I was hoping for another couple of days of warm weather before the
middle of November, but it doesn't look like it is going to happen.

Right now, it is in the low 40's, with an 18-knot northerly wind.
Water temp has dropped to the mid-50's.

Summer in Seattle weather, maybe, but not the sort of weather in
which I enjoy open boat boating.

Meanwhile, my retired friend who lives in Costa Rica sent me a
couple of ads for islands for sale right off the coast of Nicaragua.
$350,000 American for a three acre island with a house with diesel
generator, globalstar sat phone, a caretaker house, a concrete pier,
white sand beach, and "owner financing."

I wonder how often the island is under water during storms? The
house is 40' above sea level.

:} Be fun to raise the old Jolly Roger there.

It looks like you got about as much time on your engine as I did in
the in the last few weeks.





Dunno. I ended the season with about 30 hours on the new engine. I've
got to remove the electronics, cushions, batteries, docklines, et
cetera, and store them in the basement.

While it has been dry down here, you have had bad weather since they
pulled my boat. We could have used that tropical storm.



We had a really nice October, so I can't complain too much. It's
supposed to warm up a little next week, but I'm in the middle of writing
a proposal for funding for an NGO client, and I'll be chained to my desk
for a while.

The Jolly Roger would more likely come sailing in in the dead of night
than you hoisting one there.

It certainly is a consideration. My friend who retired to Costa Rica
says he hasn't had any problems with local criminals, but he has heard
or read of a couple of cases. He says Costa Rica is safer than the
United States. I have no idea what "crime" is like in Nicaragua.
Actually, I have no interest in moving there, but I know a few families
who have moved to Costa Rica and they seem to like it a lot. A mutual
friend from here is heading down to Costa Rica early in December and got
a round-trip air ticket for $325. Not bad.

I thought you previously stated that all you did was stay at the dock on
your houseboat. Did you run the engine the whole time you were at the
dock?- Hide quoted text -

Are you taking the electronics out of the 36' Zimmerman like Lobsta'
boat too?



You don't really think I'm going to climb down in the septic tank to
play with you, do you? If you do, you're even dumber than I thought, and
believe this, I think you are among dumbest posters who visit here.

Have a nice day.

Harry, you are the one in the septic tank. You have the overwhelming
stink of a liar.

The Hatteras Sport Fishing boat.
WorldCom wealth from questionable stock deals.
The 36' Zimmerman like Lobsta' boat.
The single largest forested and undeveloped parcel of land in Great
Falls, Virginia.

You really got your panties in a knot when I was able to prove that you
spend all of your time sitting in front of a computer instead of behind
the helm of a boat. And, your employer was made know as a result of this
which really ****ed you off.

Why did you have all of your posts removed from Google? Why do you not
want you posts archived?

Why did you send Chuck G a copy of your purchase order for the big Parker?

You are a pathetic old man searching for acceptance by others. You life
is too ordinary and you have to puff up your experiences with lies.
Everyone here knows it and laughs at you because you continue to do it
day in and day out.

It's going to be in the 60's next week. I've got a brother coming from NC
and one from Seattle for a week of mid-November golf, so the weather will
be great. This will be the last golf for about 4 months, so the weather
*better* hold up!

The overall tone of the newsgroup has improved a great deal recently
thanks to a lot of self restraint by many of us.

Why not let sleeping dogs lie?
