You can't be a sailor...Your a girl..
I mean a female sailor..Thats just stupid.


You're right. Well, sorta. I'm a female sailor. But I was just pulling your leg.
I'm not the Ellen MacArthur in that web site I put the link in to. But, that Ellen does
look like a boy, doesn't she? But, she's really a girl. And she's a very good sailor.
She's won sailboat races going all around the world. She's beaten lots of men.
Compared to you I'm poor. I only sail a little sailboat. Only 18-feet long.
But, it's fun. Probably more fun that a great big one that you can't sail by
yourself. It's OK having pilots and captains and servants but it's a drag too.
Everybody doing things for you all the time. No privacy. Manners. No fun at all....

Cheers,
Ellen

I doubt that..

Not really....Your just telling yourself that.

I get all the privacy I want...Anyone does anything I don't like and
blam they are gone.
After all sailors are ten a penny.


Cheers,
Ellen

You could be right but you never know if you don't try it....

Could be but I don't think so. I can have all the men around me I want. All
trying to get something I got outta me. And it's fun and flattering for a while.
But then it gets old. I enjoy and value time by myself without having to be
concerned with other people or making decisions for other people.

I doubt that... :-) *Daddy* probably doesn't let some spoiled brat tell him
how to hire and fire.

I can tell you don't even spend your own money if you think that. Duh!

Cheers,

Well it's true..
The world is full of wanna be seaman..
Dreaming all day long about sailing my boat, for a bit of loose change.

It might be because it's a very impressive yacht. Some people might think it's
more like a vacation than work. Free room and board. Free travel. Good experience.
Rubbing elbows with the rich and famous.... You know, all that stuff. Money's
not everything. I sure even you enjoy some things that are not bought and sold.
What about a beautiful sunset or a rainbow or a good dog who loves you or help
from a good friend?

Cheers,
Ellen

snipped all the cynical comments which means I snipped everything

I just don't know what to make of you, John.... You should be happy but you sound
all cynical and disillusioned. You sound young too. Too young to be acting like some
fed up already individual. I think Daddy needs to give you a good spanking. You aren't
one of those Thailand lady boys are you?

Cheers,
Ellen

Damn you're cheap! Most of the hookers on the docks charge
at least two bucks.

dogs.
