Metaphor

SW WIND 10 TO 15 KT. WIND WAVES 2 FT. W SWELL 10 FT AT 11 SECONDS.

I watched Big Wednesday the other day...
For the first time in many, many years...
There was a frame where Gerry is headed out...
And a guy with an eye patch is hanging...
Obvious reference to O'Neill of course...
But still nothing I ever noticed before...

For me, she represents work, toil and labor...
Because they are getting in the way of surf...
Or maybe she is wind, storm and rain...
Because they are getting in the way of surf...
Or maybe she is the internet, cams & reports...
Because they are getting in the way of surf...
Or maybe she is giant surf, alcohol and gas prices...
Because they are getting in the way of surf...
Or maybe she is just a cartoon.
