He is talking about my boat he thinks I live in Virginia near Joel,I only wish the boat went 114 but I think any 320 going any faster than what I am will blow over like an Allison or swap ends and barrell roll and if someone is really going that fast in a 320,more power to them they have a death wish for sure.:eek:

If anyone did 114 you can bet they had the fat girl in the front.

We got the retaining wall poured on the parking lot today, should pour slap tomorrow. That cement work is hard work. My little old lady neighbor just loves me to death, she thinks my wall that is ground level on the outer edge is going to flood her out.:nhl_fight: I finally told her don't worry if the water gets to high we got a boat I'll get you out!

My offshore drilling days are over I practically lived out there for my first 8 years in the patch, one of my son's did have to evacuate out of Port Aransas. I worked when oil was $9.00 a BL. so I'm good for awhile plus I have a couple of 900 numbers bringing in the sheep.:evilb:

Almost forgot my daughter wrecked another car yesterday, Everyone just fine no other cars involved, no ticket. I decided the camaro was a little much for her so I bought her a Ford Focus 4 banger, 5 speed trans 4 door 35 mpg. I'm here to tell you this car is only about 3 weeks old 2008. The storie; puppy ran out in front of me and she swerved to miss it, ran over a 14" curb head on and took the front end out in a 30 MPH wreck. Both air bags deployed the passenger air bag cracked out the windshied, can't open the passenger door, even the top of the car had dents in it. It wasn't my falt Daddy I just couldn't run that pour little puppy over. Cry / cry/ cry Cry / cry/ cry Cry / cry/ cry. I guess I'll get on ebay and get her a tank of some sort.

Bill, that's one he!! of a sales pitch. Should bring the buyers to Delaware with buckets full of cash.

BTW, an Allison is just fine at speeds like that, some even faster. :cool:

Used to run 110 in my 30ft if the water was right .:cool-smiley-011:

There is a 260 in Virginia running 113
