Ah, the voice of the fool is heard thru the land. But my dear sir, it
is far better to be a joke then a horse's arse.



Says, "Bruce, stuck at a Bangkok Dock" for the past 25 years because
he failed to complete his planned circumnavigation because he wasn't
up to the task.

Failing, no matter how lofty the goal, is still failing. It is far better to
be a
success at coastal cruising than a failure at world cruising.

Tsk tsk!

And what goal would that be? World Cruising? Never contemplated it.
Sailing as a recreation? Been there, did that.
Earning a living and supporting my wife and family, been there and
done that too.

So tell us Mr. Meter Reader, what have you done?
