My View of Life on the Dock
Ahhhhhhh it’s over! I had a great night. Sharon did a great job, hell everyone did a great job. The truth is that with all the great people we have helping to make it a success each time I’m always nervous that there’s going to be some catastrophe the whole week leading up to them.
I’m sure Jay Albert at Cape Ann Images will have some great pictures of the event.
It’s over, on to the next project.
Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.
Slide Show coming at 8AM. I’m still looking for students or proud parents that would like to cover other GHS sports for GMG. Let me know.

Tonight’s the night for the Hoola Hoopla at the Block Party! The fun will start at 6 with the little kids and wind up at 8:30 when the adults finish! Bring your hoops and your hips and show Gloucester what you got!
A huge thank you goes out to Toni at Tara Montessori, Rich at Iron Rail Gymnastics, and Jen at Metamorphosis Fitness for lending us hoops. And to Carmine at Friendly’s for donating the prizes. Real community spirit!
I will have the GLOSTA -phobic T-shirts with me for $15 each. Sizes L and XL.
Come join the fun at the corner of Main and Center St.!
What makes this guy so pimp? Is it the vintage Kingsford visor circa 1978? Is it the multiple pairs of safety glasses that he wears for no apparent reason? I don’t know but he is the first in the Pimp! series that will be a new feature on GMG. Always reinventing, always bringing new features- GMG PIMP!
Who won?
You’ll just have to stay tuned. We have a series of four more videos leading up including Chef’s Lisa Van Sand and Jessica O’Leary From The Atlantis.
Next video at 8AM
Good times!

There’s been plenty of buzz about Mommies Who Shop events, now in our 3rd year, where in-the-know Moms from all over shop the latest and greatest from indie designers. In a recent attendee survey, you said you wanted a “BIG sale” event. You spoke, and we listened. Let’s talk…
CLEARANCE!!
With economic woes weighing down even the most “impassioned” shoppers, this event is guilt-free… Over 30 of the region’s best clothing, jewelry and accessory designers all on hand selling their end-of-season wares at liquidation prices – up to 70% off! Plus sneak peaks of their new must-haves for Fall. Join us on Tuesday, September 29th from 6-9pm at the Essex Room (behind Woodman’s in Essex) for our 1st ever Super Sale! And the fun doesn’t stop there! We have some loot to give away! Our friends at Hip Baby Gear (soon adding their 3rd location!) have scored us a Stokke Tripp Trapp High Chair! Thanks, Hip Baby Gear!

Schooner Crash Pictures From Kay Ellis, originally uploaded by captjoe06.
Hi Joe,
We sure had fun sailing the Lannon on Race Day. It is always exciting, especially at the start when all the schooners are jockeying for position, trying to be at full speed right at the start line, without using engines. The most horrifying part of the Race was captured by several of our passengers. Attached are a couple of shots of the collision, which happened just off our port bow as we were approaching the line. They were taken by Christina Hays of Gloucester.
There was a collision between the Spirit of Bermuda (big black schooner) and Perception (small white schooner). Both had come up on the line a bit early and were trying to stall so that they didn’t go over the line before the bell. You can see the Spirit’s bowsprit in the rigging of Perception. The small schooner suffered a snapped main boom. No one was hurt, which was amazing given the five foot swell and the pounding of the Spirit’s bowsprit on the Perception’s deck.

Chelsea (played by legendary 21-year-old adult film star Sasha Grey) is an upscale Manhattan call girl who provides more than just a sexual encounter; for a price, she’ll simulate a complete romantic relationship—a girlfriend “experience.” Despite a wide variety of happy customers, Chelsea wants to expand her business. Her real boyfriend Chris, a personal trainer at a downtown gym, has come to terms with his girlfriend’s level of experience, not to mention the posh apartment they share as a result of her success. Directed by Steven Soderbergh, who won an Oscar for “Traffic,” and didn’t win an Oscar for “Ocean’s Eleven,” “Ocean’s Twelve” or “Ocean’s Thirteen.”
