Where has Dark been?

[Monty]

Seems Dark hasn't been around that often lately.
So I thought of a few of the obvious things that could be keeping him preoccupied and was wondering what was the most probable.

LOL!

"Don't worry I know a guy" Dark's famous words!

Actually, we went on a bike ride, but I left him at the grass knoll!

Thought he might be out in the wilds of montauk developing new disgusting smells. Heard of a little bit of action going on up there lately.

Please keep him in jersey there are no fish in montauk.
Just kidding ds miss your posts and stream of conscious ranting. Hope all is ok with you and yours.

I think his love affair with portajons has caught up with him. Got tossed out during the cleaning process.

Auditioning for the new jackass sequel.

[storminsteve]

Haha bababooey that was priceless! Laughed the first time I saw it and still laughing. Very fitting.

[finchaser]

In case anyone is really worried he's ok talked to the other day

[surferman]

Don't know much about the ambrose channel but kayaking in a shipping lane dodging cargo ships sounds a little like a death wish. Would love to hear the story behind that one.

[bababooey]

^ That has to be one of the dark sky embellishments that he is so well known for surferman. I would think even his highness the stinky one would have enough sense not to fish the shipping channels in a toy boat. jmo of course

[hookset]

I would guage it like this -
ds - known for embellishments and incredibly tall tales.
finchaser - straight up gangsta in your face truth. bababooey you should ask finchaser. If he says its true and ds doesn't I would believe finchaser.

"Out in his kayak in the shipping lanes of the Ambrose Channel dodging cargo ships "


You can't fish the Ambrose Channel in a kayak that's a major shipping lane!

[finchaser]

Remember your discussing DS who does not fire on all cylinders. IMO no fish no DS. He would risk his life to post a picture holding a fish

Yup, finchaser will give you the stinging, straight-up truth on any subject....he shoots from the hip, no sugar coating....some people can't handle his candid comments...he has even told some of his life-long friends to go eff themselves when they ask for his opinion and it's so severe that they don't want to hear it.....
But then, we should expect no less from one of the founders of the Effumall Club...

I know you and others may find it hard to believe, but some of us really have screws loose, and get tired of the usual places most yakkers fish...after awhile launching at the small handful of popular spot just doesn't do it for us anymore, and we look for new challenges....
I'm not saying that everyone should go out now in their yaks and fish Ambrose, but it has been done....
These are the reasons I would rather do it at night and pick the nights when the shipping traffic is much less.....so at most you will have one or 2 ships a night you have to worry about....
Again, I don't want to encourage anyone out there to do this...it's really not for the beginner, and you have to have a sober understanding of the consequences....not being aware could mean your death.....That's too much of a risk to try to explain to others....and the reason I would not encourage it....

However, you can see from the attached pic, that Eli was out there....



**(This shot is not as severe as it seems because of the angle the pic was taken at)....he is actually further from the ship's path than he appears to be...anyone who knows the deep channels that Zig Zag back through the border of Staten Island would understand what I'm saying here.....
I feel more comfortable doing it at night...but have had some close calls......


**You really have to gauge how far away the container ship is and make sure you are completely out of the zone when they pass by.....There is no 2nd guessing or waiting till the last minute...
For this reason I would never encourage any others to try this as a mistake could lead to your death....

Eli and I have been yakking for years.
I want to stress that if your skill set for any activity is such that it causes you to question if you will be able to to it successfully, you should not do it.

Love ya too ya grouchy basstid!





********
Monty, you know me too well.....
It seems you were really paying attention to my late-night ramblings out there....
I thought you would have forgotten some of the details, but you really nailed it....some of those characterizations are so true I can't dispute them....

Thanks for the laughs...
I'm back....
