OOH this is good.....

Ok, so at the big Keyport, NJ Municipal ramp, coming in on my V21 with my son.

One boat ahead of us, guy is trying to power drive his boat up onto his bunk trailer.
Well, he keeps missing, left, then right, and losing his temper.

My son and I are standing on the dock, next to our boat.
I say to my son ( 19) " watch -this is how a grown man should NOT behave"

The guy reverses his boat again and again, each time running and gunning.
He screams at his friend who apparently made a suggestion.
Finally rams his boat onto the trailer, and pulls up.

Lessons for my son:
1. Don't lose control
2. When dealing with a problem....slow down.....take your time, be careful.

Guy last week told me I should use the right side of a ramp because it was available.
( tide running hard - no good )
I said no thanks, I'll wait..........and he walked away angry, muttering, spitting in the street.

Boat ramp on a busy day - lot's of interesting behavior.

Good job CTT, you handled that perfectly in front of your boy, proud of you.

Some folks have no couth.

Hmmm... Not a big fan of Mr Sandler......although I did find his movies Mr. Deeds and Happy Gilmore entertaining. (At least he's not as bad as Will Ferrell, so I guess that's something).

We can agree on that one! Oh how I hate Will Ferrel........ would GLADLY give up Sandler if it meant Ferrel would go with him!

Btw Had my own ramp story from the other day... was backing my jetskis between one of thos gofast boats and the dock.. it was just a little tight but not bad... still had a few feet between us but the guy's kid, maybe 19 comes running up yelling STOP STOP... HEY STOP!!! HEY HEY STOP!!!!!..... He was FRANTIC, looking at my trailer and daddy's boat and even started to get a mean tone in his voice... I was in my Jeep with the window down and I just kept slowly backing down the ramp and said "calm down junior, it'll be OK" with a gentle tone...... I got back to the water and got out.... Daddy was looking at me with just a hint of stinkeye, so I said with a smile "I think I scared your boy there, he seemed pretty excited" The whole mood changed and daddy started laughing and said "yeah he got worked up a bit. BTW I'm 6'4" 235 lbs myself... Not golden gloves or anything but not exactly a pushover either...

He USED to rock. First few movies were great then he went all sappy and sucky.....

You gonna tell me "Jack and Jill" rocked Smoke?:you:

haven't seen it... in fact never even heard of it....

Guess I'm out dated

So it's not just me? I never understood his fan draw. The first time I same him was when he did that cheer-leading skit on SNL. That turned me off for good.

FYI- I redeemed my points earlier and got 4 brand spanking new radials for the trailer. Thanks Smoke.:zip::laugh::party:
I like Adam Sandler's works- Weding Singer, 50 First Dates, Grown Ups 1 & 2, Happy Gilmore, Billy Madison, Mr. Deeds, Just Go WIth It all good, just entertainment and yes some of us are married whereby the CEO gets to watch what she wants every now and then. OR have young children which gives me an excuse to watch those animated movies, Shrek, Puss in Boots, Cars, Planes etc. LOL.

spend em like they're hot!



Don't forget Big Daddy... "Hey what's your name? he'll write it on the wall... MIND YER BUSINESS!"

Points?
