I think these quotes by Yogi Berra (a famous baseball player) summarizes everything you need to know:

# "This is like deja vu all over again."

# "You can observe a lot just by watching."

# "He must have made that before he died." -- Referring to a Steve McQueen movie.

# "I want to thank you for making this day necessary." -- On Yogi Berra Appreciation Day in St. Louis in 1947.

# "I'd find the fellow who lost it, and, if he was poor, I'd return it." -- When asked what he would do if he found a million dollars.

# "Think! How the hell are you gonna think and hit at the same time?"

# "You've got to be very careful if you don't know where you're going, because you might not get there."

# "I knew I was going to take the wrong train, so I left early."

# "If you don't know where you are going, you will wind up somewhere else."

# "If you can't imitate him, don't copy him."

# "You better cut the pizza in four pieces because I'm not hungry enough to eat six."

# "Baseball is 90% mental -- the other half is physical."

# "It was impossible to get a conversation going; everybody was talking too much."

# "Slump? I ain't in no slump. I just ain't hitting."

# "A nickel isn't worth a dime today."

# "Nobody goes there anymore; it's too crowded."

# "It gets late early out there." -- Referring to the bad sun conditions in left field at the stadium.

# "Glen Cove." -- Referring to Glenn Close on a movie review television show.

# Once, Yogi's wife Carmen asked, "Yogi, you are from St. Louis, we live in New Jersey, and you played ball in New York. If you go before I do, where would you like me to have you buried?" Yogi replied, "Surprise me."

# "Do you mean now?" -- When asked for the time.

# "I take a two hour nap, from one o'clock to four."

# "If you come to a fork in the road, take it."

# "You give 100 percent in the first half of the game, and if that isn't enough in the second half you give what's left."

# "90% of the putts that are short don't go in."

# "I made a wrong mistake."

# "Texas has a lot of electrical votes." -- During an election campaign, after George Bush stated that Texas was important to the election.

# "Thanks, you don't look so hot yourself." -- After being told he looked cool.

# "I always thought that record would stand until it was broken."

# "Yeah, but we're making great time!" -- In reply to "Hey Yogi, I think we're lost."

# "If the fans don't come out to the ball park, you can't stop them."

# "Why buy good luggage? You only use it when you travel."

# "It's never happened in the World Series competition, and it still hasn't."

# "How long have you known me, Jack? And you still don't know how to spell my name." -- Upon receiving a check from Jack Buck made out to "bearer."

# "I'd say he's done more than that." -- When asked if first baseman Don Mattingly had exceeded expectations for the current season.

# "The other teams could make trouble for us if they win."

# "He can run anytime he wants. I'm giving him the red light." -- On the acquisition of fleet Ricky Henderson.

# "I never blame myself when I'm not hitting. I just blame the bat, and if it keeps up, I change bats. After all, if I know it isn't my fault that I'm not hitting, how can I get mad at myself?"

# "It ain't the heat; it's the humility."

# "The towels were so thick there I could hardly close my suitcase."

# "You should always go to other people's funerals; otherwise, they won't come to yours."

# "I didn't really say everything I said."

Have you ever considered this?

Turn off your bullshit filters before you read on.

The story goes that 14 billion years ago there was a big bang and an amazing amount of **** happened. When I say 14 billion it's just a number and it's hard for our little brains to fully appreciate. So consider that if we were to take a walk and every step we took represented 1000 years we would have to walk 140 thousand kilometers to represent the time line of things past. The last six steps of the journey is recorded history, the last foot print is the age of technology and the last and the last toe imprint we leave on this 140 thousand kilometer journey is our time here on this planet.

Now consider that the area of the screen you are looking at represents everything that is known to be FACT proven beyond reasonable doubt that is known to man everything in every library, every university, and every web site everything that man knows to be FACT.

Ask yourself how much of this do you know yourself. What area of this screen would you know yourself – think about it. It would probably be represented by one pixel.

So if all you know to be true is one pixel and in the 140 000 kilometer journey your time here is represented by a toe imprint we really know very little about this great cosmos we live within – yet we all believe we have all the answers.

Is it not possible that there is so much more to know but we turn on our inhibiting bullshit filters to disregard stuff that could be a possibility?

We don't have all the answers and it is possible we have got it all incredibly wrong, given that only a couple of hundred years ago we discovered that the earth wasn't flat, wasn't the centre of the universe and our planet revolved around the sun and then we discovered our sun wasn't the centre of the universe.

We are incredible creature here to create and discover, let's put aside all our differences and join together to celebrate this amazing gift we have been given, the gift of life. We are all searching for the truth perhaps what we have been lead to believe isn't what is perhaps if we all stopped and had a good educated think we might just see that life is really simple and life is meant to be a journey of fun and discovery. We should all be looking for enlightenment. And to find enlightenment we must open our mind to the potential of new discoveries.

Take time to consider think this through and like me you will find an inner peace that will take you places you never thought possible

How about boats...
The joke is 'Boat stands for Bust Out Another Thousand'
Boats are horrible for the environment..bottom paints, epoxies, paints..etc.
The upkeep for boats is extensive, and very expensive.
Where I live, a good deal for a slip is 14 dollars a foot (slip rental for a 50 foot boat is 700 dollars a month, not counting facilities charges)
The coast guard can, and will, board your boat armed with m-16's, and completely search your boat, no warrants needed.
