TAKE THE POLITICS SOMEWHERE ELSE PLEASE
 
This forum is about boating. I suppose if there are boating-specific
issues, fine, but post these to alt.politics or somewhere, please.

That made my shoulders go up and down rapidly for 5 seconds. I think it
means you made a funny.

Do it again, I liked it.

Well, we could always start a good gun thread. Those used to cause quite a stir
here in rec.boats.

Do you carry while aboard?

Tis the season for political threads I guess. I have recently post a couple of
boating related threads here and they garnered a total of about 5 responses. I
posted an anti Kerry thread and it garnered nearly 200 responses. Oh well, such
is the life of this group.

The political talk is no different here than what we have on the docks or at
our boat Club. We talk about other things than just boating there so why not
here.

Post some boating threads they will get some responses even if minimal in
nature.

OK, here goes,

what do you call a blonde walking on her hands?

A brunette with bad breath.

Next:

Bush and Cheney sit down to breakfast.
The waitress comes over and asks them what they'd like to have, Cheney says
"I'll have an omelet."

Bush says,"I'd like a quickie."
The waitress turns red and storms off saying she's never be so insulted in her
life.

Bush gives Cheney a look that says "what hell did I do"

Cheney points at the menu and say' It's pronounced quiche"

As I noted in a previous post in this thread:

"Google up ...USENET... ...filters... it will be your only relief.

Sorry."

USENET is unmoderated and uncontrolled... your only options a

1) Be irritated by things you don't want to read.
2) Filter out objectionable material by manually ignoring it or by
automating filters
3) Never look at a USENET newsgroup again.

Expressing exasperation is what many, if not all, of these politicos
want to see. Calling them names only serves to encourage their
behavior.

If you ignore them with automatic filters, they don't go away, but
they certainly appear to. That is "my way."


My guess is John is like Sterling, addicted to OT posts and OT whinning.

They will never use filters or kill files no matter how many times you point
them out to them.

They're just like people who profess to hate Howard Stern or Rush Limbaugh, but
listen to them everyday.

how can I help you?

is it captain?

Florida Keyz August 25th 04 09:06 PM

bill, shame, what a potty mouth. Do you kiss your sister with that mouth?

Florida Keyz August 25th 04 09:07 PM

so bill, what kind of a captain are you, do you have the little white hat and
everything?

Florida Keyz August 25th 04 09:08 PM

Ok bill, I admit it, I really do enjoy rattling your cage, its fun and easy.

Seems a little odd to me. In all my adult life and all the boats I have
owned, all the time I have spent on the water tied up to more than a few
hundred boats at a time politics have NEVER come up. But then again, we
find watching grass grow more entertaining that talking about politics. WHO
CARES!!!!!

Lets see, at least six posts, five in 3 minutes, directed at me in one thread
in one day.

I think that's your own cage you hear rattling.


Capt. Bill

PS, as I have never "owned" a person in a newsgroup before I'm not sure what
the proper edict is?

Do I send you a signed 8 by 10 glossy of me?
Or do you send me one of you?

Oh, never mind. I'll just print out this one I already have of you and stop by
and have you sign it the next time I'm in the Keys.

You have an amazing grasp of the obvious there Sterling.
At least when it comes to someone else's OT postings.


Now about all those OT POLITICAL posts you claim I have STARTED.

778 new messages in rec.boats
119 after filters applied
20 maybe after I move past the crap the filters didn't catch
It's sad to see newsgroups ruined by people who have such little respect for
others.
