  1. When I was in college, I had a buddy whose father had a boat in a marina somewhere near Bergen Beach. He had a theory about boat ownership: generally speaking, the larger the boat, the less the owner actually knows about boating. It is a way to show off your penis extension, not a boat.

    He said that folks with big boats generally don’t use them. They go to the marina, sit around, drink booze with their friends, and show off their extended penis. He said that the scariest day around the marina was when one of these guys would actually take the boat for a spin. They would usually damage a bunch of other boats in doing so.

  2. True MM- but its us short Jewish ladies they really have to worry about. A friend taught me to shoot using a Walther. The kick almost tore my arm off.

    So I do want to let you know I will never ever ever ever be late with the rent again tho’

  3. That’s terrible news, benson.

    Funny, jackal. I do try to blend in a little when I am up in those parts visiting my parents. I try not to drive my parents’ car though. They still have a car alarm and occasionally, it goes off and I can never figure out how to shut the damn thing off. I get quite the hairy eyeball from the locals.

    There’s a joke about a jewish guy (this joke is about 40 years old, so this is a second generation guy, imagine someone born to shtetl parents who becomes a RE macher or something) who finally has enough money to buy a yacht. So he invites his grown kids to join him on the maiden voyage, and when they show up he’s got a captain’s hat and clothes to match.

    “Hi dad,” the son says, climbing abord.

    The dad asks him to call him captain when he’s on the boat. So the son says, “By me, you’re a captain. By you, you’re a captain. But by a captain, you’re no captain.”

    Anyway, that’s me in a flannel shirt buying ammo in the hill towns.
