Ok, so I hope you guys find this funnier than I did. I need a new person to work in the office. I've had an ad in the paper for > 1 week. The ONLY hit I get... was from someone else in MY OFFICE!!!!!

I had my cruiser out there for 10 hours and I get 8 hits.

Talked to some good foilks this pm. If somone local buys it, I at least hope they and it stays around.

I am out for this weekend. I had a huge power surge on the boat and it fried many systems. Also, I want to stick with the family here in Mandeville because of the storm in the gulf. My luck and it would turn into a hurricane and go right over my house. Do you want any more excuses?

Funny indeed...consider yourself lucky that you will have a chance to explore why the person is looking elsewhere and avoid TWO ads in the paper instead of one...

thanks much bud ... but that's crap. If you're looking elswhere... let me help you out the door. We cut her head off w/ a rusty butterknife that day.

She is/was looking b/c naturally, like most immature, young, right out of school young ladies, she thought she should be making more money. (she was still getting above average)...

"Well, you're FRESH out of school (first job), you're not certified and you're part time. When I'm seeing someone and you're sitting on you're fanny studying for you're certification on my nickel and THEN sending out resumes while I train you...." "....ummmm you're fired"


Two ads it shall be.

Thanks anyway!

Sounds great and I appreciate the boat goop! I've yet to throw it on there.. but I will soon. Can't wait. Also was wondering what you recommended to bring the top back to life.

Thanks again

This is my first post, so if I breach protocol, let me know. I have enjoyed meeting you guys after one week of membership. In this short time, I have decided to convince my wife that I need a 40 as a toy, instead of the 100 I have...she has not shut me down yet. You guys have a good trip to AL.

Plating look with paint

Thought some of you might be interested in this link I found it looking for alternative to metal-plating outsourcing. I will try it with products from the Ace hardware paint section...it's all in the metal prep, proper priming, etc. Looks like a quick way to spruce up tired-looking hose clamps, bolts, etc.

http://www.eastwoodco.com/videoplayer/GoldenCad.mov

Let me know if anyone has already tried this and what kind of results you got.

Ricardo

Good thing I have a wife and daughter to keep me from surfing all day. You can kill a lot of time looking at Cruisers online.

You'll find a way to gain more Cruiser looking time. It only gets worse now, especially since you've found MUD.

Welcome

We I visited Marv Specter at SOR, he had quite a collection as well. You can get them from him as well I'm sure, as he had them for sale.
