They've done something dude. They've done something.

I respect what you've done as well (read the article), but I've never been a big fan of bitter. It's a messy way to self-aggrandizement.

I hope I run into you on the water and get a chance to have a beer with you. Bound to be very entertaining. You've certainly got character.

Why thank you. Of course, I get that a lot since I'm a pretty spectacular sailor who is maddeningly handsome and more benevolent than a Catholic nun. You probably know me from several award-winning adventure documentaries and my time in Mali with that Jolie chick.*

Re: The Bum(fuzzle)s Are Moving Afloat Again !

All the celebrities are coming out tonight. Hey...in the advertising world we call self aggrandizement....."Marketing."

P.S. I don't know if it's safe for sailors to compare the themselves to nuns. It gets lonely out there on the water.

Not sure that statement is correct unless your definition of privileged is going to school, learning to buy and sale in the Ag commodities and do good at it.
