PS:

JohnH,
When Kevin made up his story, I think he wanted to say he owned a Ducati.
My guess is Kevin drove his Moto Guzzi 'Desmo' around the U of Penn
campus.



Well, he wanted to say he owned 'something'. Maybe he keeps his Guzzi
"Desmo" on
a lobsta boat somewhere.

I wonder why the NG's most prolific liberal posters feel they need to boost
their egos in rec.boats? What happened that they are not satisfied by their
real life?

Tell me does this remind you of anyone:

Narcissistic
Personality Disorder. The symptoms of NPD is: A pervasive pattern of
grandiosity (in fantasy or behavior), need for admiration, and lack of
empathy, beginning by early adulthood and present in a variety of contexts,

achievements and talents, expects to be recognized as superior without
commensurate achievements)
(2) is preoccupied with fantasies of unlimited success, power, brilliance,
beauty, or ideal love

(3) believes that he or she is "special" and unique and can only be
understood by, or should associate with, other special or high-status people
