Posts: 157 Framingham, MA | Jake (and all...), What would you think about a regional challenge for the Tybee this year? I've been thinking about how good the distance racers are from New England, and want to challenge the other regions of the US and international teams to the Tybee this year. My thought is a reverse point system, where your region is rewarded for all finishers by not only the higher in the ranks they finish, but also in the number of boats that show up to do the race. Regions could include: New England, Mid Atlantic, Florida, Mid West and West Coast, and international teams. The goal would be to increase the level of friendly competition between teams, create a team approach that goes beyond the individual boats, and increase participation. With this method, Jake, you would be responsible to get Jack on the starting line! what do you think??? Chris | | | Re: Statue of Liberty Race

Posts: 921 Alachua, FL | Jack, I know that you are bitter that we (our drinking team including your great crew Barbie) kicked your butt at flip cup round after round... but my god, a pansy!?!?! I think all we can do is call for a rematch soon! Perhaps next years tybee??? Steeplechase??? or something sooner like the New England 100?
and while you are at it, would you mind making up the plaque from 2006 for me? Chris Our "Cup" team did OK. Especially since we had more people most of the time and we actually drank what was in our cups! Barbie was the reason you did better. She was just on loan. I might point out that Barbie and I were the last ones at the table after a bunch of NACRA jockies hit the hay. Don't worry about a rematch...we are back and it will come. Probably can't make it North again this year, but we will do the Florida circuit this fall. Hiram's, Steeplechase, etc. Maybe the Everglades. Tybee....who knows. Need at better boat. I'll get the plaque made for 2006. Also an extra 2008 plaque with a list of "pansys".

Geeze no wonder you guys couldn't find the statue.. you can't even spell pansies!!
Don't blame Chris. That came from Jake. He's the smart one here so we just followed his lead. He can't spell liar either! He's an engineer.

Man, you guys even let down the Nacra team at the bar? That's shameful. Us southern Nacra boys, Todd Hart, Nigel, and Mike Krantz are going to have to come up there and hold a training class.

Jack - are you calling Chris a lier or a pansy!? <img src="http://www.catsailor.com/forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />
Did this not come from the master?? Do you have a gerbil that uses your computer?

Posts: 2 | Man, you guys even let down the Nacra team at the bar? yes and right before he hit the hay the kid wearing the Boston hat sitting next to me in tippy cup suggested that I please take it easy and not drink too much so I could manage to make it to the race the next morning. I chastised him severely right then and there using descriptives such as pansy and worse. And next thing we knew Jack and I were sitting alone at the round table waiting for the next round of tippycup amidst the sounds of snores. But Jack you're confused about team size. At one point we had at least twice as many members as you. And remember, you were drinking Coke! | | | Re: Statue of Liberty Race

You know that "coke" was laced with rum, of course, and did I not go back and get my Appleton's Reserve when that ran out?

Did this not come from the master?? Do you have a gerbil that uses your computer? pan·sy –noun, plural -sies. 1. a violet, Viola tricolor hortensis, cultivated in many varieties, having richly and variously colored flowers. 2. the flower of this plant. 3. Slang: Disparaging and Offensive. a. a male homosexual. b. a weak, effeminate, and often cowardly man.
No results found for pansie.
Pansy is the correct spelling of the singular...Pansies is the plural version. I never posted "pansys" <img src="http://www.catsailor.com/forums/images/graemlins/confused.gif" alt="" />

Careful, this thread is going to be bounced to the "OTHER non-sailing" forum and labeled "Flower collecting" if you keep going on about pansies... <img src="http://www.catsailor.com/forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />
Right next to the one about Rick's squirrels tasting like chicken.
And Pete's going on about how you alone are wrecking the planet.
Beer is now cheaper than gas. Drink more, drive less..

My appology...I didn't even bring it up to start with anyway. I would never have noticed.
BTW, I don't think there where any "pansies" in this race. I have total respect for the folks that made different choices than we did. We know their history and are proud to be accepted by them on the water and at the table.
