A Marine and a sailor were sitting in a bar one day arguing over which was
the superior service.
After a swig of beer the Marine says, 'Well, we had Iwo Jima.'
Arching his eyebrows, the sailor replies, 'We had the Battle of Midway.
'Not entirely true', responded the Marine. 'Some of those pilots were
Marines, in fact, Henderson Field on Guadalcanal was named after a Marine
pilot killed at the Battle of Midway.'
The sailor responds, 'Point taken.'
The Marine then says, 'We Marines were born at Tunn Tavern!'
The sailor, nodding agreement, says, 'But we had John Paul Jones.'
The argument continued until the sailor comes up with what he thinks will
end the discussion. With a flourish of finality he says...... 'The Navy
invented sex!'
The Marine replies, 'That is true, but it was the Marines who introduced it
to women.'
The thoughts and opinions expressed by me here on this forum are IN NO WAY to be taken as the policy of BASC nor or they to be taken as the opinion of the BASC Board of Directors. They are as they have always been, MY OPINIONS AND THOUGHTS ONLY- Jim
The moment we begin to fear the opinions of others and hesitate to tell the truth that is in us, and from motives of policy are silent when we should speak, the divine floods of light and life no longer flow into our souls.
Elizabeth Cady Stanton, 1890
"You have enemies? Good. That means you've stood up for something, sometime in your life." -- Winston Churchill

and the gospel of envy, its inherent virtue is the equal sharing
