You're just noticing that now?
Who said you were a bit slow?


Smithers wants sooooo badly for me to give him a tumble, he can almost
taste it. He spends most of his time in rec.boats writing questions to
me that will never be answered, and comments about me that he thinks
will upset me in some way.

If there is a clinical variant of "obsessed asshole," Smithers is its name.

Skipper, of course, is in a different category. He's sort of outrageous
like NOYB (though not nearly as clever), and as boring in his dogma as
that "other" Dave Hall that used to visit here.

One can imagine Skippy encountering a burglar in his house and telling
the guy to wait while he finds his pistol and flicks on the laser light,
only to find out the wal-mart batteries he bought have corroded it out.

Mr. Bayliner...the great offshore boater, plying the deep, dangerous,
and dark waters of...Kansas.

Harry, your (*not* the universal 'your') NPD is in full blossom.

JohnH,
Oh I wish Harry would "tumble" with me. ; )

I really don't know what "tumble" means, but it sounds sexual. Ewwwww, I
think I just had a little vomit come up. The funny thing, I think Harry
believes what he says. He thinks by not responding directly to my posts,
and only responding 2nd hand or with one of his "Macros", that he is
punishing me.

Our youngest daughter will be turning 16 in Jan. My wife wants to give her a
GPS unit for the car. My wife's logic is she would be a safer driver, if she
didn't knew where she was going, and was not looking for street names and
addresses.

It seems to me that another electronic toy in the car is just another thing to
distract her from watching the road.

Does anyone have any experience with GPS and teenagers?

and

Most importantly, does anyone have any experience buying a handheld unit that
has both maps for city driving and nautical charts?

As the father of 3 twenty-something daughters I think it would have been
interesting to review the breadcrumb trail after some of their outings.

-rick-

Yeah, I sure was. I started driving at 13, Had 16 tickets by the time I
was 17. Was on a first-name basis with the two local fuzz that kept
busting me (Kunkel and Deloren-good title for a shoot-em-up cop
show...). I was, and am an exceptionally competent driver, just lacked
self restraint and maturity back then. In those times, no cell phones,
gps, dvd players, sub woofers or"1000 watt" sound systems. Just 100
octane gas, square turns and smoking rear tires.
I have an abundance of faith in our youth. But ADHP disorder and
electronic distractions have no place in a drivers mind, and
unfortunatly our current crop of youth suffer in overwhelming numbers
from both.

we can get the hell out of the way.

JR,

You seem to have an absence of faith in our youth. Say it ain't so. I'll
bet you were young once.

Harry has one thing going for him. He stays around during the weekends and provides entertainment,
whereas Kevin doesn't.

JR,
NP, my wife wanted our daughter to learn how to drink coffee while
applying makeup and chatting on the phone all at the same time. I
thought the GPS unit was over the top, but as long as she has a nice
quiet neighborhood to practice in, it probably will be ok.



You forgot to teach her how to eat the Carls Jr. double cheeseburger
without getting food on her clothes!

I read that people were putting DVD players in the front console of
their car. That will be the next problem...best stay off the streets
when the 'soaps' are on.

You can watch "soaps" on a DVD? Is that what you do between posts?

TV, DVD, etc. are illegal if visible by the driver in many states, if
not all, but you already knew that, right?

I'm glad you have faith in our youth. I've been coaching teens and
pre-teens for about 8 years and whenever I start to think we're all going to
hell I just have to think about the kids I coach and have coached to realize
there are a lot of great kids out there!

The media on the other hand makes it seem like soddom and gomorrah are upon
us.

The illegality of something does not mean it's not happening.
