I think the pirate thing is overblown. How many pirates have comandeered a personal sailboat in the last, what, 5 years? I don't know the answer, but I can only think of one instance. Of all things, that's the least of my concern.

Running into some unmarked reef at night, followed closely by running into another boat, are my biggest fears. Yes, in both those cases fears 1, 2 and 3 are a possibility though still avoidable. And, thats if you wreck your boat....which you shouldn't do with a little bit of planning and knowledge.

Random questions: Would you do the Panama Canal, or wrap around Cape Horn? Does the Panama Canal have exorbitant fees for personal crafts, like letting through 50 at a time for megabucks?

Also, I was entirely joking about the Lost spoiler thing. Now, if you spoiled Breaking Bad, which I'm not up to date on, I'd do terrible things. Well, I'd probably just mope and pout for a few minutes and go to work.

My grandiose life plan is to one day win an argument with Mr. Wart. And I don't mean just win an argument, because I actually win a lot of the arguments, but the life plan is to actually have Mrs. Wart actually admit actual defeat in an actual argument.

Oh man. I saw this video on a sailing website today. Watched with little interest until the end when it hit me. The elderly couple you see hugging at the end are the owners. They likely just lost their home and only means of transportation. They'd apparently been living on the boat for years now and had limited time, obviously, to try to scrounge up everything they could before it was all gone. The two embracing at the end really made me sad for them.
