Day 38 - Messy

Today held promise as the funk caused by the wind overnight helped create the perception that there would be a number of opportunities for turns and decent rides.  We got in at the right time, as the maxed-out 6.2' tide was on the decline, at about 10:30, but it just was not meant to be.  I think I made the comment to Jay that it is nice to actually "drop in" on a wave (after my first wave) and at this time the session still held promise.  The comment was made because we had a week of fairly small waves for which "drop-in" would have been a misnomer to describe the start of a wave. However, today's promise never turned into anything tangible.  The breeze slowly turned into a gale and the conditions went from bad to worse.  I caught a few waves, but I was mostly frustrated.  I came back up and burried myself in the editing bay for a solid 8 hours straight.  I was working on figuring out how to produce a multi-camera segment.  I love clowning around with video, I don't know why, but trust me, it is just that, clowning.  You will certainly be hard pressed to see a sententious segment created off of my desktop. 

This is the kind of genius I strive for:

Darth Vader being a smartass

No fluff, just cuts in the right places - It probably says a lot about me.  Thanks to Jason for sending me this.
