Better than from such as you - the stoned, the shut-in and the lubberly
(not to mention cocksure, crude, crass and craven). Get a life - become a sailor instead of a land-bound laborer. CN "Capt. Mooron" wrote in message news:h4%Sd.26505$NN.5890@edtnps89... Well Well Well....... the sermon on lifestyle from the Moored and Docked! CM "Capt. Neal®" wrote in message ... You and I think alike in many ways. We may differ as to which is the proper hull material for a small blue water yacht but we definitely have our priorities straight in that we choose to live aboard rather than ashore. We choose freedom over servitude, challenge over sloth, variety over hum-drum, simplicity over complication, being in control over being controlled and Mother Nature over works of man. Ours is the life of a nomad, a warrior, a man in harmony who is not afraid to face a variety of challenges and to control our own destiny while employing any number of learned and innate skills to keep our home and conveyance operational and reliable so that, by the work of our own hands we trust our very lives. We are men and proud men at that. Would that there were more such men here and in the world to keep it from being the mean and tawdry place it has become of late. Hope to see you, your stout ship and fine crew on the high seas one of these days. Respectfully, Capt. Neal "Joe" penned the following perceptive words: Indeed to suffer a sailing (season) less 6+ mo a years, and to have to wrap your boat is down right lubbery. To own a boat that is not capable of living aboard... and not living aboard... put you in the class of the weekend warriors. And to not have the seatime or ambition to sit for a Capt. ticket shows no ambition or savy of the way of the sea.....and again is lubbery. How they can sleep at night without being rocked to bed is beyond me. Anyone who spends more time ashore than afloat is lubbery IMHO. Joe |

I've never been described as C4..... but a change would be required ...
cocksure, cunning, courageous and clever would be acceptable and much closer to the truth of the matter. CM "Capt. Neal®" wrote in message (not to mention cocksure, crude, crass and craven). |
