It's pretty bad when you invite a fellow poster out on your boat and they
thumb their nose at you.
Certainly lacking in the social graces.


John has always had his own boat. *How many real boaters would you
expect to jump on an invitation to go for a slow ride in your "yacht",
dummy?


The slow ride part is of little consequence for a cocktail cruise. Two
drinks out, two back. They make a 12 volt blender.

At the time I offered to take Herring out fishing, his boat was out of
commission. At an earlier date, at the marina, when I met his wife, and
asked both of them aboard for a look-see, Herring displayed his manners
and said No!"


His wife was gracious. Herring was the same piece of **** then that he
is in here.


As a point of interest, I had a "regular" household blender on that
boat, along with a portable generator.

In general, we judge a person by their behavior and extend to them
civility and do not believe scurilious things about them. *However,
when their behavior becomes truly bad, we begin to believe these nasty
things and this criminal activity would explain a lot. *Extreme
animosity toward religion might be explained by something like this as
would be his animosity toward the South in general. *If someone
engaged in such an offense and was then in his mind persecuted by
southerners and by religious types...........
A person who would engage in such a crime is just the sort of
personality we would expect to be anti-social and narcissitic. *Given
the bizarre behavior and likely past criminal activity, I'd be very
careful about wanting to actually meet such a person and would in
general not believe anything he said..


Even if the allegation is true, he could have avoided this entire
incident by simply acting reasonable. So, I think he brought it on
himself.
