My dad died when I was in college.......my mom just 2 1/2 years ago.
I would never have considered taking her out on my boat during her
last 15 years as walking down the ramp to the boat then getting onto
the boat would be very dangerous for her.

That's a very sensible comment.
John knows from past exchanges that mom is in a nursing home.
She is now wheelchair bound and will hit 94 in November.
John knows I bought Tom's 15' open aluminum utility type boat.
Anyone who doesn't think he brings my mom into the fray to punish/jab
at/control me might be interested in a couple of local harbour bridges I
have for sale.
How's your credit Loogy?

My mom died at 76. She went for a motorcycle ride at 76. If I'd had a boat,
she'd have gone out in it in a heartbeat. "Walking down the ramp" would be
pretty stupid. I put in where there's a dock. If your mom was in too bad a
shape, for 15 years, to get into a boat, then that's a real shame. It must
have been hard for everyone.

Don, I intended nothing evil when I asked about your mom and the boat. Nor
did I know she was wheel-chair bound. Nor have I been keeping track of her
age. Nor did I say anything which she would in any way find 'harassing'..
But, if you take a question about your mom as 'punishment' or a 'jab', then
I must apologize for unintentionally hurting you.

I certainly didn't mean to do so.

He repeatedly asked you to stop asking about his mother. *You ignored
his request and stepped over the line with your last post.


How about saying nasty, untrue things about someone's wife and school
aged children? THAT seems to be quite exceptable to you and Harry.
