Richard, I suggest you take a walk through South Boston and show your wife how macho you are. Try asking a Southey, "...why are Bostonians such wimps?" and I'm sure you'll get an immediate answer.

I would guess they would beat me up since they have spent the last six months indoors on their exercise equipment while I was sailing. But thanks for the heads up! I will be sure to only say it on the water there, where I will meet very few of them indeed.
