I wasn't commenting on what you write about. I was commenting on your manner
of expressing yourself.

Like Nealbur Bob is bitter and it shows clearly everytime he speaks.

Hatred is the coward's revenge for being intimidated.

Don't blame "Fred." He's bitter because he a Texan now forced to live in
Connecticut. Seems that when he prematurely abandoned his boat in the Gulf
she foundered and was sunk. Her whereabouts forever unknown. By not she's a
rusty red cloud as portended by one with foresight - Barnacle Bill the
sailor.

But, the good news is McDonald's recognized the poor man's plight and
offered him a job in management instead of what he used to do, slaving over
the deep fryer at minimum wage. He's training to be in charge of the coffee
makers. He's got experience in that field. Turns out his erstwhile vessel is
still making coffee as we speak. It's slowly leaching out of the rusting
hulk of a hull in a couple of thousand feet of water.

So unfortunate by virtue of the fact that it was totally avoidable given
informed, stern and manly seamanship in lieu of "cut and run". (Strange how
an individual's firm rejection of cut and run in Iraq did not seem to extend
to his personal life.) I shall miss the posts and pictures about sailing
from a young fellow who seemed to have some potential to be a blue water
sailor but failed to live up to that potential. It brings a tear to my eye.
I don't often misjudge folks' abilities to succeed at sea.
