Jesus, Chuck. Hire an editor. Why dump so many paragraphs when a short
sentence will do. Oh, and of course, your post had nothing to do with
boating. But at least you didn't tuck in one of your many commercial
references.


Time for Chuck to take his annual self imposed vacation from rec.boats.


No need. I'm going to resume my vacation from specific, essentially
non-boating arseholes who hang out around here primarily to cause
trouble, call names, and start off-topic threads. If you run into
anybody like that, you'll notice that they aren't getting as much
attention from me. They don't deserve it.

Trying to kick a dog pile off the sidewalk only spreads it around and
gets shoes dirty in the process. Better to wak around a steaming pile
of feces and ignore it (which I hereby resolve to do a better job of)
than to engage certain idiots on their own level. They are so not
worth it. Keep a sharp eye peeled for anybody that meets that general
description, won't you? You never know where one will turn up.

Neither does your cabinet thread, and I believe we're still in it. Try using
OT for a change. I changed it for you so you get the idea.

Shame on you.

Many of the workers are more comfortable speaking Spanish. That's not
racism, that's an objective observation. And furthermore, it isn't
bigotry, unless you consider English somehow "superior" to Spanish.
Ear of the beholder?

There are some very intelligent and expressive people speaking and
writing nearly every language ever invented, certainly a long
tradition of literary excellence in Spanish. There are some folks dumb
as dog dung who speak and even attempt to write in English. English is
a ******* tongue that has borrowed and corrupted from a mixture of
(primarily romance) languages. Aside from the fact that the lexicon is
typically double or triple the size of the languages from which
English was assembled there is little that makes it "superior" to
Spanish, French, Italian, Greek, or Cantonese. In fact, the extreme
difficulty experienced by non-native speakers attempting to learn
English can be considered something of a disadvantage. English is one
of the "default" languages in many places around the globe. This is
due as much to the sun never setting on the British Empire and the
industrial/trade/tourism dominance of English speaking countries early
in the 20th Century as it is to any actual superiority of the English
language itself.

A variety of verb forms and greater flexibility with regard to the
order of words in a sentence allow Spanish speakers to express things
in one or two words that would take an entire sentence to describe in
English.

Observing that an individual may be more comfortable speaking one
language than another isn't racist or bigoted, although it might
appear that way to somebody operating from the perspective that people
unlike himself are somehow inferior.

But congrats on your short burst of self discipline. You observed our
informal cease fire longer than I would have thought you capable. For
my part, I'll continue ignoring you unless first attacked (as in this
thread). You are so not worth the bother, JimH.

JohnH,
I have to correct you on this one, Harry did not defend JimH's comment,
he just used it as an opportunity to attack the person Harry used to say
was one of the few first class gentlemen in rec.boats, one that he would
enjoy taking out on his boat any day of the week, and would like to meet
up when in Seattle.

The funny thing, Harry thought JimH, was lower than snail **** is now he
is his best buddy.

Ripley's believe it or not.

No, but I am planning to redo four kitchens and five bathrooms before

I can just see you running a table saw.
If I were contracting this job out, I wouldn't have said a peep.
I'm also planning to do a patio this summer, masonry, of course. Will
post progress photos...


Please enlighten us, Harry. Of what use was a table saw in the installation
of prefabricated cabinets?



Today's your lucky day, crap-for-brains, because I had to tear down my
desktop machine for a few days and am using my laptop, and I dumped the
filters on that machine a few months ago while experimenting. Obviously,
I need to set them up on the laptop so as to filter out you and the
rest of the newsgroup scumsuckers.

Let's see...table saw: end panels that need to be cut down to size. Trim
pieces that need to be cut down to size. Countertop support pieces that
need to be cut to the right lengths. Filler pieces that need to be
trimmed down to the right width. Custom side boxing for refrigerator.y


My electrician finished up today. I'm glad I got a pro for that part of
the job.

I'm also replacing a sliding patio door with a double "french" patio
door, and I have to make some custom trim pieces for that job.

Later, I'll be building a masonry patio, probably of stone. If you were
brighter than a dimwit, I'd invite you over to watch and maybe carry
some hod.

What will you be doing this summer, John? Licking your golf balls?


I am so pleased and honored that today is a 'no pretend' day.

Went out on the boat today to see what the Rappahannock has to offer.
Croaker are biting very well on bloodworms. Didn't try to find any
stripers.

Do you think you'll get any lobsta's this year?

Yes, cutting trim pieces and shortening support pieces is *definitely*
table saw work. Funny, I've helped renovate two kitchens now, and the most
we ever used was a chop saw. Hope everything turned out OK!

Chuck,
Please post pictures of the cabinets still in the box. It would really
be of special interest if you would keep us posted by tracking the
cabinets as they are shipped and post daily updates as to their location.

Oh yes, Chuck's words are very 'anti-Mexican'! Jimmie, your reading

==================

Now it is *many* and not *most*. ROTF.

What percentage of folks living in Seattle speak Spanish as their primary
language? It must be pretty high with all those Mexicans working as gofers
for construction jobs and speaking Spanish in the Home Depots around you.
Eh?

Spin it any way you want........you are a bigot.

Comprender?
