See what a little ADD can do around here, Francis? You bring up something simple like waxing rope and you get all the way to Shakespeare in only one page!

Oh boy
You guys crack me up.
Nice post Ray, I liked that poetic rendition of 2B or not 2B a Mac owner.

Thanks guys, but it wasn't me; it was old Bill remember. He always says it best.
We own Mac's. Remember what he said about that.

I washed one of my halyards in my dad's front-loading washer; worked great. I would not want to wash them in an agitator washer.
What about waxing the shrouds? Might provide some protection from the elements.
