We had some storms here this winter.
Here is a helicopter footage of the western landhead of France in last 
december.

This is the kind of weather the "Abeille" series coastguards tugs are 
designed for (because it is a heavy ship trafic zone and disabled ships 
happen mostly by storm)

I liked how the two sailors on the bow held each other like Leo and Kate in 
Titanic. That was cute.

  Someone could probably write some emotional and ennobling essay about
the majestic life-saving lighthouse standing against winds and waves.

I'll say it first. Virginia Woolf :)

I thought that lighthouse essays were about loneliness and madness.

  "Who's Afraid of..."(?) I've heard of it many times but I'm not sure if 
I've seen it. If I did, it was when I was young.

Yes the same one, she wrote "To the Lighthouse"

Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf? Written by Edward Albee is quite
famous if you like Tennessee Williams and the like :)

Did I for get fog? 
Probably deliberately after working offshore. The sound of that
foghorn on the morning you were supposed to be going home was not a
pretty sound :(

Or maybe Coleridge...

Oh ! dream of joy ! is this indeed
The light-house top I see ?
Is this the hill ? is this the kirk ?
Is this mine own countree ?
We drifted o'er the harbour-bar,
And I with sobs did pray--
O let me be awake, my God !
Or let me sleep alway.

The harbour-bay was clear as glass,
So smoothly it was strewn !
And on the bay the moonlight lay,
And the shadow of the Moon.

It is an ancient scottish man
And he borrows a pack of three
By thy long beard and zipped up purse
I hope ye've had yer tea

I will be brief but not nearly so brief as Salvador Dali, who gave the
world's shortest speech. He said, "I will be so brief I am already
finished," then he sat down.
