Good By

The more I looked into the insurance thing, the worse it got.

Thanks to all of you who helped make flying as interesting and
rewarding as it was for me.

No need to reply. I am un-subscribing from this newsgroup and putting
all things to do with aviation out of my mind for a while. I need to
focus on other things like working on the 32 foot sailboat I'm going
to sail to Newfound and Labrador in a few years. It's not like I
won't be having fun and some grand adventures.

Roger,

“To requite your gallonde [gallon] of godbwyes, I regive you a pottle of
howdyes."
(From the piece below my sig)

Good luck in your future adventures.

32-ft sailboat ...hmm. A WIG (Wing In Ground Effect) B-O-A-T would get you
there quicker. g

Something to think about. Of course it will need a well designed hull...

I'll give you two pottle of howdyes if you stay! :-)

(From dictionary.com)
Word History:
No doubt more than one reader has wondered exactly how goodbye is derived
from the phrase “God be with you.” To understand this, it is helpful to see
earlier forms of the expression, such as God be wy you, god b'w'y, godbwye,
god buy' ye, and good-b'wy. The first word of the expression is now good and
not God, for good replaced God by analogy with such expressions as good day,
perhaps after people no longer had a clear idea of the original sense of the
expression. A letter of 1573 written by Gabriel Harvey contains the first
recorded use of goodbye: “To requite your gallonde [gallon] of godbwyes, I
regive you a pottle of howdyes,” recalling another contraction that is still
used.

The more I looked into the insurance thing, the worse it got.

Dammit, Roger, that's just crap. Insurance is NO reason to quit doing what
you clearly love to do.

I've read your stuff for years, both here and in emails -- you *need* to
fly, just as surely as you need to breathe. Don't let this happen.

Good buy, a bargain, worth the cost.
Good by, pass it by, not really a proper English usage.

Good Bye, so long, farewell, bye, bye.

Bicycle was the first word that came to my mind.

Not controversial enough to spark a long thread.

Actually, bimetal came to mind as in thermostat coil.

Good luck getting boat insurance under your umbrella policy. Hit one of
those 5M power yachts docking your boat or in the channel and you are
screwed. You will lose everything!
