and i am going to post this again, and if he deletes it this time i will drive to cali this weekend and whoop his old a**..

everybody is thankful for alot of things, which i am also for a million things in my life. dont need to list them all, not that important to you guys, there is one person that i am grewatful that i have meet this year and that is ralphy boy. you guys know him...i think ol' ralph is a pretty good dude.. i hope to spend more time with him and his family at the water this year. when i seen ralph at the races at blue water this year he stopped to shake my hand as he was going by to go retrieve the broken race boat he was involved with..i had no idea at the time he was headed to the launch ramp to help get the boat on the trailer and i yelled out hey ralph as he went by and he stopped to say hi and shake my hand..

that right there tells me the character of a man and a friend. so with that said ralphy boy. hope you and your family had a merry x-mas and a great new year to come. also roxy...

remember if you delete this time, i will drive over and whoop your a**, first we will have a couple beers together and probably a nap at our ages...

I have only met a handful of the peeps here face to face.   I feel like I "know" quite a few others just by word of mouth or from what they post.  In the past year I remember a thread where guys built a motor for a guy down on his luck and I think there was talk of building a "SCJB.com" boat that could be used by any member when their own float was broke.   Not sure if that actually happened but I wouldn't be surprised if it does come to pass in the future.

I'm just sayin' that I would go to war with any of you.   All of you are real cool people in my book.  

no worries ralph, i am really trying to make it happen, and i hope to see ya there bro..i might bring the jet home from the river to vegas and then haul it to so-cal for this deal..

I'm sure there are a lot of people that haven't had the chance to see that beautiful boat in person that would enjoy having it there.

Hope to see you there
