Speaking of hooligans and the America's Cup...There is a really wonderful B
movie - don't know if it ever made it to theaters, or if it went straight to
video and airplanes - about an America's Cup challenge. It's titled, oddly
enough, Sail, with Mathew Modine and Jennifer Gray before she got her nose
job and ended up looking like every other cute movie starlet of a certain
age...;-)

Anyway, as goofy as the movie is, it's a great deal of fun for anyone who
sails or wishes he or she sailed...and it has great shots of 12s racing...

Oh,right, and then there's Cliff Robertson and the sort-of-evil Newport
syndicate type....

...the America's Cup sailing races, where all the team members,
regardless of nationality these days, sell out to the highest bidding
owner / conglomerate.  At least they don't have hooligans [yet, says he
as he throws gasoline on the embers]...

Even sounds a little bit like the Tour de France bike race!  ;-)

Back polishing my M6 [hmmm, what's this zinc color coming through on the
edges???!!!]...
