Alot of people are getting their invites, and joining. Glad to see you all.
Just want to ask, who knew this was coming??
Did any of you suspect something was up?
There were several of us guilty about throwing out hints at the old site. Did anyone pick up on them, or are you only realizing now if you go back over there how SERIOUS we were??

Dude! Sweet!
10-20-2008, 08:08 PM
Clueless, but I've been distracted lately. Good on you guys!

OK OK I will admit I let a few hints slip, But it appears that nobody caught on

It's actually kinda funny to go over and put "serious" in the search bar :D

BY U BOY
10-20-2008, 09:27 PM
Yeah I was suprised that no one caught on.I mean seriously:biggrinjester:

I think serious was used about 500 times in one thread:rofl:

Good, that was at least my intention - not tomake it obvious, but if you go back, some of it should smack ya on the forehead.
Welcome my friends.
This will be fun.
Big thanks to Chris for putting this all together, and I'm just glad to be a part of it.

Not sure how I knew about this. I think Chris and I traded a couple PMs about the weekend at Kelleys Island and it got brought up.

Not me...how do you load a custom avatar?

resize any pic from your computer to 150x150 and note where it is. From cp panel browse and select. You may need some thing like paint shop pro or the likes. The other way is from a pic gallery site. You will still have to size it.

I have known for a little while, but completely lost track with all the problems Hurricane Ike has brought me. Have to move my business next week into a new building that has neither electricity or phone service, hell they haven't even finished painting the interior walls, let alone carpet.

The electric company keeps saying new construction is the bottom of their list.:(

I saw the hints, but didn't have a clue what it was about. I honestly thought there were some "serious" changes that were gonna be made there that everyone was trying to hype up. I did find it odd that that many people would know about some future behind the scene changes being made there.

heard nothing :bigear: saw nothing :huh: I was at Kelly's and still had no clue, heck I did not even remember meeting Chris that weekend:ack2: I can't believe Racegirl and Chief did not spill the beans but I guess they knew I could not keep a secret, speaking of that, the weekend following Kelly's Island, Fundraiser rode around on our boat all day and he said nada either. Jeeze I guess I should be glad I got the invite.

Considering I've seen Chris' wrath taken out on people because they phucked one of his buddies...
He's certainly a guy I want on my side, I'm not going to do anything to pizz him off.

I honestly don't think we knew about it until after we got back from Labor Day. I really don't remember. I do remember being told to be quiet about it, so I do that when asked.

Don't feel bad sweetie...you're here with us now!

A) Guy rides around in your boat all day and really enjoyed you and Ian.

B) Guy only gives out two invites and one is to you.

C) It was a really nice invite.:kiss:

We could talk about it or we could do it. If we spent a bunch of time on big talk and hype, it would have taken away from actually being able to work on it. It also would have given people time to preconceive notions about what it was going to be. We'd have probably been nit-picked to death before we ever launched. It was much easier to be able to say "Here it is. How do you like it?"

But I know the guys that are serious about this old school stuff. Not that this place is "Old-School" classics, but I think it has a feel that you have to have a love for the history that got us to where we are today.
And if you are into the History, an the old-school, you'll find both this and the new stuff here.

Ok... because I was really glad to be able to invite you. I knew that you were getting tired of "all the offshore sites" and there was a time that I was dying to tell you. Hopefully Serious Offshore will provide a strong enough platform and network base that an offshore boater can stop by here and know what is going on.

you are right there are not enough hours in the day to check all the sites, and still earn a living:willy_nilly: I am hoping this site will prove to be popular enough that I don't have to check other places.
