A meaningful response, indeed.

Yup that sums it up. Always have a plan B.... but even more important
Bruce: keep and open mind and always improve yourself.When a person
isnt learning true stuff (best practices based on research/facts) they
are gona keep messing up. Those folks are easy to spot by their
language:
Gaawd damn its a damn shame that happened Bubba.
ya but not much ya can do bout that Bear. **** happens ya kno.
Yup, ya cant go through life trying to be safe and protect ur self
from every thing all the time. hell yald never get nuthin dun Bubba.

Im a bleliver.... 99.99% of injuries and boat crashes/loss are
predictable and preventable.... Hell just look at ole JoE formerly of
the Red Clown and SKip and Lydia. Those two losses were easily
predicted.... and i think they were right here by this wonderful peer
review process we have on RBC.

Time to go get the chickens up.........

bob.

Then how do you explain those idiots who manage to do OK? There are
people you bump into in life who you just wonder how they manage to put
one foot in front of the other yet they seem to do just fine, they don't
plan and research yet they always do OK. And what about those who plan
and plan, and spend years researching, do all possible to eliminate
possible failure and yet things go catastrophically bad, as an example
take Apollo 13?

Apollo 13, Shuttles Columbia and Challenger, Titanic, Amelia Earhart,
Steve Fossett, Pete Blake, you could go on and on of people who
embraced risk and failed..... but as JFK said "you have to risk
greatly to achieve greatly"

So ignore bOb, he is not a good example of anything,...except "waking
up chickens" maybe.

Listen to someone like Pete Goss who says: "Life hangs on a very thin
thread and the cancer of time is complacency. If you are going to do
something, do it now. Tomorrow is too late." Pete's lost a boat or
two, but he's racing in the Route du Rhum next mo. and I think he's
going to win.

bOb and his lover Nealbur both need to sit in on one of Pete's
corporate teaching sessions on embracing risk. They both are meek and
timid at best.
