Scotty's sarcastic notes didn't address the gist of my original
note, of course. (They never do. - He seems to be afraid to actually
get into a discussion relating to the substance of what was posted.
Like a spoiled little brat, if he doesn't like the gist of the
discussion, he hides behind his snide, cutesy remarks so he won't
have to actually respond to what was said. - Knowing that if he did,
he would get his ass kicked.)

But in any event, does anyone doubt what was stated in my post
regarding Wilbur's problems?

has to do what he can to get out on the water and should realize
even an unnoteworthy vessel is better than no vessel at all.




Keeping this in mind, don't you think it would be wise for a
lawyer to show up in this group with boat having a quality name. A
Hinckley, a Swan, a Wauquiez, a Morris, an Oyster, a Contest. You
get the picture. Could you honestly have much confidence in a
lawyer who could not afford one of the above or was so ignorant
that he sailed a MacGregor
26? ---------------------------------------------------------------------




To anyone who hasn't realized it, Wilbur (or whoever he is) posted
the initial note trolling in an attempt to get a response from me
(the only lawyer on the ng who owns a MacGregor). Since I didn't
take the bait, he was stuck with all the indignant responses from
everyone else and more or less made an ass of himself. Sorry,
Wilbur. - Better luck next time!

As for my legal practice, although I'm technically retired, I have
all the work I can handle, thank you.

Jim



Take a pill, Jim...you're sounding strident...


Sorry Katy. In any event, I hope you have a pleasant evening.

Jim



I like it when I aggravate you until you get strident pats own back.
It shows my superiority. Bwaaahahahahahahahaha! It's good to see I've
got you thinking about your embarrassing choice of a boat.

You'll never make a decent troll. You don't have a clue about what
motivates a troll. The type of response matters little. As a matter of
fact, the more indignant the response the better. Trolls are puppet
masters. Not, that I claim to be one. I'm just a sailor who likes to
talk about sailing. And motoring around in a Mac26 is a far cry from
sailing. So, get off the group you big dope!

You don't get it, do you Wilbur. (Or more likely, you're not willing to
admit it.) - It's obvious that you were aiming at me, but you missed.
Instead, you shot yourself in the foot.


I'm just a sailor who likes to
talk about sailing. And motoring around in a Mac26 is a far cry from
sailing.


Sure thing, Wilbur. - Just another devoted sailor who likes to talk
about sailing. (Plus Al Gore, fat people (human swine, according to
you), daylight savings time, anyone who questions Bush's judgement, dumb
illiterates who live in DC, all Dems, etc., etc.


So, get off the group you big dope!


Not a chance. - But maybe you should consider leaving, or at least
leaving behind your "Wilbur" mis-identification.

My point is that, in view of the "great times" you had on your Mac, you
should acknowledge that a Mac can be great fun. - (I never see anything
like that in any of your notes to or about me, which makes your notes
highly misrepresentative and misleading.)

As I have said many times, I'm only attempting to bring a semblance of
balance to discussion of the Macs that seem to delight a small vocal
minority on this ng. I'm not saying that the Macs don't have limitations.

OK. I answered in a rational, reasonable manner. Big mistake, right?. -
Bash away Scotty.

Scotti Potti has about as much chance of getting his boat out sailing
this weekend as you have of getting your Mac 26 off its trailer without
getting a few more stress cracks in the deck. Do you park it in the back
yards and let the kids use it for a trampoline?
