Skip's Angst
"Wilbur Hubbard" wrote in message anews.com... I think if I were a tired old man who attempted things greater than his paltry ability to succeed, I would be down in the mouth, too. It would grate on me knowing I had attempted a circumnavigation but only had enough of the "right stuff" to get less than half the way 'round. I had bit off more than I could chew. Boat was too big and complicated. I couldn't keep up with the maintenance. Expenses got out of hand. Even worse is being stuck in some backwater with no future while the trip grinds to a halt and contemplating dying of old age among the heathens there while slumming it aboard some decrepit old motorboat tied to a dock within sight of the sailboat in which I failed to realize my dreams. A third world boat person. Look over there at your erstwhile vessel and what do you see? Failure and shame, dreams not realized. inability to finish what you started, defeat, the end of the road. If you call some tired old motorboat "back afloat?" But I guess it suits you. Tired old defeated boat for a tired, defeated old geezer snip.. Wilbur Hubbard Good Lord...you've described Capt Neal to a 'T'! You must be well aquainted with him, in those mosquito infested backwaters he frequents. |

Impossible, Kneel lost his gonads years ago; seems lack of use cause such hypertrophy that they fell off! Cheers Marty I didn't say they were still attached to anything! What is this? A bunch of gay boys salivating over objects of their desire? Wilbur Hubbard |
