My buddy just launched his 38 bettram

Bob- Sounds like congratulations are in order!

i am not sure walterk. the fact of the matter is my son anthony will not see his children that worries me. they are at that age!!

Gotta make it while you can Bob, especially in this economy...I appreciate all my Dad had to do to make it...may have taken a few years to sink in but I have walked a similar path and now I GET IT...BH

I am still trying to decifer Bobs first post.

Bruce,

I'm with you; I couldn't make heads nor tails of the post, but didn't want to appear stupid in the sandbox. Bob, if congratulations are in order, congrats!

It is quite obvious to me, Walter understood Bob.

I rode the short schoolbus - I understood nada! Other than going south and possibly running black ops for the cia!

Congratulations Bob...!!!!

Ray

me too- whatever............

Bob was asking (I think) if Bruce might consider a job/association/consultancy/ working with his son's business (Phoenix) that just got a big Federal Contract that might have a south Florida region need. That's how I read it.

thats exactly it walterk. the job will start in florida but they will call the shots where and when. would like to sub out alot of it. basicly reinvented the wheel bruce the gorvernment accepted it and now must be installed in a whole lot of ANG/USAF bases throughout the us. you know i cannot be more specific lets say it is gentlemans work, installing a bathroom size mirror in very important places concerning national safety to the tune of 24 big ones real big ones.

thank you brothers . wait till phoenix goes to texas . guess who gets a phone call? i think capt. patrick needs a new fat boy what do you think?

nah he is too busy building that hot tub... i mean pond :)

Having done a considerable amount of gov. contracting in my time, I strongly suggest you build a 25% FWEF into your pricing.

thanks vic well taken. the first hand built " wall mirror" went to six vendors to built 1st piece. simens corp. looks like a go but will take 60 days for production.a certain minority collects money takes a piece gives to desktop alert they inturn take the major wack then comes phoenix.

Congrads...

Just watch those middle guys, they can destory the best laid plans.

I won't even go into dealing with the Government...

Carl

sim i forgot to mention after the payment goes to the minority it goes to a group of lawyers and beancounters who determine how much the company needs before going broke then gives money to desktop alert they distribute to venders and us. lots of greedy hands in the till.

Remember the phrase?

"I'm from the government and I'm here to help you".

installing a bathroom size mirror in very important places

You know thats how it starts.

Then its, hey Joey, do you like movies about gladiators?

Followed by, ever seen a grown man naked?


Thanks Tommy, glad is wasn't just me.

Bob got a contract to install bathroom mirrors and he wants Bruce to help?

im going to check this thread tomorrow, make sure that hemi green paint I sprayed tonight didn't go right to my brain

tommy thats my habit of explanation because i am dealing with smart men. i would say" A is larger then B and B is larger then C "i would expect you to derive at the fact A is larger then C unless you were a women they would interject yea but! i take into account who i am addresing this post to .no green cards you have to walk and chew gum AT the same time.

10-4 Bob. First I saw "bruce"; OK I know him because he did my engine installation; then I see "phoenix"; OK, a Bertram 31 (or even a Bertram 33 on here from time to time); so I'm trying to connect you, Bruce and a B-31 named Phoenix and realize I'm totally lost. Now that Walter, he's one smart Dude!

Bob

We are shutting the government down this friday. No need to put up any mirrors. Besides, we don't need any more $1,000 toilet seats.

Tommy

Walter is just on a whole different level then the rest of us.

Jeez guys, after all this time you haven't learned Bobspeak?

robbie perhaps a very special electronic box would have been a better descrition. used for a national alert to keep the bad guys from doing evil things.

Actually I have gotten pretty good at following Bob. But he lost me on this one. He was trying to speak in code not to give away the secret and that just did us in.

Tommy...

It surely ain't me!

Bob,

You need any help in South Carolina let me know. Got 2 AFB and a Guard base here to. Going to open house at AFB tomorrow to watch the Thunderbirds perform

Capt. Bill McKinnon
Charleston SC

every afb and air national guard base in the country. vital to stay one step ahead of the bad guys trying to inflict major causuaties on innocent population.
