Memeber's Ages - Professions
 
Maybe this thread has been started before (I am relatively new to the board) but I thought it would be cool to know peoples ages and what they do for a living....you could also add what kind of boat you have!!:D

I am 24, semi-single (Playa):cool:

As per my board name I have a 98' Baja 24 Outlaw. (FOR SALE)

I am trying desperately to move up to between 32' to 40' Baja

I just purchased a 2002 GMC Topkick Crew Cab Hauler.
(Pic Link)

I am in management in the Digital Center for the John Henry Corporation (Large Printing Company)

I also own a Golf Cart Dealership that I operate during the summer months.

I know some of this info is in the member profile section :rolleyes: but I thought it would be easier for people to find out about each other on a thread!! :p

HyperBaja 09-24-2002 08:35 PM

People who think travis is young:
i am younger, 15 to be exact. the answer to your question about how i boat so often is because of the season dock.

job- hate it, working at the marina restaurant (btw, i live within walking distance to it)

hope to get a Donzi 16 or 18 classic soon even though my dad says if i buy a boat i will need to move out (he dosent live here so he will never know :) )

family-parents who seperated in february, 2 younger sisters, 2 dogs, and my moms iguana.

tow vehicle-hope to never need one which means having a big enough boat to tackle the Atlantic seas! but my parents are pretty sure i am buying their 93 thunderbird from them which pulled the baja no problem till we got a van.

girlfriend, but im pretty sure she will break up with me on sunday, after homecoming sat night.

i guess thats it, any more q's, on aol its HyperBaja17

Hi, my name is Kevin and I'm a phknlwyr. (Hi Kevin)

I've been a phknlwyr for 6 years now, following 3 years of law school which were preceeded by the best four year vacation I'll ever have: college at the Univeristy of Wisconsin-Madison!

I don't play well with others so I have my own law firm. I'm a housing relocation specialist ( I evict deadbeat tenants).

I can't get a boat until the wife gets a new kitchen but I travel to Miami alot and sniff tailpipes at TNT to get my fix.

Sixth anniversary is coming up this Thanksgiving. She is a phknlwyr too and worked at the SEC chasing greedy CEO's until I knocked her up four years ago. Three girls, ages 3.75, 15 months and 2 days. In twelve years, when all the women of the house are cycling once a month, shoot me please.
