So long as you don't boat anywhere near the Persian Gulf why not???:-)

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?

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).

Go for it! Hell, there's boats named after Reagan (at least one that I
know of).

Go for it!

My brother had a boat he named "President Nixon". 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."

I thought about naming my boat Bill Clinton, but I take my friends on
that boat and I didn't want people going down on it.


Harry Kruase February 4th 05 11:49 AM

I was gonna call one of my yachts the "Bull Shooter" but looking at the
faces of all the buffalo I have, really changed my mind.

So I called one of mine "The Benedict" and one "The Coward" and one
Toothless.

Of course I started the name "Aquaholic" but some suggest that my biggest
boat is more reflective of its captain "Knot all here".

Dan, For your future reference and to split hairs, to name your boat
"GEORGE W. BUSH" would be to name your boat "after" him. To name your
boat "like" him, you would have to go with something like "INCOMPETENT
DWEEB" or "SMIRKIN' TURD".

Yup

I named a few of my boats after George W Bush,, As a matter of fact,, I
named my wife the same,, it adds some intelligence to our sheets,, as you
see,, she is 20 years my junior and well,,, those pimples and braces sure
are cute but dam,, try having a conversation with them.

So I call her GWB and we get along fine,, actually it was her idea.

But she is about the same size as a boat anyway,, like my 36 footer parker,
her aft cabin has enough room to drive my 4x4 in,, turn it around and drive
it back out,,, without slipping it into limited slip positions.

Yup,,, I think it is time to take a trip up to my buddy at the local upscale
liquor store,, get my bottles of my favorites for the day. Yup that is what
I am gonna do.

That Parker is only a 25'er.

You cant bait me troll. Im too smart for that.


Harry Kruase February 6th 05 01:43 PM


Yup

The only way to bait me is to put one of those red and white pills my little
darling keeps at the back of the tray,,, yup,, I call them the Red Devils,,
and they are just a wonderful pill,, when I take one of them,,,
wwwwwooooooo,,, over the hills ,,, over the fields of blueberries,, and over
all the deer and the buffalo roaming,,, whappa I land right at the upscale
liquor store where my buddy works who orders in the good stuff,, my favorite
brand of alcohol,, but don't tell the little darling,, this alcohol stains
my dentures and she has to scrub them and cannot understand ,,, but that is
ok,,,

Yup,,

I owned the bait store one time,, yup,, I owned a chain of them,, yup,, I
owned so many bait stores they called me master,,, and people thought my
last name was baits,, yup,,, that is why they call me the master,,, but that
was a real problem I had,, especially up there at the local video store
rental place with my pocket full of quarters and cream,, yup,,, the little
darling couldn't understand the trench coats in mid august but ,, those
pimples and braces will learn soon enough,,, yup,,,


Oooooo yaaaaa,, here comes that squeaky wheel tray now,, yeeeehaaaaa

back to lala land I go,,,
