Don't ever preach to me about hard work. I can outwork your dried up old
ass any day of the week.
That's because you have to work to survive. You don't have the freedom
or the gonads to retire and enjoy your life or go sailing. Society has
you caught in its grips. You are too weak to escape.
No Captain, I have the gonads to stick by the people who need me and not
selfishly run off and hide in some floating tub.

I've built a successful company from the ground up, sold it, and retired
into teaching. My pension is self-made, so get your facts straight.
A teacher! Bwahahahhahahahahahh! Those who can, do; those who
cannot, teach!
You seem to enjoy flaunting your certifications. Care to compare areas of
competency? licenses?

Typical liberal job. Get tenured so you cannot be fired
for your ineptitude. Yes Sir, that's a manly job to be sure.
Again, your ignorance is showing. Tenure means entitlement of due process.
Ironically, as a postal worker, you have the same tenure rights. How do you
not know this?

Teachers don't even pay into the Social Security system.
Jesus, you must get tired of being WRONG.
Teachers pay 6.20% Soc Sec., same as everyone else.

My advice to you is
butt out of criticizing a system that you don't even contribute to.
No? Would you like to refund what I've paid into the system since I began
teaching?

I didn't get a job delivering mail so I could suck a pension from the tit
of society.

Neither did I! But you did get a job teaching so you could suck off the
taxpayer's teat and then are such a hypocrit that you criticize a system
to which you don't contribute. Typical whining liberal!
First thing is this: I'm not a liberal. You're the one who believes that,
not I.
Secondly, I teach because I've got something to offer society. People who
begin teaching in their 40s are not likely to be career teachers. There is a
difference although you may not be able to understand it.

As for pathetic, your posts are much better examples. How many more times
will you be stroking yourself with a claim of being the only sailor in
the ng?

As often as it takes to shame you pretend sailors into accepting the
reality
that you aren't sailors by any stretch of the word. The lot of you are
workaday lubbers who only pretend because you don't have the guts to
do or to admit you are afraid to do.
Afraid? my boat was no where near the quality of yours, but I still took her
through the rough ocean inlets off the Jersey coast. My confidence is in
myself, not in my boat.

Do you have a life?
Yes.

a family?
Yea.
For your sake, I'm pleased to hear these things.

any skills?
More than you have to be sure.
I doubt that.

a female friend (human)?
Affirmative!
LP?

any prospects for anything other than a sad and lonely end?

Many more than some deskbound professor whose cardiovasular
system is on the verge of collapse.
Deskbound professor? (looking over my shoulder for a deskbound professor).
Let me assure you good Captain, I am not in any cardiovascular [check your
spelling] danger. Unlike you, I workout daily. I am a champion in wrestling,
football, and track. Phsyically you would have no chance of besting me; in
my presence, your safety would be at will, my will. Fortunately for you I am
a compassionate man with no need to crush any but those who challenge or
threaten me or my loved ones. Currently I can bench press close to 400
pounds and can run a mile without being winded. I'm hardly deskbound. No
doubt you think I'm bull****ting, perhaps after I move closer to Scotty he
will confirm this for you.

I have always respected your sailing knowledge and skills. That's about
as far as it goes. Don't push your luck.

You are wise to respect the knowledge and skills of your betters.
I give credit where credit is due. No more, no less.

Now, go read a book or something. Preferably a book about sailing because
that's about as close to sailing as you're going to get.
I am reading the work of Horace Mann at the moment.
I will sail plenty, you don't need to worry about that!

Cheers,
now let me get back to work, damn it!
