Dear Bill & Jules,
I am writing you in response to the unfortunate accident that took place on a recent tuna charter. I am not overly supersticious, however some things are just plain signs from the heavens. The loss of "Jules Pee Bucket" is an obvious indication that the "Alternative" is now cursed. At this time, I regret to inform you that I will no longer be able to work as second Captain for the charter boat Alternative. As you know, safety is a big concern for me and I just do not feel that a brand spanking new beautiful top quality vessel such as yours can be considered safe without the infamous bucket.
The only way that I would change my decision would be a committment to take one of two drastic measures required to "reverse the curse".
The forst and easiest way to "reversethe curse" would be to kill Notaro, but that is just not feasable. The second way would be to take that sweet ride to a very special island with lots of indian mojo and run it round and round that island for at least 21 days. I beleive that this might just wash the curse of Notaro right off the boat and save your investment and adress my concerns.

sincerely,
Captain Basic

I wish you would have landed that fish Zac, would have been awesome, but don't lose sleep over it as tuna will do that to you. You didn't do any thing wrong, when that fish jumped he just threw the plug, same thing happens with bass sometimes and you hooked into a tuna!!!! Thats like hooking a bass on Steroids.

Christian, I gotta say that scream you left out made me think someone fell outa the boat!!! LMAO

RIJimmy was a pleasure meeting you, You were awesome and fun to be around!!!And no you can't have our boat. But when are you gonna get one

Notaro, All I can say is I should Have drowned your A$$ for losing the sacred PEE BUCKET off my boat!!!! That was a mortal sin, I have had that lucky bucket since we owned the old boat and was the only thing we brought on board the new boat. IT WAS MY LUCKY BUCKET. If you weren't sleeping and out of it most of the day I probably would have thrown you OVERBOARD!!!!!! YOU OWE ME BIGTIME BUDDY, all I can say is that after the bucket went overboard we never saw another tuna, It was like a light swicth went off. I definatley think it was because of my lucky bucket. LMAO

All kidding aside, we had a great time yesterday and you guys were awesome to have on board, glad you made it all home safely after that bumpy ride in and out. I am glad you all enjoyed your 1st tuna trip and learned something to boot when you were on board the Alternative.

Thanks Again,
Jules & Bill
