Good morning all,
Sorry, I didn't show up yesterday evening as I came very late and exhausted from the airport. Geez we nearly had a disaster in the afternoon due to violent storms. A tornado formed and swept everything on its way. Empty containers ( 200 pounds each ) were sucked 150 feet hight like simple plastic bags and crashed on cars and parked planes. Fortunately nobody was injured and the tornado didn't hit a landing or taking off plane. It was so sudden, brief, violent and impressive. The worse is this phenomenom is totally unknown in our country. Are weather conditions changing all over the world ?
Spongebob, I remember you, me wet at Gibi's three weeks ago, and the debate is open to name the blue tang. I follow Cynde, I like "Ol Blue", this is one of my favorite dive :o)
I am having a nice fresh coffee, Diana, Igor, Martin, Annie, are you there to share ? Too early for the East Coaster, they are still sleeping.

Good morning Martine,
I'm having the coffeee as well
Woohoo, what a storm you are describing. Looks really like the climate is changing. In Holland the storm was less severe.

Let's vote for the names!!
Of course I stick to Mr and mrs Piggy

Morning Diana,
Here's your coffee
I do appreciate to be off today and for four days. I just wish to relax even if I have a LOT of home work to do.
I am counting the votes...
Have a nice day.

Thanks for the coffee, Martine
Enjoy your days off!

Now we have to wait for the sunrises in Bonaire!!

I bet the first one to wake up on the other side will be Eileen !

How did you guess Martine?? My vote will go for Ol'Blue, do not get me wrong, I do like Mr. & Mrs. Piggy but I like Ol' Blue.

The weather patterns are changing all over the world. Our climate here in S. Ontario is getting warmer. Not as much snow as we used to get during the winter.

And, you have a 4 day weekend! Right now I am going in to work really early (Thank-you in advance for posting sunrises for me!) and will probably come home late. The weekend is near and I have nothing planned but relaxation!

Morning Early Bird,
Vote counted !
I will post the sunrise for you ( Diana will help too )
Have a nice day. Nice coffee cup ?

Thank-you for the coffee! Thank-you to Diana too, I look forward to seeing them tonight, it is going to be a long day today. I must go now . I wish you Martine and Diana an wonderful day! Have a great day to all!

Good guess, Martine

I must be a hidden medium ... Perhaps I can turn a fortune teller when I retire, combined with the cam cleaning job, of course.
Talking about cam cleaning, the cam needs to be cleaned urgent. Jake, don't we have some volunteers this week or do I have to go back and do the job myself ?

At last, the day is breaking. This first light is for you Eileen.

And on the other side, some light as well,

Getting clearer on the other side.

And now, a panoramical view.

Vista Pink. Could be a new dive site name...

You were ahead of me for that one, Martine.
I go off for lunch now, see you later!!

Have a nice lunch Diana, sunrises are under control :o)

Good afternoon/morning Martine, Diana & Eileen.
Sounds like scary stuff Martine! I guess some people would panic if they saw that and where sitting in a plane.
Finally your long weekend is here: enjoy it, u deserved it!
First Reefcam Light

By the way I'm still sticking with Mr. & Ms. Piggy (of course )! It makes a lot of sense 2 me. I don't think it's nice 2 call all the blue tangs old...

good morning! my vote is for ol'blue! wow Martine, sounds like you had a very scary day! We have tornado activity around these parts, very dangerous! I hope you get good rest next few days.

Morning Igor,
I gues so ! It truly was very impressive, and I understand now how the big US ones are so devastating.

Morning Kerri,
Vote counted !
At the present time this is equality. Have you got your coffee, I still have from this morning.

good morning Igor! yes Martine I picked up a cup when you and Eileen were sharing!

Fine !

Well, will this guy be named after Mr Mrs Piggy or Ol blue
Between us, I think we have a Dutch coalition :o)

Another beautiful piggy, oops, sorry, I mean pinky one.

