OK, so does my breath stink or something?  Not enough deodorant?  Where the heck are you guys?  I know that it's like FREEZING outside and the last thing on your minds is working on a steel submarine...but log in and say hello or somethin'.  Spring will be here before you know it.

Glad to see that.  The Marlin is an oddball thing.  Looks like it could teach everyone a little something.

I've been checking, but I'm so busy at work I haven't had time to get anything done that I wanted to do. :crazy2:  Right now I'm getting ready to head to Scottsdale in a few days.  I have to put together all of my agenda material and help someone else with theirs (joint meeting this time). :D

WHAT, did I make make it TOO strong and everyone is still recovering????   Guess that I shouldn't be allowed to make the gilly anymore John because I enjoyed it :'(

Guess I should tell ya that I refilled the tank because of the last batch I made here, the folks here in Nawfalk LOVED IT :smitten:

Maybe Drum still has some Gilly left on her... forgot to check the COD when I was up there during Thanksgiving >:(

I never met a Gilly that was toooooo strong! :P  It must have been those others that had a bit of problem with our Gilly.  Ya know those MM and ET's are a bit squeamish when it comes to a real "man's" drink.  ;)

We just blew off January healing from the holidays - so let's get some conversations going guys.

Pause - now back to my distiller... :smitten:

Personally I thought the gilley was kind of weak, I liked to put mine next to the rc to give some boost. Nope none left on the Drum, first think I checked. We do have a tank full of torpedo oil though.

Thanks Tom,

I thought that I cut it weak but good, trying to stretch what we had at the time ;)  But others haven't responded back so they may have thought it was too strong and are still recovering.. Sounds like I may have to make a road trip up to see Martha and the COD and see what is truly left onboard ::)   Paul has been way too quite lately and he may be dabbing in the reserve stores onboard
