Just got back from running all 3 stops. Only used 3 quarts of oil this time. Apparently all that GOOP on the front of the enigine is starting to hold back the floodwaters. I am putting some more on tomorrow.

Stops are

1. My dads boat dock on the north side of the bridge. Everyone that has been there knows that it is safe. ( water is no less than 5' under the keel and I just backed the drives over all of the hydrilla so it is safe) I will make a map for those of you who don't know where it is.

2. Del lago. Boatman22's buddy will work that stop. He is in charge of the marina right now while no one wants to use it. You just have to go by the dock like olds times, go past the pump and make a u-turn. I was within 5' of the bank on the way out and the depth guage never read under 4'

3. Bella Vida. Don't know who is going to work that????? - Lefty- can you get the se.xcretary to go out there. Everything was fine during the TOPPS run, so I don't know why it wouldn't be now.

Technically the odds stay the same. If everyone was planning on $200 and I divide it to 50. everyone that was going to play, still plays, they just get 4 chances to make a good hand. But, so do you.

The only negative is that now a cheapazz that is going to only buy the $50 now technically has the same chance to pull a winning hand as you do. If you remember from 5th grade, the law of probability still stays the same because everyone is reaching into the same bucket, and it is a bigger pain in the azz.

I will make a decision on the hands tonight and get back to ya'll.

We will play Tom's way though and reach into a single deck bucket and return the cards and shake it up after each pull.

I see that being a much smaller pain in the azz.

WHATEVER YALL DECIDE TO DO IM IN FOR MY 200 SO JUST LET ME KNOW:party-smiley-020:

OK everybody wants an extra chance so I came up with this.

What about a free hand. We will give out chips at the stops #'d from 1-300, or however high we need to cover the hands. under 100 hands. 300 chips is sufficients. I am betting we have less than 50 hands, so I will start with 150.

Each hand pulls a chip at each stop. when you show up to pull your cards, you put your chips into the pot.

Each hand should have 3 chips. We will audit this to coincide with your recipt card.

After all hands have been pulled and posted, we will draw the winning chip out of the pot and that person gets to pull a new hand. You can have a designated puller if you don't feel lucky.

Change that. Everyone will write their name on the chips so I don't have to number them.

Thank you for your 1 post today.....we look forward to hear from you tomorrow....thanks again:cool-smiley-011: :cool-smiley-011:

Ditto :D

How many have you finished????:party-smiley-048:

I saw that a few weeks back but it was at 69k so i just keot on going. Chit its almost in my price range now:cool-smiley-011:

Hey SPK do you know anything about abbco(spelling?)

We have a guy that uses the stuff to clean our store signs adnits made for vinyl. He gave me a sample to try out on the boat seats and it worked great. Its like 98.00 a gallon. What can you tell us about it.

It's at american yacht sales, the repo place. Just go make them an offer and they might take it, depending on how bad the bank wants it gone.

so what is the excuse on why this one can't be bought?

I saw that one also i just don't like the lines. I really don't want a boat with a windshield.

Thats why im leaning towards the active thunders and sonics.
any other questions:)

What's the square route of 583284503049030???????

Sure wish these were for sale when I was buying engines.

Deal of the year.

still would not be faster than Smooth:cool-smiley-027: :cool-smiley-027:

Maybe so, Maybe no, But I can stand up in my cabin

I don't know what you do in your cabin.......but everything I do requires laying down:cool-smiley-011: :cool-smiley-011:

Must be pretty boring sex:p

What do you lie on? :greenchainsaw: The tools, lumber, wet moldy carpet, sink,

Last time I looked there was no cabin, only what used to be the cabin.

Better not put it back or smooth might not be so fast anymore.

I will let you ask my girl on Sunday that question......:cool-smiley-011: :cool-smiley-011:

I may need to show your new neighbor what we lie on......since we all know you can not close that deal.....:cool-smiley-027: :cool-smiley-027:

I can't close an automatic door, but that is off the topic. You are trying to change the subject.

You gave a TxLefty response before.....if you want to play I will be your Huckleberry:cool-smiley-027: :cool-smiley-027:


since we are off topic....will they be there on Sunday?

She said she is planning on it, but she is about as reliable as my boat :hitfan:

That is the kind of luck I usually have with women.

the boat has been runnin good .....maybe your luck has changed

I was just about to say your boat has been pretty reliable lately.

ffffffuuuuuuu((((((kkkkkkkk it should be as much money I have dumped in it.....money pit....it would be cheaper to own a Ferrari:cool-smiley-011:

Still can't run it over 3500rpm's :throw:

I am putting more GOO on the oil leak this afternoon, But now I have a problem with it cutting out around 3900-4200. I am going to check the filter and rebuid the card, but it acts like I have a lobe flattened on the cam.

Runs like a workhorse at 35-3600 and below.

If I can't get it fixed before Sunday, I am going to put those big Azz cruiser props on it so I don't have to turn any rpm's

Magnum PI never had a Scarab though.

:violent040:

no.....but Crockett had both:cool-smiley-011: :cool-smiley-011:

AHHH Right you are :cool:

Why not just drop those 454 in it????

ok guys we need 639 post by sunday.
