Christ, getting a bit melodramic, ya?
I was talking to a 500 ton tug master a couple days ago. before hed
been a recreational sailboat guy. While racing past south africa his
boat lost a mast n punched a hole in the side. It all took bout 15 min
before the boat sunk.

I asked him if he still saild recreationally. His reply was:
"...going around in cirlces seems a bit pointless...."

Why did the chicken go sailing?
To get to the other side.

Well what to do tonight. O ya, go have a couple drincks at a local
dive bar and try not to step on all the toads on the way home.......
