I saw a posting on another site that was about our addiction to R/C but theirs was about planes and I thought of mine (ours) with boats. I thought of a list of things that were modified from theirs and a few of my own, so here goes. You may be a R/Cboating addict if:
..you have more hulls and boats parts than the local Hobby Shops.
..your fingers have scars from sharpening and changing props.
..your AOL favorites areall R/C boating sites.
..your reciepts "mysteriously" disappear on the way home from the Hobby Shop so that you wife doesn't know how much you really spent!
..you have the local Hobby Shops and Gary Preusse's phone number memorized but can't remember your wifes Birthday.
..winter is considered Building Season.
..you have to look in the bathroom for an article in R/CBM.
..the wife has to remind you that the top of the washer and dryer are not workbenches.
..you change your glow plugs after every heat, but your truck has 70,000 miles on the original plugs.
..you go shopping for a new vehicle and all that you are worried about is how many boats and tool boxes it can hold.
..your vacations are planned around District races and the Internats.
..you call in sick because the Big Brown Truck has just delivered your new boat.
..most of your shoes have shrunk or smell funny after going in the water to retrieve your boat.
..your leaf blower and weed whacker don't work because you needed some parts for the boat.
..just about every shirt that you own has castor oil stains on them.
..you only go to picnics and family reunions if they hold them at a lake.
