OK you bald, bad tempered b*st*rds, speak up!
Well, day-um!!!!!! ;-)
First off, I'm not bald (but slowly going gray at 42). Bad temper? Hmmm... on occasion, yes, okay, you got me there. I finally stood up and spoke out at work a few days ago with "Can we all make up our freakin' minds?!?!" and got up from my desk, and went outside to cool off. (I'm a computer programmer overseeing 3 corporate plant offices Unix servers and databases). The engineering manager wanted a database query program like this... The production manager wanted it like that... The other plants managers wanted it like this. I got frustrated acting like a ping pong ball bouncing around between corporate plant offices. Aaaaargh! Oh, and about the B*st*rd... Uh, no. My parents were married when I was born, and have been happily married for 57 years. Butch Ammon P.S. Hopefully people will speak up and support the thought of restoring rec.boats back to what it once was. |

Something has to be done. I'm not convinced a different newsgroup would do
the trick though. They wouldn't get enough attention over there and wander back anyway. "noah" wrote in message ... Please, at your convenience, refer to the rec.boats FAQ post. Many thanks, noah |

There's no "perfect world" Dave, but I think a good compromise could be effected if enough people care. I thank you for your post. To me (and I admit going to the Nudie Bar tonight, and getting quite drun..., er dizzy), the political postings are important. EXCEPT, that some of the posters don't have the balls to identify themselves. What is the point in having an opinion if you have no name? (Just an opinion you old, bald b*st*rds). My name is NOAH!!! Or not, but you know where to reach me! Anyway, if you wern't at the Nudie Bar, I hope you saw the pictures. I'm not trying to exclude anyone from rec.boats. Some of the most politically minded posters are also the most knowledgeable and experienced at boating. I am *asking* for their support to create a lounge group (bar, dockside, fantail, I don't care). rec.boats.nudie_bar might be good!? noah |

Noah,
You will find many people who might agree with you, but the vast majority of the regulars want rec.boats to be a blood bath free for all. They are not interested in have a separate forum to discuss OT discussions. Have you ever seen an on topic post remain on topic without someone hijacking the thread into a political name calling thread. Have you noticed that none of them have disagreed with me. Unfortunately, what you see is what they want. "noah" wrote in message ... Please, at your convenience, refer to the rec.boats FAQ post. Many thanks, noah |

Someone will start screeching about that insensitive program from the dark ages of the pre-enlightened era that made us chuckle at human foibles, rural southern life, and non-macho males; supported the status-quo of keeping women in the kitchen or the library; fed us an endless stream of simplistic platitudes based on nothing more than ethical values and simple patriotism, and glorified the mistreatment of children by making them adhere to standards. How could we have survived such fare? JG Ah, yes...extolling the virtues of the stupid and simple-minded...sort of prepared the country for Dubya, eh? -- * * * email sent to will *never* get to me. |
