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. |

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. Harry, here's the problem. The first two sentences of your reply above is fine. The last one is not required and only fuels the fire, so to speak. But you knew that. Eisboch 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. :} 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. |

After being home for only a few weeks he is preparing to leave for an extensive cruise down south. 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. Reading comprehension problems Reggie? No, why do you ask? |

I do believe Jim H and I live in the same town. My condolences. Give a guy a warning will you? 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. |
