It’s the third week of the Whiskey Wednesday Contest. I have to say, you’ve been quick on the draw. It’s 3am my time. Do you know where your coffee is? LOL.
I’m hoping that New Zealand and Australia have gotten to see the crew of The Time Bandit . These guys have been the dark horse favorite of the show, letting the Northwestern take all the limelight, but stealing the show in the end.
See what I mean?
I love Sig and Edgar, but let’s face it. Jonathan was the captain with the VERY exciting rescue in season three. And Andy and his cowboy hat give the show that special “Yum” touch.
But the crew of The Time Bandit has THREE brothers Hillstrand. If you cruised by yesterday, I left a link up for the crew bio that will give you his name.
Here’s the question folks. Jonathan and Andy Hillstrand share Captain’s duties on The Time Bandit, but they rely on their brother to help out too. Who is their brother?

Good Morning Jen!!
How can we forget Neil? My bio info says that he cooks, cleans and operates the boat at night while the crew sleeps. Wow, they actually find time to sleep!
Now, for my coffee.

Oh, by the way, I don’t mean to hog the site, I just love to enter contests. It is time to let someone else win, okay?
Thanks again!

Aw man!!! For once I was awake and ready to answer and Liz beat me to it. Darn you morning people!
I think Neil also runs the boat for other fisheries and keeps it in tip top shape during the off season since he lives full time in Homer, AK.

Well, well, well! You guys are quick!!! Hey, Liz! Where’s that coffee?
No worries Lothian. I’ll enter Liz in twice and throw your name in the hat too. (Since she was a winner from last week).
You guys have been great. Make sure you email me for the pdf version of any of my backlist ebooks. Liz, I’ve got your email address, but Lothian, I don’t have yours yet.

Hi Jen!
Coffee is ready, in fact, I’m on my second cup but for you and Lothian, I will put on a fresh pot. This one is over an hour old.
Congrats, Lothian. It’s so neat to read other comments.
Does anybody know when the new Deadliest Catch season begins again? I am really hooked (pardon the pun at this hour) on the show!

Liz, no idea when the official date of the new TV season.
I do know that they’ve been playing Season 3 at 10am. Not that I’ve been watching it every day or anything. LOL.
Deadliest Reports usually has the official info sooner than anyone.
And of course, I’ll be keeping up with it here. Not that I’m impatient. No, really.

Shucks! Too late again…How about a little extra Timebandit info instead???? John, Andy and Neal H., along with their not so quiet deckhand Russell will be joined this coming season with another new deckhand from Hawaii…how does that sound?
I’ll get up in the middle of the night next week and be here earlier, lol…

LOL Opilia! Mmmm I’ll have to think of something REALLY tough for you. You’re too up on ALL that is Deadliest Catch.

Wow, this party-hardy crowd is rocking and rolling in the wee hours of the morning ! Good for you !! Neil is also the most quiet Hillstrand I’ve seen so far. He’s the ” silent-but strong ” type. What can I say ? I’m a Time Bandit girl, I love them all ! Jen, I just love this contest, it helps a lot while of the off-season creeps by!

Thanks Cris. Maybe I’ll make it a yearly thing so that those of us with the Between Season Blues can survive.
I love Neil, but Andy is my favorite. *Sigh* I think it’s the beat up cowboy hat.

By the way, Liz, I thought I’d let you know that the show will air again next April. *Groan* I know. It’s a long time to wait.
They’re filming now (Oct.) and then in Jan. 08 for Opilio season. I got the information off of the Deadliest Catch forums. It’s part of the Discovery Channel’s fan page. Click on “The Deadliest Catch” link on my sidebar.

Well now – if we’re talking FAVORITES – I have to say unequivocally, without a shadow of a doubt – it HAS to be Johnathan !!! He’s just so sexy, he takes my breath away ! * sigh * ( hehe )

It’s Neil. I read the bio but don’t watch the show.
Crazy stuff happens on those boats. We, my dh & I, used to work in the seafood business. We didn’t go out on boats but worked on the selling end.

I don’t watch the show – but you are making me rethink my tv habits, cause it looks like I might be missing something great!

Hi Jen!!
What have you done to me???!!! I just got home late after playing Bolivia (a form of canasta) with my group. It was after midnight. The garbage had to go to the road for collection tomorrow. I know that means TUESDAY. Well, I no sooner took the garbage to the road and logged on to see you hint for Wednesday’s contest!! Well I’ve been looking and looking and it finally hit me…this is Tuesday morning and very early Tuesday…duh.
It’s allll your fault
okay, I’ll take part of the blame because as I’ve said before, I LOVE contests. Well, off to bed for me so that I can function tomorrow.
I’ll check back and see what challenge you have set up for us.
Good night/morning!
Liz
