Oydesseus dilemma Saturday post rain

The rain stopped and here I am tied to the mast trying to figure out how to deal with this look at the waves after the rain.

Here is the math:
B+ (sick for the last 3 days)/N( no surfing for 3 days) x S (sunny)/ G (Glassy and good)- X (Is the water at diphtheria level or just hazmat level)+ xw (It is going to rain again soon)+L (Ed's post on the good wave score today)
= Why. Did. I. Not. Go. Surfing!

I had the whole Odysseus thing going today. I did not want to see it because I knew it would make me want to go surfing, but I couldn't stop myself.

Sailing around high on Lotus going to hell and everything, Odysseus was having a bad time and really wanted to hear the siren song. It was said to be so beautiful it is hard to resist. But, when you hear it bad things happen. You might jump into the sea (not so bad), or have your skin and bones melt (bad) etc. .

But, Odysseus is 10 years in plus the whole Trojan war thing gives him about 20 years on this trip. Penelope is pissed off and he needs some type of action. So like all of us when we are at work or have other non surfing obligations when the waves are good, we tie ourselves to the mast and enjoy the song.

You can't help but see Kirk Douglas (with apologies to my 10th grade english teacher )



There are some parallels to surfing in his story. You have to question if Homer surfed. We all want to hang out on the Island of the Lotus-Eaters (with a good right point ) and hear some good music.


Tomorrow I will hear the song again, but this time I'm bringing my wetsuit.

Till then I will try to forgive Ed and David for getting it all time today in the Leucadia Project Post

Is it something we said, something we did, or something we said we did?

Dear God, Jesus, Buddah, Mr Rogers (must see link Fred Rogers as Jesus ) et. al.

I am not sure what we did to make the waves so bad this holiday season. There are possibilities that I went crazy on the wetsuit thing and that might have penalized me a bit. By the way did I tell you that there is a key holder on the outside of the leg!

Well it's time to take us off the hook. The 5 day forecast is a bit scary. We are a good lot the surfers. We need a bit of a break during the break.
