You can do what pleases you. My point is something my dear old Dad

one time you'll end up doing neither well. So you can cruise and you can
telephone. But it's not the same as doing one or the other and doing it
well.

Got to agree. Worse thaing that can happen to a man at sea is know
what is going on back on the beach. Once had a buddy who got a dear
jon letter at sea. He had another 60 days left befor the boat was
heading back. He was a walking xombie. Nearly killed a guy and later
himself cause he was day dreamming of some fuffy muffy. All he could
think about was that muffy back home with some Jody.
