Title: Onward through the fog.
Post by: waterboy on February 26, 2007, 11:39:45 AM
I have really enjoyed posting on this forum for the last two years. Its time for me take a break though. I have designed a boat that I think is worth pursuing and I know I will need to put all my efforts, both mental and physical, towards producing a prototype and trying to market it(as well as provide household income during the process).

This forum has become a refuge for me when I am frustrated (and sometimes provided that frustration) but it also distracts me. Distraction is my enemy right now. I know Tulsa needs as much help as she can get right now and this is the only place where people can openly discuss the problems and opportunities. Regardless of the sniping, politicking, chest pounding and volcanic eruptions it has been a learning experience for me and I actually have changed some of my long held beliefs. Of course I can't afford to lose any more of those.

If I am weak and try to post, for heavens sake, smack me down! Onward, through the fog. Focus, must focus...

I don't know how this thread went without a single "whatever floats your boat" joke.

Thank you all. The boat I have designed is not yet patented (may need IP here). Hesitant to say much. If you see a strange boat on the river, with an even stranger pilot, don't shoot! It could be me.

Ok, Watery, I slap you around a bit, when I get back, for the post's you've made since saying you were not going to make any more.

I'll go easy though as hospital bills substract from design budgets.

Just don't make anymore, jdb

It's exciting to stop something and start something.  You've been a great voice of reason here.  I'll miss you.

Cry me a river, waterboy. Sleep is over-rated, post at night.

Nobody said that rational people get parole.
