Nope... no soldiers as far as I know... and why would they be watching my
buttocks? [Marines?]

Now what pray tell has changed about my recent posts? Have I not always
sought to be equally obnoxious to all of you? Have I not tried to make
certain each of you is given their due attention?

Has it become so difficult for you to follow a simple thread that you find
it impossible to comprehend that when someone on a sailing group asks
"what's your point" and you answer 32 degree it might relate to the heading
of your vessel? You can't see the tie MC? Are you becoming so sensitive that
the slightest of jabs causes you to feel hurt?

....and since when have you allowed gentlemanly behaviour to interfere with a
good strike.

Go ahead MC..... point it out!! ;-)

Or is it that you can dish it out but you can't take it?

It's like this. We were talking about the military. In fact there have
been more posts about the military than sailing recently so I just
posted a "?" because the context was not clear. Was that wrong of me?
Now, I assumed they would be looking at your ass because you would be
point -being a hero and all. Perhaps I think too laterally for you. I
will try to limit myself to your level in future, I promise.

You have never been obnoxious.



Have I not tried to make
certain each of you is given their due affection?

Yes!



Let's face it, Mooron. You are a really nice, Canadian, sort of guy. You
couldn't be obnoxious if you tried!

You've got the vocabluary, but not the nationility. I used to believe that
you were Belgian, especially when you said that you were allergic to soap.
However, I'm rapidly coming to the conclusion that you use Imperial Leather
when you take a long bath -every day.

.... a Muskox hide... deliriously soft and comfortable... the sensation that
can only be appreciated on actual contact. It envelopes you in warmth,
luxury and delicious sensuality. An ice bucket stuffed with champagne and
the primal fervor evoked from a crackling fire... hypnotic and evoking. An
ice age cold that encompasses the wilderness, staved by the penetrating
warmth of a gentle caress. Wicked nothings whispered against the wind's
howling screams of protest beyond the log cabin door. Sensations, Seductions
and Sweet excess!

To be nowhere and everywhere.....

See what happens when the sea mends me in her icy grip..... I am once more
at one!
