  • First I said F$@# why didn't I start a stupid blog about shipping... then confusion... now I just think you're an ass*@# .

    Good one John!
  • LMAO
  • i just fell off my chair
  • Brilliant!
  • Congratulations!

    Just wanted to let you know that AN UNOFFICIAL COAST GUARD BLOG has signed an agreement in principle for Unofficial Networks to purchase our little site for $1.2 million. We'd have held out for more, but one of our contributors was recently canned for his blogging activities.

    You can see the full details here.
  • Can't believe I fell for that. I'm turning my computer off for the day lest someone else take advantage of my trusting nature.
  • Wait, gCaptain and unofficial networks are alredy the same company so whats the logistics of selling to yourself?
  • Capt932,

    While your assumption is technically correct this post was the tactical implementation of our international strategy which recognizes the need for global diversification and brand awareness.

    The technical logistics are a closely guarded secret but the short answer is; we shall be leveraging our vast supply of high interest debt with the ultimate goal of increasing internal inefficiencies. The mechanics of the deal include an equity swap, asset-backed securities, non-convertible indentures and all other means offered prior to the commoditization of the maritime blogosphere and resultant diminishing worth of our core asset.
  • Thanks everyone for an enjoyable April Fools! I'm honored and humbled by the 20+ people who emailed me with congratulations, in doing so you joined us in thinking this dream is possible.

    -John
