just filling in the dots to keep the thread rolling

That was an interesting link sir! Real mudslinging. I would have missed it entirely due to the title. Property on land is way down my list. Right behind a helopad on the afterdeck, which itself is immediately behind build an afterdeck.

And I'm reminded of a poster who was responding to a particularly incendiary post by another. He didn't get in the bad guy's virtual face at all but simply responded to the effect, "I seriously doubt you would say that to my face." My maturity gene is missing but I admire it in others.

muckslinging in a property for sale advert...lol i gotta read this..and here i thunk it were gonna be boring as batshit..oops did i say poo in the first person out loud......ouch.


but isnt the maturity gene the one that trumps the active inner child in those of us who remain interesting for life long adventures in different things constantly changing and having fun while others just watch tv and exist????'

There's not a lot better example than regular seaman Boatman61 himself, who I think is more like 66. Boozing and carousing apparently are the keys to a long active life. I'm counting on it meself.

Okay that was a walk in the twilight zone. My property is for sale, don't ask where it is, I won't tell you. I'll bet price negotiations will be a nightmare. Not to mention the title search.

Wow that thread about the property sure took a nosedive. I stayed out of it due to the lack of info being a clue. No point in following.

ROFL... I suppose it all comes under the heading of 'entertainment' then. To quote one of Sandy's pet sayings, "Never confess"!

GO GO BOATY

Wow, that's pretty good on #6. Based on the Sunday position, he is about 1588nm from FLL which averages out to about 144nm per day.

2313nm left to get to abeam GIB, if going non-stop, is another 16 days or so if the daily average holds.

Can this thread hold together for that long? . . .
