We need another government agency to check everyone's pocket knives.
Jeeeesh.
See - this is what you get when you have people who have never hunted
or fished in their lives or understand why you would have to open a
knife with one hand.
I can open all my picket knifes with one hand including my Leatherman.
Time to start another campaign.
I know of one person here who would have swamped his boat if he'd had
a slow-to-open knife. *He wouldn't have been able to cut away his
anchor "in a flash" that time he set anchor in breaking waves.
Who does that, anyway?
Not me. Obviously, not you, since you "boat" on a flat inland lake in,
ugh, South Carolina.- Hide quoted text -

You were either lying yesterday, or lying today, which is it?:

substantial waves right over the bow, and I thought I was going to
lose
the boat. But I was able to cut the anchor line in a flash, start up
the

Moron indeed. *I primarily boat inland, and I know better than that.
You forgot the critical clause, **** for brains...


"...when the wind shifted..."


Nice try, Mr. I Anchor Close To The Beach And Wonder Why Waves Fill My
Boat.


I didn't define "close to the beach," Mr. Redneck. We were well outside
the area where the breakers usually were found. The incident was a
fluke, no harm was done. It wasn't as if I moved to the center of a
state once known as one of the last bastions of southern racism and
bigotry, so I could live in a house next to the interstate.


You lost an anchor, almost lost the boat, and soiled your pants. *No
harm?
You moved to a state that IS the last bastion of the KKK. *Hmmm.


How's the noise and smell there, Jackoff?


You're not around... smells fine here. *Remember, the metropolitan
area I live in has far less than 1/10th the people in it than the
cesspool you're in. *And why would you think I live next to an
interstate, anyway? *Stalking? *hehe...- Hide quoted text -

I know someone who's been by Harry's house. He doesn't have anything
compared to what he purports to have. And that area is chuck FULL of
rednecks.


He lives in a tiny house, in a subdivision with tiny lots, with no
barn, no long driveway, no lobster boat. I'll bet my detached
workshop is nearly as big as his whole house.
