Ahoy Mates

Ahoy Mates
When our power went out, I went to go speak to the landlord who lived on the main floor. I knew that something was amiss, since Wheel of Fortune was blasting at the normal 400 decibels. Somehow the power to the main floor, where they lived, had been restored about 90 percent.
'He' was on the phone with the power company, yelling into the handset unaware that it was on speaker phone. Perhaps he was aware, but was so old that he needed to hold it to his ear to actually hear. I was proud, though, that he was wearing pants at this time of the eve.
After some tricky moves with extension cords, we were able to salvage entertainment, allowing us to watch 'Forgetting Sarah Marshall' ( A WHOLE SEPERATE BLOG ). We still had to use the cell phone lights to pee.
With all of this going on, I figured the search for the house must continue on. Even though the plans had been ammended to renting, I figured Suffolk county had plenty of gems to offer for a good price.
This wonderful "cottage style" abode boasts plenty of "get to know yourself time" as you relax undoubtedly where many pigs and chickens have been slain. I feel like there should be a well nearby.http://newyork.craigslist.org/lgi/abo/882592318.html

For those of you that hate those pesky windows that always seems to need cleaning.http://newyork.craigslist.org/lgi/abo/880772755.html

Now, I did find a quite lovely place on the water with its own boat slip. The price is not too bad, and according to the pictures its not quite the dump that we have come across in the past. I am frightened, though, to have a boat slip. How can I have a boat slip attached to my house, and not have a boat?http://www.msplinks.com/MDFodHRwOi8vbmV3eW9yay5jcmFpZ3NsaXN0Lm9yZy9sZ2kvYWJvLzg4MjgwMzMzMS5odG1s
So I figured Id look around for a boat and some other accessories.

If I were to actually get a real boat, I probably would still paddle it around anyway. Furthermore, I don't think that people actually care if you leavethe dock. I think that basically the most important part is physicallydrinking on the boat. Who needs all that movement, with the wind, and seagulls making those stupid noises. If you ask me, the ocean is over-rated. This is a great conversation for the beginning of winter.
