Ooh... clemmy!

Clemmy I love the photos, where were the taken? I have to go there! It looks so familiar to me. I've never been deep sea fishing, I'm kind of a pond and lake person. I leave the ocean for sailing and yahting. Dating is so complicated isn't it? That's why I like to just hang out, and leave the term 'dating' out of it.

we don't date in the Uk...........we 'hang out' then get to know someone ideally as a friend first then we kinda do stuff together but it's not dating like you Americans know it.............Of course there are the exceptions and the towns at night are full of drunk tarts (male and female)...attempting to (ahem :roll: ) get to know each other up dark alleyways...........the behaviour can be really shocking and i'm quite liberally minded...... :roll:

I think you might be me.

Only, deep sea fishing is FUN. I started in ponds, lakes and rivers...but there's a whole plethora of interesting-looking fishes that can be plucked from the ocean.

On one trip out of Chincoteague Island in Virginia, I went fishing for bluefish with my mom and dad. Bluefish are the strongest fish for their size in the ocean and they get BIG. About 4 feet long where we were. There's no way to cook them and have them taste good, though...in my opinion at least. We tried EVERYTHING and they just tasted awful.

Anyway, my dad was HORRIBLY seasick on this trip, but we were catching fish, and he couldn't stop. So he'd puke and fish, puke and fish. Just more chum. (Chum is the ground up bits of stinky fish carcasses that they throw over the side of the boat to lure the bluefish.)

It also lured a shark. One guy hooked the shark and was going around and around the rather large boat, with the shark on the line and the captain and first mate were thinking, "he'll never land it." Compared to the shark, the bluefish that were following looked SMALL. I think this shark was probably about 7 feet. So, the great thing was, everytime the guy went around with the shark, you could drop your line and catch a bluefish right afterwards, you just had to land it before he got around again. I was like a kid at the carnival, because these fish FIGHT. After sharkman's 10th or 11th time around, the first mate was rigging up a noose and telling everyone that if the shark wound up on the deck we were all to be at the other end of the boat. (Hey, no prob....) :shock:

Alas, when the shark was exhausted and close to the boat, the guy's line got caught on a rivet or nail on the side and my father reached down and uncaught it, but the test had been compromised and shortly after, Jaws went back to the deep.

I'm kinda happy about that.

Anyway, those photos make me think of the song "Bali Hai" from South Pacific. My father loved to listen to musicals and the woman who sang it on his tape had such a haunting voice.

Wonderbunny,
It's an archipelago called Fernando de Noronha in the southern Atlantic, off the north coast of Brazil. People called it a "paradise on earth." Fauna and flora abound, clear, crystal water -- a great place for diving and snorkelling. I haven't been there yet ... but I am planning to visit it sometime soon.

Dating ...

Postby wonderbunny » Sat May 14, 2005 9:09 pm

I was working on my thesis relating to courtship marriage and the mating rituals here in the US. My field work was in bars/coffee shops/bookstores. It was kind of like an acting job. I would enter pubs and see what it is or was that makes men (or women) hook up. The results were amazing. Customs in the year 2005 is very different than 1950's. Chivalry is missing somewhere. Sometimes arrangements by friends and relatives appears to be the best way to enter into a longterm relationship. That was just my final conclusion.

We would go out to lunch at ROUND TABLE PIZZA. We would get confortable in the booth, and just have a good conversation. We would talk about feelings, movies, favorite rock groups, books, and whatever else came to mind.

Afterwards, we would go for a ride on my scooter. It could hold up to 300 lbs., and with me only 100 lbs we would not exceed the limit. Besides, it might be a new experience for Jim Carrey-to ride a three-wheeled scooter. I think it would be very enlightening for him.

true story-a woman in Scotland got 'done' for drink driving last month.......she was 3 times over the legal limit and driving one of those scooters you are refferring to....she was caught swerving all over the road/pavement and then she fell off the scooter..........in court she claimed to have only drunk Irun Bru (a scottish soft drink...........("Made in Scotland from Girders!!!'.....apparently :wink: )

she was banned from 'driving' for 18 months and fined.......... :wink:

Yes, he can put a mask on and at the end of the date he takes it off and sees who he is with! :lol:

No-I mean, him on a date with someone he'd never met?

:( Did anyone say yes? :(

I think he shouldn't date anyone he works with-that is just my opinion and my opinion is like an ass-hole, everyone has one- :lol:

Jim looks like the type to like a challenge-then why doesn't he challenge himself and go for someone that will be hard to get but once he gets her he'll live happily ever after- :wink:
