I hate hotels and their stupid pet policies. I have to work out of town between Christmas and New Years. So here is a thought, bring the family and my black lab with me. But NO, can't do that. Every hotel in the area either does not allow pets, or only allows pets under 35 pounds. It has happened to me before, and continues to happen. It's BS that they allow little dogs that bark all day, but won't allow a 12 year old, 65 pound lab that sleeps most of the day, and wouldn't harm a fly. :mad:
Well, I certainly understand a "NO PETS" policy. But, if a hotel is going to allow pets, what's the big difference between a 35 lb dog and a 36 lb dog?
What city are you headed to? Maybe we can find you some help.
WAIT... I know the answer to this one....... :)Quote:

I hate drivers who don't understand the concept of the 'Fast' lane. Get out of my way! And as far as driving goes why is diesel about $1.00 more then unleaded fuel??? It's a bi product of making gas. It should be cheaper! Like it used to be! I also hate winter.
Snow makes me angry and being cold is enough to send me into an anxiety attack (a little exaggerated) I can't be on the water or ride motorcycles. Winter is a sad time of the year for me.
great thread.
Why does a continental breakfast at my hotel in New Zealand cost $20?????

Old thread....
Why does she feel like, without checking first, she needs to invite ANYONE IN THE WORLD WHO COULD POSSIBLY GO for the maiden voyage / shake down run of the year where I'll be flipping switches, opening compartments, climbing around, re-tune stereo if necessary, checking ballast bags and testing things...
Oh yeah,,, it's much more enjoyable to do this kind of thing when there's 10 people aboard. :mad:
Hahaha have fun!

Preach Berg, preach haha
I had to do that with all the in-laws.... 😤💥🔫
that does suck. You should start opening up stuff and go "oo shoot we are sinking" then get everyone in life vests and forget to tell them for the rest of the day you are not sinking.
Ha, well tragedy avoided - for now. Nice peaceful run tonight with no in-laws or extras. I'm still not even sure how it all worked out, but it did. I know this is only the beginning though...
My mother-in-law, God bless her, is the type that will sit and observe intently whatever I'm doing. But then ask 100 questions about whatever it is and why you're doing it and what happens if this and that and... As if she's out on a test drive and thinking about buying the boat.
I do like the idea of toying with them some. Hmmmm. Maybe time to watch Captain Ron again.
Just mount one of these right in front of where she sits. When she reaches for it or points at it to ask you what it is, scream, "DON"T TOUCH THAT!!!!!!!!!!!!"

Why am I always stuck waiting on a guy at the double ramp who puts his Murano in to launch across both lanes of the ramp? He's alone, has to dock his Yamaha, tie up, then come move his POS himself because his wife can't drive the Nissan back up the ramp herself? Would it be considered car theft if I move it myself?

One way to find out!Quote:

Berg if I were I would be complaining about just not getting to the shake down run in mid June!

Yah, very good point David. Had a few obstacles keeping us off the water. Happy to say that I didn't smoke my new bearings or brakes yesterday though! Was kinda nervous about that.
It's almost July and I haven't got the boat on the water yet..... Fer cryin out loud. Weather's just been crap, especially on the weekends, so far.
Step daughter and "man-child" boyfriend of hers almost always at least an hour late when we want to head to the lake. We are about to the point where we just leave without them. When they are on time they show up broke, very hungry and thirsty.

Time to deploy the covert mind game operations.
Step Daughter: "What are you guys doing today?"
Dad: "Working in the yard and cleaning out the garbage cans. Wanna come help?"
Later/Next Day
Step Daughter: "WTF"
Dad: "Yeah, we changed our minds. Where were you?"
Disclaimer: This does not work on some variations of in-laws. They will be happy to come and watch you work instead and ask a bunch of questions about what you're doing...
Greatness Berg!!!! I may have to try that and report back. On a brighter note... they already had plans for the 4th!
