You mean classical music? When was the last time you saw James Galway?
When was the last time you went to a private concert at a
conservatory?

Painting? When was the last time a curator invited you into the
museum's storage area to see & discuss master works not on public
display? When was the last time this happened to you in a Paris
museum?

Literature? What do you consider "classic literature"? Tell us the
last 3 books you read, Bubbles.

I don't know or care anything about photography or "film" (movies,
right?). Sitting around being entertained is not a priority for me.

... The fact that my wife
didn't force me to buy a powerboat is simply the last straw for you,

You mean my wife, who is one of the best spinnaker crews in our area?.

.... I'm going sailing this afternoon after I install a new main
(which I sold) on a Hunter 43.

Wow! You know how to "install" new sails!!

Have fun powering around!


We're having lots of fun, thanks. It's been a great cruise so far.
You?
