Etc. Reminds me of the old salt who dressed and talked like a sailor but rode a bike around the streets of Nantucket. After watching him do this for a long time, a little boy asked him, "Mr. Sailor, how come you always ride a bike and never sail your ship. The old salt responded: "Sonny, that's because my barque is worse than my bike!" Sorry, couldn't resist.
