    '... I'm Scottish by birth, too, (third generation off 
    the boat ...' 

    'Look, Pa.  I'm a captain.' (Showing his new boating cap 
    to his father.)

    'Sure, son.  To me your a captain.  To your mother -
    she loves yah - sure, you're a captain.  And to your 
    Uncle Herbie.  To them all, your're a captain.
    But, believe me son.  To a captain, you ain't no captain.'
