NNNNOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!

SO long as you have a DD214 you can say anything you want, no neck
bullet head. ;-)


Ahhh, the over-the-hill old farts continue to live in the uniforms in
which they no longer fit, reminiscing about the good old days when they
had to think even less than they do now, because someone else told them
what to do.

You boys really are The Village People.

Where can you find pleasure
Search the world for treasure
Learn science technology
Where can you begin to make your dreams all come true
On the land or on the sea
Where can you learn to fly
Play in sports and skin dive
Study oceanography
Sign of for the big band
Or sit in the grandstand
When your team and others meet


In the navy
Yes, you can sail the seven seas
In the navy
Yes, you can put your mind at ease
In the navy
Come on now, people, make a stand
In the navy, in the navy
Can't you see we need a hand
In the navy
Come on, protect the motherland
In the navy
Come on and join your fellow man
In the navy
Come on people, and make a stand
In the navy, in the navy, in the navy (in the navy)


They want you, they want you
They want you as a new recruit


If you like adventure
Don't you wait to enter
The recruiting office fast
Don't you hesitate
There is no need to wait
They're signing up new seamen fast
Maybe you are too young
To join up today
Bout don't you worry 'bout a thing
For I'm sure there will be
Always a good navy
Protecting the land and sea


In the navy
Yes, you can sail the seven seas
In the navy
Yes, you can put your mind at ease
In the navy
Come on now, people, make a stand
In the navy, in the navy
Can't you see we need a hand
In the navy
Come on, protect the motherland
In the navy
Come on and join your fellow man
In the navy
Come on people, and make a stand
In the navy, in the navy, in the navy (in the navy)


They want you, they want you
They want you as a new recruit


Who me?


They want you, they want you
They want you as a new recruit


But, but but I'm afraid of water.
Hey, hey look
Man, I get seasick even watchin' it on TV!


They want you, they want you in the navy


Oh my goodness.
What am I gonna do in a submarine?


They want you, they want you in the navy

Doesn't everyone have a DD214?




Some people were smart enough to do something else instead.

A vast majority of the men and some women my age do. Younger folks, not
so much.

True. But there are some folks who don't have one. Most of those have a
valid reason. Some were just chicken****s. They squawk a lot.


Really funny stuff here. The old farts who lost a major war in Vietnam
strutting their stuff.

Checked the rec.boats newsgroup this morning. 37 new posts

10 are from "regulars" here and are mostly boating related.
27 of them are political cross postings, thanks to Harry.

Eisboch

If we were to leave that sick puppy alone, he might just get bored and
leave.

That would be nice, but given his history over the past 14 years, I doubt
it
will happen soon.
He has an insatiable need to be seen, heard and to spread his political
gospel.

Dragging the other NGs in here by crossposting is just another example of
his hypocrisy and his ill will to those who don't share his POV.

Ironically, he represents everything that is bad in his political
affiliation.

Eisboch

Not to be an asshole or anything, but I must point out that you let him
suck you into his **** on a daily basis.

Filter him and his supporters. Easy.


You're right. Back into the bin.
It just would be nice to see regular faces in here, discussing subjects of
common interest and not the wacko's dragged in by you know who, just to
disrupt the NG.

For the record, I enjoy reading and conversing with almost all the people
here, on boating subjects or not. Even Harry, when he is not on one of his
obnoxious political crusades. IMO, every post or subject need not be
directly boating related, as long as the subjects are of general interest to
most. If they are not of general interest, the threads or initial post soon
die.

Old school plank owners of Usenet correctly point out the practice or custom
of 100% on-topic posting. The practice originated back in the days of 1200
baud (or less), dial-up, Internet connections where downloading a bunch of
posts would take 10 minutes or more. In those days it was important to
stay completely on topic because otherwise you wasted people's time and
affected telephone bills as they downloaded off topic posts.

Those days are gone. It takes a second now to download the subject headers
of a 100 or more posts. IMO, (and it's only an opinion) the speed and
bandwidth today allows for a relaxation of old Usenet customs. Discussing
varied subjects, of common interest, is not a big deal, in my opinion.
Personal insults, flame wars, threats, or using the NG on a regular basis to
further one's own agenda should still be off-limits, I think, but it's
probably too much to realistically expect.

Eisboch



If there was no need to stay on topic, there would be one big
newsgroup, or even a hundred with numbers rather than names. Instead,
there are over 80,000 of them with topics included in their names, and
charters outlining their purpose. It has nothing to do with speed, and
everything to do with organization.





I find it interesting that this comment from Eisboch:

"Personal insults, flame wars, threats, or using the NG on a regular
basis to further one's own agenda should still be off-limits..."

seems to fly in the face of many of his recent comments here.


He's playing the do as I say, not as I do game.
