 This from a bloke that brags a photo of himself sitting in a tiny boat
 petting a pussy?
A kitty cat is a proper addition to a sailing yacht as they will eliminate
any mouse or rat that might come aboard from who knows where.
 Do you have a kitty?! I love cats, but don't have any pets right now.
Yes, I rescued this feral kitten and now he's all grown up. He's still very 
timid around people and hides when strangers visit but he's a good hunter. 
He mostly hunts insects as that is about all that can get aboard. There was 
a mangrove snake he cornered one time in the lazarette just forward of the 
outboard motor, though. I had to grab it and toss it overboard but it swam 
to the dinghy and crawled up along the transom and got in so I rowed it over 
to the shore and put it off so it wouldn't keep coming back.
 I think if you left off the word conservative, you would have said it
 all. 
 Seriously though... I just don't get this liberal nonsense,
 especially what goes on in a place like this. How about some reasoned
 approach to finance?? Hello?
Well, aren't you sweet! But, you are right; one of these days people are 
going to have to WAKE UP and realize that money doesn't grow on trees. 
People who don't produce a damned thing are going to have to realize that 
they aren't worth a dime as far as payment for not producing a thing goes. 
This country is going to hell in a handbasket. Every high school student 
should have to read (and understand) Ayn Rand's, "Atlas Shrugged," before 
they are given a diploma. You seem so very sensible. If you haven't read 
"Atlas Shrugged" please do so as you are very much in the mold of Dagny 
Taggart.
