Rummmy,
Sure you have. It's just that he forgot the usually word that follows "smart". - rob

Joe,
Thank you. I don't believe I've heard my name and the word smart used in the same sentence before.

I don't know what kept the boat laid over, maybe the mast in the mud. The marina mechanics were baffled. They had righted sailboats before, and once the mast was clear, the boat righted. With mine, they got the mast out of the mud, but the boat did not cooperate. Ah, what the hell! She's all cleaned up in my driveway waiting for spring time. I could drive myself crazy trying to figure out the how and why. I'm a retired cop, not a retired engineer. My time is better spent happily scooting along toward the Chesapeake bay. I leave the figuring-out to smart Rhodies like you. Ahoy!
Joe
