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.
