I DO NOT have a copy. I'm guessing the "artist" got the first copy. You got the second. (I will confess to having heard both. )

I'll be stuck in my office. But I'll splash in a week and do a long weekend on the boat on memorial day weekend.

Jim,
Ya never know.
Mother in Law is not the biggest boat fan around.
Last year was a nasty sail and we had to head in after about an hour.
She is nervous about going out again.
The forecast calls for light winds and flat seas.

Just because I can, I told her that we should be expecting 6 - 8 footers.

My Mother is 72 years old and she sails like a Kennedy.

You need to specify- is that in a boat, car, or plane?

My wife Julie started the phrase.
My 72 Year Old Mother comes down to the boat, has her boat shoes on, her sweater with a boat logo on it, her boat overnight bag, her boat windbreaker, etc. We sail and no matter what its like out there, she never complains. Sits where I ask her to on the low side and just takes it all in and enjoys herself. She looks like and she is a natural sailor.
Julie, started saying "She sails like a Kennedy." Maybe she meant Jackie, I don't know. But my Mother is very cute on board, she never complains, and is very natural on board.

And Alex, you can BITE ME!

For God's sake the woman is 72 years old. I give her a lot of credit for even going out with us. Piss Off!
