Ok, have you ever been in a sail boat?

No.

Well you must try it.
Your doing a tack with the sail fully stable suckin'
energy from the wind, cuttin' water and bouncin'
waves off the starboards, that's the sound you hear.

Next, you reverse tact and the sail flutters (stalls)
until re-acquistion of stability going in nearly the
opposite direction and you're still heading into the
wind, so the net motion is into the wind. Every pilot
should do that. I was on trapeze, with a good fat old
captain on the til, and me being a skinny lively bitch
loved jumped to either side of the boat, pulling the
sail to max the energy out of the wind.

First you say you wouldn't want to be in the cockpit with a homosexual,
then you refer to yourself as a "bitch".

Very strange.

(This is why I like unmoderated groups.)

Not really, I *was* 36-26-40, didn't know that until
some fella asked me to be his best man and the
fitters couldn't believe how skinny my waist was,
doing the tux thing, man I was centered out!
My friends started calling me Katy (KT) and makin'
fun of me, but it was all in good humor.

Sorry, I was a bit premature with the Alice in Ownderland comment. We;re
into Naked Lunch territory here.

I can't swim, which is bad if you intend to go out on the ocean in a tiny
boat.

Could be bad even if you go in a BIG boat.

That has occurred to me, which is probably why I'm unlikely to go on a cruise
(even though I've been told that the best cruises are quite nice).

five--not five."

Swimming is something you could learn with little trouble Anthony. Not
much cost involved I would think. I'm a lousy swimmer myself, but can
get along well enough not to drown.
For cruises, I pay very close attention to the life boat drill :-))

Tried several times, failed. Almost drowned on several occasions. I just
avoid water now.

On overseas flights I scrutinize the waves below and try to remain hopeful.

You can't do anything. You are just a life failure who plays with little
boys.
