Update RAR's troubles


FROM EARLIER POST;

RAR (Run-aground Ralph) has had female problems ever since he moved onto the canal 17 years ago. We've know 2 Mrs. Ralph's and the current female residing in his abode, Hot Tamale. If you remember, Hottie first came to the canal with Manny from Miami but their relationship cooled after RAR began to openly woo Hottie.

The current Mrs. Run-aground Ralph is in the process of divorcing him but it hasn't gone smoothly. Run-aground Ralph has a very smart Lawyer who writes nearly air tight pre-nuptial agreements. Nearly means almost, some leakage, slightly porous and Mrs. Run-aground Ralph may have found an out.

She and her attorney have interpreted a clause about co-mingling of funds and they contend that it revokes the agreement.

See you in court!

UPDATE;

Mrs. Run-aground Ralph is really starting trouble and she has first hand experience. "Bitch turned me in to the IRS," said Ralph to Cap'n Crunch and Pensacola Slim.

"That is truly underhanded. That could cost you a bundle. I'd pay her off before she finds out about... ah... never mind," said Cap'n Crunch.

"Once she opened that mess, there is little you can do to put the lid back on," said Pensacola Slim. "I think it would be cheaper to pay her off and be done with the nag!"

"She wants the house..." Pensacola Slim sat up in a startled way, "Which house?" RAR squirmed for a moment before he said, "The canal house, of course!" RAR in fact has 4 houses, one in Minnesota, one outside Atlanta, one in Key West and the one on the Dead End Canal.

"She must really have the goods on you," said Pensacola Slim. After that revelation the little gathering broke up. RAR had a big decision to make.

During the Happy hour gathering at the 'Pukin Pelican', RAR's dilemma leaked out. Not from Pensacola Slim but from notoriously loose lipped, Cap'n Crunch. Some of us suspected the RAR wanted his dilemma made public so as to garner sympathy. We think he'll need character witness and was playing us.

"What a pig he is," said Boston Bob, "his current wife is gorgeous. Twenty five years younger and a real pleasant person."

"I'm glad you said person and not woman," said Hard Luck Hanna from Texarkana. "She's just as much a gold digger as Hottie."

"My Hottie is not a Gold digger," Manny said indignantly. "She really cares for Senor' Ralph."

"Bullshit, she dumped you because that bastard Preacher burned you on the Silver Ponzi Scheme," said Hanna.

"You are too cruel, Hanna! I have plenty of money for me and hottie," said Manny.

"Lighten up Hanna, Manny will get some of that money back, maybe," said Cleveland Jack.

"We're all going to be called as character witness', maybe not me because I know he has no character but for sure the rest of you," I said. "He's got bodies buried everywhere. You can't amass a fortune like he's got without burying some bodies."  

“Why does he still live on the canal? He can live in a mansion on Captiva Island according to his boosts. Could it be he can't explain where the money came from,” said Boston Bob answering his own question.

“He will if she has her way,” said Hanna. She nearly spilled her beer while chuckling.

Poor Ralph, a woman scorned and all! More to come!

The End of a Fort Myers Beach Circus Connection!

         When 91 year old Kel Egony passed away recently in Lee Memorial Hospital not many of his fellow Danes would ever have guessed that would be the place he would draw his final breathe. In his youth in Denmark, 14 year old Kel wanted to be an airplane mechanic but when the Germans invaded, his family insisted he change apprenticeships to became a mason.           Kel Jorgensen was too young to be conscripted by the Nazi's but old enough to work for the underground. Their jobs were especially difficult since the occupying German soldiers spoke fluent Danish after growing up in Denmark because of food shortages in Germany after the first World War. Still, his unit smuggled 3,000 Jews to neutral Sweden through enemy held territory before the war ended.            After the war, Kel and his brother Jorgen Jorgensen started a death defying circus act involving spinning around 75 feet in th...

Boating; Captain Manny Lee and Corazon Frisbee!

Image
  In response to a recent blog/column, I received a picture of the new 'Corazon Frisbee', the one year old queen of Cap'n Manny Lee's Marshall sloop sailboat named after her ; Captain Manny Lee and Corazon Frisbee are living large in the Florida Keys @ Bone Island Bob's private marina in Islamorada, Florida, mile marker 74.5. Private Charters aboard his boat from one to five passengers. Throwing the Frisbee for 'Sweetie Corazon' is no charge but remember she never quits just like her predecessor. For her birthday she received a new coconut (husk and all) along with a few other treats. The coconut husk is great dental floss. On your way through the Keys stop and say hello to Manny and Corazon. http://www.mannylee.com/index.html CAPTAIN McCLUSKY SAILING CHARTERS | 74540 Overseas Highway, Islamorada, FL 33036 | 281-508-7174

Remembering The Split Rail Restaurant?

Image
Does Anyone Else Remember The Split Rail Restaurant? It was once a favorite place for beach ppl for breakfast and lunch. Us younger members of the “Dead End Canal Yacht Club” could pull our small boats up to the rickety dock and have a beer and a few chicken wings in the late afternoon. I'm sure you've guessed that I write of a long ago era before happy hours became the rage. Circa 1990! My wife, Marion and I lived at the Boardwalk Caper which was a boater's paradise but not on the DEC. We ate breakfast often at the Split Rail and I attribute much of my heart problems to those delicious heart cloggers. Me, myself and I ate there three mornings a week for a solid 15 years because my office was on the beach. I'm not sure how many Greek immigrants began washing dishes so they could learn to bus tables then run the fryer and fry the eggs before becoming the owner but I remember a half dozen. It used to be a great way to chain migrate to America but all good...
