To shed some light on why I, Capt. Neal, retired early and went
cruising, let me say it was simply because I figured that which I
knew and that which I aspired to was well-beyond the capability of
all but a few like me who actually enjoyed being highly educated
and loved using a superior brain to ruminate on the sad condition
of the remainder of humanity.



Peggy...this is very hard to resist..... ;-)

There are but two possibilities:

1) In "real life" Neal is an absolute coward, terrified of others and
therefore keeps his foul mouth shut.

2) In "real life" Neal gets punched in his foul mouth on a regular
(perhaps daily) basis.
