I said "many". "Many" doesn't mean "all".

After hearing the implication that I am an uneducated moron often
enough, I do tend to lash out. That is particularly true when it is
coming from someone who is living on the margins of success.
Somehow hearing a guy in his 70s saying he enjoys standing in the rain
waiting for a bus is rewarding, defies logic.


Yeah, my comment wasn't intended to be derogatory of you. I have a lot
of respect for what you've accomplished in your life. I was just
trying to avoid a Harry trap.




Who is standing in the rain waiting for a bus?

I suppose it never rains in DC. It certainly did when I was there ...
standing in the rain waiting for the bus.


Oh. Well, the commuter buses pretty much are on schedule and frequent.
One of my downtown clients is on K Street and another is on L Street.
The K Street client is on the corner opposite the bus stop, and the L
Street client is a block and a street away. If it is pouring, I simply
wait in the lobby of the K Street client's office building until I see
the bus coming.

And, of course, we're allowed umbrellas and raincoats up here.

The work I get to do, I suspect, is a bit more exciting and mind
challenging than hanging around in Estrogen, Florida, clearing lots and
rebuilding pool bars.

Harry must admire suicide bombers.




You are living proof that one cannot overstate the amount of ignorance
and stupidity in rec.boats. History is full of martyrs who died for a
cause and some of those deaths resulted in real, positive change for
mankind.


So you love those suicide martyrs.


You really are ignorant and stupid, aren't you?


Just extrapolating from your statements.

Helping your country prop up a series of brutal dictatorships,

on fire to protest Christian brutality, is not an example of
appropriate

education is not "ducking" the draft so long as one is registered. It's
too bad you didn't avail yourself of a formal higher education...you
might have learned some critical thinking skills.

I met and dealt with hundreds if not thousands of people during my
working career. They typically ranged from entry level tradespeople to
scientists and/or management personal with multiple Phd's. I don't
think I ever met anyone as narrow and shallow minded as you present
yourself here Harry. "Critical thinking" is not your forte, as
evidenced by your comments to any discussion here.

Millions of people in the world, including many posters to rec.boats,
have or had highly successful careers, accomplishments and made
contributions to society without benefit of what you regard as a "formal
higher education". Based on what I have deduced from your contributions
here, many are far more educated in meaningful ways than the high regard
you hold for yourself.

The only people I've met who think and sound like you are those who
chose (or were forced) to remain in academia for all their working
years. Yes, they have an abundance of knowledge, but most of it useless
in the real world.



But no comment from you regarding the "Yeah, **** your country, duck

In at least a half dozen posts you've told us how we should have
gotten into at least a community
college to escape the draft.

What do *you* call that? To me, it's kinda chicken **** draft dodging.

Your wife calls that rationalization. If you can keep convincing

working today I am going for a boat ride.
