Yes and no.
When I opened the thread your latest post had my name as poster. Thus I could make alteration to the post, with this question:
I was wondering how you had been able to use my identity to post as me.
Next time I looked things were as normal, with you as poster.
It now looked as if I had somehow made alteration to YOUR post.
Can anybody explain how that could happened??
Aren’t you a bit late to pick the day when the grapes are ripe?
Ok. Dr.Bugge. Lets investigate cause I still do not get it what I have posted under your name .
So I have made a short video from the gCapt forum screen I see on my laptop Attached below.
Then I will save the page -whole content as pdf and revert with my comments/observation.
One thing I have noticed what is strange is that your posts with pics showe: Source: Redirecting and this is a link to some FB page called Historic Vessel Vega .
I will examine your other posts if these contain same link .
Cheers
Sure I remember .
PUDDLE- Coastie; Coast Guard
KAYDET- Student at West Point Military Academy
The common English translation is “Seize the day”.
Agree, but is that the correct translation from Latin original?:

What is BUBBLEHEAD?
What is HONOR NAZI ?
Fairly recent nickname for a US submariner, originally from the large helmets worn by the security force at the US Naval Submarine School in New London, Connecticut. Not sure how it migrated over to the boat crews.

Whip the fag end of the fardage line, sailor. Translate that.

DeKerchove (1948) does not have fardage. But it’s on the interwebs as dunnage. Since I expect dunnage is normally secured by the act of placing it, I have to suspect this is in the category of fifty feet of water line and a bucket of steam.

No Sir! It is a legit nautical order. Generally British. A fardage line is a dunnage line like you would use to secure pipe. Fag end is a British term for bitter end of a line. Whipping is whipping. So you can whip the bitter end of a dunnage line.
