Just for the record; this is the date stamp of the origianl post. 01/13/08 01:07 PM . Arie and I were rigging my boat at that time. Sorry I didn't notice it sooner.

Sure the picture offends me, but guys it was a bad choice on his part lets just drop it before we drive a catsailor away for ever.

What if "MR." weanie is a she?

Well, I hope you offer an apology to Heather for dragging her name into this morass.

The post in question was cut/pasted. Heather signed the press release, not the post. I know Heather and she would never do somehting like what HZ did.

Matt, if that is indeed the case I do apologize to Heather!
Guess I was too eager to get my own name cleared. This is really the last thing I will say about it, and just to make sure will delete that link.

Wow I'm off catsailor for about 24 hours and all hell breaks loose.
I am HobieZealot.
I am sincerely sorry for my post and thank you Mary for deleting it.
I thought it was funny at the time but I was wrong.
Again I am also sorry for not getting here sooner.
Apologies all around. Looks like I got here too late.
Bob Merrick

there is all the proof you need

Is HZ your alter ego?

" ... And he with out sin shall cast the first stone ..."

Bob,

Please bury "Mr Zealot", never to be seen or heard of again. You are too good of a person to resort to that level,sir. And "Mr Zealot" does not serve you well.

Sincerely

Maybe we should just start a "Politically Incorrect Photos" thread and we can get everything offensive posted in one place with the knowledge that it's not posted seriously. I think people like offensive "humor" without wanting to offend anyone themselves. " ... And he with out sin shall cast the first stone ..."


OK, another bad idea on my part. <img src="http://www.catsailor.com/forums/images/graemlins/confused.gif" alt="" />

I don't believe you. I mean, I don't believe you are Hobiezealot.

Mary there is an easy way to find out, PM me if you are interested. It has to do with the forum software.

mary, you have a PM with instructions.

Sadly the censuring of the material means I cannot see it or judge for myself what the fuss is about. I am pleased Mary, that you have seen that a cooler head is needed here than burning a mistake at the stake.
Someone, I think Shakespeare said humour is just tragedy plus time.
Humour, if that what is was is risqué by its very nature....everyone laughs until someone steps over an invisable mark.
Would this man indeed disparage a challenged person in a personal and thoughtless way?


I don't have to give a S*** what I say or do on the net because no one has that sort of hold on me..but some people are further into the rat race than others and might just e taking sensible precautions.

Sounds like winter has you Northern hemisphere guys all freaked out.
