Great Job Ken! Ken - I know you were looking for a new ski at the boat show. I was looking on Overtons.com and they're having an inventory blowout sale and have some skis marked down. I'm sure you'd like to try it on first, but maybe they have something you're looking for. Kyle |

Thanks Todicus. I've definitely made it a must do for 08 to meet you and your family. I haven't been on the lake at Berryessa for several years, so perhaps I'll tow up and meet you. Several other Norcal guys been showing up here lately. Would be fun to meet up for a mini reunion. Send me an email through my signature link and we'll hook up. I'm thinking maybe make a spring run up to Berryessa in April. Now, stop recommending cheap CA wines. Life is too short to drink cheap wine or cheap beer. Besides, the state needs the revenue. BKH |

I'd bet that you are even able to slip into those sweet plaid shorts you used to wear.

Thanks for the complements, guys. Last year pushed me over the edge with being out of shape. I was pushing 200lbs, size 37 waist. Today I'm weighing in at 158, 31-32 waist. I have tons of energy too! This should significantly help my watersports performance. The gut is finally gone after..hmmmm...many years. Yeah, as far as that brand new BF suit I bought last year and never used, that might be going back to Overtons for a smaller size. Looking forward to tearing up Lost Lake! Ken |

1. Finish sorting out the mechanicals on the Classic.
2. Explore 5 new lakes/rivers. 3. Achieve a dizzying height of mediocrity in skiing and wakeboarding. 4. Get wife and twins competent on wakeboard. Maybe even the little kid. 5. Teach wife to drive boat so I can do #3. 6. Get a custom cover made. 7. Make a little more $, keep a little more $. 8. Don't break myself or the kids 9. Find wind wing brackets (can a brotha get a little help) 10. Get together with as many friends as possible. |

Considering all the fun me and Patti had and all the cool people we met on here.....I'd say that is a good goal Reid.
BTW: I hope you have been following the "Mini' reunion thread...as long as we are having at your place on the St. Johns. Better check it out. john |

[QUOTE=Nautique2001] I have lost 35 pounds since October!
Nice job...I know how hard it is to lose anything at all. Keeping the boat outa the service dept is a good goal as well. john |

Great topic, Mike.
I would like to get up long line BF. Successfully run the entire slalom course at 15 off. Continue to get into better shape. I have lost 35 pounds since October! Not have to replace my engine for a third time. Keep my boat out of NECC service dept and on the water. Mike, let's work on carving out some time over the summer to foot, ski and board. Get yourself a BF suit. Ken |

When I select a wine, paying a higher price doesn't mean it's going to taste better, so I go for the low end stuff. I was just wondering how cheap it goes out there because very seldon can I find anything anymore for much less than $6.99. I've got friends that come to Maine in the summer and we eat and drink a lot. One guy is into wines and has a huge wine cellar. They don't mind if I pick up the tab for the lobsters or haddock, but they do not want me buying the wine. LOL |

Charles Shaw is good and cheap, and made in the Napa Valley. $1.99 to 2.99 a bottle. Southern Australia wine is flooding the market, and pretty good. You can buy it at Target in a box, which equals 4 bottles and costs $15.00. A good friend of mine is a wine maker at Rutherford Hill Winery, and he always has a box of that in his fridge. But honestly, you can tell a pretty big difference between the cheap stuff and the 15 to 20 dollar variety. |

Teach the wife how to pull skier/footer 4. Teach my brother and my father in-law to foot. 5. I want to be able to cross in and out of the wake with out falling. |

1) I'm with Joe in NY about the injury free season
2) More HP's for the BFN 3) Bacerds on the boom 4) More time on the AirChair 5) Wakesurf 6) Meet up with more of you clowns 7) Attend a reunion (damn show ski schedule) 8) Improve myself and my teammates/sons endurance runs 9) Find more lakes with the BFN (Ford lake 87) This is just a few, and they are in no particular order, except for #1 Steve |
