Howdo, Uncle DG here, its been awhile, I trust your all doing well.
So we had a rather shitty salmon season this year, the lack of fish was bad enough but add to that the fights, arrests, life time bans from assorted hotels/ bars, money paid out in damages/bail and it really wasn't worth the trip. But there was one thing that made it all worth while (sort of). We'd been out on the last trip of the season and were heading back to PFI to off load what few fish we had. I was crashed out down below as was the skiff man, the skip was passed out drunk in the galley and the "boy" was driving. Somewhere around 2am there was a huge crash, rocked the fuck out of the boat. Both Choch and I came out of that folks hold like rabbits on crack, we're like what the fuck was that but the boys not at the wheel, he's out on the back deck looking at the fucking iceberg he just hit. I throttle us down and we wait, there's no immediate list but the bilge alarm starts screaming. Im likie oh shit man here we go right but we're still not listing so I figure we're not going down right now so it's safe enough to go below and take a wee peek and see how much damage there is. I go back down into the folks hold and right where Chochie would have been sleeping if he hadn't switched sides earlier in the season was a whole mess of splintered planks (we fish an old wood slab), I can see we're taking on water but the hole is about 6 inches above the water line. I head back up top and tell skip (drunken fucker) It took me 5hrs to get us into dock but we made it, if the hole was 6 inches lower though we would've been fucked. Still how many of you have hit an iceberg?

ahhh Crash makes me pine for my before you were punk cd.

Man I thrashed the fuck out of that album last summer.

A mate sent me the one with the Samoan flag "keep da faith" but as I'm half Tongan I gave it to away to a friend of mine, besides if I were to wear "overstayer" anything it would have to rep NZ...like maybe the Chesdale cheese boys?
Is it due to my having a pissy attitude this evening or was that last comment a snarky little dig there Dan?

I find that admiting to having any sort of criminal history, let alone a drug conviction only serves in drawing all manner of unwanted attention and (as was the case with Canada) ultimately leds to being denied entry.
That in mind you do what you think is right.

I'm back (hahaha) or at least I'm out of here (Wrangel Is. Alaska) on the morrow I have a tale or two but you'll have to wait till I get back to P-Town and a free Machine. See Ya's then.
Uncle DG.

To answer your questions: I never actually crossed into Mexico with those guys, Coke, shit loads of it (one of the dudes had a guy), None, I bailed before there was any "real" criminal activity.

Hahaha I'm getting fucking reviews that kills.

So several years back I was at a some seedy after hours dive getting tossed and running my mouth. Sometime later I came to in the back of a car (as Im sure some of you have) surrounded by first name only types I kind of knew, hooning down I-5 heading for Juarez Mexico. Where they/we intended to get into something that would have either made a fair bit of coin, got us locked up or if it all went to shit probably shot. Needless to say it was a long and introspective bus ride home and reason #5 why I no longer drink Everclear.
Now I told you that story to tell you this one, a couple days ago a friend of mine called me up and told me to give this other guy I barely know a call as he's been expecting one, which is odd as I don't even know dudes number but my mate gave it to me and I gave him a bell.
It would seem that some months back he and I were hanging out getting liq'd and talking about this and that and at some stage I asked him to hook me up with a gig for the summer and I guess he said yes as Im off to Alaska to seek fame and fortune (perhaps even fabulous prizes) fishing for salmon. I leave for Seattle in about an hour where we're boarding the boat and taking it the rest of the way. The problem is Im also due in court this fine morn as I was picked up on Felony PCS 1 and 2 (rats!) I figure I'll sort it out when I get back in 3 or 4 months. I would have liked a bit more warning or at least some recollection of the conversation that landed me the job but...
Anyway I hope to gather a tale or two while I'm away, you all take care and I will speak at you after.

Is it me or is that audio the same damn frog from the Jamster thing where you can get all that crap to stick on your phone? I hate that little fucker!

23) Chris knox?

Ok so it's totally mixed up, I've not a sausage as to the order of these lyrics but its just stuck in my head and I cant shake it, so can someone shed some light on what its called/who its by etc etc. Its been with me for about 9 years now I can't even remember where the hell I first heard it, but every so often it just pops up. Please help, I figure if I can find out who sings the damn thing I can get my hands on it, thrash the hell out of it and hopefully that will be that. This is what I've got...

"See the rivers full of rain wish it could be blue again, Hazy petrol night crimson sorry traffic light, stumble home had a good time something something full of wine fall into bed just in time"
