Fraserx Posted July 29, 2007 Author Report Share Posted July 29, 2007 I'm SO glad I started this topic - now every time I log on, I can see the average creep up just a little more and bask in the knowledge that I'm now just a little further behind than before.... Therefore, I have decided to turn to a life of crime, but have a dilemma. I've always favoured so-called 'white-collar crimes' for income enhancement, on non-violence grounds of course, but feel that such an endeavour is bound to take too long to arrange/implement (I want more Revs NOW!). The alternative - convenience store hold-ups/bank robberies etc etc - are not really 'me', y'know? Even if I COULD justify the violence part, I don't have a suitable weapon and have seen too many video clips on TV shows where people actually have the temerity to fight back! The main thing is though, I have sensitive skin and it's extremely difficult to get ski masks in good quality natural fibres - they all seem to be made from dreadful synthetic mixtures... ughh! (Sigh) What am I to do? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Sigh) What am I to do? Attach some lights to your rev for a night fly, and then capitalize on the alien sighting phoenomenon in Scotland. Make some crop circles while you're at it, and become the expert everyone wants to interview for money! Hehehehehe. Sorry, it's really early here. :?

Baloo Posted July 29, 2007 Report Share Posted July 29, 2007 Best thing Fraser. Buy up the last of the tickets in the Rev draw. You have more chance of winning that than getting away with a life of crime. Dont forget, crime never pays. (unless you NEVER get caught of course) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fortflyer Posted July 29, 2007 Report Share Posted July 29, 2007 Well Fraser personally I don't know what your complaining about lol, you have gone from having 1 kite to an average of 17.76 and my count has gone down from 31 to 17.76, therefor to further hit you financially I believe those of us effected with reduced numbers as a result should charge the rest of you with much lower counts rent of some sort maybe royalties yeah thats it. See now that will allow me to purchase more kites to bring the average even higher, therefor again making the percentage of lesser shareholders rise increasing rates allowing me to buy even more. Muah ha ha ha haaaaa I am the Bill Gates, of Quad Kites, yeah don't I wish Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
antman Posted July 29, 2007 Report Share Posted July 29, 2007 And we are getting more revs, so this will never be a complete count. Just between us 35 fliers, and the rate we are buying revs, maybe just figure on automatically adding 2 kites per week to this count alone. I have a long wish list to fulfill yet. i heard that zen im saveing up as we speak Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nobodyspecial Posted July 30, 2007 Report Share Posted July 30, 2007 Hey Quadkit, he's magic, and most big kite shows like wkisf and the ilk have auctions of all sorts of kites, you would think that people would have a nice number of toys lying around throughout the area, ya do know he covers a very large part of the world when it comes to traipsing around trying not to trip on lines and make everybody look like kids with yarn and newspaper playing compaired to him.... horrible mental visual now.. lol he gets around so he finds neat ...Stuff.

KiteLife Posted July 30, 2007 Report Share Posted July 30, 2007 KiT, I scored the Neos from someone in Berkeley who wasn't using it, and wanted to pass it on to another dedicated flier. Number 9 of 22, from the original prototype batch, according to Ben. It is signed by Joe Hadzicki and numbered as well. <grin> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
