Hey JB - You know we're just funnin', doncha? Besides having a boat in the driveway and no jing means no fun. Keep the job to pay for a fix and float. :D Or a float, fix and re-float. :redface: Repeat as necessary. :mad:

Yeah, ya'lls keeps me on my toes.:D I'm ok w/ that. Don't get to give a little grief if I can't take a little, or sometimes alot. When those who come after us in way off 2112 read this tome, I don't want 'em thinking I didn't go out w/out a fight!:eek:

Reminds me, I didn't mean to be holding out:

Little better look at the Johnson Selectric

I'll try just about anything to get this SC home. So....

Oh great, wonderful, full of power & might SC spirit shine a little light on this humble tinny owner & help me find a way to bring my tinny home, sooner rather then later.

Yeah, I wish, I limit up on comp time every week 1st, with tight budgets & all. But it is money headed this way at some point. I still have 2010 vaca days I never took.:facepalm: Plus the 2011, and the 2wks through July 1, and 2.5yrs of personal & sick time.

Carp I should own this outfit...

Gotta remember that their all boats: wood, tin & glass alike.

Hey is this the social work forum? I may have gotten lost on the way in...

Thanks, tip for the future, don't search ebay just before lunch at work the day you leave for a week out of town. And for sure don't make an ebay 'best offer', & reply before the 48hr window runs down some (mostly).

It'll get here

Finally got the courage and the proper safety gear donned to visit this strange and unusual land of floating tin and what do I find???...

Nothing, Nada, Nought, Zip, Zilch, Zero...Maybe it's true what they say...floating metal is just a fantasy, just like those new-fangled heavier than air things that are actually supposed to fly...Yeah, Right..., and water is supposed to turn hard when it gets too cold...:rolleyes:

I feel so cheated...:facepalm:

Don't worry, I don't believe any of Cheapboatkev's purchases either until they're in his driveway. :eek: :p:p:p:


How about the backyard?

Command center, do you copy..

jb's been I.d.ed down in the Starcraft owners forum and he's taken on some fire.... It's getting pretty hot in there with the natives and I'm not sure how much longer he can hold out.... Im picking up some mob chants over radio (something about itchy bastard...sacrifice a glasser)..,,,Were gonna need an airlift in there stat to take him back to the dry dock....

Jb, don't worry...you've done us proud and gathered some good intelligence..., no man left behind....
----------------//////



P.s. do you guys want to grab some pizza and beer while we wait????

Re: Starcraft I'll try & splash quick, once I get it home!

I'd gladly fund the pizza & beer while the wait drags on. The wait continues, but from afar.....

What I need is an army of minions to do my bidding:rolleyes:

Low cost minions of course, lodging & food will be covered. BYOB!!

To be clear, let me say it again: BYOB!!!

Sorry, who could afford an open bar w/ this crowd? Unless we can get a home brewer to hit the road w/ a mobile setup & come up to help. That'd be the ticket for sure!

I can take the heat for a while longer. These will not flame out & fade from the forum. Sorry to disappoint...:D

Welcome to our club.
Not to sure if the 74's had that logo.
Late 60's for sure but others may know better.

My 74 holiday 18' did not have that kind of logo.

1 or 2? Oh carp, this is going to be a big crowd..... Or a long wait. I hope neither...... Out for another day & a half, but still checking in, just not as often. How big is the pizza going to be that goes with this tanker of beer? Yikes...... This is going to be a pricey wait....

Hence why you need to use some of the comp time you mentioned and pick her up! :)
