Lemon Grass Tea? I am truly surprised, no I am sadly surprised. I am

coffee with a 1/2 teaspoon of sugar and a tablespoon of International

All flavored creamers are garbage, a product category aimed at tittering old

I lilke herbal teas - in particular when I'm in the middle of an RA

However, I don't use pansy creamers or sugar - honey for a sweetener.

Your assumption is that *everyone* wants to go RV'ing on the water, or
to use a boat to get from Point A to Point B when there are many other
ways to convey oneself. Perhaps that sort of lifestyle is most appealing

Nope, it isn't that everyone wants to use a boat the same way, it is
that anyone who goes out of their way to denigrate someone for using
their boat obviously has some real issues and/or is very jealous of
someone else's life style and succuss.

While many people do think Wayne has a real nice boat, and is someone
who enjoys boating and the cruising lifestyle, have you noticed no one
has said the same about your boat or your lifestyle?

Why don't you fly off somewhere and rent a boat for a hour to two.

You think? Well, then, let me try to refine the last part.

I'm unimpressed by retirees who do nothing but indulge themselves, and
virtually nothing to help others.

I have a retired relative, 75 years old, who takes a 30-day vacation
every year. The rest of the time, he and his wife help build homes for
the homeless, run a soup kitchen in areas that suffer natural disasters,
and help pregnant young girls find suitable alternatives to getting an
abortion. They also help members of their church who are hospitalized
maintain their homes.

My relative and his wife have something meaningful to do. I asked them
once why they give back so much, so much of the time. "We're not so
self-indulgent that all we think of is ourselves and our comforts," he said.

I admire them. Maybe it's their *real* Christian ethic I find so
appealing. :}

Your assumption is that *everyone* wants to go RV'ing on the water, or
to use a boat to get from Point A to Point B when there are many other
ways to convey oneself. Perhaps that sort of lifestyle is most appealing
to retirees with nothing else to do.

You can do a little better than admiring him. Try emulating him instead, you

I *knew* you knew that.

My personal pet peeve is with those who constantly saturate anybody and
everybody with their own cynical outlook on anything and everything that
isn't within their own POV. It's tiring to listen to and hard not to react
to sometimes, especially when otherwise people like that often have positive
contributions to make or interesting experiences to share.

Welcome to the club Dick.


Is there a membership fee to join this club?


Being in the Bozo's Bin helps!


I am in and out of the Bozo Bin so often, I can't keep up if I am a
current member or not.


First, let's get the name correct. It's the 'Bozo's Bin'.

Yes, you worked hard to get in, and you made it. That means the owner of
the Bozo's Bin must have excuses lined up for when he accidentally answers
you.

Who the hell are you to judge?

You've no idea what Wayne, Rich, or anyone else do to help others. It's for
damn sure you don't spend a lot of time 'helping others' unless you've got
a soup kitchen next to your computer.

Your comments are.......not cool.

I thought you were pro-choice? I get to live my life the way I choose
and you get to live your life the way you choose. Why are you
denigrating people their for the choices they make when they retire?

You seem to have a narrow view of what others should do and if they
don't fall in line with your narrow view you whine about them.

Wayne just recently returned to his house in Floriduh from an extensive

Considering where he lives can you blame him wanting to get the hell
out of there?
Maybe he just likes being out on his boat more than sitting home
watching TV
LOL, I do think it is funny that those who very rarely boat, highlight
the fact that Wayne does a lot of boating as a negative.

Now I've got lemon grass tea all over my keyboard and monitor. :)


Lemon Grass Tea? I am truly surprised, no I am sadly surprised. I am
almost disgusted to know this about you. As I walk to get my next cup of
coffee with a 1/2 teaspoon of sugar and a tablespoon of International
Delights Hazelnut creamer. And, I don't do the Carnation Hazelnut
creamer, it tastes like crap.


Hazelnut foo foo underpantsy creamer, that one? ;)
Of course my dad calls me names for putting milk and sugar.. says
"what's that, ain't coffee, wrong color to be coffee". He is 90, he
can do that;)

He is correct.
