Default Random acts of stupidity

Learning to sail used to be a required part of Navy ROTC here. This
stopped about 8(?) years ago. We used to give them sailing lessons, but
for the most part they weren't really interested. We tried to get them
motivated, but they tended to look at the sailboats about like a tank
commander looks at a horse. Well, you can lead a sailor to water, but
you can't make him sail. Or something like that.


Where are you Walt?
