Sail!

It's great that the bay is wide open during the week. Not a numbskull in sight!

Fire!

You know, I'm not a cooking expert. But I don't think the grill is supposed to be spewing fire towards the heavens like Mt. Vesuvius.

Sponge!

You can have a lot of fun on a sponge.
Fort Point, San Francisco. Photos taken with my XZ-1. I couldn't see a thing, I guess that's why it's called point and shoot.

Shameless commercialism, Joe.

GoPro's new dive housing is $49. That's a deal. Compare that to Olympus which charges $299 for the XZ-1's housing.

What Do You Do If You See Someone Drowning?

I wonder what they want me to do?

Not Olympic Sports.

Riding a sponge? Nope! (I know riding a surfboard isn't an Olympic sport.) How about body surfing, surely the powers that be consider that athletic? Good God, sir! Are you mad? We can't allow plebians into the Olympics!

Car Wash.

Y'all small tuna fish, I'm one big catch
(This is a Shark Tale exclusive)
Y'all small tuna fish, I'm one big catch
(Here we go again)
Y'all small tuna fish, I'm one big catch
(Say what, say what, yeah)
Y'all small tuna fish, I'm one big catch

Ooh, do do do do do do do
Car wash, car wash
Ooh, do do do do do do do
Car wash, car wash

(Yeah, let's drop it on 'em like this)

Ooh, do do do do do do, na na na ah, ooh
Ooh, do do do do do do, na na na ah, ooh

You might not ever get rich, ha
Let me tell you it's better than digging a ditch
There ain't no telling who you might meet
A movie star or maybe a common thief

Working at the car wash (oh oh, yeah yeah)
At the car wash, yeah (ooh, yeah yeah)
At the car wash (sing it with me now)
Working at the car wash, yeah

(Oh, oh)

Come summer the work gets kind of hard
This ain't no place to be if you're planning on being a star
Let me tell you it's always cool
And the boss don't mind sometimes if you're acting like a fool

Working at the car wash (oh oh, yeah yeah)
At the car wash, yeah (ooh ooh ooh)
At the car wash (ow said, now come and work it with me now, yeah)
Working at the car wash, yeah

Said, said, said, sing

(Work and work)
Well those cars never stop coming
(Work and work)
Keep those rags and machines humming
[. From: http://www.elyrics.net/read/c/christina-aguilera-lyrics/car-wash-lyrics.html .]
(Work and work)
My fingers to the bone
(Work and work)
Keep on and can't wait till it's time to go home

Hey, get your car washed today
Fill up and you don't have to pay
Hey, get your car washed today
Fill it up, right away

[Missy Elliott:]
Work at the, car wash
Sharks in the water make they jaws lock
When I swim through the grim, I'm too hot
Y'all can make y'all bets
Y'all small tuna fish, I'm one big catch
Shark slayer, bow down playa
'Cause this right here will be your worst nightmare (nightmare)
Work that, work that, pop back, hurt that
Turn this up and bang it all up in the surface

(Work and work)
9 to 5 I got to keep that fat stack coming
(Work and work)
No matter how big the shark is, the right keep running
(Work and work)
Washing cars ain't no place to be a superstar man
(Work and work)
That's why I work, and work

Working at the car wash (ohhh, yeah)
At the car wash, yeah (come on work, baby work it, say now)
At the car wash (ahh)
Working at the car wash, yeah

So come on, come on, come on, come on, come on

Ooh, do do do do do do, na na na ah, ooh
(Now keep it coming)
Ooh, do do do do do do (woo, so), na na na ah, ooh
(You may not ever get rich, but hey)

Hey, get your car washed today (hey)
Hey, get your car washed today
Hey, get your car washed today (phenomenal hit)

Tillerman Tuesday.

I wonder if the Tillerman will be travelling south to sail his beloved boat in the world's largest bathtub?

Not Your Grandma's Bathing Suit.

Do you still think I'm slipping, Baydog?

Mermaid Monday.

Et Dieu créa la femme.

Marine Life Monday.

It's a different world in the sea.

Do You Remember When...

...Windsurfing was cool?
That's a long time ago, Joe. I think the dinosaurs were still roaming the Earth.

I think the whole Stand Up Paddle thing has reached a tipping point. 
Gotta love the Herb Tarlek shorts.

Have A Great Weekend!

You know the drill. To quote some marketing guy from a major shoe manufacturer, "Just do it!"

Facebook Fatigue.

Sorry Mark, I know it's your big day. But I've hit the wall. I'm worn out by the endless posts, sharing and resharing of photos, sayings, causes and various other inanities on your delightful website. My mind has become mush and I can't concentrate any more. I'm not blaming you, I know it's me. So Mark, I'm going outside and rediscover the real world. Have fun, and thanks for all the fish!

I hope I don't turn into a pillar of salt! (a little bird told me not fear, I will still be here.)
