And he had a few things positive going on. IIRC he even sat for a 5
ton Capt. ticket.


Me thinks he caught the clap, and now his brain is rotting like
Hitlers did in his last days.

The Good Captain Neal is still very much respected among mariners.


More like a laughing stock, town clown, puppet show producing wanna-
be.

His
accomplishments are legion.


What French Legion?

His Master Mariner ticket is the highest and
most coveted of any seaman. Proof hehttp://www.badongo.com/pic/3853394

I bet it is to a seaman, but to the Captains out there it is a leaners
permit for a tiny boat. Neal's so pathetic no one would hire him, so
his ticket is useless and by now expired.

I know a fellow who has a Masters degree in electrical engineering but
works as a fireman

He e-mails me from time to time and I forward him a large box of his fan
mail. The last box I sent to Cape Town, South Africa. He's going round again
or those are his current plans at least.


Sure thing Nealbur, and I bet he has one hand tied behind his back
too...right? And he's on a 68 ft Swan named Chippawa just like your
Swan named Chippawa .

Pathetic
