That's some sentence, Bertie...

So, you put yourself on the line defending our country from...

...North Vietnamese invading Topeka?

...Panamanians invading Philadelphia?

Did you help Ollie North mine harbors and kill Central American

fishermen?


Did you help our military put Iinochet in power?


What have you done to protect our country from our enemies? Union

organizing


is being the enemy




You're the one who made some bull**** claims about serving in the
military and protecting our country from unnamed enemies.

Which enemies, Bertie? Asians? Central Americans? South Americans?
Against which specific enemies did you put up your life? Were you shot
at? Were you wounded? Did you suffer a hangnail? What? Were you in
one
of Bush I's brigades to make Kuwait safe for continued Moslem

dictatorship?


Cone on, Bertie...impress us with your tales of military manliness...


I would have thought you would have been working on your custom made 36

foot

lobster boat today. Instead I find you in the NG all day.



You would have thought...if you were capable of it.

The only thing I have to do to get my boats ready is to transport back
the gear I took off last fall. I pay to have everything else done.



ROTFLMAO! Right Harry.

No true boater *pays* to have his boat readied for spring launch.

Just another BS story from you.




Really? That must be why at least 100 boaters with Grady-Whites and
Parkers book "recommissioning" three weeks ahead of time at the local
dealership, which stores several hundred customer boats over the winter.

I guess they are not true boaters, eh? Even though they have boats and
you do not, and we'll be boating all season and you'll be boatless.

Here's what the dealership does to ready my Parker:

Remove and dispose of the shrink wrap.
Check the trailer tires and bearings and hitch and electrical.
Charge batteries and reinstall in boat.
Tank test and adjust the engine, re-check all grease fittings. (oil was
changed last fall).
Check function on all boat mechanical and electrical systems.
Wash boat.
Wax boat.
Call me to tell me the boat is ready for pick-up.

All I have to do is show up with the fitted cushions and other stuff I
removed over the winter and sign the bill.

Easy, eh? Why do I know this? Because I'm looking at the work order
right now.

Most boaters I know take pleasure in working on their boats in the Spring.
But I guess all that work is beyond your capabilities.

Funny that you listed the work you are paying to be done on your Parker but
not your custom made 36 foot lobster boat....seems like that would be the
priority...that is, if it were a boat that you really owned.

LMAO!!
