The Commodore has left the building

[zeppomarks]

Before he whisked off to Vancouver however a few more precious gems fell from his lips.

"Those people were pretty nice considering they were Christian and all"


This was uttered to the people at the train depot museum, whom he had just met 15 minutes prior,
Commodore: “Let me see if I can buy you folks a railroad car to go on those empty tracks over there."
Person running the museum: "uh well, that would be very generous of you."
Commodore: "You would let me come and sit in it... right?"


Pronounced very loudly at a 4 star restaurant,
"This place is MUCH better than Taco Bell!"


Spoken to a French Waiter, "Can you bring my daughter here a Beefeater gin martini straight up with a lemon twist? We need to keep her on her toes. Also bring us some Molluscan Gastropoda and two spoons!"


Yelled into the phone, "What they don't understand is that I am a man with needs!"


"Your friends seemed relatively intelligent, but I am really amazed by their children."
me: "How so?"
"They owned such well mannered infants, there was no snot-nosed screaming and wailing like the horrid little street urchins that most children are..."


I don’t want to be called a diabetic, I prefer ‘Sugar Cripple.’


"You know the second I kissed her hand I could tell she used to be a man"

I am equally amazed by our friends' children.

Although the man with needs part is what made me laugh and laugh.

How old is the Commodore? 'Cause he sounds like my grandfather, but my grandfather is 95. My grandfather is also An Awesome Man.

What a righteous dude.
What's he doing in Vancouver? Seems a strange place for a Commodore(with the exception of the Commodore night club)

I needed that bit of humor and weirdness today.
Thank you.

I'm calling my dad a Sugar Cripple from now on.

Beautiful.

I love The Commodore. I'd like to have a book full of his quotes.

I am totally behind the new term for diabetes. Whenever someone hears that I'm diabetic they become awful intrusive and at times inappropriate. "Sugar Cripple" will allow me to fly under the radar, as most of my shipmates don't have the capacity for sarcasm.

A St. Lawrence Salute to the Commodore!

Damn straight!

I could hear his needs in Brooklyn!

I've been meaning to say this for a while yet:
You come from magical stock.

God love that man. He's like a Mark Twain, Confucius and Rodney Dangerfield Smoothie.

I didn't think the train car comment could be topped, but then I got the taco bell line.

Priceless.

Thanks for sharing.

He's a veritable fountain of witicism.
