I have always been impressed by the thrusters on these cruise ships.
Just watching them "parallel park" on the crowded docks along the
Miami River with a stiff onshore wind is a thing to see,.

Heh. Not quite in the same league, but here's me parallel docking the
Navigator using five horsepower (electric) thrusters.

They churned up a lot of mud. They did it without a pilot, too. Must be
a regular route for that ferry.

All right, that's about enough boat stuff,
you're messing with FOADs Newsgroup for Denigrating Conservatives.

Nah. I don't read posts from most of the occupants of the right-wing
clown car here, and those occupants include Whine and Gunboy Alex.

I said nothing about what you read.
I was referring to the life you live, devoted to writing denigrating
posts about conservatives on rec.boats.
Did you ever think about getting out of your easy chair and doing
something constructive?
54 out of the 100 posts on my reader are your started by you.
It would be no surprise that 93% of them are written to disparage
conservatives.
Your life is out of control, take a step back, no better take a long
walk back and see just what your life has become.
Again, get out of that chair.

Sincerely, Mikek
