I need my glasses. I thought this said circumcision which is wrong on so many levels....

Circumnavigation sounds dirty.

I could have gotten a ship for my birthday. I'd still have to bum rides off people.

What kind of jackass is going to donate to the $350,000 needed so some little brat can go on a cruise around the world? Rich people annoy me.

Potential sponsors? Can't you just hear some idiot marketing genius? "We need to have our company's name on those sails. There won't be anyone else doing this for 3,000 miles in any direction."

Personally, I think she's pressing her luck. Hope she doesn't end up at the bottom of the Marianas Trench.

Call me bitter and awful, but I hope she does.

That's beyond bitter and awful. Wishing death on somebody? Seriously!?!
