Pomorac iz Snova

U subotu bio je rođendan našem dragom Kapu. Ala, rođendan se dogodio na kopnu, što nije često slučaj, I mornar koji će biti sretno zaglavljen na suhom još neko vrijeme (zbog čega manje pišem) Kapo I.T, iskoristio je situaciju, I bacio nekoliko dana dugu feštu.

Sudjelovala sam u uživanju jedne fete te fešte, na koju je pozvao cijeli restoran prijatelja, I natjecateljsko nastrojenih cura, koje su se trudile ostaviti dojam, natjecati, te izbaciti druge cure iz lova - za zarobiti i oženiti našeg fantastičnog Gospodina I.T.

Naravno, Kapo je zasluženo uživao!  Skroz je zaboravio na dane kada je bio zaglavljen na sidru pred Akatraz zatvorom..

Postoji dobra strana života pomorca, u Hrvatskoj. Pomorci su popularni među ženama. Oni su Hrvatska alternativa investicijskom bankaru u Londonu, i mnoge cure u dobi za udaju- upravo traže pomorce.
Pomorci u usporedbi sa "Kopnenima" imaju jaku kupovnu moć, I vlastite nekretnine u državi gdje svi ostali čekaju da naslijede kuće od roditelja, ili provedu cijeli životni vijek živeći sa starcima. Pomorac kao vrsta čovjeka, neudanim curama, poprimio je značenje koje je još prije nekoliko godina imao pojam " Američki san" - ( vlastitim naporima ostvareno veliko postignuće.) Da ,danas u Hrvatskoj, dečko pomorac koji je vrijedno radio na svom brodu godinama, ima sve što treba da bi kvalificirao za " Pomorac iz snova". Kao što se cijelo krdo košuta okupi uokolo jelena alfa mužjaka , u slučaju pomorca, krdo žena se prirodno oformi uokolo mornara neženje, te on može birati ženu koju hoće.


Ti današnji mornari su sasvim svjesni svojih čari. Oni uživaju u moći privlačnosti koji posjeduju, ali su istodobno postali i cinični naspram žena- u strahu da su samo zainteresirane za njihov novac.


Ali kao što vidite, postoje i privlačni elementi u karijeri mornara. ! Koga će naš I.T. oženiti iz grupe djevojaka koje su ga lovile na rođendan? Dali će ih pak  sve zamjeniti sa novim lovačicama sljedeće godine? Hoće li se uopće ženiti? Koga briga! Mi ćemo nastaviti pratiti Kapa I.T. za par mjeseci kada se iznova ukrca na brod.

Za sada želim mu sretan rođendan i punu godinu svega dobroga!

The Tanabe bully squashing smallers ships in his way..

It looks like we are about to smash the smaller ship, right?
.. So it seems to  me, .. And was it piloted by Chief MK who was paying too much attention to photography and did not forsee the disaster...
Or did they by pass one another without a scratch to their steel hides?



Machine & romance

And here is a complicated little bugger.. The ship Jupiter- enjoying the sun set..

As expirenced by Chief MK, in some snowy place, (Russia maybe) It looks to me like chief was looking from the bridge over his ship.

Mmm a futuristic romance - combination of machine and dreamy landscape..

A little light ironing, mali đir na pegli..

This is how I prepare the tiny paintings for presentation - can't have them crumpled .. Ships and crew are ruled in order and tidyness!

Priprema radova za pokazivanje..

Capo I.T Being The sailor Dream



On Saturday it was our Capo's birthday. Wow, a birthday of his happened on land, which is not often the case- and the Sailor who will be happily stranded so for a while, (which is the reason I am writing less).Capo I. T. took advantage of the occasion- and  threw a several - days-long  birthday party.
I too participated during one slice of the birthday party to which he invited a whole resturant full of friends, and competing girls who where doing their best to impress, compete, and trip up other girls, in order to hunt down marry our fantastic Mr I.T.


Of course the Capo  was loving it! Entirely forgot about the days of being stranded on anchor in front of the Alcatraz prison. ..




There is a bonus side to being sailor in Croatia.. Sailors are popular among women. They are the Croatian alternative- to an investment Banker in London, and many girls of a marriageable age- seek sailors. Sailors in comparison to the "Land men" have strong buying power , own their own properties in a country where everyone else is waiting lifetimes to inherit houses from parents- and are living together with family often for an entire life time.
A sailor to a girl may seem what a few decades ago was " The American dream"... Yes today ,in Croatia, a sailor boy, who has worked diligently for years on his ship, has all the assets to be perceived as " The Sailor dream". As all the deer females of the herd gather around the alpha male Stag, in the case of the sailor, a heard of women  naturally forms around a bachelor sailor in the same way- and he can choose which he likes.

Let's just say that the mariners are aware of their charms. They like the attraction power which they carry, and at the same time become cynical towards women, - in case they are just out for their money..
There is a cliche syndrome in Dalmatia of the  "Sailor's wife".. The wives who are pampered and wear for a walk in town all the most expensive things that can be bought or found , dragging aobut a tiny dogs in tiny expensive queer outfit..



But as you see there are peaks to the mariners career!
Who will our I.T marry out of dozens of the girls hunting him down at his birthday party?- Or will he replace them all for a new set next of huntresses next year? Will he marry at all? Who cares. We shall continue to follow Capo I. T, when he embarks his ship again in a couple of months..

For now I wish him a happy birthday and a year full of good things to come. !
