Dave Floyd @iwasdabosn.bsky.social · 12/10/2026Knives were so ubiquitous on ships that I had a drawer full of lost & found knives. If I caught one of my guys asking to use mine, I'd just give them one. Knife, side cutter or multi-tool, marlinespike: basic Bos'n Mate kit 010
Dave Floyd @iwasdabosn.bsky.social · 12/10/2026Lost mine due to my own fumble. I was probably 2' from the deck edge and it just went flying out of my hand in slow motion. Seared into my brain. I can still see it now 110
Dave Floyd @iwasdabosn.bsky.social · 12/10/2026I had two VG-10 Seki City. The other one was the all stainless police model. Lost it over the side at Kilo Wharf, Guam. Water was so clear I could see it go all the way down. 😯😕😭 110

Dave Floyd @iwasdabosn.bsky.social · 12/10/2026Thought I'd lost my Spyderco that has been around the world with me since 2003. My primary working knife. If it's not clipped to my pocket, I feel naked. Lately the clip has bent open & have had a couple close calls. Mrs reminded me I drove her car today and there it was! Tomorrow's priority job. 170
Dave Floyd @iwasdabosn.bsky.social · 11/10/2026Republicans, my advice to them is if you start calling your political opponents Communists, maybe it's time to shut up. David Brooks, it's long past time for you to shut up 020

Dave Floyd @iwasdabosn.bsky.social · 10/10/2026Miller and Katie are partying like it's 1994 at Fort Myer. The Rubio's, Burgrums, and Hegseths are too. Melania is somewhere. But while we are sleeping, he is up with Natalie airing grievances on social media. With the means to end all life on this planet at his fingertips. 030

Dave Floyd @iwasdabosn.bsky.social · 10/10/2026Nope. He's someone sleeping on a lawn, probably passed out. Doesn't matter what his day job is. 000

Dave Floyd @iwasdabosn.bsky.social · 10/10/2026Thanks for the memory. When our son completed the parallel parking on a hill with my standard shift Pathfinder and then insisted on doing it again, it was a proud moment for both of us. 020
