Once in a great while we are offered the ability to appreciate those little events which occur, seeming like a burden at the time, but being able to look retrospectively back on and laugh.
This post is dedicated to you outdoor professional to whom stuff does not always pan out pretty-style. Whether it is forgetting your sprayskirt/pfd at the base, client lunches in the van or even the porta-john @ the beach- we hear you and this post is dedicated your way...
At present gear malfunctions:
Dry bays w/ holes: 4 *
Non functioning paddle ferrules: 2 (first one happened day two)
Broken grump digger: 1
Cracked hatch cover:1 bordering on 3
Kinked skeg cable: 1
Skeg on hunger strike:1
Cockpits with mysterious odor:2
Paddlers really feeling great about neoprene smell:2
Leaky day hatch: 1
Jokes made about it: numerous
*I am sure this list may grow, although, knock on wood it doesn't; it seems the following would be best appreciated by humming some ridiculous tune in your head. For those of you in the Mad City I am thinking of that kooky soundtrack that Truly Remarkable Loon (the original TRL ** See TLA list) plays while spinning plates. You know, slightly circus style, but not full out Barnum & Bailey's.
-Enjoy
