Oi Donkey,

I am going to sue you.

I was reading your dissertation in the anchor thread, and not once, BUT TWICE, I slipped into an unconscious state and whacked my head on my desk. Generally your threads only illicit the 'drool hanging out of the side of my mouth' response while in a dreamless state. This one really went over the top. I plugged it into my Sailaway 21 cliffnotes book and the freaking book caught fire. It is gone. History. ANother worthwhile internet tool down the drain.

What have you to say for yourself?

What would you do with an anchor? Make a lawn ornament out of it?

I know...just because you put it in quotations doesn't mean we allow ethnic or racial slurs of any kind here even if Jesse DID say it! Bite me back!
BTW I am in Oyster Bay right now! I should be able to let out a couple more notches in my belt by the end of the week!

I gotcher' ethnic slur, you FLID! (g)

Hey,
Is it true that you're going to work with Denby at the Shoreham plant? I think they only give the night watchman one computer; it's a pity you bein' stuck as the rover. Does that mean that Denby will be moderating while you're gettin' eaten alive my mosquitos? If you're stayin' with family, you might want to buy that security guard uniform one size over. (vbg)

I understand Denby doesn't need a flashlight...he glows in the dark!

BTW...this FLID says you should "@#$$ ! $%$$#% %$$$$". Edited by Cam.

You know what the first rule of sailing is? ...Love. You can learn all the math in the 'verse, but you take
a boat to the sea you don't love, she'll shake you off just as sure as the turning of the worlds. Love keeps
her going when she oughta fall down, tells you she's hurting 'fore she keens. Makes her a home.

Hey Dog,
I had the pleasure of getting up close and personal with a 64' Gunboat last night. I know she is not your type because you prefer 3 over 2, but it was still a very impressive boat. 64' LOA and 28' Beam, nice platform!! She was lying in Chicago off of the CYC docks preparing for the Mac Race. Now if you could only teach her to point to wind.

TJK,

Have you seen the video of the Gunboat 62 passing the R/P 80? I don't think they have to worry too much about absolute pointing ability!

Found here, at "videos": Multihull Catamaran Sailing Yachts, Luxury Catamarans - Gunboat
