Bull **** Artists...

Hello...

The word for today is DISCIPLINE - getting up every day and making things work...


DISCIPLINE - PROFESSIONALISM - ACOUNTABILITY...

****, a perfectionist... I hide behind ******** - for amusement and because I am shy (should have been an actor & made lots of money)

Discipline - no - not into those fetishes - a modicum of self discipline (as opposed to self abuse),
Professionalism seems too often to be an excuse for "backstabbing" and keeping the peons down... So many words have had their original meanings corrupted to meet the needs of "political speak"...
Accountability, in a moralistic sense in reasonable interpretation, is sadly lacking and desperately needs to be revived....
I TRY to live by "leave wherever you go slightly better for your being there"... Is this what your post is seeking to do and encourage debate?
Mostly I end up in self amusement whilst searching for trinkets of valuable information... Thanks for a trinket.

More likely to type before reading and understanding... I have great difficulty with physical violence - witnessing and feeling it... So I would not be around for the bread - literally or metaphorically - unless by accident, well, after the event not knowing what preceded... or just being a dumb-arse still...

Septics are "accused" of shooting from the hip - I could be accused of shooting from the mouth, as grumpy old bastards are want to do, in situations of frustration.

I fallow my foes...

Hello...

I respect that you may be pied...

That is as far as I will go...

Hope you had some fun on my account - my memory is slight on weekends - but if you insult my work or its precedents - my memory is that of an elephant looking for peanuts...

This may just be a convenient act...

NAH - weekend ryhymes with Whiskey - you however - seem to be on a hunt - if I am your target - well - so be...

See below - Malcolm Tenant - I ALWAYS CREDIT - my own work against other...

You have followed my amateurish passion, similar design principles are used by Kanga Bartles, Robin Chamberlin & recently seen on the maincat - power boat (but they have too much hull beam) and in sail John Hitch has a similar skinny hull design on his "X-IT" - I also appreciate his sail plan - befits a true cruising sail-boat - (never put the true wind ahead of amidships)

Please, where did you get that (website?)... I do not endeavour to make fun of or have fun on anybody's account, being entertained is altogether different and demands co-operative interaction for / of mutual benefit...

Can Your Read Frog...

Mas...

Let me adjust my tie - I am sure that you would be worst for wear...

If you ever say that **** again I will - ah - do something...

Malcolm Tenant has been doing that flat ass - no squat thing since 1985...

WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN...

Let me look up the details...

Probably tommorow - it should be obvious that I am about to fail - just now...

NO WAIT - I HAVE THE PB IN FRONT OF ME - scanning the article would cost you an apology...

I also like to declare my resources - inspirational ideas as I have done in early postings on "masalais model madness" and vigorously posted same (Robin Chamberlins C-10 powercat... et seq... )

I like to craft words - look for the intent rather than the cheap jibe from which offence may be taken but not intended. If my mood is "serious" so is the intended interpretation - Otherwise the ******** is rabid and easy to detect...

I am familiar with a lot of Malcolm Tennants work and admire it greatly but on this side of the Pacific, competition is such that innovative designs are not presented in line drawings. Because of market differences most cat construction is by amateurs I could name a dozen in cats (Aus/NZ) for a population that is quite small - per capita lots of cats are to be found... both power and sail...

I did not mean to piss you off, I do not know what has pissed you off. I would appreciate the article as it is of significant interest.

So affirm my analysis or critique it to ****... My exercise was to start with a "not very fine entry and exit" for simplicity of build, as I was not sure it could be built to the design weight of 7kg. It turned out to be 11kg, but illustrated the point - cost me Au$1000 to learn - far finer bow and longer taper at stern. I figured the topsides were simple enough to allow access & keep weight down. I was only interested in how the hulls would behave.

Now I am trying to get a better underwater shape - for my own interest and learning by doing and testing as a model - so I know what happens and why.

Having satisfied my stupidity, my current feeling is to have a Bob Oram C-44 built for me - not by me, as I lack the confidence and would not be able to do justice to the design... - and if Bob was willing and agreed, to put a John Hitch style rig on it...

A lot of my farming activities were in remote areas of Malaysia, PNG, Northern Territory and NW Western Australia - so I missed lots of stuff - 'tuff', I am not bothered too much, one does not miss what one does not know...

PM me a postal address and I will send a CD full of "Islands images from PNG & Solomon Islands cannot give more "rep points" yet
