Give it up for DaNag And TyBoo.

Tom, my good friend, read the last line.... That means put your hands together and applaud! Then "train centerline and secure".

Have a cold one for me, see you at SBS 10! Laughing

Thanks for all the responses, I really just wanted to keep the donation ball rolling for the people that make it all possible. I should have said valuable instead of worthless. But more important to me at least was what brought me to want to do the post in the first place and put money were my mouth was/ is. A post of mine a while back was met with some less than favorable comments. Not a problem, but I received a private message for someone who more or less said they thought it was right on the money. They did the private message route to alleviate alienating their friends by doing a post agreeing with my position. I thought it was a shame they felt that the private message route had to be taken. Later I thought how wonderful it was to have that P.M. option for the people who are concerned about alienating themselves. For me that’s never been a problem. That private message certainly made me feel better about my post. That’s what spurred me to make a donation to the site and in my east coast manner may offended some folks. So to Jim, thanks for being who you are and in fact a caretaker / care giver for the site in many ways with all your interesting and valuable contributions. I think Tom should buy but that’s just my worthless / valuable opinion. Mike you got the true essence of my post and feeling about the site. Marc, who described me once as being a little prickly in our boat dealings, I was sooo hurt. The Gong show was a favorite of mine. Dotnmarty always a favorite for a lot of people should thank you for all of your thoughtful comments to us all. Bess-C a great post I thought was funny. Tom, thirty people read it and didn’t respond I’d say that’s great! I mean from the looks of things it could have gone either way to be fair. Captain’s Cat was sooo right but my real motivation was to “give it up” meant give some money for a donation. I wanted to use one of Sally Fields lines from an acceptance speech. “So you like me I mean you really like me”. Then I thought ,nah that would be too corny. I enjoy the banter of the site please don’t read too much into my opinions. DaNag and Tyboo thanks for being there for all of us.
D.D.

This is what "Hmmm..." meant. Tom was, he says, just checking to see if I was even still here. I am...

By the way, Dave is from Buckingham Pa, Bucks County, the former home of both Pearl Buck and James Michener. Buckingham is just up the road from Washington's Crossing, where of course, George crossed the Delaware River, in flat bottom Durham boat, an ancestor of the C-dory
