Oops. I have him killfiled so I did not see. Sorry.

Commodore Joe Redcloud also responded with the correct answer. I'd
suggest you are the wrong person to start such a game. Perhaps a
brighter light should conduct the next challenge.

Skipper,
This is definitely inflammatory.

No, it is factual. Don't know if you are aware that I was the originator
of the Nautical Jeopardy game back in 1997. I've always known that when
the game is initiated by folks like Jim it could be used to insult as he
did. The initiator of a Nautical Jeopardy game should have the game open
to all and not use it to flame as he did.

That said, I agree it is his right to killfile my posts as I did
identify him as one of the worst offenders driving this NG into the
toilet...but NOT during these challenges.

Skipper,
This is definitely inflammatory and has potential to start a new round of
flames. If you really are interested in a boating group you need to
ignore or kill file those you want to flame.

What else is new? All he has done since he came back has been to lie about
folks and flame them.

The nurses at the home need to up his meds and remove the stick he has up
his ass.

Too bad the Calypso was left to die. I was aboard her in the mid 1980's
when she was in Miami for a refit following, I believe, a return from
Cuba. The Engineer was kind enough to allow me and my friend to have
access to every part of the ship except Cousteau's cabin (except to look
in through the window). The ship was surprisingly small, as it always
looked so much larger on TV to me as a kid.

The highlight of our excursion was, at least for me, going down into the
original mini-sub and getting a feel for what it must have been like to
use it. That thing is just downright scary to be inside, as it is just
basically an empty shell filled with tubes, tanks, wires, and a flat
board to lie on to steer while looking through a very small, thick,
round piece of glass. Very, very rudimentary.

I took a bunch of pics inside and out, and if I ever find any of that
stuff I'll post them if there's a way to transfer them to digital.

Here are some pictures of her in an obvious state of abandonment.

Jeeesh nothing. The guy has done nothing but cause trouble since he came
back and managed to flame just about everyone in the group. The stroke must
have done permanent damage to whatever brain cells he had left.




JimH,
I thought you were going to ignore those who are trolling for an argument?

Sorry, but I got tired of reading his insults, not only towards me but to
other members here.

He spent his first month here telling lies about Chuck. He then continued
to flame not only Chuck but others, including the likes of JohnH.

It is good that you see his only purpose in posting
here................trolling for arguments. He has nothing to offer boating
wise, in fact I cannot remember one post from him about boats other than
regurgitating the old garbage he wrote here a dozen or so years ago.

I am done the ass and will not sink to his level anymore.
