Isn't the economy in a death spiral? I don't understand how the hell I am kicking so much *** in the marine industry in <b>February</b> selling luxury items that nobody really <i>needs.</i>

I can gauge how we are doing by how many boxes come off the UPS truck. The driver almost seems annoyed with me lately.

I think I might have one to celebrate:

Glad to hear business is on the up-and-up...those that can afford a yacht aren't anywhere near struggling.

Enjoy it while you can!! There's lots of suffering going on out there (especially in the autos)

Default I was thinking back to that day the you and Tony and me had lunch at Chick & Ruth's in Annapolis

At the time I was at my wits end with Corporate America and talked to you guys out of my *** about starting a marine business. My focus at the time was in opening a full service PWC/Jetboat store. I'm glad I decided to go in another direction. I like my customers better than the typical PWC owner and I like this line of business much better. I think the PWC market probably is decimated by now too as i'm sure most sales are based on silly financing options that put the buyer upside down as they hitch the trailer to their car.

Oh, and here you go. Easier to just have you print it than slow-*** snail mail.

Default Mmm, C&R's milkshakes.

Yup, seemed like just a few months ago. We'll have to do a cruise and stopoff downtown sometime this summer...again.

Yep, I remember that day - loved that place. We should do it again. I think you paid the bill that time. This time it will be




Tony's turn. P
