So long as you don't boat anywhere near the Persian Gulf why not???:-) K Been busy today so I'll keep the Krause lie of the day short. This lying simpleton, after it became clear he was losing a thread where he was displaying his usual lack of patriotism much less gratitude for the brave men & women out there risking their everything, to keep the likes of him safe, he just reverts to type. But seriously can you imagine this uneducated union thug now claims he is reviewing universities!!! & wait for it he poo poos the engineering course!!! this from a lying uneducated union thug who couldn't use a toaster without a union authorised electrician in attendance. I've included just one of the followup responses but it was such a bald faced lie it even embarrassed the rejoinders:-) I have visited West Point, the Naval Academy, the Air Force Academy and the sub training facility at Groton. Some years ago, I actually did look over descriptions of some of the course material at Annapolis and the c.v.'s of some of the faculty. I'm sure the engineering course material is fairly rigorous, though it is more "trade-oriented" and did not look up to MIT or CalTech standards. I mean, if your goal is to be an aeronautical engineer, you're going to get better training at MIT or CalTech or at any of a large number of other engineering schools. I thought the faculty academic credentials no better than what is found at a typical smaller four year public university. The military academies turn out military officers with an education, not highly educated military officers. But that is their purpose, eh? -- Holy molly, grandma, put on your high boots. Harry Krause, admitted graduate in the humanities with a degree in English is hereby qualified to critique the engineering curriculum of not only West Point, but also that of the Naval Academy and the Air Force Academy and compare it to that of MIT and CalTech. The above paragraph is a classic. You missed your calling Harry. |
That could be a serious mistake.
Your boat might then refuse to follow the established protocols for meeting and passing situations with other vessels at sea. There is no doubt that it would display improper and/or confusing signals. Naming your boat George W. Bush might inspire you to begin peering through the portlights of your neighbors in the marina to make sure all romantic encounters were between one man and one woman, (missionary style only, of course) as well as to monitor everybody's activities to make sure that nothing "evil" could be afoot. Most of your crew would jump ship at the conclusion of any leg of your voyage, but there's no doubt that the uninformed dock walkers would be impressed with the howitzer on your flybridge and some would think you looked "nautical" in that admiral's cap with far too much "scrambled egg" on the visor. Lastly, you could expect your expenses to skyrocket out of control. A routine visit to the Marine Supply Store would require yet another 30-year mortgage on your home. Sadly enough, despite spending at record levels, you would discover that so much of your wealth was diverted to the profits taken by your so-called "friends" at the chandlery that the vessel George W. Bush would still lack some of the most basic essentials for a safe and trouble free voyage. There would be one advantage. When you pulled up to the fuel dock, you could simply raid the office, shoot the attendant, and take as much as you wanted. (Thereby making your financial future, if not your vessel, more secure). |

Every time he took the family and the boat to the launch ramp, the engine wouldn't start. When asked why it was named the "Nixon", my nephew, about 10 at the time, said, "Because they both let down the American people." |
