I recall that Roger Long blowhard from the old alt.sailing.asa days. Talk
a
bout a know-it-all! So, now he's writing sailing rag articles? LOL! A
good
instance of the blind leading the blind.



Show us your POC card willie-boy.....



My *WHAT* card????

Have you read any sailing periodicals lately, Bruce. If so, you will note
how they are written at probably a sixth or seventh-grade level and they all
glorify irresponsibility and ineptitude. They're a disgrace and the folks
who write them have even less redeeming social value than the so shallow
articles themselves. A real writer would not be published because a real
writer would expose the stupidity and ineptitude that passes for today's
so-called sailor and expose in plain language applicable to sailing the
magazine articles that cater to the lowest common denominator. Get a clue,
boy! Surely, as dumb as you are you must agree that the typical sailing
magazine article is a JOKE.
