Two whole hours of Deadliest Catch! I was afraid that the blessing of the fleet and memorial to Captain Phil were going to take a lot of this episode, but no, they got right into fishing. Also they kept the Bon Jovi "I'm a Cowboy" (I don't know what the real name of the song is) which I really love but the trailer for this season had a bit of a dirge for Captain Phil. So far so good.

Here's what you missed. Jake Harris passed his pee test. Cornelia Marie successfully out to sea with Captain Derek after Jake goes AWOL for a few hours. Weather sucks. Edgar is back on Northwestern. Jake went to school for captain's license. Hasn't gotten it yet. Kodiak not back. Seabrooke is new boat . Two years ago, a deckhand got caught in the line and was sucked into the Bering Sea. There is a 42 year-old greenhorn. Seabrooke captain is very safety conscious. If you happen to be working on a crab boat, keep both feet on the deck when you toss those lines that connect to the pots over. Here's the video about the Seabrooke. I can't figure out how to "embed" though, so you'll have to go to the link. Weather sucks. Ramblin' Rose another new boat.  Very rusty. Very young skipper. Looks wild. Combined aged of crew less than other skippers. He likes that. 30 year-old deckhand Kato as uncoordinated as I am. I only have bruises (and an occasional something else), but he's had a broken ankle, punctured lung and fell overboard. I think there's a video of the RR on the same site. Captain fires deckhand after galley mess and beer debacle. Weather sucks. Northwestern deckhand bites herring head off for luck. Captain Phil's ashes in crab pot. Broken neck on container ship. Rescue copter heroics ensue. Tangled hoist. Pot under rudder. Oh, and did I say the weather sucks? Seabrooke captain (Junior, I think, who is young) is a rock star. Hillstrands are not. Neither is Captain Keith or anyone else for that matter. No Crab Quotes from what I can tell. I skip through the ads. Anyhow, I hate those fucking things. My question: how deep is a fathom? They fish 55 fathoms deep.

Don't call me after 9 p.m. on Tuesdays. Vicious boars are taking over our country. You can see the boar hunters on Tuesdays at 10. Enough said.
