If you want to have some fun with the customs man, offer him $200 to carry your bags. :jestercolor:

Lol, if my memory is correct, you should be getting married in a couple of weeks from now. I should be back in the Ochi area in July for something large that's sort of hush hush now ;-)

I think 7.......all I know is that a week from now I'll be flying over Cuba filling out my customs forms. I packed a bunch of pens since the planes never seem to have any.......in hindsight I should of had some printed up with the forum's info--- good for marketing!

Today I decided to add my ice fishing rod, a little 18" rod and reel to my luggage. I know if I go snorkeling and see all of the cute fish I will want to kill some so the rod is easier than poking at them with my knife.

I also added 150 yards of "spider wire"---- a braided fishing line that at 80lbs looks like 15 lbs of mono line. Almost all of my bracelets from Jamaica have fallen apart due to the shitty mono line they use to build them. Lol, I'm going to change the way Jamaica makes bracelets.....or at least exchange $20 worth of spider wire for a few of them if I find the right vendor.

While I'm creating a list of added stuff:

Some spray on sun tan lotion, I can never seem to find a victim to rub lotion on my back where I can't reach on my own.

8 pairs of socks-- I'll donate them as always so my "sock bandit" does not steal them at home.

A pair of nice sandals that vanished since my first reach to Jamaica.

My water shoes so I'll have a little defense when those Nazi sea urchins attack me :-o

Polarized filters for my cameras so that damn sun does white wash my pictures.

CD's to burn pictures for people....Ashley included if she drives her ass to Negril to get her wedding pictures :clown: Speaking of which, I have not seen her outside of her own thread on this forum for months..... :naughty:

My countdown list of stuff is getting shorter..... I just have to print my tickets, cut my toe nails, shave my balls, weave my dreadlocks, and charge my cell phone :jestercolor:

Spray-on sun block! Why didn't I think of that? I'm gonna get some for my next trip, too. That'll save me a bundle. The last person to rub anything on me in Jamaica was the old higgler ooman down the beach from Alfred's who gave me the unsolicited/unwanted aloe massage as I tried to get away while demanding that I come with her to see her "tings." That cost me a few USDs, too!

Sun block........

In the spray cans that I found it only comes in SPF 45, 30 and 4. The 45 & 30 say right on the can that they will prevent you from getting a suntan so WTF is the purpose? I've lived the past XX years without suntan lotion staying in the shade with a few exceptions. The SPF 4 is a "tanning oil" IMHO, it's a tan or sun burn in a can and it's a flip of a coin that dictates what you walk away with.

So........ I started to research tanning. People (internet people so don't trust them) suggest a 45 SPF for the first few days and then a SPF 30 for a week and then lower numbers as your skin darkens. The whole thing sounds sort of girlish to me...... waking up and picking what type of SPF to wear...yawn...yawn.

I'll stay in the shade but protect my head and nads when I venture into the sun :-)

Eco, I'll be out of town again this weekend, so if I don't catch you before you depart, have a great trip! Don't forget to pack condoms. Have a shot or two of overproof for me. And on your return flight, if you can't resist the urge to light up one last time in the plane's head and are caught, just claim diplomatic immunity and make some lame joke about setting your shoes on fire. You'll be golden! :thumbup:

I'll be around until Tuesday morning.....heck, I've been around for the past month but I've been so busy with work I have not been around....just spinning around before I leave :scratchheadblue:

Your "new" car must be on it's 3rd set of tires now with all of your weekend trips :lol:

Condoms are the only thing I have not packed, now I'm back to 2 full suitcases :roll: I have no more room for anything.

Since my return flight is at 8am, that means I need to be at the airport at 5am.....means leaving Negril at 230am....means I'll still be 4 sheets to the wind. With two layovers on the way back and a ride from the airport to my home, I'll be able to stay out of my mind until I get home :rock:
