Such an ignominous thing for such a noble craft that I intended to be

I gave in and we went back out of gator paradise to more open water for
them to play.
Still, it was day on the water.


At least it sees water...think of Snotties poor rowboat.
It sits there year after year, rotting away and only used by a family
of critters as shelter.

Hi Swill......yes, you might call it 'the culture' of this newsgroup.
-------------------------------------------------
Nope, I just call it head up your ass stupidity by you.


Well, that's just the kind of attitude we need to improve the
newsgroup.
Were you always a jackass, Swill?

I'd like to think you could do better, but.............

Show where I am holding the newsgroup back. Compare me to your postings.
As to smart, I have a lot higher IQ, probably a better university education,
at least a better discipline of study, and have been much more financially
successful. All these show me to have a lot smarter brain than you.
