Skip, your writing reminds me more and more of Cicero:
Your epic voyage in boat buying, and now the spamming
Praeteritio.

Having gotten the other off my chest, I'm not sure whether to be flattered
or insulted :{))

Cicero isn't a bad guy to be remembered by, IMHO.

In any event, I'm looking forward to returning to the boat in a couple of
days and wrapping it up. Most likely, if there's no takers, as heavy as it
is, even though it's on a pallet (and thus reasonably shippable), I'll
prolly take it to Don's Salvage on consignment, and, eventually, it will all
sell.

So far as I can tell, there won't be anything else to sell from the boat,
and not much more for me to buy, for that matter, either, so this will be
just a prelude to the wrapping-up stories I hope to have the time to tell,
and the patience to deal with googlegroups (vs the threaded newsclient I use
at home, on my own system vs the wifi account someone is kindly hosting me
on) in order to post.

"Believe me, my young friend, there is *nothing*-absolutely nothing-half so
much worth doing as simply messing, messing-about-in-boats; messing about in
boats-or *with* boats.
In or out of 'em, it doesn't matter. Nothing seems really to matter, that's
the charm of it.
Whether you get away, or whether you don't; whether you arrive at your
destination or whether you reach somewhere else, or whether you never get
anywhere at all, you're always busy, and you never do anything in
particular; and when you've done it there's always something else to do, and
you can do it if you like, but you'd much better not."
