Todd, in case you missed it,
THE PASSOVER IS OVER!
and time to ask
"Why is this board different from every other board?"
have passed.

Timon · 04-26-2006

Todd, new Oprano management told all the old timers to fuck off.

We are now all on winetalk.com

sextoyking · 04-26-2006

Passover was great I can attest to that..

Well I was not reading oprano for a bit - been busy and I come back and it's all wiered out.....

here is a quote of a prominent surfmaster, a prime example of this new hybrid breed:

maybe I'm in the wrong business sir. And should just dedicate my talent to being a designer, cause its what I enjoy doing the most. I don't speak for anyone else but myself when I say that, it's not all about the $$$, I need to enjoy what I do & if I find happiness in what I do, and I'm able to bring in money while I do it. Then that will make me even more happier.

Ya... thats pretty much my (nOOb perspective).

The PROS here have lost this in a sence, it's become more of an $$$ reigns,

and who cares much on detail or enjoying what they offer the public, just show me the money. With all due respect sir, I feel you all just don't care anymore about the public. as long as the bank accounts are full.

Winetalk.com · 04-26-2006

Todd, do you run your companies just for your own pleasure!?

sextoyking · 04-26-2006

feel, art, enjoy, WTF

It's almost all about the money - this is business.. Offer your service or product to the public - general consumer and sell as much of it as you possibly can and make as much $$$$ as you can...

Winetalk.com · 04-26-2006

Damn...sorry, Todd, but you don't belong here, you are not a surfmaster, never been one and you'll be banned very soon, just ask Nick and Ant how and why were they banned.

JR · 04-26-2006

todd, being that you have a real brick and mortar store as well as websites, you are actually twice removed from surfmasters. its not looking good for your future here

Timon · 04-26-2006

I am going to start a petition to have Todd banned... he doesn't fit in here

Jr,

long time no talk..

Well I guess a banning is coming in my direction then

Doing good - been quite busy lately.

Were setting up some nice product lines - doing some mainstream, etc. Will come out with weblines.com in a couple of months - should rock

Glad spring is here and almost summer - can't wait for travel time..

How's things with you? Are you up I-5 still?

there are still some words of wisdom to be gleaned around here. the nuggets are few and far betwee. on of our favorite surfmasters left us with this:

"SO WHEN YOU REJECT & MOCK THE "NOOB" YOUR ALSO REJECTING THE FUTURE INTERNET SURFER !!!"

Great idea - count me in forsure. Yeh Serge will be here. Let's all do dinner or something.

Speaking of bikes - almost ready to put on my boots and take the hog in for service - it's been about a year...

What kind of ride are you going to get?

Bellevue is cool, grew up there when I was young - Both sisters still live there, near the Sears on bel red road. We used to live near BCC when I was young.

i need a combination of "comfortable to ride" and "scary fast" and this seems to be the only bike that fits that description.

sextoyking · 04-26-2006

nice ride Jr, but too much crotch rocket for me

you will love it.... I love my hog (fat boy) - comfortable, nice and loud

gotta run, see you guys a bit later..

I guess you also need a Liberal Arts degree to be a surfmaster. That leaves me out. My college *cough* *cough* a couple years *cough* *cough* ago never taught me "you want fries with that?" so I've never done anything for the art sake, though my coding is a visual joy most of the time.

Funny, I was just saying the same thing.

I have a theory:

Everyone is so old they forgot either their pass or username. They had to creat a new account. and are now being called SCAMMERS.
