Someone at Adidas thought it would be cute to have shackles on their sneakers. Then some dumb-asses thought these "Adidas Slave-Chain Sneakers" were hurtful and insensitive towards their feelings! Poor babies!

I think its about time someone put real shackles on sneakers to hobble some of these irresponsible consumer morons' screaming kids that are running around super markets destroying food products in the refrigerated meat bins and driving everyone in the store crazy (except for their tuned-out parents). 

In the time wasted by these idiots to post their hurt feelings on the net - 3 - 5 American Military Service personnel have either been killed of severely injured, another family in this country went without a meal, an innocent child was hurt or killed in a house fire; - and these imbeciles are raging and moaning over some ridiculous toy fad shoes ? ...Really?

Sometime next week I'll be taking this yacht out on its first ever sea trials since being built here in San Antonio. Moored at a Kemah marina, it is for sale at the present time.

WORST CUSTOMER SUPPORT

ADT/Brinks home security and DeLonghi makers of coffee makers have now taken first place in my Hall of Shame for the worst customer support on the planet.

You have to wonder sometimes how people still have their respective jobs when clearly they are way-under qualified for the position. Regardless the lowest of low quality of consumer interaction (in the kindest of words) with the headphone donned, out-sourced, "Cracker-Jack", live tele-support technicians named Bob, who could give a flying-@^*# about your issue with their miserable corporation; or the woefully under qualified Wal-Mart head cashier with their "scrunchie" wrist band of keys get on a "Hitler" trip over a simple exchange of $25.00 worth of goods - really? - while innocent lives are being taken at schools all over the world and a current administration who's already surpassed the prior administration's deficit spending by billions-plus/ oh don't get me started...

Planet earth is careening out of control because in-part to the extensive unbalance of defective chromosomes in out gene pool.  I guess I got up grumpy this morning! Bah, hum-bug!

A new website host

         Finally after many hours of frustrating design losses, re-vamping, planning and work, I managed to get my domain name transferred from yahoo/MelbourneIT to its new home 1&1.com. curryboatpoking lives on and the design of the webpages seem to project a cleaner, crisper look and feel. My two other sub-domains (boatpoking.com and curryboatpoking.net) are also in the process of transferring over.
           
        

A fully stocked First Aid Kit is a must for any emergency - small or LARGE. Along with a well stocked kit make certain that you know how to use it and invest some time into learning how to perform CPR!

Boatpoking 101 is a fanciful way to describe what Boat Surveying is, for what reason, and what is involved.

Boat Surveying is in fact a thorough inspection of a vessel (recreational, commercial boats, launches, ships, etc.) to determine if the vessel is structurally sound, and safe for its intended purpose. Inspections also include electrical systems, with emphasis on U.S. Federal Code; as well as American Boat and Yacht Council (ABYC), UL Listing, and the United States Coast Guard Regulations regarding color coding, construction and type of wire used in circuits, along with fuses, breakers, and any other overload protection devices employed to keep the crew and passengers of a vessel safe.
Additionally, fuel systems, plumbing systems, and mechanical examinations are also performed along with visual inspection of hull bottoms, sides and deck structures.