Hi Kerri!
LOL Martine. In dutch there's a connection between a blue tang and a pig. That's why the name is obvious (well, sort of )!

This little fishie says "Hi all"

Woohoo, Jaaaake , do you see what we see ?
Absolutely nothing

ROFL Martine! "Say it again..."
I guess Jake is waiting 4 a volunteer.
Sigh, okay, okay, I'll go...

Still nice pinky ( I wrote right this time ) colours. Need to go to the store now.

Where did everybody go???

See u later Martine

Good morning to all!
LaDonna

Igor, I definitely think I have to go back to do the job, but this time I will charge Jake all the expenses. ( Igor, don't repeat it, I just say that on purpose, I think Jake could fear a too expensive bill, then he may clean the cam after breakfast or worse, he could name volunteer the first one appearing on the street cam )
This is called "strategy"

If youn look REALLY close. I think there are divers in there somewhere?!?!?!
LaDonna

peek-a-boo

Morning Ladonna,
Maybe it is THE cam cleaner ?

We can hope!!!!
LaDonna

Still lovely pinky tones.

Hi Igor, Kerri and LaDonna,
What about your vote LaDonna?
I agree with Igor ; not every Blue tang likes to be called Old!!

Diana, do you think Grendal would apreciate to be called "cat" ? LOL.
I do confirm, this is a Durch coalition...
How was your lunch ?

Hi LaDonna.
Don't know about the divers. We will never know...

pssst Martine, I won't tell. Sounds like your a real strategist. Watch out Jacques Chirac, here comes Martine

I kinda like Mr Mrs Piggy myself.
LaDonna

So u speak german as well Martine?

Ha, I just knew LaDonna was a sweet, lovely, smart & beautiful woman

I think you meant Dutch?? Lunch was good, thanks Martine.

I swear I am impartial...
Listen Dutchies and LaDonna, how could you name a SINGLE fish Mr AND Mrs, ugh, how do you explain ?
( This is also strategy )

Ok, OK, you can laugh, the day has just started and the votes close TONACHT !
Yes, I speak german.
Igor, I don't like your strategy... If I am elected President to replace Jacques Chirac, you'll be my Prime Minister. We both are very clever :o)

Hmm, Martine. How do you know if our blue tang is single? He just might have a great mate somewhere

WOW!!!

Igor, just because he appears single on the cam !
Afterall, perhaps he is an OLD bachelor...
I got you on that one :o)

Does that mean we get 2 go 2 Bonaire 4 state-affairs? I bet it does. When will we start campaigning?
By the way: it was Mr. Piggy 4 the male blue tang and Ms. Piggy 4 the females.

ROFL Martine! Touché

Re-WOW !!!
Need to go to the store...

Coulé would be more appropriate Igor...

Let explain for those who do not speak french.
It refers to this famous game " Naval Battle"
Touché means "hit" Coulé means "sunk" !
Let's go to the store now, if not, I'll never go.

What a beautiful sight!!!
LaDonna

Re-re-WOW !!!

Good Morning ALL,
you have been busy this morning. Martine I am glad that you were safe during the storm and not hurt.
Since blue is my favorite color I have to go with blue. In difference to the old part for Igor we can call them blue fish as in dr suess blue fish red fish green fish. one fish two fish three fish. I forget which book it was in.
Last night I got three numbers out of six won a big 3.00 but the good news is it rolled over and now is 45 million. Rusty if you read this if I win the lotto already told hubby I am taking you to bonaire because you need to get to go.

LOL Martine! Damn, you are good
We should start a new party right away!

See u later Martine, Again

GMTA LaDonna, I do not understand why your vote goes for Mr Mrs Piggy then. LOL
I am going !

Truly amazing colours this morning.
Igor, we'll start another party when I am back, OK ?

Hi Christine!
So are we all invited?
Hmm, I think we need 2 start a new thread: http://www.oldbonairetalk.com/newsgroup/messages/626/101404.html?1058442950
