Snowbound thats where......LOL

 

Haven't heard from him since the last go-a-round in the Canadian thread. I believe there was a *** for tat on another thread too. At any rate I hope he's still with us.

 

Do I miss all the fun?

Thanks HUMPH for the heads up there. Interesting start to the thread anyway. Well now inquiring minds have been informed as to Scooter Wayne's disposition. On a side note though (due to remarks made in the above mention thread) if a person sells their Sea Ray does that mean they shouldn't continue to be a part of the forum? In the short time I have been here it appeared to be a group of people (that had been members for a long time here) that had fun with each other and when someone had a question there was a answer found. In short informative and entertaining
Life brings about changes so if a person reaches a point where they find themselves without a Sea Ray they are still a Sea Ray person at heart and should be treated as such.

 

Here he is......just cruising along.

 

Forgot about that one Ken. Got a little ugly.

 

There was a little "Pissing Match" going on and I think he went into Hibernation!!

 

what was it over?

 

Who is "Scooter Wayne" anyway? What is his/her pseudonym?

Looks like the link is now password protected by the administrator. Anyone know the PW?

 

YES, there definitely is a password, and YES you should be able to locate the clue to the password on the forum home page, YES, for sure, it is there.

 

YES I found it and YES thanks for the direction. I remember that thread, could'nt come up with anything better to add to i, so didn't get involved. Makes for great reading though!LOL

 

How many times do you get a time-out before you are timed out forever?

 

I think just about everyone has been caught in a cross fire at one time or another. Just part of the deal. That one got ulgy quick but no need to leave the island. The administors here know when to pull the plug on someone. IMHO.

 

All is OK, I just ran into a few really deep potholes of life.

As far as GFC goes :smt021. I hope he put me on his ignore list. :smt001

 

Well while I was typing look who reappeared... Hey Wayne.

 

Well, at least this wasn't you:

Well, I wonder who won that one...

 

...was it?

 

No chance. I love to watch drunks stumble around their keyboard and provide us with such lively entertainment.

Being a backstabber that you are, I guess you want/need it !!. :smt021

What is your next move ??.........

Wayne you don't support this site... please leave. :wow:

 

Explain how GFC is backstabbing you so we all understand.

 

Why the ad hominem?

Based off of my interactions with GFC and reading of his posts, I find GFC to be one of the most upstanding members of this forum. He truly has class as well as integrity, honesty, and intellect.

 

Why the ad hominem?

During the winters months, everyone gets a little testy...

 

I'm in the dark here too. I enjoy both's posting. Both have added to the sites character. Hate that this went south for them.

 

Give Wayne a break...he has had a tough time adjusting to his new job...

To clarify what Wayne is referring to:

When I volunteered early this past summer to help a CSR member take a boat from Lake Union in Seattle down to Stockton, CA one of the things we discussed by phone prior to the trip was safety gear. The boat owner assured me (and the other person who had also volunteered to help) that he was going to rent a 4-person life raft for the trip, then return it via truck freight to Seattle when we had reached Stockton.

During the pre-departure discussions I should have asked to see the life raft, but didn't because of the excitement/confusion prior to the next morning's departure My bad.

At some point near the end of the trip, or maybe at the end, the topic of the life raft came up. The boat owner admitted that he had not rented the life raft because (paraphrasing his words) it was too expensive to return it and too much of a hassle.

Both the other volunteer and I felt we'd been lied to and had we known before we departed that there was no life raft, neither of us would have made the trip. To be out on the ocean for several days without a means of saving one's life (IMHO) far outweighs the inconvenience and hassle of returning the lift raft after the trip.

I made mention on CSR of my disappointment and frustration with having been lied to (a lie can be withholding pertinent information as well as giving false information) about the life raft. The other volunteer and I discussed this at length following the trip and I feel confident we both feel the same way. Both of us agreed that we'd make a similar trip together at any time in the future because we trusted each other's judgment but that neither of us would ever take a trip with that boat owner again.

So that's what Wayne is referring to. He apparently feels that by me airing my dirty laundry on CSR I stabbed the boat owner in the back.

Sorry Wayne, but the owner's failure to rent the life raft because it would have inconvenienced him and cost him a few bucks is one thing. Failing to disclose to us that he'd chosen not to rent the life raft and giving us the choice to opt out of the trip was another issue. Both of which, in my mind, were very serious breaches of ethics. I stand by my earlier decision to air my dirty laundry so that others might learn from my failure to ask about the life raft prior to departing.

LTD330, thank you for your comments.

 

So, is this owner the 'Stuart' guy that Wayne mentioned?

 

Good for you, I think your Judgement is Sound and I would have made the same Decision!!

 

Wow.
I did not read about the life raft issue, I must have somehow missed that thread. I am sitting here in some state of mild shock. I was going to ask what a raft outfitted to handle that trip would cost but it really does not matter. I guess lots of people do it, but jeez.

 

and all this time I thougth GFC stole Waynes scooter with his wife on the back, took her to Sturgis for the big ralley and made sweet love to her in their pop-up tent at the campgrounds. :huh:

 

GFC, I'm glad you wrote. Let be a learning experience to everyone. And with out going back to read of the journey, it was a Bayliner correct?:wow:

 

Woody… I would imagine YES ! :grin:
