A bit of drifting from the 2005 movie:

Drift!.................( I'm as pure as the driven snow! But you done drifted! ....Boss and Rosco, in " Boss Behind Bars")

(Continued after Rosco drives off) Luke:"Bo. We must live right or somethin'." Bo:"It's a charmed life, I'm tellin' ya." Luke:"You got it! Hey here comes Cooter! Think we can wrangle a ride home?" Bo:"Only if we feed him. What do you wanna bet?" Luke:"Winner does the dishes!" Bo:"You're on!" Luke:"Ok!" Both boys:(flagging him down in the tow truck)"Cooter!" Cooter:"Don't y'all know it ain't safe to be a pedestrian in this town!?" Luke:"Hey, can we wrangle a ride home?" Cooter:"Who's cookin' supper?" Bo:"I told you. Only if we get to feed him." Luke:"Alright. You do the dishes. Get in here, come on!" Bo:"What do you mean I do the dishes! Like I said!"

(More Season 4 Pin the Tail on the Dukes) Waylon Jennings:"The next morning, the boys were on their way to town to pick up some barb wire. At the same time, Rosco was waitin' to break in his new radar gun. A hair dryer, on his first unsuspecting motorist. Y'all wanna take bets on who that'll be?"

Ha ha..nope to both.
Let's see if a description would help:  He's 6'1" with dark hair and the deepest blue eyes.  He has very large shoulders and hands.  He's extremely articulate and intelligent.  I have to add witty with a biting sarcasm.  He also has a smile that could make Broadway's lights dim.

I love that line "the ship already abandoned us!"  that is a funny line and scene.

(Season 1 Two on a Raft)
Gilligan:"Skipper!. Do you think we should abandon ship!?" Skipper:(pointing to sinking raft)"It's too late! It's already abandoned us!"

(Season 3 The Producer)
Based on another post today - here is “Hamlet: The Musical” by the Castaways of Gilligan’s Island     
     
Act I     
[The curtain rises. Hamlet stands stage center.]     
HAMLET: (Sings)     
I ask to be or not to be, A rogue or peasant slave is what you see; A boy who loved his mother’s knee, And so I ask to be or not to be. So here’s my plea, I beg of you, And say you see a little hope for me. To fight or flee, to fight or flee, I ask myself to be or not to be.     
     
[Enter King Claudius and Queen Certrude]     
CLAUDIUS AND GERTRUDE:     
(Sing) He asks to be or not to be, A rogue or      
peasant slave is what you see;     
     
GERTRUDE: (Sings) My son who loved his mother’s knee,     
     
CLAUDIUS AND GERTRUDE: (Sing) And so he asks to be or not to be. So here’s his plea, we beg of thee, And say we see a little hope for he.     
     
HAMLET: (Sings) To fight or flee, to fight or flee, I ask myself to be or not to be.     
     
Exit Claudius and Certrude.
     
HAMLET: Hark! I do believe I hear the fair Ophelia.     
     
Enter Ophelia     
     
OPHELIA: My Lord Hamlet is troubled.     
     
HAMLET: Yea, verily, my heart is heavy. I cannot marry thee, Ophelia. There is nothing left for you, but to get thee to a notary.     
     
OPHELIA: Ah, my poor Hamlet. Ah, my poor Hamlet. (Sings) Hamlet, dear, your problem is clear, Avenging thy father’s death; You seek to harm your uncle and mom, But you’re scaring me to death. While I die and sigh and cry,      
That love is everything; You’re content to try to touch, The conscience of a king. Since the day when your dad met his fate, You just brood and you don’t touch your food; You      
hate your ma, mad at my pa, You’ll kill the king or some  silly thing. So Hamlet. Hamlet, do be a man, let Rotten enough alone. From Ophelia no one can steal yea You’ll  always be my own, Leave the gravedigger’s scene, If you      
know what I mean. Danish pastry for two, For me, for you.     
     
HAMLET: In truth Ophelia, you have said a mouthful.     
     
OPHELIA: Hamlet, I have so much more to offer. But hark! Me thinks me hear the heavy footsteps of my father, Polonius.     
     
HAMLET: And the laughter of your brother and my friend, Laertes.     
     
OPHELIA: Oh, they must not find us here. But where to hide?     
     
HAMLET: Hide anyplace. But don’t go near the water.     
[Exit Hamlet and Ophelia]     
     
LAERTES: Father, my ship sails at the tide.     
     
POLONIUS: A mornent, my son, for I have something to tell you.     
     
LAERTES: But I ask only for my allowance.     
     
POLONIUS: Ah, but I shall give you something far more available: advice.     
     
LAERTES:     
Do you know how much wine you can buy in Paris with advice?     
     
POLONIUS: Paris is a wild and wicked town. And you are but a young and innocent boy.     
     
LAERTES: (To audience) Oh, could I tell him a few stories.     
     
POLONIUS: Heed my words, Laertes, and you’ll be safe.     
     
LAERTES: (To audience) Unless I listen, I won’t get my spending money. So I’ll listen, I’ll listen.     
     
POLONIUS: (Sings) Neither a borrower nor a lender be, Do not forget: Stay out of debt; Think twice, and take this good advice from me, Guard that old solvency. There’s just one other thing you ought to do. To thine own self be true.     
     
[Enter entire cast]     
ALL: (Sing)     
Neither a borrower nor a lender be, Do not forget: Stay out of debt; Think twice, and take this good advice from me, Guard that old solvency. There’s just one other thing you ought to do, To thine own self be true.

This set of tributes comes from Season 3 The Kidnapper.
 

To bad I am out of free uploads on my Flickr account. Because I have done some Skipper video tribute scenes from the series. I would love to have put on here for y'all.

Cousin Spike... The Madded that the video games are made about?

Yep, both times positive for Covid. 
Booster shot packed same punch the regular shots did. Wife of course had the brunt of side effects again, aches and pain and headache. I had more aches this time than with the other shots.
Still haven't heard anything about the neighbor, we hope she's getting better. 
Finally getting snow here too, unfortunately a few days late but I'm still in the Christmas mood so why not.

Did she get tested both times?  A friend of mine just said that his 30 year old son just got it for the second time. We're getting quite a bit of snow now. Why couldn't we have had that for Christmas?

Those are funny quotes from the show.

That will be great when you get that hat.  Hopefully, you will receive it soon.

I'm still at one and only crush.  There is no number two crush for me.  LOL.

New crush added to the list.

Coming soon to my Gilligan's Island/Skipper's hat collection! The wait is killer murderous torture lol.
 

Although Surviving Gilligan's Island did not show us Russell's, Tina's, Jim's or Natalie's reactions to the series cancellation, it did show us Bob's, Dawn's and Alan's which the 3 seemed to be most upset.
