scratching the anchor on the 'Flying Wasp'

As we wait for our dinner to finish cooking, I thought it best to write our first official post.  We're christening this blog-ship with a lovely bottle of Chardonnay, and we feel most fancy.

This space prior tonight, consisting of exactly 0 posts, had been quite intimidating.  Hopefully this first entry will serve to curb our reservations and inspire future posting.  Posts full of charm, idiosyncratic though it may be. Better form to follow this week.

We're away to finish off the bottle, eat our Greek baked fish and tapenade, and celebrate NOT watching what's-his-face's national address on 'Wrong War at the Wrong Time'.  We'll be sure to hear all about it come tomorrow.

Bon Voyage

PS  This has been a most frustrating time: I was expecting Tom (he has a colorful and mysterious sailing past) to be most helpful in contributing to the ship metaphors.  I, unfortunately, find him to be most lacking on this topic.
