Oh gee - that hurt real bad. I'm hanging my head in shame - I'm
crushed - shattered - prostrate in humble submission.

By the way - that's prostrate not prostate. The former is a state of
sublimation - the later is a gland.

When's the last time you posted anything boating related?


Just abut thirty seconds ago. And twice yesterday. Once the day
before that. Two the day before that.

Do you even have a boat?


A very nice 2000 Ranger 200C Sportfisherman center console with a 2006
ETEC 200 HO - full electronics suite to boot. The boat is in showroom
condition by the way - I spend a lot of time making sure it stays that
way. I had the bottom redone over last winter - even posted some
pictures of it here. Didn't see any commentary from you though - must
have been one of those days where you were either in awe of a well
maintained eight year old boat and just couldn't bring yourself to
post something about it. Either that or there wasn't a non-boating
post you could bitch about which is probably the more likely of the
two.

Oh - allow me to mention that I'm negotiating on a Grady White Canyon
33 - finally got them to agree to sell it without the engines so I can
power it with triple 250 ETECs. All that's left is to give them the
deposit and have it moved so I can have the engines and electronics
installed over the winter. Eisboch talked me out of his Mainship.

Pay attention, REC.BOATS.


Really? Hmmm - seems like somebody has a hair across his ass today.

What do you figure that means?


What I figure YOU meant was that your life is barren and devoid of
meaning in addition to being so intellectually limited that the only
concern of your empty miserable life is posting about boats and such.

That's what I figured you meant.
