Sleek,
 I think Zuma left out a comma somewhere!   Either that, or I am too far into his head >:DLol!  Jacie said she can do a melody for the "foam" and would really like to have you try some lyrics for "Celtic Stomp".  With that rig Zuma has, he may be getting lots of company!!  With grog!

I cant tell you how excited I am to hear what she works up. Will she be doing just a vocal melody or doing some music as well?  I will see what i can do with Celtic Stomp. I need to purchase it, i was only able to sample it before. Did she say what she thought of Foam? Bu the way, i think I may title it of time and tide. Not certain. Perhaps yall can come up with a suiting title.

Zuma has one hellova rig. Id bring brandy for certain! My liquid love is brandy.

Glad Hawkdancer got that straightened out, :) :D :D )P(
Sleek I wish that was my rig. I am lucky enough to have so
many great friends that let me play first mate.
You know Jimmy Buffet started out around here and sings" Son of a Son of a Sailor"
His long ago partner hung out with us briefly Buddy Allen.
We all almost did an island video back in 97. On the same rig LOL

I met Jimmy once. He was opening a Margaritaville in Dubai.  He autographed my cheap cowboy hat and i asked him to sign my atlas. I tracked the courses I sailed, with ports visited, shipmates lost, and dates of other importance and where I was when we went through 3 typhoons in the south china sea. Also any famous person I met I had the autograph it. Well, Jimmie had no clue why i was handing him an atlas to sign, all he did was look at me real confused and say, " I sure... like signi g them atlases. " I just smiled and mobed on so the sailor next in line could shake his hand and get an autograph as well. Poor guy, so polite, but confused as hell, why the hell am I signing an atlas he musta been thinkin.

Sleek
He had port of call at several destinations near home or
my older brother and I would have never been born.
His last active duty ride was on the Matoponi.
Circumnavigating the globe and more. I am not sure if
he was aboard the same ship when his  sister ship was sunk in the Atlantic.
That incident is documented in the book "Q boats VS U-boats."
He and the United States Navy were attached at the hip.
