Where's Chip? He hasn't checked in yet.

(wakevb) · (wakevb) **Join Date: Feb 2008** 02-08-2008, 11:22 AM

Chip is a definite lurker!!!! He's scared to create a WW account I think.

(jpminter) · (jpminter) **Join Date: Feb 2008** 02-08-2008, 11:25 AM

There's no way he doesn't have a WW account. I find that hard to believe.

Also, anybody notice in the above photos that Fred is grabbing ever so delicately with just his index and thumb?

(rockledge) · (rockledge) **Join Date: Sep 2005** 02-08-2008, 11:26 AM

He grabs like he is at a tea party.

Very classy and very legit. . .

Wanted to save a post just for you. Welcome brother . . .

Looking back at that photo, I am pretty sure I was on the tube for fred's dainty display . . .

Thanks man. Although you could just be padding your stats.

What's the over under on total posts in this thread by Wednesday of next week? 500? 600?

(rockledge) · (rockledge) **Join Date: Sep 2005** 02-08-2008, 11:35 AM

What I cannot believe is that this thread hasn't been either shut down or completely trounced by the wake elite at this site.

And where is Umali? That dude has definately lurked this thread . . .

checking in

add this to my "other site" stats and I now have 2000 posts.

Alan, where is my boat?

(the_real_spin)

Alan can I finance a boat I am taking out of the country?

Chase, I see a light at the end of the tunnel.

(alans) · (alans) **Join Date: Aug 2005** 02-08-2008, 12:59 PM

Spin, Where are you going? I can't recommend an MB for a trans Atlantic or Pacific journey.

(johnsvt) · (johnsvt) **Join Date: Dec 2006** 02-08-2008, 1:11 PM

Thanks alan, I am actually going to sell my boat then just ride on dan's. I heard he is the new pi*p in town.

(johnsvt) · (johnsvt) **Join Date: Dec 2006** 02-08-2008, 1:13 PM

5-600 will be easy, how many useful post could probably be counted on your two hands.

(dansmith) · (dansmith) **Join Date: Aug 2006** 02-08-2008, 1:15 PM

Wow, 180 posts in a little over 24 hours. Impressive.

Unfortunately, not as impressive as the water temps on the private side. Hovering ~ 60.

Chase, what were Obama's views about the Nuclear Plant maintenance shutdown? Is he going to do something about it? We really need your connections now that rocket's man has dropped out. It can sway my vote...

(the_real_spin) · (the_real_spin) **Join Date: Feb 2008** 02-08-2008, 1:16 PM

Alan, if it happens would be costa rica, possible business venture and would be towing the boat there, or shipping it.

(johnsvt) · (johnsvt) **Join Date: Dec 2006** 02-08-2008, 1:18 PM

I would go in 60 degree water I would consider that warm. Anyone interested sometime soon let me know.

(alans) · (alans) **Join Date: Aug 2005** 02-08-2008, 1:23 PM

Spin, you can do it.

(dansmith) · (dansmith) **Join Date: Aug 2006** 02-08-2008, 1:23 PM

I'm shooting for an early March launch. Once we get another 70 degree day, I'm pulling the boat & riding.

Now reserving spots. jpminter, rocket & Chase have 1st right of refusal. From there, its 1st come 1st served...

Dan

I am there.

Re: Obama - he says the people in this country are interested in change. I can't seem to get him to commit to much beyond that. I cannot imagine how that effects nuclear power plants - I guess that means he is willing to consider turning them back on down there?

(johnsvt) · (johnsvt) **Join Date: Dec 2006** 02-08-2008, 1:35 PM

Who told Fugazi we were here that guy is nothin but trouble.

(slacker) · (slacker) **Join Date: Feb 2008** 02-08-2008, 1:39 PM

I picture him sitting in the post count thread wondering where everyone went . . .

(jpminter) · (jpminter) **Join Date: Feb 2008** 02-08-2008, 1:40 PM

191 posts and not a single one from a non-DCW.

Dan, does that mean I am part of the "crew" finally?

I'd rather stand at the ramp and hitch a pull in a bass boat. The colors are nice though . . .

Dan

Thanks for the link. I believe there is a bias toward MB in this thread so I refuse to say anything about biases, good or bad.

Someone tell me how much time it took Dave williams to find that thread. He must have sent 20 guys over to sift through the carcass of DCwake to find that. I feel sorry for them.

I stand by my comments even though I must have had the wakespace & wake-space websites confused

. I still think my points are valid, but certainly see Dave Williams/fbroen's points as well . . .

Using my right of first refusal for a spot on Dan's B-52 for the March ride when they turn the power back on. That just leaves JP to establish his claim before the other seats can go on sale.

You can contact your local ticketmaster for prices, or just log on to www.ticketmaster/dans_spring_ride/MB/B52.com.

I reserve the right to scalp my seat to the highest bidder.
