John,
I think you have this all wrong, if he felt comfortable with who he was, he
would not have to seek attention by making up stories about his Hatteras,
his Lobster Boat, and his wife a MD and a PHD. If she ever finds out that
he is making up these stories, her feelings will be hurt, that her husband
is so ashamed of her, that he has to make her a Doctor, Doctor just to feel
good about himself.

Harry, it sounds like you have a bad case of "fishing envy". If you
are
nice to John he might allow you on his boat, if not there are lots of
fishing charters on the Bay.




I especially enjoy reading about your striper catches, John, when
I
think about the article on rockfish that ran in last Thursday's
Annapolis paper. I'll bet you don't wear rubber gloves when you
handle
and clean those fish, and I'll bet you eat those fish, too.

See ya!



John, my boat just isn't big enough for Harry and me. And, I think
you're
correct about the "fishing envy." He's very negative about my catches,
but
implies that his, caught at the rips, are OK. Hmmm, makes me wonder if
he's ever
caught a rockfish.

You know the answer to that John. He does not own a boat and he can only
fish off others boats. His wife is not a doctor and he does not own a
custom 36 foot lobster boat.

He does have sock puppets though.


Sounds like you've got him pegged, Jim. It's actually pretty pitiful. I
wonder
if his wife (alleged), the good (alleged) doctor, doctor, couldn't help
him deal
with his seemingly ever-increasing demands for attention. I think he is
very
much in love with himself.
