I would say that's probably a very true statement. For the money that little boat I had was costing

- depreciation, insurance, maintenance, storage, etc., I can rent a boat for several weeks a year.

Having an extremely handy storage place, like your driveway, would tend to make boating a more

frequent activity.



The last time I sold a boat, I waited about 15 years before getting another. Who knows, maybe this

time it'll be only ten years. We're already planning a weeks vacation with the grandkids at Smith

Mountain Lake next July. I'll rent a pontoon boat for the week or maybe a ski boat.

Of course, if you're not using it, it's best to sell off a depreciating asset.


Talk about a guy who can't see the hand in front of his face. Your ever
so lightly used vehicle and seldom, if ever, used boat fall neatly into
that category. Sell em both. Take a cab. Rent a boat. Use the money you
save to fix up your house.

Several of the right-wing "frequent posters" here haven't owned a boat
for years.


Just like you, huh assgasket?

I agree but some of us actually use our boat.


Not the Halifaxonian, to whom my comment was directed.

Why do you persist in your "childlike finger pointing and name calling"

Donnie, how dense are you?
You've been told several times by several people to include some
reference as to what you are responding to.
Even your mentor Harry tried to clue you in. To no avail, I might add.

Don, you have to reference your posts. To whom are you responding and
what did he say?

What is incredible to me is that, of course, he's part of the right wing
faction he doesn't get admonished for his insults, name calling and
trolling. Let someone else do that stuff and see how quickly Herring or
Scotty start whining about it. See Scotty's remark about someone calling
Herring a racist? Why? Because Scotty knows HE is a racist, he's proven
that here, so he doesn't like that word tossed around.

From the post quotes I see second hand, I've noticed that FlaJim, Earl,
BAR, and one or two others persist in their "unsociable" behavior here.
I didn't really expect those boys to change their stripes...did you?

From your posts I see first hand, that you are implying that you have
changed your stripes and that you expect everyone to fall in lockstep
behind you.
It's not enough for you to talk the talk, you need to walk the walk. And
that you haven't done. So, you, Loogie, and Donnie can keep on jerking
each other off and we will give the appropriate response. OK with you,
Mr. big gun?
