Amazing stuff that Bob. BS wins. Again. I don't need a yacht either. Happy at home with the family and the pet pangolins.

    Too boring - yes Nathan does have a yacht- he and his friends sail around - sounds dreadful to me.

    I don't need a yacht - a little house, a yard, and my Jeep and I'm a happy man. Maybe throw in a lake and a mountain too and I'm a very happy man.
