Why didn't they lighten the boat up?

What were all those people doing loading up the boat
with more weight on deck? Stupid fools! There must
have been a dozen of them. Probably at least a ton of
excess weight on the boat--right there. That would drop
the waterline more than an inch.

If they offloaded everything on the boat, and waited for
a spring tide, they might have been able to save it.


It was a useless, ugly motorsailer. No use saving it since it wasn't a
real sailboat. . . Sinking it was the best solution. Why have it
sitting there spoiling the view?

well it all worked out for the best. The wall came down and a country
was re-united..Freedom for the masses in a divided Germany..

Winning the cold war may seem trivial to you..I see it as a great
accomplishment.

Reagan had a moderate amount to do with it, and I give him credit for it.
However, he was far from perfect. He made many mistakes, perhaps due to
mental deficiencies, but he was a decent guy and not a fool.

Guess they never heard of camels either.
