Aaron, as we discussed briefly, the props I have are 20x21- 1 1/4.
They are at the machine shop being baked to clean up. I'll get the pics up when I get them back.

We just expect you to do some cruising this summer. Can't be a dock queen forever. :wink:

i know what he meant, and that there was absolutely no real meaning, hidden or other wise, i just could NOT resist the comeback i posted. hell, if anything, it shows the forum that i can keep up with the best and worst.
he's a good sport and i treasure the camaraderie. and i do mean that with all sincerity.

Paul, two things come to mind.

Dock Queen or something similar, is your saying...I got it from you! :D :D
And, he'd have to catch up to me first, to wake the heck out of me! :wink: :wink:

OOOOOHHHHHHHH REALLY!!? <<he said with a voice of disdain.>> i believe the the term was 'ss pier sitter' and that was coined by allen sr. paul, (use accent from ricky ricardo).... "JU GOT SOME 'SPLANIN TO DO"
and jamie, rest assure i have no desire to 'wake anyone.' it wastes too much fuel. and yeah, you're boat is lighter than mine and have no preconceived notions that i could ever catch up to you if you were running at the red line.

And I thought I was the only grown-up who wears 30 inch jeans with a belt. What is a modified 6 pack please? Is that like a 6 pack with two missing?

well, let's just say that i have a swimmers/gymnasts build. i wear an 'athletic cut' blazer. when i was fitted for the new uniform shirts and jackets, the fitters were beside themselves. i have a 39'' chest and 28'' waist. that's a v-shape drop of 11'' from shoulders to waist and they had to modify my jackets and shirts so that they fit properly. as a matter of fact, i can still wear my israeli airforce flight suit and my old eastern airlines uniform trousers (double pleated thank you very much) and my double breast blazer. as for the 6 pack, let's just say that every thing in 'that area' tapers where it should. one day last summer i was washing the boat in my IDF running shorts and 3 of the women a few slips away... mike, if you're on here, it was glo,shannon and jackie..... gave me some very complimentary remarks. :) i'd post a pic,but i'm afraid i'd get cited for solicitation. ggggrrrrrrrrrr !!!!!!!! . what can i say. for an old fart of 51, i think i look okay. especially with a modified high and tight hair cut.

So Aaron, basically you're telling us that you can probably swim 20 laps, then go and perform a double back flip on the parallel bars and still land on both feet, a shoulder width apart...? :roll: :lol: :lol:

Impressive... :wink:

i used to. but in my last year of gymnastics (college) i dislocated my right shoulder. rotator cuff problems to this day. that and a bruised hamstring from playing australian rules football in baltimore (i was a centre half forward) from 1999-2005. but, i still maintain my physique. i try to get to the gym 4 times a week. i'm hardly standing still at work and i've got a boat, a lawn and a high spirited boston terrier i have to keep up with. when i was a couch slug last week w/ a sinus infection, this house fell to pieces. and no, phil was NO help at all...... :evil: :evil:

Ok, now I am totally confused. You troll the pier for cougars in your skimpy running shorts?Does Phil know?

I can kind of relate I guess. I have one here I call Milfy Mary who is always asking if I can come over and help with something. If I wasn't scared of her construction worker husband I might go see exactly what kind of weed whacking she has been talking about. :shock:

lol... i don't troll. let's just say that they were 'rather impressed'. i normally don't wear those running shorts at the marina. just a pair of bdu type hiking shorts. this was an unusual circumstance. and as for phil, well, it's been 16 years.... nuff said. :oops: and this thread is really nose diving quickly..... 8)
