My boat have a fan here, yours don't.


Actually, a number of people have expressed admiration for my
boat(s).
Most people that walk by the dock stop, look, and smile.

Most sailors here avoid saying bad things about other sailor's boats;
in
the same way that most polite people will avoid saying bad things
about
other people's children. OTOH you feel a need to brag constantly
about
how your boat is so strong, so fast, etc etc.

Strong, and fast compared to your tugboat.

I have no need to brag.

Sort of like the way
Bobsprit always had to brag about his toys.


Not quite, Bobspirt never had an ASA fan name himself after Ghost or
Alien. Just like you have no true fans..

That's not true Joe..... I for one admire Doug's innate arrogance,
superficiality and shallowness as well as his vast knowledge base of
sailing related information...... just like I admire you for being a
true red-blooded, Red Necked Texan who will never back down from attack
in the finest Alamo fashion.

If you know your history, it wasn't a question of backing down, the
defenders had little choice. They realized that if they fled, they would
be easily cut down by Mexican cavalry, as indeed some of the defenders
did, and were. Maybe the analogy is fitting, OTOH.

John ... as a self proclaimed citizen of the world I would expect a much
higher level of introspection and compassion from you. You are attempting to
describe grey in black & white terms with no quantitve values.
