then one mile to the gallon.

Back from vacation and still sobbing over the Wings. Told the wife it's all her fault since I wasn't home to watch the games and give them my drunken support. Still, here goes: East: Ottawa in 5 Carolina in 7 West: Avs in 5 SJ in 6

Worked great for me. Probably better then my picks will work. Thanks for the pool Ying Yang. Going on vacation and will be out of touch until May 4th. Hope I don't get creamed too bad while I'm gone.

I won't believe it until I see your picture on Geraldo At Large, under something titled "The Hockey Fan's Nightmare Cruise." Just make sure you end up seeing the wife's mugshot online sometime afterwards.

What do I do after a few too many scotchs when my wife throws me over the balcony rail? I can't swim and would end up 200lbs of shark food. I am going to be spending more time sneaking off to the onboard pub though. They have dish access whenever we're out to sea and the wife likes to turn in early...so ya never know. I might actually catch a game or two. If no one hears from me ever again after Wed though then you'll know she woke up and found me gone.

Thanks. If I can make the next round of the playoffs it'll give me one less thing to complain about on vacation. Though the wife already thinks I'm crazy because I was dumb enough to bring the Cup playoffs up in the first place when planning the trip. I gotta stop doing crap like that.

Question. I'm going on an 8 night cruise this Wed and will be back May 4th. Will I still be able to make picks for round 2 before the deadline when I get back? 8 nights with no sports, during the 1st round of The Cup. Why in the hell do I let my wife talk me into this stuff!
