   Charlotte Observer did nice one for us.. I like the video link ath top best,  I  think it really captures how much raw fun Sean and I had on this Challenge..   This whole Watertribe thing has been such a neat adventure that I think Im addicted... I'm definetely thinking and talking too much about it, and never did any internet media before this..

   Addicted maybe, infected is more like it. There is no cure except to repeat the EC. Slightly cheaper than a cocaine addiction. Maybe a different vessel for the next one. Wife might say no, remember marriage is about compromise. Congrats on your achievement. DWM

   Compromise is right.  Last year my wife was so worried that she made me promise not to row the EC again.  

   So I had to learn to kayak.

   DWM & BO:

   I'm definetely addicted in  a bad way... i'm n a biz trip to Asia this week, and have spend every flying and waking hour trying to finish a "written recollection" of everything that happend on our trip. Problem is I have so many good memories and dumb stories that the  friggin things going to be so long, no one is going to be interested in reading past the first paragraph...

   Im working on my wife already on the compromise thing, big hurdle is that next april is our 25th anniversary, and she's UNFAIRLY saying that instead of me dumping electronics and cash into the Gulf of Mexico,  I should be saving up 4-5 thousand to bring some shiny piece of rock out of an South African mine onto her finger.. 

   Btw. Penguinman if you are out there reading tribe posts,  I sent you my contact info by email and hoping you got itdrop me an email with yours:

   For the diamond problem have a "Date night" at home and watch Blood Diamonds. Cured Mrs. Mullet of the desire for a large shiny rock. Also inform her you have just raised your life insurance payout so she can dream of large homes and endless Spa sessions should something bad happen during the challenge. You just have to remind her that the spouse is the number one suspect if your demise was suspicious. You don't want her getting any ideas, and if you notice an almond flavor in any of your beverages, spit it out. DWM

   I thought compromise was a compound word from the Spanish base "comprar" meaning to buy and miserly.

   You must comprar for your significant other. Budget amount varies, but if your partner knows about your vessel, PLB, gas money, etc, then you should be generous.

   You must be miserly in your own endeavors, thus enabling the spousal reflective EC budget.
