Living sheltered lives.
 
You guys and gals are pathetic. You've never sailed
more than a couple of miles from your dock.

I, on the other hand, have sailed thousands of miles
and have sailed internationally - like where you must
have your passport stamped. How many of you wannabes
even have a passport? Show of hands please! Bwahahahah!
Thought so - I can put the list on the head of a pin.

How is it you can live your whole lives and sail no further
than you can spit and then claim to be sailors? Not only
that, but you've the cheek to criticize me and my boat
that has been in more foreign ports than you have
pimples on your ass and that's a lot of ports.

Maybe one of these days you idiots will get up the nerve
to do what I do - sail where I want when I want. To me
it's all the same. The Keys, The Bahamas, Chesapeake Bay,
Mobile Alabama, Rum Cay, Bermuda, George Town, Long Island,
Isla Meujera, Key West, Flamingo, Okracoke, Venice,
Panama City, Nashville, Turks and Caicos, Haiti, etc. etc.

It's great to be me.

S.Simon - I've been everywhere, man!

Who are you talking about? Several of us have crossed oceans
either in command of or crewing on sailboats.

6 cancelled passports filled with stamps and a current one.

That's what.. 5 stamps? I've got that on just two pages of one of my
passports.

Anyone who lives in the US leads a sheltered life. Have you really been
anywhere other than Florida? One would think not, based on that statement.

Sounds like you fly about as much as Lady Pilot.

I've been all over - even to Viet Nam/Cambodia courtesy of
Uncle Sam, Japan courtesy of U.S. Suzuki Motor Corp. and
Cuba and Colombia courtesy of the Mob. I've sailed my yacht
all over the Bahamas up to Bermuda and down to Haiti/DR.
My yacht has sailed the Mona Passage. I flew to Paris
one time but will NEVER go again. What a pigsty! I've even
been to Canada and Alaska. I lived in Utah for a while and
rode a motorcyle all over the west even down to Mexico.

I was born in Massachusetts, raised mostly in Missouri,
worked and lived in Kentucky, Alabama, Tennessee,
Mississippi, and Florida. Call me a redneck if you want.
I like the South.

I've sailed around and across Tennessee, Kentucky,
Alabama, Florida. I've coasted Florida, Georgia, North
and South Carolina Cuba, and most all of the Bahama Chain.

As you can see, you're sadly mistaken.

You sailed to Nashville? Wow! You da man!

No wonder nobody takes you seriously.

You haven't lived until you've lived in California. When we
have an election, we don't go half way with 3 or 4 candidates.
We have 130. Florida, the joke of the world. Hardly. California
is the joke of the universe.

I'm hoping Angelyne gets the governership. Either she or Larry
Flynt (the real one, not that bozo who was posting a while back).
