Damn ( smacking my head with the palm of my hand), I thought the video was about promoting those cheap, Chinese made, Greek fishermans hat knockoffs. |

There isn't an ounce of dialogue, but as an old guy reviews the happiest and most significant moments in his life it's interesting how boats, boating, and seamanship were instrumental throughout. Passing down the hat was particularly touching. The video was produced by a boat trade association. If boats and boating weren't "instrumental" in it, the trade group wouldn't have paid for it. Ummm.... if you look at rec.boat's original charter, I think you'll find the PURPOSE of this newsgroup is "to promote boating..." Looks to me like the video is indeed "Absolutely on topic".

(BTW: great video, Chuck!) druid http://www.bcboatnet.org I liked Chuck's video, however I'd like to see the "original charter" of rec.boats that you referenced. I think you will find that rec.boats does not have a charter. Eisboch |

Our youngest still loves to invite her friends up for a day on the lake. This reminds me - About four years ago when my Paw was dieing of cancer we got out the old 8mm silent movie projector he had from the 50's. It was color which was pretty hi-teck for it's day. Well we watched lots of those old reels. most of them followed us growing up going to different lakes around Missouri. His little stailess steel fishing boat. The old 7.5 Evinrude and our first speed boat, a 1970 trihull made by a company called Beachcraft. It had a 165 merc. Man he was proud of that boat. Thanks for bringing that memory back.

Gould?- Hide quoted text - - Show quoted text - If you followed your own advice, you'd post about twice a year. Here's the funny part....... I never mentioned your name at all. If you feel that you were being singled out, it could only be as a result of you self-identifying with the behavior described. Is that the case? Sort of like somebody taking a whiff and saying "Somebody farted!". Everybody looks around the room a bit puzzled, except one guy who stands up angry as hell and says, "You've done worse!" :-) Did you watch the video, Harry? It might bring back a few memories of days of yore. |

You're so overflowing with netcop syndrome, you don't even see you've become the poster boy of what you don't want. |
