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.

Now let me see, they would be the same morons who voted in President Shrub ?

ps - Sorry CD, this thread slipped under the Wombat's radar. Poor old froggies, they really do get some stick don't they. For all their failings they do a nice line in yummy women, yummy food and yummy wine. That makes up for a lot.

I appreciate the thought CD, but bestfriends will be needed on the moon too. I think we can find water, if not for sailing, at least enough for ice for our drinks.

Ah, but see, you forgot the liberal orthodoxy. Bush was never elected, he stole both elections.
