Trust me they are hearing it enough!<br /><br />When I have met John he seemed like a good guy, and I know he has had a Girlfried in Dutch that is just drop dead beautiful. Personaly I found what he said distasteful, but you should hear some of the things I say when toasted!<br /><br />A real apology would be better from him though. Have you learned NOTHING from the Slapdown of David Letterman by Our Fabulous Governor?<br />Just apologize, and move on.<br />Alaskans are a forgiving people John, Just remember you are going to have to by a LOT of rounds though....Carlisleboyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10946443702898587022noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5916312695197349293.post-16449847542018219602009-06-18T07:05:11.475-08:002009-06-18T07:05:11.475-08:00Thanks CB for providing the venue with which to ve...Thanks CB for providing the venue with which to vent. Next time, filet mignon and wine as well PLEASE... lol<br /><br />My thought is that beauty is in the eye of the beholder. There is inner beauty, outer beauty, and limitless combinations of both in between. It could be debated for centuries.<br /><br />I kind of chuckled after hearing John's statement but didn't personalize it as a slur against women from anywhere. I believe I understand the intent of the quip. It just didn't work out. We have all done that. "Open mouth, insert foot..." Anyone ever done that before? Probably more times than we'd all like to remember. How many times have we all thought, "Mannnnnn, that came out all wrong, it's not what I was trying to say!"<br /><br />I lived in Alaska for about five years but not nearly as far north. Alaska IS a totally different environment, almost like a little country all to itsself. In many ways they have their own rules and ways of doing things.<br /><br />I remember a t-shirt I used to wear. It is probably still for sale there even now. It said, "Alaska Men - the odds are good but the goods are odd!" It meant the ratio of men to women in Alaska is high. The men, however, are known in general for being a bit odd. Many work in lumber or fishing and are gone for long periods of time. When they return they have a lot of money and just want to party. A good deal are not relationship material for that reason and they choose to stay single.<br /><br />I'm just putting it out there that nobody is perfect. Shit happens and this too shall pass. <br /><br />As I read through the blog people start slinging derogatory remarks back. We are allowed to voice our thoughts. It is one of the great things about living in this country. I consider that for all the women who don't like John's cowboy boots, little "heheheheheh" laugh, style of doin' the crab jig" or the amount of alcohol he consumes, there are quite possibly the same amount or more who do.<br /><br />Whether Alaskan women, or women from anywhere else are beautiful or ugly is up for debate on numerous levels (I feel the same goes for the men). Beauty is, after all, "In the eye of the beholder".Helenhttp://www.myspace.com/heleninesattlenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5916312695197349293.post-44905386729070930042009-06-18T06:52:54.035-08:002009-06-18T06:52:54.035-08:00Lets give Captain John some leeway here after all ...Lets give Captain John some leeway here after all he may think Jennifer Anniston is ugly too.

All I think his comment did was make him look like a desperate old guy who can't get "attractive" women.<br /><br />Surely no one is basing their self esteem on what he is saying!! I'm sure Unalaska is like everywhere else on earth... everyone looks different and who is considered "attractive" is a matter of inner beauty and personal taste (and John doesn't seem to have a lot of either.)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5916312695197349293.post-70942451373596983492009-06-18T04:40:56.867-08:002009-06-18T04:40:56.867-08:00Wow, looks like I'm in the minority here.

Don't think it's worth all the venom that has been posted.<br /><br />What's interesting is, people are offended by Capt Jon's comment/joke because it insults a woman's physical appearance, yet the FIRST thing that's thrown back his way are insults to his physical appearance.<br /><br />Looks like folks here have something in common with Capt Jon.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5916312695197349293.post-26243472783436720602009-06-18T03:32:39.457-08:002009-06-18T03:32:39.457-08:00Cheers to CD and Kim!

Who cares what he said? Do you think he's the first to make a remark like that? Do you think the guys on the other boats haven't said similar things? I have PERSONALLY heard NW and CM crew members make similar remarks, they just were'nt dumb enough to say it on camera. I think many of you are being too sensitive about the issue. Get over yourselves, Johnathan is what he is and like it or not he's still very popular. And for the record, no he's not my favorite or my second or my third but I don't get my panties in a bunch every time someone says something disrespectful. <br /><br />As for blowing up the PR guys email at Disco, it has the potential for back firing so I would be careful.

He is no longer in my top 5 or even top 10 favorites. His boat has also dropped down to next to my least favorite boat. I think he plays to much to the camera and speaks before his brain even sparks to think. God gave men two heads and one brain...he uses the smaller head. I guess its got some beer goggles. I do not think John is gonna be getting a whole lot of action up in DH or Akutan any time soon.
