Either way, I say, keep up the good work. It's nice to be able to post with out etc and Secular Humorist jumping all over it. You see, neither of them think my boat is enough of a boat to qualify as a boat;) It's a damn good Brockway Skiff though. :-) http://www.google.com/images?hl=en&q=brockway+skiff and I know where the originals were built: http://www.mapquest.com/maps?city=Br...nding&state=CT |

Could have been worse...with your wife sitting in the boat you just launched, with a dead battery and the drain plug in your pocket, and you're standing on the ramp watching the boat...sink. |

Tell you what...beginning today, why don't you keep track of how many times I mention or refer to you and your "us'ns" and how many times you and your "us'ns" mention or refer to me. The latter, of course, would include all posts in which my handle or name or names of my family members are abused. Can you "man up" for that? The clock is now...ticking. It doesn't look like you are ignoring anyone. Shame Shame Shame. I can't, my narcissism won't allow me to ignore anyone. Here's the flaming asshole doing what he can't help but do. |

It takes two or more to tango. If everyone stopped with the snarlyness (is that a word?), this might be a much better place. Can't be done.

Whomever the spoofer is that you're responding to, has made it his vocation to be a flaming asshole. *The content or context of Harry and Don's postings have nothing to do with whether he responds or posts stupid insults.

Ahhh, you see humor where I do;) I think I am gonna' like you :O If it is stupid on a boat, I've done it and I am proud of it. Many boats ago, I put the nozzle from a gas pump down the fishing rod holder and pumped a few gallons into the bilge. Go ahead, top that. Bet you can't. |
