Where did you get a stupid idea like that?



Scout January 26th 05 08:33 PM

It's a newsgroup for sailors.

Why do you ask?
Do you have a question?
Did you search the group archives for answers?
Do you expect saiors to cater to your reading wishes?
Do you expect us to give a rats ass about your needs?

Sam if you have some sailing related stuff to talk about.. just blurt
it out.

Don't be shy Sam.

Were all waiting Sam!

No... that is Joe in a good mood! You really don't want to see him when
he's ****ed off!

Yeah, I am new to this group... I didn't mean to step on anyone's toes.

A lot of groups get off-topic posts from non-regulars. I wasn't sure if
what I was reading was typical banter or just unwanted cross-posting.
At least this group is active...

I'd reccomend you hammer toes with a pick axe if you want to get any respect
around here.

The analogy of a Sailor's Bar is as good as any... sailing is discussed...
but so is anything else of interest. We don't cross post here as a rule.
You'll get to know the "regulars" soon enough.

Good Luck.... you'll need it... and a quick wit as well won't hurt at all.

Scout January 26th 05 11:45 PM

hyper-active is more like it. I have a feeling ADD and ADHD runs rampant
here, not to mention OCD, DD, and lots of other colorful quirks.

Sam,

A Question; What do you think a sailor should be? Let us understand what
YOU think we should be like?

Ole Thom

Thom Stewart January 27th 05 05:14 PM

Sam,

You sure pick the wrong guy to question. Joe is more a traditional
sailor (if there is such a person) than you'll ever come in contact
with.

Again, I ask you to tell us your idea of what a sailor should be.

samsail February 1st 05 12:21 AM

well... I guess a sailor is someone who always wants to be somewhere
they aren't... probably doesn't have much of a social life... enjoys
spending time aboard and thinks about nothing else...


JG February 1st 05 02:21 AM

A sailor is someone who always wants to be where he or she is at that
moment... becoming more than the sum of the person, the boat, and the
environment.

i guess sailing means something different to everyone. I wouldn't
suggest that my "opinion" of what a sailor is would be the same for
everyone.


JG February 2nd 05 11:12 PM

I agree, but there are a few here who are jihahists about it.
