BTW, you didn't say how big your garden is?


Normal suburban yard, one end stops at the road, both sides are
neighbours fences and the other end is the river...about a mile and a
quarter to the other side, but my property ends at the high water mark
:-)


Salt water, then..... Any fishing??? Can you keep your boat there?

I hope they stay there. I don't believe in rehabilitation.

I've heard that rich people are very nice. However, they can be just a
little bit arrogant. Very rich people can sometimes bo so arrogant that
they become unbearable!

Maybe I'm not arrogant/rich enough?????

Yep, Yep Yep, I keep the Seawind there tucked in behind the pontoon
in what oncewas a meshed off pool area.


*******! Now I'm really upset with you!

What kind of fish do you catch? Do you eat them? .... or is the water to
polluted?

Donal if I needed to prove my superiority to anyone it wouldn't be to
you , here.


.... But you *do* have a really expensive house, don't you? You *do*

know
much more about sailing than I do, don't you? You own more homes- in

more
countries - than I do, don't you? Your kids are smarter than mine, and
your wife is prettier, aren't they? You have more boats than I have.

You
travel more than I do(first class, no doubt).


Hey Donal, Facts are facts.
You want to delve into my life, you get the answers you seek
THEN tell me I shouldn't have answered.

Oh and I travel business class because the few times I've gone 1st
I've ended up with noisy uncouth pop stars, a faded American movie
star who talked loudly whenever she was awake about her latest movie
offers and how much she'd make and an Australian politician who got
drunk and abusive.
The passengers in business are much nicer as you may know.

Maybe you don't *need* to prove your superiority..... you just do it for

fun
perhaps??


You're on about proving.
Donal, all I'm doing is answering your incessant questions to the best
of my ability.

You don't like it then Shut the F**K up!


Emmm... I'm confused.





In other words, being a rich ex-copper doesn't make you better than an
honest person. It probably doesn't make you any happier either.

ahh so now you think I'm not an honest man?
Bwaaaahahhahahaaaa.
Donal oh Donal, how low can you go?


Didn't you admit to conning a wealthy American?


Nope, I admitted allowing him to buy my yacht at the price he offered
I in no way coerced him, he saw sentimental value and was wealthy
enough to pay whatever he wanted to sucure that sentiment.

Is it only a crime to con someone if the victim is elderly?


Nope, why, you planning on conning someone.
I never have but my impression is you'll need to sharpen your act to
succeed.



Perhaps you should cheer yourself up by putting on your gold braided

Greek
Captain's cap, and admiring yourself in a mirror?

No gold braid Donal, that was a fabrication of your fertile
imagination.


You don't deny that it is encrusted with diamonds?


I'll neither confirm nor deny.

But I do check in the morror now and then to make sure that no flabby
bits are developing ;-)


Don't worry. Those expensive Greek caps never get flappy bits - even in

an
F8!


Oh, I'm not worried about my hat, its my ageing body that is my
concern. I can buy a new hat next month if I wish, a genuine one.



Regards


Donal




Oz1...of the 3 twins.
I welcome you to crackerbox palace,We've been expecting you.

You whacked his nerve again Donal.... must be the practice you get playing
darts at the pub. ;-)

He'd strike back but he'll need a professional instructor to show him how
...... Bwahahahahahahaaa!

No Ozzy... the truth would be that you are a prematurely senile, rapidly
aging, affluent, pretentious, arrogant eccentric that wears ridiculous
outfits... and whose offspring obviously require professional instruction
to graduate from eating out of the cat's bowl and dinning at the table.

I mean that in the nicest possible way... ;-)

I've no interest in your life at all. I do have an interest in human
behaviour. I find it odd that you should need to prove yourself here, in
Usenet.



Oh and I travel business class because the few times I've gone 1st

I may, or may not, know that. It isn't something that is germaine to a
sailing newsgroup, is it?

You're on about proving.
Donal, all I'm doing is answering your incessant questions to the best
of my ability.


Hmmm. Everybody else refuses to answer questions about personal wealth.
Just like I did!
As I said a couple of days ago, *words* are the only currency here.

I'm poor, and so are you. The only difference is that you already think
that you are as good as, or better than, Bob, Mooron, Scout, CA, OT, Neal,
Katy, etc, etc.....

I left out the obvious, so as not to cause offence to many others.




You don't like it then Shut the F**K up!


Don't worry! I *do* like it.

BTW, there really is no need to use foul language!


Nope, why, you planning on conning someone.
I never have but my impression is you'll need to sharpen your act to
succeed.


I don't think so. I'm quite happy dealing with the same customers that I
had 12 years ago.

If you are honest and straight, then you customers will come back ... again
... and again. It really is much easier that way. Of course, some idiots
go for the quick buck, but they have to work twice as hard!

Naturally, when I meet a customer, I don't wear a fancy cap. Ex-cons never
do!

Oh come now Donal... even an impoverished, backwoods, redneck, sod turner
like myself knows the only thing you have to know about flying first class
is .. You get on First, You get off First.... and don't make eye contact
with the people in "Steerage"
