Mr. Shulick, I knew Vince Lombardi and you sir, are no Vince Lombardi, so stop quoting someone you never knew. I won't even address the issue the list had with Roger P because it's ancient history, of which you were never party to. Apparently there is enough knowledge and good sailing information to keep even you around. What happened? Did you finally figure out how to use your delete key?

You would be 100% correct but for three faults. 1 - I'm a mediocre sailor at best. 2 - I can't cook. 3 - Well, there are some secrets that need to remain secret. Other than that, you're pretty much right. With love, Brad Hi Brad, Perhaps you were misnamed at birth. I would suggest the name Horaito from the writings of C.S. Foster. By your many exploits and triumphs it certainly seems to fit the bill. I withhold the second part of the name because I do like you and have no wish to inflame the conversation at this point. Now for Rummy, The last time I pointed out your hypocrisy about the Charter you replied not to let the door hit me in the ass on my way out. In spite of the much vaunted "knowledge" contained on this list there is a person in Colorado who has no picts of a standard boom or poptop car for her vintage boat. Where would Slim look to find correct lengths or diameters for replacing his standing rigging? Not here! I've done multiple searches for many topics for my 71 rhodes and draw nothing but blanks. But not to worry in the future I will make my own modest attempts to correct this. In the meantime to all older Rhodes owners I recommend the http/www.rhodes22.org/ site for a source of info on the actual boat we sail. Unfortunately the main contributer one R. Philaja apparently was hounded of the list by such as yourself. One final thought, I urge you to consider the words of one Vince Lombardi former coach of the Green Bay Packers. "Any time you think you are indispensable to a group or organization go put your foot in a bucket of water. The hole you leave behind when you withdraw your foot is as long as you'll be missed." Watch out for that door fellah it swings both ways John Shulick P.S. for Ed. more Blah Blah Blah only this time in book form -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/List-name-change.-tp18591290p18624413.html Sent from the Rhodes 22 mailing list archive at Nabble.com.See the original archive post
