Harry,
Unlike you, I have not lied and made up any stories. My word is worth
considerable more than yours.

Taking the boat you don't own out on Lake Lanier this weekend?


Makin' up any fishin' stories this weekend?



Real Name, aka Smithers, doesn't have a boat.



I should take the word of an asshole who has 50 different handles here,
and has never offered up the slightest evidence of boat ownership?

John,
Can you imagine not being able to find a pair of pliers, and making a
post
in rec.boats. Seems like another excuse to make up a story about what
wonderful toys Harry owns. ; )

You spend more on repairing your boat in a year than I spend on fishing

If I spend $1000/year on repairs, for how many years can I repair my boat

Wow, now you are getting attacked by Krause for repairing your boat?

If the boat never makes it in the water, you won't have to spend a lot on
maintenance and repairs.

Silly posit, Herring. Your boat spends most of its life on a rack at a
boatel.

If you are claiming you use your boat more than I use my Parker, that
may be true. I have other boats, and a canoe I like to paddle out on the
Shenandoah. Or at least half-interest in a canoe.

Also, the way we use our boats is different. You mostly hang around
Herring Bay and drag baits, and I like to get out and see and enjoy new
places, or visit old places I like. Many times, the only fishing rod
aboard is a five footer I keep stashed in the cabin for "emergencies."


You are the 'perfect person', Harry. No one denies that!

Harry,
I am not boating this weekend. Too crazy and too choppy.

I am curious, what is your fascination with Lanier?

Indeed. You don't own a boat.


We're not talking about your bathtub toys, Smithers.

Harry,
While many of us spend days and weeks boating, and don't read of post in
rec.boats during that time, you are never away from your keyboard more than
a few hours. How can you possibly spend any time boating. A few years ago
someone set up a macro to track the time you were making post, and it showed
that you never had any time to go boating.

That is the reason you now don't allow your posts to be archived. You
looked too foolish when you did.

So now, besides the 25 foot fishing boat it is other *boats* and a canoe he
owns.. I thought the claim of the custom made 36 foot lobster boat was
enough, but he is claiming he owns more than that.

Amazing. With the amount of time he spends posting here you have to wonder
if he ever uses his personal fleet of boats.

The word of someone who posts here with about 50 different identities is
worth about the same as a box of used kitty litter.

You hardly ever post anything here other than insults aimed at those you
don't like, so your "word" is not relevant to anything anyway.


Wow, Harry just described himself to a "T".
