Ken, Mac, Marke - November 30, December 1

[Mark Hofman]

Its official.



Barring personal injury or illness, I'll be in Detroit on November 30 and December 1. I'll cut out some time to run by the store on either Saturday or Sunday afternoon just to say "howdy".



If that doesn't work with you, I may need to stay over until Monday morning. More than likely, my wife will be tagging along but I can leave her at the hotel if need be.

[Ken Neeley]

Bummer....I'll be up-north at my place until the 1st.

You could joins us up there and stay over a night if you like...it's 2 hours north of Detroit.

 

[Mark Hofman]

Hey, family always comes first big guy. Don't worry 'bout it.



Actually, the boss JUST came in and asked if I would mind taking our newest staff member along for some in-field training. That makes things a bit more difficult to work around, but it means I also may be in the area for another day or two (Saturday morning through Tuesday). I'll let you know as it gets closer to those dates when I would likely be dropping into the store.



MO

 

[Mark Hofman]

Oh, I see how this works....



EVERYBODY is friendly until MO shows. Then they're NO shows! LOL!!!!

 

[Mark Hofman]

(Just kiddin') :^)

 

[Ken Neeley]

I'd love to hook up with you Monday or Tuesday!!!

 

[Marke Cicero]

Hey Mo,

Being the newbie I'm sure I'll be the one to get stuck working holiday's. Swing by the store I'm sure I'll be here. If it's later in the evening then we'll hook up for dinner and a beer or something.



Marke

 

[Andrew Zuber]

Oh...and MO-

bring your super-whammydine hole punch thingy to put locks on Marke's boat...

(he forgot to remind you)

LOL



az

 

[Mark Hofman]

I'll have to see if my father-in-law can check it out of the tool crib at Boeing (again)!



Tin wins! Punch it, cut it, bend it, weld it, grind it, drill through it; its versitile stuff!!!

 

[Marke Cicero]

Andy......YOU ROCK MAN!!!!!! What a great idea.



Mo, could you? Would you? PLEEEZE, Bring the super duper whammy hole punch thingy???



Andy bring your boat up. I have a 2 1/2 car garage and Mo can do both our boats.



Craig,

I need lid locks, springs to hold lids open, a dual console, a 150XR6 and a safety strap for Andy's boat. Just charge it all to Ken )



I'll give my boat a complete MOke over. Maybe we can feaute it on "The Shade Tree Mechanic".

 

[Mark Hofman]

Guys, are you talking about the Greenlee Model 7906SB Quick Draw Hydraulic Punch? Or are you talking about the Slugobuster 2" and Double-D cutters?



The cutters can be used with just a set of hand wrenches, and I have both sets. The two-inch cutter (for the lid pulls) will be a b&$%# to use with just a set of wrenches, but the double-D punch (for the locks) wouldn't be hard at all.



The Greenlee hydraulic punch tool we used is owned by Boeing Aircraft. Even if I could get my hands on it again, I doubt I could take it all the way to Detroit.



Now, if you want to bring your boats through St. Louis on the way to next year's Rally, and bring the parts you need, we could set you up right in about three hours right there in my driveway or garage!

 

[Mark Hofman]

How does Monday the 2nd look for any of you three?



I'll be staying in the Bloomfield Hills area, and could come up to the store any time (at this point) on Monday, since I'll take a personal day. I don't want to take folks away from work, so lunch is a possibility.



Sunday evening is still open, and my co-worker doesn't fly up until late Monday afternoon.

 

[Ken Neeley]

I'll be up at my place hunting until Sunday morning, then I'm leaving for Baltimore on business Sunday afternoon.



Sorry I'm gonna miss ya!!!

 

[Marke Cicero]

Mo,

If you can, try to stop by the store on Saturday afternoon or Sunday morning. All of our Sales staff is leaving for Baltimore on Sunday afternoon.



In case I don't see you, I'll give you directions to my house and I'll leave the garage unlocked. I'll have all of the parts and electronics on my boat ready to install..LOL



Marke

 

[Mark Hofman]

Saturday afternoon and Sunday morning are out for me because of work.



Sorry we won't be able to connect on this trip, but have fun in Baltimore.
