In Response To: A sneak peek *Pic* (Dale Frolander)

: My supervisor at work let me use the digital camera so I took some pictures
: and here's what I've been up to. I designed this kayak using the bearboat
: software. I'm naming the kayak design "Albatross". The name for
: this particular kayak is "Dream Weaver" for the woven pattern on
: the deck.

A great looking boat! .... I really like the deck pattern. I just hope that it doesn't live up to the second definition of its "Albatross" name ("a constant, worrisome burden")... which is the definition which comes to my mind whenever I hear that word. (I know that the first definition of an albatross is a web-footed seabird, but I've seen, heard, and used the second definition more.) If you go around saying, "my kayak is an albatross!", people may interpret that differently than you intend!
