Jellies

[Tuna Devil]

I am going to show my age / ignorance now,
What does takin on the jellies mean?
Do I want to take them on?
Should I take them on?

If I take them on will my boat run better?

[jerry]

good question. I was too chicken to ask

[vicious fishesdred]

"takin on the jellys " was from the movie (cartoon ) finding nemo , the turtle with the burnout surfer voice said that .When i was out that night swording 2 other guys were deep in the little jellyfish, and were complaining of it hence the quote.

Cool,

Now I can sleep at night. I thought that was what it was but I have a hard time keeping up with the times. :lol:

Again, congratulations on your trip the other night.

Steve:

Have a seat, and relax. Can I offer you a Mojito and a Cigar. No. Coño. What does that mean? Pretend you are a Cuban, living in the USA, for just a moment. Our entire culture is comprised from various immigrent groups: It just so happens South Florida is mostly comprised mostly of Carribean/S.A. immigrents (or from NY and/or Israel), sorry not to mention very much about the first settlers. The word Coño is a spanish word from Cuban roots, maybe further back to Spain even. But I suspect Western Hemisphere culture, Coño. Basically, it means Shit, by English equivalence. But then again, in Spanish culture, you can kick it up a notch, or make it mundane, all by the emphasis you play on the word. You could have two entirely different meanings by someone yelling Coño, or saying it softly as, Coño, or simply ño. In Miami, you might even hear the gentle, Ño, which is different that the, No, which , by the way means, No in english. Ño. :razz:

I really doubt if Disco Lady will make you understand, due to the limited vocabulary that she has expressed, to date. Maybe, she will surprise you, too. :?: I can't wait until she starts using the terms Carajo and Puñeta: such fine language from a Lady.

:idea: Haha, its starting to make sense now :idea: lol

[Relentless33]

I just figured it was someones name or something like that

[Disco Lady]

CONO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :shock: very well said RT, but in my terms it is a spanish thing that I can't get rid of. My wife says that I have a bad vocabulary, but I can't help it. She gets a dollar every time that I say Cono!! soon she will be rich!! :lol: :lol: Its stands for dam or Wow. I say it when I catch a nice fish. Just like addictive fishing says MOGAN!.

[njoimia]

disc lady for sure is just joking....... people need to relax on this website...... just fish, work and do your thing.... i dont write much here cause I dont need to, dont care. I dont need to put pictures of my fish, dont care. Lets all get along. Looks like we will be able to fish, Tues and beyond....

...i wasnt worked up about "cono", i was simply curious as im sure 3/4 of the people on here that have seen DL's posts are.

and RT, you can definatly offer me a cigar... I prefer a Cohiba Churchill.. Cubans are best, but a nice dominican will do. :lol:

SF123:

I can only offer you a cigar if you invite me to go fishing on your boat.

You must understand that I am a hopeless boat jumper, until further notice. I will always try to offer all the skills and equipment at my disposal to make the next fishing trip a good one. You may realize that my primary nautical conveyance is a 31' Sloop which is not very conducive to getting anywhere very fast, including the swordfishing grounds within a 12 hour window. So I always need a little help from my friends in the boat dept.

SF123- I can make some Killer Mojitos, but the only cigars that I can offer you are Dominicans. Will Opus X - Lancero suffice? Actually I do have one Cuban Cohiba left that my friend brought over. So if you prefer that, sure no problem.

The only thing worse than a boat jumper, is an Island Jumper. Sorry it is just in my blood now. After so many Columbus Day regattas, if you are afraid to boat jump, you are missing half of the flavor. Just so long as someone in charge of the vessel stays aboard and you can still manage to find your vessel in pitch darkness. Either reflective tape on the hull or the smell of fresh sqeezed lemon drops can lead you back

RT,

Next time Retreat is in the states its a deal. She is now making home at Boat Harbour for marlin season. I will staying on it and working on the 48' Viking, Wolverine for the BBC during the may and june when i get out of school. I think once July rolls around she will come back to lauderdale.

Maybe in a couple years when i graduate you'll be in the market for a Jarrett Bay Custom and I find one for ya. I hope to be working for a sportfish brokerage living in fl. when i graduate.

for now, i'd smoke that cuban if i were you
