No Bruce,
It's just the thoughts of all those beautiful Thai maidens.

Coupled with the uncontrollable drooling and dribbling it can be quite
embarrassing.

Hey, we got some of them, you can have up to four of. No problem, just
be sure that you provide for them all equally, in all senses of the
word. (Which may make your hands shake even more).

Yeah, sure.

I am both sadly and yet gratefully coming to the end of a 33 year
marriage to only one woman.

As for Moslems being able to have four wives, I would mind you of one
of my favourite Englishman's comments

"The definition of bigamy is having one wife too many;
- monogamy is the same thing" - Oscar Wilde.

Besides, religions aside, many of the Americans I have met whilst
cruising are well on their way to having four wives, perhaps not more
than one at a time but a considerable number of the cruising couples I
have met are into their second or third marriages. I even met one man
who had remarried his first wife after two in between. I am aways
amused when i hear couples talk of "xxx's daughter came to stay"

No, I am seriously considering 'hieing me to a monastery" or going gay
without the sex. A lot of men I know are simply so easy to get along
with. But.... there are a lot of gorgeous Thai women. Come to think
of it, there are a lot of attractive women. My problem is that I am
looking for the perfect woman. I found one once but she wasn't
remotely interested in me. She was looking for the perfect man.

No. I think I'll just stick with my six beautiful kids. There are no
conditions and expiry date to a child's love and I have learned the
hard way the truth of my Malay friend's advice that "pretty women are
high maintenance".

Look after yourself and be careful of the seditious "un-American"
statements you have been making of late. They don't allow visitors at
Guantanamo Bay and there are no lovely Thai women.

Huh? Greek coffee is seditious? God only knows, but it may be in this
day and age.

By the way, there is a bloke down the dock that seems to have sorted
out his marital arrangements. He owns a generic medicine factory in
Russia and is married to a Russian woman. Charley is in his early
sixties and has decided to turn the factory over to his younger wife
to manage. So Charley cruises the world on his 45 ft. Amel and his
wife stays home and runs the business and sends Charley money. She
visits wherever Charley happens to be on her annual vacation and they
seem to get along wonderfully well.

It looks like a great idea, but as they say, "The devil is in the
details", and I haven't gotten those worked out yet.

Charley's wife stays home? Ya ,, sure. She waits for
Charley's call ..

The answer is that group in Texas. Guy can have twenty wives if he wants.
Surely, out of twenty there is at least one sailor.

Charley didn;t relay all the details (remember I told you where the
devils are) but from what I observe Charley is a stand up guy and as
he seems to have no aversion to himself having a little friend perhaps
he doesn't deny the satisfaction to his wife ... the money is still
coming in.

An old sailor song .. from days of yor .. or is that whore .. whatever..


You wanna be happy for the rest of your life,
Never make a pretty woman your wife,
From my personal point of view, get an ugly girl to marry you.

If you wanna be happy for the rest of your life,
Never make a pretty woman your wife, no,
From my personal point of view, get an ugly girl to marry you.


A pretty woman makes her husband look small
And very often causes his downfall.

When out sailing a boat, an ugly woman will
keep you afloast;
The pretty ones are good in bed, but they
can't set sails, and they will get you dead.

An ugly woman cooks meals on time,
She'll always give you peace of mind.
She can raise the sails, dump the pales,
and she don't care if the head smells like snails.

From my personal point of view, get an ugly girl to marry you.
If you wanna be happy for the rest of your life,
Never make a pretty woman your wife,
From my personal point of view, get an ugly girl to marry you.
If you wanna be happy for the rest of your life,

I think that character actually means something more like
"dis-harmony". Trouble with the wife; not trouble with the car.
