Hollywood’s Signature

I think what todicus wrote is both hillarious and true. He's one of the best contributors to this board. Also, one of the rudest. However, there's something in me that kind of likes that att*tude--right, but a little slanderous. Either way, todicus killed me with that line.

But even funnier is that Hollywood went farther than me. I just died laughing at todicus's line. But Hollywood puts it in his signature! Ha! Killer!

I bet lots of the guys at GL were surprised when they met 79. Good guy. Loves C/C and knows his boat. Knows what he is talking about and not afraid to let ya know it.
One of the treats of my summer when he and his lady friend came over for lunch.

Someone said something along the lines before and I laughed my ass off to that one too. Something like "Listen to 79nautique, he might make you mad but he's probably right". Once I saw the one in my sig I had to remember it. I'm glad I got to meet him too, but just like everyone else I didn't get enough time talking with him.

The Dude wrote: write to 79nautique and do what he says. He might make you mad, but he's almost always right.

Hollywood, that was my reply on the "engine cuts-out gt 40 EFI" post.

It's true. I wish I met him and many of you guys too!

I think 79's style is quite refreshing this day and age; like Bugs Bunny, call a maroon a maroon. Some of the most polite people I know are d/ckheads under their fascad.

I have an uncanny abillity to be straight to the point and can spot a dumb ass a mile away.

And actually when I was at the reunion I used quite a lot of tact once and you guys didn't even know it, went so far as to do the same thing suggested instead of calling it for what it was. Now who can figure out when it was and what it was?

Rob you get the first crack since you where the closest and it was on your boat when it happened.

I agree that 79 knows his boats better than me and most other people but I still don't think that is an excuse for him to disrespect people. I am sure that at one point in his life he didnt know everything either.

Maybe I am one of those dumb asses that he spotted a mile away but I was very offended when he attacked one of my projects that I had worked very hard on.

I have read most of the threads on this forum, and have to agree that 79nautique is always there to help. I have a good friend who was a F-16 mechanic in the military, and now is a certified Mercedes and BMW mechanic in San Francisco. He really knows how to solve any mechanical problem on a motor, but will b*tch slap you the entire time he fixes the mess one could not complete.

However, he could not figure out my gt-40 problems I was having (lack of free time more than anything), so in desperation I came to the CCforum and guess who pointed me in the right direction..............79nautique of course.

I've noticed that 79 will always start out direct and to the point with simple and concise instructions................ but like he has said, he can "smell a dumb ass a mile away", and you are going to get blasted if you exhibit any of those qualities.

Hollywood, I wish I didn't live so far away from you and the PLboatclub party crew, we would have a blast........... doing the same thing out at Lake Berryessa in NorCal.

Glad you liked the quote......... It was a trend I noticed on most all the threads 79 posted.
