Troop Float Update

Filed under: Floating — Float Master @ 10:43 am

As you all should know the Troop Float is Sat. the 20th at 1:00PM! (NOT 2:00 Patrick). Everyone bring $10.00 extra for the shirts, we have both guys and girls shirts now so when I say everyone that means you. For flotillians bringing guests make sure they are on time and have money for tubes and shirts. Remember all proceeds go to our adopted platoon in Iraq.

I will need models for both the guys and girls shirts for the web site so if you are good looking enough please get there a little early so we can use you, and no there will be no pay, just know you are doing something good for the community.

Please email me if you have any questions.

Peace Out
Your Float Master.

Shell Casteel

Filed under: Floater Profiles — Float Master @ 3:42 pm

The first thing you need to know about Michele is she grew up in a big family, a family with a mother who is German and a father who is Italian. When they weren’t trying to invade the surrounding towns they were running the “family business” if ya know wadda mean. Michele is the youngest of the Sacco “crew” and by the time she came around the family resources were a little scarce, hell they couldn’t even afford to put another L in her name.

By the time Michele was marrying age, her dad had moved up pretty far in the Cosa Nostra and they needed some political backing so they sold her to our state representative and she gave her to her son who we affectionately call the Giant.

If you don’t recognize Michele it is because she is an Empty Beer Can now, but in her prime she was the inventer of jell-o shots on the river. She spends her time now avoiding C.P.S. because she lets her son sleep on his stomach.

Here is one of the newsclippings from the paper on Rick’s record breaking lifts. Make sure you slap him on the back and tell him what a panty waisted Nancy-Boy he is for banging the bar on 570 lb’s. Then tell him you can’t be friends with anyone who doesn’t lift over 600 lb’s.

Good Job Rick. This is the kind of thing that will get your ranking moved up Mr. Honor Guard.

River Rat Platoon Float August 20th

Filed under: Floating — Float Master @ 11:25 am

Thanks to Kelly’s hard work the New Braunfels Flotilla has adopted a Platoon in Iraq. They have been nicknamed the River Rats by us and the next float on August 20th will be in their honor. Kelly is our contact to them and we will be collecting some of the items listed below or you can donate some money. The following is the information Kelly was sent:

The 1st Platoon of Cavalry Troops will be deployed to Iraq until approximately Mar ‘06; there are 18 members in this platoon
The unit runs, in addition to it’s regular missions, a Quick Reaction Force for the camp where they rotate the Scout Platoons every week, they are cut off from most morale initiatives during these periods making entertainment scarce to maintain their readiness. They are trying to improve their Building’s morale items as far as sporting equip., TV and Movie viewing, and games. Here is a list of items that have been requested specifically, but would appreciate any of the following items:

Entertainment: DVD Players and DVD’s(Action, Horror, Comedy), TV’s, Small Stereos(CD’s/Rock, Classic Rock, Rap, Country), Computers of any type, Handheld games, Cameras of any type, PS2’s and X-Boxes(Games, Action, Racing), Tactical/Utility Knives are High in Demand!(CRKT, SOG, Cold Steel, Spyderco, Swiss Army, etc).

Sporting Equip.: Boxing Gloves w/Mouth Guards(Stress Relief), Softball equip., Horseshoe Sets, Miniature Golf type sets(Putter/Retriever), GNC Products(Diet, Workout Supplements), Push-Up Bars

Magazines/Books: Hunting, Guns, Knives, Sports, Sci-Fi, Fantasy, Horror

Assorted Candy and writing materials, gel pens, etc.

Don’t forget our very owne Capt. James E. is in Afghanistan and he is our adopt our soldier over there. We also may have ship-outs of Capt. Dan and Maj. Karin so be ready to float for them too. Remember the best thing we can do for our Troops overseas is to party for them and entertain their women (or men if you are of the other gender).

For those of you with lets say less than stellar rankings you can do a lot if you bring one or more of these items to the float. Think of it as extra credit.

See you there,
Your Infamous Float Master.

Phear us.
