Unless you have a peculiar definition of NE of USA, it looks like you

Actually, I've been checking the headers on his posts intermittently for a

Small word, my grandparents are all from Moore and Norman.

Must be a small world...

The Stanford
& Scott family's goes way back in Moore.

I'm familiar with a few Scott's in the area. Don't know any Stanford's
personally that I can recall.

The 10 acres my Grandfathers
house and small farm were on sadly now is an apartment complex.

What's the address or the closest intersection?

I still
remember the driveway was paved with local rose quartz.

When my mother was killed by a drunk driver when I was a teenager, the rose
rock was one of my favorite possesions that I received from her estate,
which wasn't much. Everything else burned to the ground this past
Christmas.

I loved the
summer there with the Locust buzzing in the trees, and grandpa's
concode grape ripening on the vines and huge garden full of the best
veggies on earth.

It's a great place to raise children. Although they are teenagers now and
I'm thinking about renting out my home and moving to Hawaii or Florida until
the mortgage is paid off.

Most the Stanfords were oilfiled people. Still have family members in
Norman.

I was big in the oil boom of the '80's. T. Boone Pickens was a family
friend back in those days. http://www.famoustexans.com/boonepickens.htm

Big names, big places...in those days. Don't remember the Stanford's, but
I've slept a few times since then.

Also Lloyd Noble, Jr. talk about Liberace or Bob Crantz!

I am a long term sailor with over 30 years of experience on the water in
various boats, that I've chartered, owned, rented, borrowed or stole.
I'm also a long term member of this group and this is my very first
posting.

I was under the assumption that this group was for people interested in
sailing, sailors, the ASA, training, piloting, safer boating, boats,
rigging, sails, racing, cruising, and... holes in the water that you
throw money into.

Am I mistaken?

according to the FAQ...

"1.0 Newsgroup origin
alt.sailing.asa was begun by the American Sailing Association in 1990 as
a
forum for the exchange of ideas by people who share an interest in the
sport and lifestyle of sailing. At the time, the only other, similar
newsgroup was rec.boats. alt.sailing.asa had a more specific focus."


People, if I was a new boot that had a modicum of interest in sailing,
and I trolled the newsgroups to expand my knowledge base, and found this
group, I'd say to myself, "hmmm, this is the ASA group, must be they
know what the big deal is about all of this sailing stuff."

and what, pray tell would I see?

snippy, obnoxious, pretentious, moody, self-centered, materialistic,
"mine is better than yours" "yours is a POS" meglomaniac, narcissistic,
holier than thou, whiners that seem to spend more time ****ing and
moaning, or celebrating their last purchase of some trinket, car, house,
camera, boat, pair of shoes...
anything but putting your feet over the gunwale and enjoying the wind in
your hair, the pure joy of you, the wind, and your journey.

What would I think if I saw these posts?
I would think...
"You know, based on what I see here, I'm not too sure i'd like to belly
up almost the price of a home for a boat to meet and greet these people.
"

I know that sailors are a unique breed. I am one. I'm a bit off center.
ok, sometimes I don't know where center is!
I also know that over these past 30 years, I have meet some of the most
wondeful people on the face of the earth. People that will give you the
shirt off of their backs if you've been in the sun too long, people that
will without question, give you a tow, food, fuel, and a place to hang
your hat if need be. People that catch a fish, side up next to you and
say... "you got wine for this?"

So, heres just a suggestion.
Instead of looking for confirmation of your existance thru your latest
Amex purchase, or touting what a wonderful consumer you must be, or
deriding someone else for what they thought was a decent idea at the
time, or, instead of lambasting some poor sap for their foilables, hows
about we kinda, sorta, maybe, discuss what we all profess to love.
Sailing, our boats, the water, our first mates (the keepers of the
budget), our sailing friends and families, our trips, our journeys our
adventures and our joys. hey, its just a thought.
There are literally hundreds of thousands of people that are considering
"going boating" this year... what do you say about helping further the
cause?

A bit about the poster:

I have never circumnavigated the world. Don't plan to, don't need to. If
you have, or are going to, I wish you well. Good for you.

My hole in the water is celebrating her 30th birthday this year. She is
only 27 ft long, but has all I and the boss need for a weekend, or a
week on "our" 89,000 acre lake.

She has a full sail locker with 100, 120, and 165 hanked jibs. we even
fly a spinniker when we get a wild hair in our butt.

Over the past 30 years I've run aground so many times I've considered
putting wheels on her keel. If you haven't, good for you, I'm proud of
you.

Her Atomic 4 has never failed us. Last years fuel costs? 38.00. this
year so far... 20.00.

We don't have solar panels, wind generators, water maker, or forward
looking sonar. We do have a 8D battery for the house, and a 4D back up
and a 30 gallon fresh water tank. The princess 2 burner suits us just
fine, thank you. The ice box goes thru about 20 lbs a day in August. we
deal wih it. No flat panel here, a radio/cd works wonders for the
ambiance. One thought... the full moon, a comfy cockpit and a good book.

The forward V-berth demands that we snuggle. Thats not a bad thing. I
like to say that she'll sleep six friends or 2 family members. My 15
year old son has caught the "bug" and We're looking to upgrade, so I can
hand our faithful, reliable friend down to him.

From early March to late November, She, the boss and I have a wonderful
threesome on that lake almost every weekend, from friday afternoon to
late sunday evening. In fact, in just two weeks, we are relocating to an
abode within minutes from her so we can spend more time on her.

"Boats are the nearest thing to dreams that man has ever made"

"Wherever we want to go, we'll go. That's what a ship is, you know. It's
not just a keel and a hull and a deck and sails, that's what a ship
needs... but what a ship is... what the Black Pearl really is... is
freedom."

rant over, returning you to your regularly scheduled program.

Then I suggest you try standing on a different street corner.



Looks like her huge ass fell on your chest in one of those pictures!

Al least we're unable to use her bottoms as a storm jib, like you did last
weekend.

Thats a war wound caused by stupidity and loss of glasses. and her a**... is
just right as far as I'm concerned.


My boyfriend carries me around from sofa to bed, etc.

Drunken/narcotic induced stupor, or has a make-up application in-the-mirror
auto accident left you unable to get around without your medicare scooter?


But he's a 6' 6" hunk without one ounce of fat on him, just muscle. You
should workout some time.

After losing 50 lbs, I suppose I should but after 4 heart attacks, 4 angios
and 6 stents, I'm really quite lucky to be vertical and mobile.


Anymore smart**, from the self-centered, insignificant, sycophant-succubus?

See, its all fun and games till you go after family....
