I can't take credit for the following, but freely pirated it from the post of a very dear friend. I think it fits me perfectly and also explains where the need to be a Kayaker come from, at least for me:

Me, behave? Seriously? As a child I saw Tarzan almost naked, Cinderella arrived home after midnight, Pinocchio told lies, Aladdin was a thief, Batman drove over 200 miles an hour, Snow White lived in a house with 7 men, Popeye smoked a pipe and had tattoos, Pac Man ran around to digital music while eating pills that enhanced his performance, and Shaggy and Scooby were mystery solving hippies that always had the munchies. The fault is not mine!
If you had this childhood and loved it, feel free to comment.  :glasses1:

I know, huh? I usually tell people the 70's Show was my life (they assume I'm joking).

Another child of the 60s and 70s here, but I don't really remember much from 1968 and on.

Yeah, that'd be cool Spot. I've had my boat for almost six weeks and still haven't made the maiden voyage. I tried to break a bottle of champagne over the bow, but it bounced back and knocked me out  :icon_scratch:
All joking aside (well, some of it), I was just moving into a new place, getting settled, trying to get registered for Clark College, a ton of other stuff and my general procrastination when and since buying it. I hope to maybe get out to Vancouver Lake this weekend.
 Hopefully nobody in Vancouver flushes their toilet and causes a wake or the water level to rise  :laughing3:
