Ah ha... now the true personalities come rushing to the surface.

I really thought Scott would try a little harder and a little longer.

I didn't.... and he didn't disappoint me.

Would you say that your actions here in the past helped "improve" the
atmosphere here?


Doesn't matter anymore... We all have a clean slate, well, except for
you now I guess...;)


What do you think the intentions are of someone who logs on with that
handle and trolls, Tosk? Why encourage them by responding at all?


I will see how things go for now... Back to that boat, wtf can it
hurt... I mean, who here could snipe at a brand new boat, and if they
do.. well, you know where they are coming from.


However, if you decide to post some pix (shed some skin for the group) I
will join your boycott (shed some skin too)...


No photos, for several reasons. including, but not limited to, this one:

First, for the next three weeks or so, the boat is being slipped at a
local marina with easy public access, and considering the short tempers
and other negative personality traits of some of the posters here, it
could easily become a target for being "sniped" or worse, as it were.

If I see you on the waterways, I'll wave.- Hide quoted text -

Fair enough I guess. but I would think you could at least show some
closeups of the dash or something that wouldn't leave you too
identifyable...


Your **** is really getting old, Scott.

True. But, since she's not into fishing, and as I often take the kids out while
she's at work, I've got to be able to do this on my own. I'll have her take
ownership of a checklist which includes my boo-boos.

I never move the trailer without going through a routine, my daughter
(or whoever the co-pilot is at the time) is required to do it too. I
touch the seat and start to do the "walk around" looking under the tires
and vehicle for left or otherwise undesirable items, situations.. I
check the plug on the trailer and make sure the locks and chains are in
place. I look up at the running lights and move to the back of the
trailer. Check the locks and continue around looking at tires, and up
top for gear or whatever, same around the front of the truck and back in
the drivers seat. Every time, even if I am just stopping for gas...
Would have left my spectacles on the trailer fender last week if I
didn't do this...


Ditto on the trailer. The problem is remembering the boat electronics problems.

Don't you have anything useful to do, little boy, besides crapping up
this newsgroup with your ID Spoofing? Surely there is a little girl
somewhere you can try to beat up, or maybe you can pull the wings off of
flies.

It's wonderful that your hero Tosk provided a pattern of useful behavior
for you to follow.

Ah, See that? It was only a matter of time before you joined in the
crap. Just another hypocrite in a long line of hypocrites. Welcome to
rec.boats, Paul.

I had him pinned since day one...


Serious question, Mr. Tosk. Are you bipolar? Your "shifts" here are so
sudden I'm thinking you might be. If you are, it explains a lot. My
older sister is bi-polar but has learned over the years to better
control her mood swings because she wanted to, because she had a good
talk therapist and because of some meds. Your wildly swinging behavior
here reminds me of how my sister behaved before she got herself under
control.


Another elitist prick...plonk condescending *******, hope I am not
paying your salary...


I'm simply interested in why you swing back and forth so wildly in your
mood and actions/reactions and sometimes on the same day. You're polite
and reasonable one minute and then shortly thereafter, you're just the
opposite. Pretty wild mood swings. There's nothing elitist or
condescending about the inquiry. As I stated, my sister is bipolar, so I
have some familiarity with some of the symptoms.

And you're back to the mad, name-calling Mr. Tosk again.

Yeah, like the battery switch I had installed in case I left something on, or
accidentally hit a switch. But then I forgot to turn the battery switch off. I
was probably distracted by my wife. Maybe. Sounds good anyway.

I have had problems remembering basic things since I was a youngster, so
I have some "systems" to remind me not to forget the basics.
I keep my boat keys in the car (I have actually forgotten the boat keys
at home after driving an hour to the boat). I have a note I keep on the
boat keys while they are in the car, when I get the boat keys, I
transfer it to my car keys. The note reminds me to turn off the Perko
Switch. I can't use the car keys without seeing the note. After I turn
off the Perko Switch, I transfer the note to the boat keys, that I keep
in the car.

I also have a clip that I place on my Boat Steering Wheel after
winterizing the engine, to remind me to replace plugs before starting
the motor in the spring time.

I have never forgotten to install the engine plugs, but I know a lot of
people who have. I did forget the Perko Switch a number of times before
coming up with my current system.
