True Story of the Day

[promethean75]

The Florida Key archipelago and its linear band of sparkling cays is like a giant shimmering blue-green sea serpent, each island a cresting hump of its back as it porpoises in and out of the water. Especially the middle-southern Duck Key and Marathon part of the chain. Driving through there has to be surreal... a network of bridges connecting little white-sand islands surrounded by crystal clear water that's four feet deep and packed with coral reefs for days. I want to go snorkeling, mate. I want to come face to face with some bizarre shaped yellow and purple fish with huge disproportionately sized lips that hovers motionless one foot from my goggles and stares at me for like three minutes without moving.

Well that sounds wacky and awesome.

I'm certain Florida is lovely. I've got fins n a mask, snorkel and I spear fish (sometimes) I prefer just observing rather than killing

I'm fairly certain back in time I was aboard a ship or more....i've read a lot about sailing and I love it.

I love these guys though (*** the caribbean----------Arctic Sailing my shipmates, this bloke and his lady have worked out all they need about their boat/motor wind patterns etc etc ..occasionally they take ice samples for analysis required by scientists ......so impressed with them)

One of our numerous destinations will be the home of the late and great Ernest Hemingway in the Key West historic district. There, we will enjoy an edifying tour of the entire house as I read out loud all the little information plaques in each room above each exhibit, after which we stand in front of the exhibit and pose together for selfies.

Everyone is encouraged to bring a copy of some Hemingway, from which you will want to quote.

....if you insist.

The Hemingway lavatory. I do believe that is the original two piece window casing and floor tile.

Now that's someone with some class.

If you ever want to do some work around my gaff in Oz i'll buy your return air fare costs.

Something my Dad taught me prom, "never judge a carpenter by the mistakes he makes, but how well he can tidy them up" (or something like that)

I do the same in anything I apply myself to.

Don't worry about any travel issues, stop "using" drugs and make an effort. I'll show you around the place, introduce you to some lovely lasses (obviously keeping quiet about your daft indiscretion) and of course will work with you on any projects you agree to.



email me if you want and I will remain discrete about your choice, silly sod.

"never judge a carpenter by the mistakes he makes, but how well he can tidy them up"

That's just something carpenters who always make mistakes say. The plan is to do it right the first time and evaluate the carpenter on that basis.

However, i do empathize with what your old man said, and there is some merit to it. I have, in fact, made mistakes before doing work that i corrected/fixed faster than a co-worker would do the same once without making any mistakes. Ergo, i did the work twice in the same time or less than he did the work once. I mean, right? That's what the logic says.

Still, carpenters should not base their value on how good they are at tidying up their mistakes. We have to set the bar higher than that, mate.

"Don't worry about any travel issues"

It is easier to break into Fort Knox during the day than it is to obtain a visa and travel abroad as a SEX OFFENDER.

"stop using drugs"

Negative, ghost rider.

"obviously keeping quiet about your daft indiscretion"

Too risky. Most likely, somebody will send them a PM and tell them I'm a SEX OFFENDER.

What i need is a national female SEX OFFENDER dating site where i can meet creepy-sexy school teachers who had sex with their fifteen year old english students and are now hated by everyone.

So you decided rather than having an attempt to make your dreams come true and have an adventure, you decided to make me look like a pratt in front of everyone on the forum.

Challenge the system, or are you a coward? TEST IT, make every attempt to get to Australia.

Yeah, but the thing is, that would only have a handful of women on it and about a zillion men. No matter how you try to spin it, sexual predation is an exclusively male field of 'expertise' with rare exceptions only proving the rule.

[promethean75]

I'm sorry, did you just say fight the power and move to Australia to do so?

Australia is a land mass of wilderness and is almost completely irrelevant politically. If i wanted action, i wouldn't go to Australia, mate. This is the most exciting thing that has ever happened in Australia.

I'm sure they don't want you there either. You are such a perfect case study of a sexual predator: blames the victim. Blames the system. Blames the judge. Blames everyone and everything BUT himself.

[promethean75]

It would have been nice to have been convicted of crimes i did commit and not crimes i didn't. But at the very least, they could have just charged me with three felonies i commited rather than an additional six felonies i didn't commit.

Or maybe i have the wrong attitude about it all. Maybe i should feel some humility and be grateful for getting only six felonies i didn't commit instead of like seven or eight. Gosh, i never thought about it. That makes two of us then. By the way have you found your glasses yet?

But in the end, you are right in a philosophical way that is beyond your own grasp. Right by accident, as it were. Moral blame can not be attributed to those convicting me of crimes I didn't commit because there is no freewill. But causal blame most certainly can.

[promethean75]

... and for real for real, i was semantically only guilty of one felony instead of three since, regardless of how many people see an exhibitionist, exposing penii can only count as a single incident unless the penii is concealed and then exposed again in two or more successive exposures. Statute talk. You wouldn't understand.

I bet you understand this, though: your judicial system is full of shit.
