Lurkers
Man my figurehead picture I posted has had close to 300 views.
And several downloads. Makes me wonder just how many lurkers follow this group for all the expert sailing tips some of us provide here for free. It is odvious 100's and hundreds follow along yet are to meek to type anything here. How can we charge them? Thanks for your suggestions Joe |
You don't even want most of the lurkers to post. They lurk because they are illiterate and have nothing to say worthwhile. Come to think of it, though, the same thing can be said of Gaynz, Bobsprit, BB, Ozone, Vito, Miss Mo'lissa, Katysails and several others. CN "Joe" wrote in message oups.com...

"katysails" hunted and pecked . . . Yes...every word you type is so worthwhile that I print them off and use them as yoilet paper... But, you still haven't learned something very important. Woman should always wipe from front to back. Why you insist on doing it the other way is something I will never understand. CN |

I do not enjoy arguing politics. I do not enjoy arguing about whether my car (et al.) is "better" than bobsprit's. I post once in a while; but mostly lurk. I just don't want to participate in most of the crap that gets started here. Useful suggestions? Sorry, I really can't think of anything except to say, "Talk more about sailing and less about other crap." But that's not really a realistic comment. Frank |

I would but found out 299K+ of the views was bob crantz.
Skeered me so much I took it off the boat and sold it, just what I need.... to come out one morning and have Bob hanging upside down humping my bow pulpit like one of Gilligans flying monkeys. Who needs that kind of headache? Joe |

Never, unless there is a nice storm going on and I want to watch out

You do get a good view of some impressively tall buildings, if that's
what you like. Me, I'd rather see grass and trees.
