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?

I like it when I aggravate you until you get strident pats own back.
It shows my superiority. Bwaaahahahahahahahaha! It's good to see
I've got you thinking about your embarrassing choice of a boat.

Slapping yourself on the back again Wilbur? Yawn......

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!

.....Anyone doubt that Wilbur's pitiful trolling attempt backfired on him?

Jim

Jim, hate to tell you this but this post is a response to him...please
remove the hook from your mouth before you get yanked into his boat...

Once more. Does anyone doubt that Wilbur (or whoever he is) ended up
with responses he didn't anticipate, when his trolling didn't get the
response he was looking for, and when he ended up having to answer a
number of indignant responses from others participating in the discussion.

You'll never make a decent troll. You don't have a clue about what
motivates a troll. The type of response matters little. As a matter of
fact, the more indignant the response the better. Trolls are puppet
masters. Not, that I claim to be one. I'm just a sailor who likes to
talk about sailing. And motoring around in a Mac26 is a far cry from
sailing. So, get off the group you big dope!

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

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


We had some *great* times on the old Mac.

What's your point?

I have no interest in becoming a troll, if that's what you mean.

You don't get it, do you Wilbur. (Or more likely, you're not willing to
admit it.) - It's obvious that you were aiming at me, but you missed.
Instead, you shot yourself in the foot.

talk about sailing. And motoring around in a Mac26 is a far cry from
sailing.

Sure thing, Wilbur. - Just another devoted sailor who likes to talk
about sailing. (Plus Al Gore, fat people (human swine, according to
you), daylight savings time, anyone who questions Bush's judgement, dumb
illiterates who live in DC, all Dems, etc., etc.


So, get off the group you big dope!


Not a chance. - But maybe you should consider leaving, or at least
leaving behind your "Wilbur" mis-identification.

My point is that, in view of the "great times" you had on your Mac, you
should acknowledge that a Mac can be great fun. - (I never see anything
like that in any of your notes to or about me, which makes your notes
highly misrepresentative and misleading.)

As I have said many times, I'm only attempting to bring a semblance of
balance to discussion of the Macs that seem to delight a small vocal
minority on this ng. I'm not saying that the Macs don't have limitations.

OK. I answered in a rational, reasonable manner. Big mistake, right?. -
Bash away Scotty.
