Let the excuses begin..... <cough>

[Hellbent]

So Paul....I was having a conversation about the status of your boats with a mutual 'friend' this weekend and I'm curious to hear why the Black Thunder isn't in the water?!?!

[Bobcat]

:iagree:

[Pete B]

and what is your story Bobcat, 2 years in a row in KW your boat, was in a Down, NON-MISSION Capable Status!

[Ratickle]

Mutual friend keeps working on his quad beast instead of helping his friend (me).....:)

[Bobcat]

Ahem....lets keep focused Pete.......this thread is about Paul:leaving:

[Ratickle]

I was on the phone with Jeff while you were out running. Any pics to start a thread with?????


How'd it do????

[Hellbent]

You're not changing the subject that easily....lol. Our friend says all you need to do is get it up there. I'd be happy to join in the festivities....I'll bring the beer.

[Ratickle]

Ahem....lets keep focused Pete.......this thread is about Paul:leaving:

Oh, and we had to spend all my finish-it-up money on a charter boat in Key West because Bobcat's wasn't up to the task!!!!!

[Hellbent]

lol....you're deflecting!!

[Pete B]

Oh, and we had to spend all my finish-it-up money on a charter boat in Key West because Bobcat's wasn't up to the task!!!!!

2 years in a row at that!

[Bobcat]

A shameful act of transference..:(

[Ratickle]

An awesome act of transference..:)

Fixed it for ya.....:sifone:

[Bobcat]

Skirting the question will only bring shame and humiliation to the boating community at large....:eek:

You are right. The "industry" has too long been harmed by question skirters. We need to attack the question skirters and all who enable them. It doesn't matter who gets hurt. Innocents be damned. Any and all individuals who are within 50 miles of a question skirter must go under the bus for the greater good of the "sport." Doesn't matter if they are a question skirter. What matters is that we win, at any and all cost to friendships. Proximity equals guilt. Failure to attack a skirter equals conspiracy to skirt. Scorch the Earth if we must, but we must save the "industry" before the "integrity" of the "industry" is further harmed by skirters and people who enable skirty behavior. (Insert Howard Dean scream here.)

I love skirts....and sun dresses ;)

But back to Paul's excuses.....

Mr. Paul, I believe the only thing that's kept the Black Thunder in dry dock for 5 years is the exhaust. ("Holy crap, has it been 5 years already?" you may ask yourself) Would you consider this to be a true statement? If so, would you agree that all it would take to fix said exhaust is a little fiberglass/plug work performed by a experienced craftsman? And would you also agree that a friend of ours just so happens to have a very experienced and capable craftsman on staff?

I anxiously await your thorough response....

[Ratickle]

Naw, it's a lot more than that.:) If that were the only thing, we have a couple guys on here who would swing by and do it here at the house.

[Hellbent]

Please provide a list for us to ponder....

[Bobcat]

Well I waaaaas going to finish my boat today but....

Please provide a list for us to ponder....

Obama got elected and the economy went to ratcrap.....

[Ratickle]

Obama got elected and the price of gas doubled.....

[Ratickle]

Obama got elected and now they want catalytic converters on boats......

[Ratickle]

Obama got elected and now they want all boats to be as quiet as church mice...



Oops, is it okay to still say church?????

[Pete B]

[Offshore Ginger]

Please provide a list for us to ponder.... I agree , and to tell you the truth maybe you just might want to mention those guys who are willing to swing by the house..................because i really am curious , and .................................

[Offshore Ginger]

Did we just see ANGRY PAUL!!!!:sifone: Are you kidding ..................................... or does the man get his shorts in a bunch ....every once in a...while...........Ha Ha Ha .

The real reason that Osama... Whoops, I mean Obama didn't release his birth certificate:
-He LOVES to apologize.
-He LOVES to get into other people's business.
-He solves problems that he is not involved with over beers.
-He is a socialist.
-He wants to destroy the health care system.
-He resents those who create wealth.
-He is clueless that the "post" is defunct.

Obviously... he's a freaking CANADIAN!!!!!!

Ineptocracy (in-ep-toc'-ra-cy) - a system of government where the least capable to lead are elected by the least capable of producing, and where the members of society least likely to sustain themselves or succeed, are rewarded with goods and services paid for by the confiscated wealth of a diminishing number of producers.

Well, you'd be really high on that list of guys who would swing by for one.....

Oh so true.......

[fund razor]

Yep.

While I have some issues with that photo.... it's accurate.

[Ratickle]

Oh come on, it's only a little over $5 trillion in three years. What could possibly be wrong with that?????

Dude, you missed a chance to use "hath." Or, in this case, "HATH."

[Bobcat]

I was a Hathaway from a decent post.

By the way, back to the topic of this thread;


I was golfing in tournaments yesterday and today....

[Ratickle]

You also would not believe the struggle over a name for the boat.......

[fund razor]

I am playing in a scramble later this month.
(But I didn't play golf at all during my boat restoration. Just saying.) :D

[Ratickle]

You expect me to believe that???????

I also didn't play while there were more important things to be done ;)

[fund razor]

You expect me to believe that??????? Yes. Unlike most stuff on the internet these days, it's true.

[Bobcat]

:lurk5::lurk5:

[Ratickle]

You saw an un-truth on the internet?????:eek:



Say it ain't so......

[Bobcat]

Oh, and we had to spend all my finish-it-up money on a charter boat in Key West because Bobcat's wasn't up to the task!!!!!

I took the starboard motor prop off my boat today(hopefully spun and not my shaft )...and sent out for a quote for a new 75 gallon fuel tank (1 of 2) So I'd appreciate you guys not comparing me to Paul anymore:reddevil::reddevil:

I also took pics and started an interview with an 80's racer :seeya:
