PRD, it's not just for the attendee's anymore :( :( :(
Jill and I went over to JRM for a sunset evening cruise last night on the Formula. Man, that place was quiet and empty after seeing it last weekend. The only indication we had been there was Tom's boat description flyer still tied to a post on his slip and flapping the breeze. We left it there. Depressing. And maybe a sign of PRD.
Perhaps PRD effects people in different ways. To Mark's point, maybe a "wink-wink" emoticon would have headed off a PRD-fueled outburst. Me? I just remember and smile, and maybe poke a little fun to keep the flames going. One must work through their PRD symptoms.
You want to talk about a PRD hangover, you should see what these drive parts cost, and for a freshly re-rigged boat.
good times!
seriously, what?
as a silent partner in the hawk brotherhood I can say that I have not had a better time boycotting something than i did at the ralley
Granted we were a little saddened at the choice of a feature boat because of our pure determination last year to make this our year, and not a generic "make everyone happy" Classic 22
Apparently we had to get the right recruit to lobby for our cause because at least we did win the custom division- which we all take pride in (not exactly the same boat but we feel the heart is there)
back to the thread
-if you leave the roof off a jeep you need to find the drain holes after a bit off a rain
-buying 2 new motors doesn't mean that you won't have to spend 3 hours listen to canadians tell stories
-if you miss your ride at the raft off you just keep moving down the line
-if you have a cigarette boat you had better expect the tallest person at the event to think you have missletoe attached to the back of your belt
-62 steps to the top is way better than the regular 71
-don't stand right beside or behind gero in case she has a high power rifle that will go all the way through the first person
- you can always count on your buddies to not take advantage of a situation if they think it will bother you
- and the oscar goes to............
-being the unofficial boat of the year is almost as much fun
- center consoles "shouldn't" roll over, haven't yet anyways..........
- "no problem i will get the tools"...." hey look turtles!"........
-it sure is nice to fly back into a friendly country at the end of it all
apparently, I can't read between the lines very good.. :force:
with that said..
what happened to Mark's boat? :banghead:
&nbst;
who boycotted what, and why? :spin:
new sandbagger titles? say it isn't so... :mrgreen:
okay, spill the beans
May I borrow the special decoder ring once you are finished with it Jim?
Ya had to be there, or else you had better be there next year cause that's the only way you get the secret decoder ring... :grin:
Many many thanks to Russ for going above and beyond, thats the spirit that got me into this rather psychotic family, that's what keeps me here..
do we not have a picture of the boycotting shirt?

But I also dog them, and dog them good. Even though, I know I have no chance when they really spool up. Phil is still ranting at me about being a "sandbagger" after surprising him on the run-what-you-brung portion of the fun rally. At this point, he thinks I run a lot stronger than I do. And this is after, he described his new engine, as an "intake manifold" change when I saw it in the parking lot. All in fun. All good.
So yes, if it is "mistle-toe", I am good with it. Last winter, Phil created some drive pieces that I was able to cobble together and use on my broken beast this past weekend, and without it my boat would have sat on the trailer. He has also contributed in a big way to the auction in the past two years. Tom A and Rick M both brought very, very nice rides this year, and are the nicest guys you could ever talk to. Shut up and listen, and Mike Lip and Charlie will also reveal a few secrets.
So Shea, here is my challenge to you and the Blackhawk Pride, bring a boat next year, and you try to run with these guys. Afterall, most of them are running a Blackhawk drive, so aren't they in fact, Blackhawk brothers with you? You will be humbled I promise that, because these guys back-up their bling, but you might learn a thing or two in the process, just as I have.
Bring it, if you got it, or sit on the porch and whimper like a puppy. I'll take all of the heat in the world for the Cig guys.... our run has a whole different dimension when they show up.
BTW, this has got to be the first time there has been more trash talk AFTER a rally, than before, that I can remember. For those feeling a little bruised, suck it up.
Here you go.Quote:

One thing is for sure....if you are not there....you won't get most of these...even if you had a decoder ring
Enjoy this moment, I am speechless on what happened to me there .I never knew how many friends i had.many friends I really had.. Thanks soooo much
