White tank tops and orange gym shorts, dumbass.

Heh. Do you think he died, or is in jail?


Last I heard he went to sea. Here's a video of him piloting the boat:

This link didn't work.


You need a player for the .wmv file format. Windows media player, or
similar.


And here's one of him dropping the anchor:

And this one impressed me as to how rugged
the workboat was.

Well, yeah, but first the WMV file has to download. It
doesn't. The page loads and I get a message at the
lower left that says "Done". No WMV file.

Could this be a pop-up problem? I've them turned off.
This is sometimes a problem for loading certain kinds
of pages.

Could be. I stole the .wmv link off this page:

http://www.nautinst.org/mars/mars06/200601.html

Try it. If it doesn't work, you'll have to take it up with them.

Interesting, I went to the home page, tried the link a
couple of times. Still didn't work. Well sometimes Ctrl Click
works. Still no good. I tried Alt Click and that sent the
clip to download which worked.

Comment. Was there nobody driving the ship? The guy
went aground at full steam and sat there with engines
turning screws for the full term of the clip. Stupid?
Or just didn't care?
