Keep in mind it could be estrogen with a vodka chaser.

Wayne is an extremely savvy businessman. If he has a limited supply of 928 parts it's because there isn't much demand for 928 parts to the point it's not worthwhile to stock them in inventory or to allocate staff resources in identifying supply lines for such parts. That said, if you were to call Pelican and request that they look into finding you "X" part because you need it, I bet they'd at least look and try to point you in the right direction. That would make him/his business aware of increased demand for such things and if enough people did it, he'd probably respond accordingly. This is probably a better approach than coming on here and whining like a 2 year old girl with a skinned knee about how unfair life is. HTFU already. Aren't you supposedly a grown adult - and a professional pilot to boot? Jeezus. How in the name of creation did you ever pass a psych evaluation to get in the left seat?
And FWIW you had that ban coming a long time ago. You routinely engage in these cowardly little "sniping" attacks in PPOT where you'll come in out of nowhere, post one (or several) highly inflammatory posts presumably JUST to draw the ire of the community there, then disappear for days or weeks, not engaging in debate or defense of your positions. This is called "trolling" and it speaks volumes about a person's character (or lack thereof). I've stood up for you in the past but you've kind of gone off a bridge lately - you're nuttier than squirrel poo lately to be honest. Dissenting opinions are one thing. Cutting against the grain of the "hive-mind" of PPOT is fine too. Just being an azzhole for the sake of being an azzhole because you've got some kind of complex is quite another. It's pretty clear you crossed that line a long time ago. See ya. As they say don't let the door hit ya.

Normy - In all fairness why would Wayne and Pelican get into the 928 business? There are tons of already established and well known respected vendors out there already for example:
1) 928 International 2) 928 Motorsports 3) 928 World Wide Parts and lots of other specialty vendors like: 1) Paul Champagne for complete and beautiful interiors 2) Nicole etc etc I think your statements are unfair to Wayne / Pelican. I certainly would not want to swim into new unchartered and shark infested waters (sorry that was too easy!!!) if I was running or starting a new business idea.

WOW! How did you get a exotic 928 to go 7 whole miles in one trip???? Did you have to pack a lunch? Thats like a 6-pack road trip for yea! Why does it seem that all the 928 owners are slightly (read way over) off center. Must be the lack of off-throttle oversteer! Keep your face out of the toilet water in the morning and you will be fine.

Norm has a history of burning bridges, seems a little sad to me, and I wonder what's really up. BTW, what Wayne has done for the 928 community is provide a free forum, with no expectations. I'm sorry if Norm got a temporary ban for blasting someone about anti Gay banter. He should know what to expect from the PARF crowd, but I expect he is pissed at Wayne for allowing it. I think it is wrong. Be glad I am not a moderator. When they banned Mule, I think they were about six steps away from cleaning up the joint. Ah well. |

Nobody in this section is "building his business". Au contraire. We're all draining his bandwidth with big pictures of bikinis and satelites and gardens. The people who have spent their time posting enormous amounts of technical data on the 911 Tech section helped build his business. This is the OT/PARF Normy. Opinions are like butts, and everyone has them. There are a lot of butts here. I've also gone through times of very drunken postings, and have been a jerk just for the sake of being a jerk, but the next day I wouldn't be able to understand my own language or thoughts. It didn't change the world. Get sober N., and go deal with whatever else is the source of your trouble. |

Normie, sell that 928 and go mainstream, buy a Boxter, then you can buy parts here and look good in Key West.
