The HK Foundation appreciates those monthly checks you send, and promises
not to tell everyone about the *five illegitimate children you fathered in
the Carolinas during your last trip there*.



What?? Didn't think our Tom had it in him! Good show.

Tom's a generous guy. With last month's check, I was able to treat
myself to a latte, small, at Starbucks.

My potential buyer called again this morning - wanted to make sure
that I "understood" his offer.

Get this - he felt that based on his "surveyor's" report that perhaps
he made an inappropriate offer. He went into this long explanation of
the why's and how's then said this:

"I don't want the engine as it's very old. Based on your asking
price, my "surveyor's" report and the cost of a new four stroke Honda
long leg which will cost me at least $3,000, I'll up my offer to
$1,000." Basically, he wants me to buy his new engine for him.

I told him never to call me again. :)

Ever.


Donate it to the Boy Scouts and be done with it and the frustrations you
are
experiencing.


I donate enough money, time and effort to charities.


Whatever. Just trying to reduce your stress factor.

Perhaps he would like to keep the other 75% of the boat's value? Not
everyone makes the sizeable charitable contributions you make!

Hee hee.. you're like me. Once someone ****es me off & insults me I
wouldn't care if he showed up at the door with the full asking price in
cash. I'd throw his sorry ass down the porch stairs and give him 10 seconds
to get off the property before I unleash the dog.

Did you price the sails separately as I suggested?
