Called Surf City on Thursday and she said that my "ski" was scheduled to be done on Saturday so I rode off into the wild blue Saturday morning. I tried to convince Chris to come by making the deal that we'd spend half the time going his speed and the other half going mine. He bought it initially but when it came time to commit he rode back with mom. Had a great time jumping wakes, making high speed sharp turns and generally getting wet. But...
After riding for some 20 minutes it lost power and a "check engine" alert came up on the console. I called Surf City and they asked me ride it back so they could hook it up to their analyzer. I put it on one of the pads outside the shop and they tossed out a cable that attached to the wiring harness somewhere. After a few minutes the tech came out, tightened the wire on the coil and told me it was good to go.
Nadeem and I went to Atlantic City on Sunday 6/3 and had lunch at Hooters. The plan was to walk the boardwalk and smoke a cigar but it was raining heavily so we stood under an overhang and smoked and talked.

Nothing is really work unless you would rather be doing something else.
J.M. Barrie
What's not possible is not to choose
Jean-Paul Sartre
Man had always assumed that he was more intelligent than dolphins because he had achieved so much . . . the wheel, New York, wars, and so on, whilst all the dolphins had ever done was muck about in the water having a good time. But conversely the dolphins believed themselves to be more intelligent than man for precisely the same reasons.
Douglas Adams (1952-2001), THE HITCHHIKER’S GUIDE TO THE GALAXY
I saw him even now going the way of all flesh, that is to say towards the kitchen.
John Webster (1580-1625)
When I play with my cat, who knows whether she is not amusing herself with me more than I with her?
Michel de Montaigne (1533-92)
"Business!" cried the Ghost, wringing its hands again. "Mankind was my business. The common welfare was my business; charity, mercy, forbearance, and benevolence, were, all, my business. The dealings of my trade were but a drop of water in the comprehensive ocean of my business!"
Charles Dickens (1812-1870)
