That is the thread where the guy is trying to sell the $45 underwater lights off of ebay for $200 and trying to pass them off as ocean led. There is no place on the swap shop for fellow OSO members to try and rip each other off. I'm glad someone called that guy out.

July 1st - JASON BOLAND AND THE STRAGGLERS ($10 at door)
July 2nd - THE CHARLIE LUCAS BAND ($5 at door)
July 3rd - CHARLIE MONTAGUE ($5 at door)

Good times at Stroman's/Lefty/Wayland's party last night. No fireworks but plenty of booze.

Wow. Fourth of July weekend gone by and no $hit talking or stories. This thread has definitely gone stale.

I was neither there nor here so I know not of what happened there, nor does anything ever happen here.


Have a good short week gentlemen. :coolcowboy:

Not much happened on my end. I did get the new carpet installed in the cockpit. Totally different and I really like it.

Other then that, we played on the lake on Friday and in the pool on Sat/Sun.

That stuff looks nice. I'm going to have to come by and check it out. About to get my upholstry done and need to cover my Perelli flooring with something softer.

Bring it. I am going to put the cover on tonight if you want to check it out. I went with a beach beige color and a 2" black border around everything. It is the best thing I have done to the exterior in my opinion.

Does anyone have plans for the coming weekend?

Well if you ever lost your day job you could be a poet :evilb:

I plan on finishing the damn wiring and lights at my house hopefully on Friday afternoon. Then, I'm sure I will move on to other fun projects for the house.:angry-smiley-038:I think some tiki bar time would be cool for Friday or Saturday night. I need to talk to David anyways. One day, in a land far far away from here when my boat is done, I would like to get a slip at inland and put the boat on a lift.:party-smiley-004:

Sounds great. Talk to him now and he will round up a lift for ya. The 1st dock is full so if you put your name on the list now you will not need to worry about it until he kicks someone out.

Looks like we are going to have another marina night tomorrow. Tiki bar @ 5ish and then off to the ping pong palace:)

I will probably be there more around 7 or 8 ish, but i will be there.:drink:

That is like everybody. I am going to get there early and try to get me cable hooked up!

You guys quit bragging about having the good parties while I am gone. Thanks. :lolhit::angry-smiley-038:

Damn man, I thought you were bringing the pineapple express.

Who's coming to the Tiki bar tonight???

Also, Who's going to the TOPPS poker run this month and hasn't RSVPd with shirt sizes?

Get on it biatches!

Good times at the Tiki Bar last night good food and cold beer...

It got pretty wild. Two chicks drove through the back wall from the street behind the marina. dps showed up, David was trying to act all serious while I was in the back ground making comments like, "do I need to secure the perimeter?", or "what do we have here guys?".... All while I had a whiskey in my hand. The officer said to David, "I think your eye whitnesses have had more to drink then the driver"

It was awesome!!!!!

Oh yeah, the trooper was like 7' tall so I called him officer avatar:evilb: after I said, GD You are the tallest f-ing tropper I have ever seen.

Looking back I should have used some airplane lines like, "my dad says you don't try enough on defense, etc". But I digress.

:lolhit::lolhit::lolhit:

Of course fun **** happened, I wasn't there. :bsflag:

Wow, this sucks

Boats Burn In Marina Fire
1 Boat Sinks, 4 Others Damaged

POSTED: Tuesday, July 12, 2011
UPDATED: 9:12 am CDT July 12, 2011

EmailPrintLEAGUE CITY, Texas -- A fire broke out at a League City marina early Tuesday.

The fire broke out in the 2500 block of South Shore Boulevard around midnight.

One of the boats sank, and four other boats were severely damaged.

The cause of the fire is under investigation.

No injuries were reported.

Anything exciting happening this weekend?

The Boat Club annual poker run in Clear Lake 7/16. Calcutta Fri nite at the Hilton.

They should have got a bid from Gregory Performance...

Woodlands CVB approves $240,000 boat renovations

The Woodlands Convention and Visitors Bureau approved a contract with Pro Yacht Management for the refurbishment of the six Waterway Cruisers at a cost of $240,000, or around $40,000 per boat.

Buck Beasley, owner of Pro Yacht, a small business in Kemah established in 1998, outlined improvements to the CVB board Tuesday. The board unanimously approved Pro Yacht as the vendor and needs to complete the contract before work can begin.

CVB President Nick Wolda said the process will be performed two boats at a time and will take about six to eight weeks to complete per pair, depending on the weather. Ideally, Wolda said, the first set of boats could be out of the water by the end of July and the project completed in October in time for the holiday season.

Funding for the project comes from a 1 percent hotel occupancy tax in 2011, budgeted as $500,000 in the 2011 budget. While $180,000 had been budgeted for the refurbishment ($30,000 per boat), Wolda reminded the board that the boats were valued at $800,000 and were donated by The Woodlands Development Company at no cost.

“Our operational goal is to have them in the black in five years,” said Nelda Blair, CVB board member and township director.

Beasley also said it is common for Pro Yacht to be 10-15 percent below the budgeted amount for restoration projects.

Although Beasley said boats similar to the Waterway Cruisers are not normally expected to last beyond five or six years, with the proposed improvements, he believes the boats can last “indefinitely with proper care and maintenance.” He guaranteed the finish on the boats for 10 years based on his recommendation of paints and improvements.

“If you were happy with them right now, wait ’til you see what we’re gonna do to them,” Beasley said of the Waterway Cruisers, which he referred to as “ugly ducklings.”

Among the proposed improvements include the removal of algae from the bottom of the boats, moving the exhaust closer to the water line, painting the hull, the interior and as many as eight coats on the bottom, as well as the installation of a rubber rub railing to absorb the impact of collisions.

Labor costs about $24,000, while materials cost up to $14,000 and removal and return by crane and trucks, as well as storage costs about $3,000.

They did, he was going to do the work for four old video games and some red hair dye but the boats were going to run 151 mph, run on water and dehydrogenated vegatable oil.....

but they were going to have to sail the boats up the San Jacinto river to Hodges house were the restoration was going to take eleventy billion years :) and be done with spare parts from Crap Shoot and Armstrongs Ciggy..... and they only had a ten minute warranty.

If you only knew the truth

Boats were bidded to BigAndy first but they thought the 20 year rebuild time was a little lengthy. They also grew tired of hearing which famous gangsters brothers cousin rode in which seats of each vessel. :evilb:

Fu(k that biatch. They need to fry her arse!:mad:

Its amazing what you will find when you Google "Penis Disposal" of course the question is why was Dr Andy googling that :)

He is a grown ass man and should have thrown her crazy ass out and not still had her making hor deourves for dinner parties with friends six months after filing divorce.... thats what he gets, now he can pee out of his forearm skin the rest of his life...

Now the fuq heads that left toddlers in a 113 degree car to go to fazzoli's need to die, and the Five 50 year old men that were raping and torturing a young handicapped girl on the web and killing animals need to die... wtffffffffffffffff is a matter with the world????

On a happier note, this seems to be a bargain....

rumor has it, he will take less if he can keep the ranchhand stuff and will put factory bumpers on :)

don't forget the crazy A-hole in New York who chopped up the eight year boy who was lost looking for directions...that son of a b!tch needs to die a long painful death....




BTW watched Lincoln lawyer last night...great flick I highly recommend it.
