  • BOTL UPCOMING MAINTENANCE

    Hi Everyone, as mentioned in my introduction post, BOTL needs quite a bit of updating, patching and whatever else I might come across. Over the next few weekends BOTL may be unreachable on occasion as I do migrations or updates, etc. Just be patient - we'll be back! I'll generally try to keep these maintenances until later in the evenings.

Official!!! Socal Beach HERF - Saturday 10/25

really? i may have to wait then cuz i'm thinking root canal.... i mean, how many times can they fix the same damn tooth??!!

If you can get in for a root canal, you'll be OK. The worry is they pull it, and then you can't smoke until the clot that fills the hole where your tooth was heals up. The sucking action fro drawing on a cigar may dislodge the clot and you'll end up with a dry socket, which would be ore painful than what you are feeling now.

A root canal will kill the nervein the tooth, but save the tooth. You are good to go several hours after a root canal. You might be alittle sore from all the shots and the surgery, but you'ld be cool after a day or so. I you can get in for the surgery by thurdays at the latest, you could be fine with a root canal.


18? that's all?? haven't i taught you anything??

Well I've made it with a 5 stick thus far and really don't see me going anywhere soon that would require a larger case than that. I would have gone smaller, but this was the smallest I could find with the pressure relief valve, and a handle

I'm looking forward to finally meeting you guys. I was thinking about showing up around lunch time, but I don't know if I can wait that long.

Well I'll be there at 6am to catch some waves, and AMG will be there from 8-12 holding our fire pit, so if you show up early, put your feet up and enjoy one with AMG

So let me get this straight. I am dragging my wife down to the beach where she is expected to hang around all day with a bunch of cigar smoking fiends, in the open wind and sand and most likely wood smoke mixed with the cigar smoke. Now this is literally ALL day and probably late into the night because everyone will come back to the suite when the beach closes and smoke on the balcony and drink the tequila, vodka, Buffalo Trace and rum we are bringing. And then I will just get up the next morning and say " You just hang here in the room dear while I go play 9 holes of golf with Jeff "! And oh if we are late, check out is noon so pack up all the stuff, bottles cups etc and sit in the car. This versus taking her out to breakfast and kissing the ground she walks on for kicking Margarets butt and putting up with all my cigar habits and going to this herf with me. Sure Jeff. Sounds like a brilliant idea. Better bring your gun.
:rofl:

Gotta love the wifey Chuck, she's a winner :thumbsup:

4 days and counting. I need to start getting my line up ready. Of course my line up seems to change as soon as one of these guys shows up, hands me a smoke and says you have to smoke one of these.

7mph


Saturday the 25th the southern hemi swell should continue with chest to head high waves for south facing breaks. West facing breaks are looking at weak NW wind swell and some wrap from the SW.

So if you are a bodysurfer or bodyboarder, bring your stuff. I have an extra board and fins if you need. Let me know and I'll bring them

bring em!! i have a board,,, no fins!

this is the weather report i got:

Mostly Sunny, with a high concentration of smoke on the beach!

84°high, perhaps a bit higher the closer you get to the smoke.
56°low, flucuating to 100+ the closer you get to the fire.

0% rain

100% smoke

winds From the North @ 7mph, just enough to keep the smoke out of your face!

Saturday the 25th, Southern California will experience chest to head high waves of smoke for anyone facing south. After sundown, anyone facing west will experience additional wood-burning smoke that will envelop the entire south coast. The flames from this fire will be large enough to be seen from any Satellite in the southern hemisphere.
