[QUOTE=tremorviolet] 'Course, it would help if I actually linked to pics. (damn you, trigger happy enter button) [Me at Masters Nationals](http://www.sport-graphics.com/view_user_photo.asp?PID=&EVENTID=8191&PWD=&ID=13353534&FROM=browser&START=1&SHOW=36&CAT=41045&SUB=0) in Oakridge, TN in 2004. I’m in the bow (behind the girl in front).

Once again I’m in the bow (and also looking out (bad rowing technique) at a boat that’s about to crash right into us).

[QUOTE=Tuckerfan] For some reason in looking at your pics I keep hearing the Billy Squire song _The Stroke_. [/QUOTE] You have no idea. There are sooooo many horribly suggestive rowing phrases out there, it’s not even fun anymore. And this gave me an idea for a thread I just started “what are the suggestive phrases in your sport/hobby/profession?”. IT’s over in IMHO. ---

[/QUOTE] You’re a doll, but I’ll admit to being disappointed that you don’t look more like Katharine Hepburn on a throne on a barge.
