So where did you go on your latest cruise? Any pictures?

Your statement is yet further proof of which I so wisely speak.

People who "tally" their cruises and who spend as much time
documenting their lame exploits by taking photos and creating
web pages and photo albums and uploading it all to make the
whole world aware of their greatness are living proof that it's
not the journey but the brag that counts the most to them.

Um, grow up, children!

And people who never cruise seem to spend much time throwing dust in
the air to obscure their shortcomings.

(the worst kind of fool; he doesn't realize that he is a fool.)

Says the pussy whipped bloke who failed to make it all the way around because
he succumbed to his wife's nagging and who is now stuck living in a backwater
country permanently attached to a dock with only his past memories of being on
the water. Yah, Bruce you sure do have lots of credibility!

I don't need credibility, I'm here and you are there, still sitting in
the bay. So, who's the sailor? Certainly not the armchair bound
Willie-boy.

You could, you know. Just pull up the anchor and go, smaller boats
then the Yellow Anchor Buoy have done a circumnavigation. I even gave
you references to the site of a Hungarian bloke who did it in a canoe
sized boat, so, it is evident that lack of equipment is not the
reason.

So, what's left? Fear, sheer terror at sailing off into the sunset? So
much more comfy to just sit there reading the boating magazine.
