Heres my lunch that was made for me by my 6 year old daughter Laila out of Play Doh. She made french fries and a CRABBY PATTY from sponge bob square pants, notice the seasame seeds she put on the bun. I asked her if they were asparugus and she got upset with me and said" no daddy there french fries!!" lol!! hey DRAG I see your enjoying a fatty natty.:laugh:

Great shot.....I like to joke about mine that hopefully one day one of them will take care of me when I'm old.

Kracker- My kids love Sponge Bob! That is some serious chef talent right there!! Oh and you know I love me some cold Fatty Nattys!!

RWilson -I tease my oldest all the time that I will be living with he and his family when I'm old and senile, so just get ready!

Reel - Yeah I was surprised to see those numbers. She was really moving, had her trimmed perfectly, little chop. Wish I would have brought my GPS! I should have a little cup added to my prop to bring those numbers down a little and maybe gain a mph or 2! My engine builder is a Merc man. He races them just about every weekend. I told him what I was turning, he said she's built, let her turn!

I hear you on that! Sorry about your Merc, was there any warning? A miss or anything? Lower RPMs? I am paranoid about that... I leaned out one of my Yamahas on my Mako a few years ago and she popped. I had switched tanks, turned one valve off, thought other valve was open. Starved both motors of fuel, but dummy me kept pushing the throttles toward the fiberglass. I finally realized what I did, opened the other valve and had no problems the rest of the way in. The next morning I was idling out, port motor started knocking and that was all she wrote:sad:
