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 in the USA dumb enough to own a MacGregor).



oh, don't be so hard on yourself, I'm sure there's one or
two more out there.



As for my legal practice, although I'm technically

retarded, I have all
the work I can handle, thank you.



Good for you.

You're welcome. Oh, and I didn't have to sell my Mac, I
wanted to.

At the time, maybe. - But I've seen several notes you posted since then
that suggest you had some good times on your Mack.

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?

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.
