Hey Frank;

How about putting a "Sculling Oar" in their hands, Like I did to you?
That will shut any one up.

DC; It's time YOU tell us why you are afraid to sail with your Husband?
That Balboa is a nice boat. A little small but should handle that Lake
pretty well (I took my US NAVY BOOT TRAINING on the Lake!) Give us some
more information and we can address the problem.

By the way, I've sailed most of my life but I learned more about boat
handling when I had an all Female crew.

If your not trolling and want to sail with hubby; give us a shot. It
will be your problem to weed out the "Smart Alec's" but you can get a
lot of answers here.

I don't use spell check for usenet posting.

A dress store owner ordered a shipment of evening gowns for his shop. When
they
arrived, the poor man found there had been a mistake. Half the garments
were
coats, 20 percent were children's sizes and 24 of the garments were both
coats
and in sizes for children. There were only 99 of the evening dresses he
had
ordered. How many had he ordered initially?

I can solve the puzzle. Can you?

A man is walking and on his way to Bristol. He comes to a fork in the road
where two brothers are standing. He is uncertain which path to take to reach
Bristol, and needs help from one of them. The walking man has heard of these
brothers, and knows that one always tells the truth, and the other always
lies. The walking man is allowed to ask one question and one question only.
He can direct the question to only one of the brothers, but he does not know
which is the liar and which is always truthful. What question does he ask?

Most of the folks here have been here for ages and have gone beyond
the question point.
Why do you have a fear of sailing with your husband? Is he unskilled?
Oftentimes it is best if women learn to sail from someone other than
their spouse/boyfriend/etc.

I don't understand this comment! If a woman has faith in her husband,
then
this question shouldn't arise.

Donal,
We are in agreement. My wife has never known relaxation anywhere else like
sailing.

Nope. Doesn't prove anything except that I am not going to give you
the answer to the puzzle.

That'd be the first time.

Is this puzzle from your math homework?

Yes, of course I can


Please solve the puzzle and post your answer.



Nope. You asked if I could. I said I can. The burden of proof is
now on your side.


Okay. I guess this seems like proof that you can't solve the puzzle. You are
also now a proven liar, since you said you could solve the puzzle, and now it
has been proven that you can't. Case closed, unless you immediately post the
correct answer to the puzzle. If you do, I will apologize.

I don't need the answer to the puzzle. I can figure it out myself. The point
here is that YOU can't figure out the puzzle. IT's not a matter of you won't,
it's a matter of you CAN'T, you moronic ****.


Ah, we get to the name calling. Now you've proven just exactly what
you are. And I do know the answer.

OK... well I won't spoil the other puzzle for Katy - I would ask a bro
to tell me which way the other bro would tell me to go to Bristol. If I
asked the honest guy, he'd tell me the truth - that the other brother
would tell me to go the wrong way - so I'd go the other way.
Conversely, if I'd asked the liar, he'd lie and tell me the wrong way
that the other bro would say. So again, I'd go the other road.
