this is a reminder that Valentines Day is tomorrow. Don't forget your sweet heart, if you do a good job you will get more sailing time in later!

I got to thinking of good Hobie gifts to give, and I was stumped until today. I've been looking at the new colors Hobie has and red is the color of the season!

Brad - If I buy a red trap harness for my wife on Valentines Day, will you pay for the divorce? :shock:

Then again, she did get a wetsuit as a wedding present almost 25 years ago. 8)

Somehow, I think the novelty has worn off, though.

I love it, Brad you are a selling machine! I was thinking of getting the Mrs. a new set of standing rigging for my hobie 20, she of course can't use it, so she'll give it to me. Its the thought that counts, right?

When you find out, let me know. Even after 10 years of marriage and 3 more years of together, it STILL the (censored) gift. I never get anything I want for VD. I can get chocolate ANYTIME I WANT, same with flowers. Hallmark holidays are good for one thing though..... :twisted:

So you're tired of the same old syphilis and gonorrhea?

Looking for something more exotic, like chlamydia?

With your connections, Chris, I wouldn't think that would be a problem. :shock:

Just about fell out of my chair. [img]http://www.cumminsforum.com/forum/images/smilies/rofl[1].gif[/img]

Valentines day wasn't the first thing that popped into my mind either. [img]http://www.cumminsforum.com/forum/images/smilies/cookoo[1].gif[/img]
