Lost Boys & Co.

Lost Boys & Co... S o, we're sitting in Brother's and we overhear this conversation:     "No, dude, I saw the whole thing..."     "I'm telling you man, there is no such thing as the Meth Hunter and he's not going around busting people on meth."     "Oh yeah, well tell it to the chick who ended up in handcuffs and the 5 people who were in the apartment and the cops who had to rescue the meth-heads from his wrath...  And dude, I don't like say "wrath" lightly..."     "Yeah, well... I'm still not sure..."     "Hey Wheatley and Chuck saw it too!  They believe!"     "Next you're gonna tell me Ivan and Greener and Boris saw it too..."     "Okay, I just hope you're not doing meth...  That's all I have to say..."     (Artist rendering of Meth Hunter as described by an alleged meth user...  "He was just smiling and beating the shit out of me , with like a poker...")

Lost Boys & Co... R asta Pete casts a long shadow...  Making sure the conditions are to his liking before taking the plunge. H azy sun this morning and 15 miles visibility.  Winds were calm, before turning onshore for most of the late morning.  The sea surface was smooth.  The air temperature was 62.2˚ and the water was 59.5˚.  High tide was at 7:26am +4.0' and low tide will be at 1:31pm +0.8'.  We have a SSW swell out of 198˚ at 3.3' and it was 3' to 4'.  Bigger than Tuesday it's supposed to be a big heftier mañana, check'em out... M eanwhile, on Lake Guia on the El Salvador, Guatemala border, LoLa navigates her way through the volcanic outcroppings on the southern edge.  These glassy-calm inlets are home to egrets, herons, vultures and serve as breeding grounds for talapia, cuatro ojos and catfish.  There was also a spectacular bloom of bright green algae that looked damned near fluorescent.  Nothing quite so calming as a paddle on these tranquil water

Lost Boys & Co... S ome tiny ones this morning, but did that stop Vishnevsky, Leko, Garcia, McTaggart & Paine.  Hell, NO!  (They sound like a law firm...)  Clear skies and 20+ miles visibility.  Winds were offshore by 2.7kts and the sea surface was smooth.  The air temperature was 64.3˚ and the water was 59.2˚, which makes it 2˚ colder than it was on New Year's Day!  High tide was floating it at 6:38am +3.9' and low tide was at 12:58pm +0.7'.  We have a 2.3' swell out of 210˚ SSW and it was effectively half of the swell height.  Supposed to get better as the week progresses... A s most of you know Ken Norris, Genevieve Carlisle's longtime companion, passed away a few weeks ago.  On May 3, at 4:30pm there will be a memorial for Ken at the New Horizons Clubhouse.  Everyone is invited to come, have a sip of Sailor Jerry's™ and Coke™ and share your favorite Ken stories...  Here he is in the cockpit of an F-86 Sabre Jet.  Not quite Mach 1 but getting close...

Lost Boys & Co... B abies come from storks.  Storks come from here...  Questions? (Marrakesh, Morocco) S ome clouds early this morning, clearing as the day progressed and 15 miles visibility.  Winds were on light from the west at 3.3kts and there was a bit of light chop on the sea surface.   The air was a brisk 57.3˚ and the water was only a tad better at 61.5˚, but refreshing!  Low tide was at 7:58am -0.1' and high tide will follow at 2:56pm +3.4'.  We have a combo WSW swell out of 254˚, 3.9' at the buoy and it's 2' in the surf.  We could get some waves if the northern push of the swell which is actually at 320˚, drops closer to 300˚.  We're watching... G ather around the firepit at Bluewater Grill on Friday for a bit of the happy hour hoo-mali-mali.  If Danger Boy comes we turn off the fire, so dress warmly!  5:30pm for all of you who require that kind of chronological order... T he country of El Salvador runs west to east, so the coast faces south.  This

Lost Boys & Co... S traight outta Alfred Hitchcock's "The Birds" we have this shot of LoLa in the pool being photo bombed by this El Salvadorian avian predator.  She claimed it was because she had on her bikini and the bird took exception.  We're thinking it was all timing...  By the way, it's not a Torogoz, the national bird of El Salvador... B ack here stateside, we have overcast skies and 15 miles visibility.  Winds were offshore at checkout by 2.7kts and the sea surface was smooth.  The clarity was impressive and the water temperature was 61.0˚ and the air was 56.9˚.  Low tide was at 6:57am -0.5' and high tide will raise the sea level to +3.6 at 1:34pm.  We have a SSW swell out of 195˚ at 2.6' and we're getting about half of that at most spots.  It's supposed to get better as we creep toward the weekend...  T hen there's this stencil that's popped up damned-near everywhere in the last 24 hours.  We've got our best men on the job

Hi! How are you? Have you seen this http://gourmet-belgian-chocolate.com/dare.php before? Oprah had been using it for over a year! Frank Paine Sent from Yahoo Mail for iPhone

Lost Boys & Co... O n what planet is this underwear?  Actually, we found this on the planet Target...  If you don't wear conventional underwear, you can cover your naughty bits with one of these... H azy sun with 15 miles visibility.  Winds were light offshore by 3.7kts and the sea surface was smooth. The air temp was 56.0˚ and the water was 61.9˚.  High tide was at 9:32am +4.6' and low tide will follow at 3:33pm +0.5'.  We have a WSW swell out of 241˚ at 3.6'.  In the water it was 3' to 4' and one of those fun wind swell days when Hermosa looks almost like someplace else...  Don't tell anyone, they'd go to Hermosa instead of the other place... O kay, we're out for two weeks and the report will either be sporadic or on hiatus.  Visiting El Salvador for waves, wedding and relaxation...  See ya' when we get back... S urf Tip #107:  Don't leave your wax on top of the tire when you go surfing.  If you do, make sure and remove it before you ba

Lost Boys & Co... B ack in the 70's everyone smoked and drank Miller...  There was "Miller Time" but there wasn't any Miller Lite™ yet...  Not Jane Fonda and Roger Vadim, but Suzanne and Joey.  Very continental... V ery cloudless this morning and 15 miles visibility.  No wind and the sea surface was smooth.  The air temp was a spring-like 53.3˚ and the water was 61.5˚.  High tide was at 9:00am +4.7' and low tide will be at 3:10pm for all of those surf hungry students.  We have a 4.6' swell out of 279˚ west and it's 4' to 5' at most spots... M eanwhile, in Hermosa the Beach, Kris Hall was exploring the "inner limits of pure fun®."  Both Anthony Renna (in the water) and Peggy Stone (on the beach) caught the same moment...  You can depend on something special happening when Kris is in the water...  ✠ "When the surf breaks, we'll fix it..."  The Professor!!

Lost Boys & Co... S o, ya wanna live to be 96?  Genevieve is shown here at her great granddaughters 22nd birthday party and she is sporting proper eye wear, is bundled up and is smoking a filtered cigarette.  She's pretty happy except for the fact that the beer needs to be opened and she's thirsty... now! S peaking of birthdays, today is Tio Ted's birthday.  You don't have to bother making any April Fool's jokes, he's heard them all... C learing skies this morning with 10 miles visibility.  Winds were offshore by 2.2kts and the sea surface was smooth.  The air temperature was 57.3˚ and the water was 62.6˚.  Just by chance, we picked up our logs for 2008, seven years ago and on this date the water temp was 55.6˚!  High tide was at 8:27am +4.7' and low tide will be at 2:46pm +0.2'.  We have a west swell out of 275˚ at 4.3' and it's 4' to 5' at most spots with some bigger outsides... M eanwhile at Roca Sunzal, in El Salvador, the tide wa
