Well, then, I go back to my original post on this to you...that
as
a boating newsgroup, this place is lost, and that I show up
mainly
to watch the aberrant behavior of the seven dwarfs and (as you
mentioned) to crap on one of their heads from time to time.


None of the seven, so far as I can tell, has the slightest
interest in boating related subjects or, if they do, they seem
incapable of making any but the most empty headed of posts
(e.g.,
I took my kid wakeboarding yesterday, or, I took my 93
grandchildren on a cruise).


So...


Harry, your statement, "I show up mainly to watch aberrant
behavior...", is
belied by the sheer quantity of attack posts you make here.


I am willing to make you a deal. I will make no posts on Chuck's
Island if
you make no more than one more post here, in answer to this one.


Look what you'd have to gain!
Deal.


Not that you had anything to add, boating-wise, there or here.
D'oh...there he goes again.


That's what I did, braindead...I made one more post "here," in
answer
to your "deal." I interpreted "here" to mean the thread in which you
offered your deal, and nothing more than that. Perhaps if your
language skills were better, you would have worded your deal more
clearly.


Move on, braindead...you're getting nowhere with this one.


Where are your fellow dwarfs...I'm sure they'll take your side and
make you feel better.
Bull****.


You've shown what your word is worth, Harry.


Sure, John. As if your worthless offer would be some sort of real
incentive to me, beyond that thread itself. But, hey, you believe
whatever your peabrain tells you. What you think, feel or do here or
elsewhere doesn't matter to me. You're just one of the dwarfs.


BTW, you ever take that new boat of yours out on the Bay? Maybe you
can
tow it behind your new camper.


This is comical. *John got you in a "gotcha". * Give him the victory
and
move on.
There will be many more schoolyard recess debates to be won, of that I
am
sure.


Eisboch


No, he doesn't. I presumed he was referring to the thread at hand. He
offered no incentive that was worth anything to me. Now, if he promised
to
propel himself on his motorcycle into a bridge abutment at 90 mph. well
*that* would have been something to consider.


No comment.
Right now I am going down to the BOAT *to change a circuit breaker that I
ordered and *arrived yesterday.
Remember BOATS? * They float in water and usually provide a great deal of
pleasure and relaxation.


Eisboch


And I'm taking my brand new travel trailer back to the dealer because the
electric brakes aren't working. Fun times for everyone.


Who installed the brake controller?
Before you take it to the dealer, it might be a good idea for you to become
familiar with your braking system and how to test it.


I've already taken it and returned. I determined something was wrong by
following the procedures for setting up the controller.

They replaced the controller and fixed a problem with the brakes on one
side of the trailer. All works well now!

Of course, I spent about $80 in gas getting back and forth!


Bad Karma.
