This Site Is Really Worthless-

The name of this thread says it all.

Pelican Parts? I've never bought a single part from Wayne. Why? He refuses to sell 928 parts at all. Why the hell have I built his business by posting my thoughts here when he won't even support the 928 community? And when was the last time that Wayne showed at a 928 gathering? Christ, it isn't that hard! There are 3 giant meets each year, one on the west coast, one in the middle, and one [god help us...] in the middle of the mountains of North Carolina. Hello? That's pretty damn good coverage Wayne!

Me and Wayne: He was interested in the BMW M1 car about a year ago, and I took time out of my day to drive my 928 to a shop in Fort Lauderdale that had not one....but THREE of these extremely rare cars on the showroom floor. I drove about 3.5 miles each way to this shop, or about 7 miles. I sent Wayne an email detailing this shop and this unusual concentration of these cars [probably the only place on the planet with 3 M1's], along with the condition of what I saw.

My payback for all this exertion: Banned for two weeks for no other reason than pointing out to a LOSER his essential hypocrisy. An individual who used bigoted homophobic speech towards me. Did he get banned? NO......

[Hi Wayne! How ya doin~]

Tsk! Folks, I'm not going to make that many posts here any more. This place is getting lethargic, and I've noted that the attendance seems to be declining. In my opinion, the pelican is coated with oil and can't fly-

N!

Exertion?????

Have mercy, Normy... take a nap or something. And get a physical... it sounds like something is wrong with you.

Not sure what kind of drugs the above poster is doing, but 1, sure they are not FAA approved, and 2. sure would like to have some at various times around the month... when I am not flying of course.

Of all the whiners we have here on the board, this is one that we can really lose and not not miss a minutes sleep over it.

Just thought I would save the post for when he feels like deleting it.... which he might after he sobers up.

Someone is off their meds and it's time to pull up a chair and throw a bag of popcorn in the microwave.

I've said it before but it is worth repeating. It is scary that someone this delusional flies planes.

Still can't believe they let you fly jets. You gotta be packing a bag of black-market urine in your trousers pretty much 24/7 for those surprise drug tests, eh?

What's got you all bunched up? Gritty mollusk over the banning? Why not head down to the bar. It is late, but if you move quick, you should be able to find someone to push in your stool.

Oh yeah, IBTL

It's like running a rice-strainer through the toilet bowl-

The critters I find I have no idea how to deal with. I could pour your sort on the ground. The really disgusting things, such as that assclown I described before, I could just stomp. That guy I mentioned, who is half a person at best....wouldn't even show up in a toilet bowl since he is just a junk and can't even talk for himself. If, it is indeed a "him" This assclown lives off of you and me- he lives off the dole, but he's RIGHT THERE telling others that they can't live off the government.

Good idea! I don't want anyone to have access to a weapon unless they are non-felony, or at least the same thing.

If you would examine my posts then you would see why I'm so upset. I'm not really upset- I'm simply resigning. That means that I wont post that much any more. Wayne and his business will survive

So it's not that "This Site is Really Worthless," you're just "upset."

Awwwwwww... poor Normy.

Typical ******* tactic... when things don't go their way, they irrationally impugn, namecall, etc.

It's not workin' for ya, Normy... you should quit before you get any further behind.

That's too bad.

I think you do post when you have been drinking or otherwise "partaking," and these posts are often over the top or nonsensical. But there's nothing wrong with that, most of us here enjoy a few drinks, and your inebriated posts are entertaining!

Also, I think you could have added quite a bit to the community if you could just find it to be honest about yourself. I think you would be surprised that people would be accepting and would actually respect and welcome your perspective. But that's your choice and I can certainly understand your reluctance.

Anyways, take care.

I do love me a good intarwebz meltdown. And once again Normy proves that too much estrogen in the system can be toxic.
