Shortest Day of the Year

I occasionally need a cane when my knee acts up. Got a new one.

103

It seems to be high quality but have not had a chance to use it

Yet.

When they come to stab you with the vaxx, you have the right to stab back.

Illegal in CA. The penalty for mere possession of a cane sword is more severe than for carrying a loaded concealed gun registered to your name w/o a carry permit.

20510 PC states that “Except as provided in Chapter 1 (commencing with Section 17700) of Division 2 of Title 2, any person in this state who manufactures or causes to be manufactured, imports into the state, keeps for sale, or offers or exposes for sale, or who gives, lends, or possesses any cane sword is punishable by imprisonment in a county jail not exceeding one year or imprisonment pursuant to subdivision (h) of Section 1170.”

Really?

It seems you are correct. It's a novelty more than a weapon.

It just goes to show, everyone is an uncharged criminal.

Really?

It's California, what did you expect? Reason?

PS. It's totally legal to openly carry a pirate sword. Will go nicely with your avatar. :D

I guess I will have to continue with my plan to bludgeon anyone who dares attack me when I am carrying my cane.

109

Onvacation 2021 Aug 26, 4:25pm

Heading out.

110

Onvacation 2021 Aug 26, 4:40pm

Glad I put a reef in the sail.

I thought the flag would face forward when under sail. Are you motoring in the above pic? Having a wake shows you are not stopped. Does the flag point rearward when tacking? I have only sailed Hobie Cats and small keelboats (and capsized every one of them trying for speed).

112

Onvacation 2021 Aug 26, 6:26pm

That flag was clocking around. I was on a broad reach.
Here's another pic

I was screamin' haven't been out for a while.

@Patrick @Richwicks

Might be a good day for sailing tomorrow. Are you down for a "three hour cruise" tomorrow early afternoon?

116

Patrick 2021 Sep 4, 8:56pm

@Onvacation I appreciate the invitation, but will be at the protest in San Mateo tomorrow afternoon.

But it does sounds like fun to do again. We should find another day.

Maybe 9 or 10 October.

The airshow is pretty awesome from the water. I usually go out both days. Sometimes I go out for the Friday practice.

Patrick 2021 Sep 4, 10:38pm

That sounds good to me. @Onvacation

119

Onvacation 2021 Sep 5, 4:29pm

Fair weather.

This weekend I am living on the boat.

@patrick @richwicks Are you free this weekend? It will be choppy

122

Patrick 2021 Oct 5, 12:53pm

Sunday might work for me. @Onvacation

Here, let me unfuck up my life. If I can do that in just 3 days, I can do it.

Work just got wild - so no promises.

Quite the Air Show this year

Held annually between the Golden Gate Bridge and Alcatraz, The San Francisco Fleet Week Air Show Presented by United attracts fans from all over the globe. The waterfront event is headlined by The U.S. Navy Blue Angels and is the only air show in the United States with a commercial airliner, the United 777, to perform a fully choreographed act.

I'm honestly not too interested in the show, I'm interested in the conversation.

You'll not probably going to read this, but you already know I'm going. I keep asking you if I should bring food, beer is a given :)

I want to understand different viewpoints. I've been savage with you before, but now my generation is taking over, I don't think we are as a group any better.
