I can readily think of three right here who can't even spell the name

and Don, the Lil' Squirt.

But, I'm not wild about that version of the song. I don't think I'd
have picked that one, and I'm
wondering if I was spoofed then. Wish I could go back and look at the

Some of your posts do seem to be a bit out of character.
I looked at a few of your headers and I don't see any obvious differences.



Easy to spot the differences. It's someone with an eternal September
account.

BTW ... Mrs.E.'s father passed away last night. I had written him off
years ago after he gave up his boat following the heart attacks and
strokes. The "miracles" of modern medicine and monthly checks to the
nursing home kept him alive as a vegetable for several years. Still sad
to see him go. He was unique, but a good guy.

That sucks... I guess we were pretty lucky. Dad was up and around
hanging with Jess and the family at the track, and bingo.. etc... two
weeks before he passed. We send good wishes in this time of pain...

She's fine. She has been prepared for it for a long time. Her mother
is a different story though. Very old school, Italian culture.

We were up at 2am this morning talking about him. My wife and her
sister asked me to put together an obituary, so I spent some time doing
that. It's amazing that you can wrap up someone's 88 years of life on
this planet in about three or four sentences. Makes you realize how
insignificant we all are in the bigger scheme of things.

Appreciate the thoughts and well wishes. It's sad but not really
painful. His quality of life, whatever it was, sucked.

Hah! That will probably be my long lasting memory of him. Standing in
the engine compartment of the Uniflite with the hatch doors open, having
a "thinking stick" while he replaced the old fashioned, spring loaded
type voltage regulator with another, used, old fashioned, spring loaded
voltage regulator that he found in his junk drawer.

The funniest time he did that, he was all proud of himself because the
gauge in the cabin indicated the alternator was charging. It didn't for
long. I was standing in the cockpit and happened to look down at the
alternator. The whole body of it was glowing red hot.

Then there was the time he replaced the bronze washer in the Bennett
trim tab joystick with a stainless steel washer. He had me hanging over
the transom watching the trim tabs as he operated them up and down from
the cabin. All seemed fine until I looked into the cabin and saw smoke
pouring from behind the console. Stainless doesn't conduct electricity
well.

I suggested that for a few bucks we could go get a brand new,
replacement joystick up at Monahans' Marine. As you recall, he didn't
believe in spending bucks. Instead, after I explained it had to be
bronze or copper to carry the current he drilled a hole in a penny,
filed the edges to fit and installed that. It worked fine for the rest
of the time he had the boat.
