"If you put it out there someone could make it bleed."

John, with all due respect... perhaps we have
a language barrier here or something because
I didn't read what you read and come up with the
same conclusions.

You say you were tongue-in-cheek and then
prove otherwise by being somewhat Anti-American
with your remarks. You use generalities talking
about Americans and their arrogance, etc.  Why
Foreigners leave American lists (aren't we ALL
foreigners in America?).  

That's way different than 'bella referring to you as a "whiner."  No slurs.

And you did whine... you know... and you are Danish.  So that's 2 for 'bella
 0 for you.

"Boating doesn't belong to just Americans...
you act like you invented it."  Have mercy!  Dear John, you missed the whole
point of the exercise.
How can 'bella talk or write about sailing in Denmark when she hasn't?  She
spoke of the freedom SHE and WE ALL have via our boating lifestyle and
expounded on it via personal exprience.  It was quite eloquent, I thought.

But that was totally missed by you because you thought she tapped that chip
on your shoulder.
No chips here, John.  'bella can dish it out and take
it too.  We sailing women (from any Country)
don't wear lambskin gloves... shhh, let the rest
of the guys think we do!

Signature lines are signature lines.  I say go for it.
Put what you want, it's your personality in typeface
as I say.  This isn't about saving bandwidth... the
junk and gunk added on to the digests are real
eyesores... a few lines of text won't kill any of us.
Read any dissertations on here lately?

We're all adults here.  I don't feel moderators are necessary at all.  So
pretend we don't have any.

Okay.  All good.  We can now all kiss and make 
up 'cause I'm going to have a Danish in the morning... and I will be
thinking about you John.  It's nice to meet you!

Danishes make every thing all better.  

BIG Hugs,

Charmaine

Ok guys...I got it, be quiet and keep your opinion to yourself..if they do
not happen to agree with the Americans. :o) Give me a break. Someone said I
"berated" Bella...come on now, I merely disagreed with her using political
statements in her SIG line, and then tongue in cheek corrected her spelling
and calling your former President Harry J Truman, instead of his actual name
Harry S Truman. All said in a light hearted and, I thought, Humorous way,
but I forgot something......dang Americans as a rule do not laugh about
themselves. So as a result Bella started using slurs and name calling:
