A rose is a rose and a flower is a flower. A rose is a flower but a flower isn't necissarily a rose. Roses can be red, white and yellow an so can other flowers. Is a red rose more different from a red tulip than a yellow tulip is from a red tulip?

Personally I like dandelions, they only come in one color.

Randy:

You are a cruiser. No ifs and or buts about it. Your boat would not be defined as a cruising boat. It is more of a racer cruiser than a "cruising" boat. In my line of work I am always coming up with this type of paradox. You have a tax question where the IRS will define something as a "widget." Then you will have a legal question where the civil code will have a legal definiton that says the same exact thing is a "what'z it." When I talk to a lawyer it is a "What's it" When I talk to an accountant it is a "Widget."

You have a sailboat. you Cruise it so its a cruising boat. YOur boat has a fin keel and 7' draft and there is a fleet of them that races it is a racing boat. What is really important is the bottle of Rum that we shared on the beach at China Camp and the other people you have shared rum with.

We found it about a month later. We had already replaced it. So now we have a spare. We found a new used one with a 6 hp four stroke. I think we were all in for $1500 or so.
