They're all gone, I'm still here. The 27th edition of the Outer Banks Fishing Trip was pulled off despite a COVID scare (my daughter's friend had it) and forecasts that looked awfully wet.

14 aging W and M chums plus OBX Dave and a few of my delinquent Norfolk friends came down on Saturday after the group had mostly depleted. Kudos to everyone for making it, especially those who traveled long distances and those who made all 4 days.
Here's Friday night:
We usually log many hours at Tortuga's Lie, but the pandemic meant we had beach days instead. Not a bad Plan B. But we did manage a quick meal there on Saturday.
Gheorghies in attendance included OBX Dave and regular Dave, rob, Wheelhouse Jerry, and a surprise appearance from Marls and family.
One of the nights, the moon and lightning did some tandem illumination.
I'm back to reality Thursday.
Can't Can wait.

Why would someone shave off a mustache during OBFT? Asking for a friend.
Bari Weiss' resignation letter from the NY Times is pretty awesome. I hope the far left doesn't cancel me for liking it.
RE: Mustache Removal
Well, we were down to a few of the gang, and nobody else had one, and it was really bushy and annoying me. It had served its purpose.
If I had been there we'd have been mustache twins. I keep thinking I'll get rid of mine, but I can't bring myself to do it.
Mine was not warmly received by the OBFTers. I think when we all ‘stached it up, it was a festive collection. One guy with a thick mustache just makes everyone else uncomfortable and feel less manly.
The humble mustache does contain great power. I have one marketing person that I do print for who asks me to take of my mask and show it off whenever I see her. A little creepy, but I give her what she wants.
Whit, 'twas an artful 'stache. Gave you kind of a "Deadwood" blacksmith look.
thanks for a great time, whit! obx dave has convinced me to retire on the outer banks.
Beastie Boys Channel on SiriusXM this week. Channel 35.
Shadrach on now...

ZeroZeroZero is the next tv show you should watch.
Apparently I’ve been married for ten years, as of today. Or so I’m told. TaTaTootie, put this on the calendar with a seven day reminder.
RIP to Zman. I know Zwoman is cool, but having to be reminded of your anniversary is not a good look.
If this terrible, ugly ignominy is what it takes to oust Danny Snyder... well then, bring... it... on...

dc sports media have been teasing that story like it's the next avengers movie for the last week. hope it turns out to be more than a wet squib.
For real. When is the piece coming out?
no high school football, cheer, volleyball in virginia in fall 2020.
NJ delayed the start of high school/youth football to Sep 14. Feeling less likely it happens. I have started the awkward process of trying to slide him back onto the travel soccer team he left to play football. This will be the mother of all travel soccer politics maneuvering if we can pull this off.
everyone here has loudly exclaimed 'i'm gonna dip my balls in it!' without realizing their significant other was unmuted on a work conference call, right?
At least you didn't forget an anniversary of note.
