Title: Let's see those tubs... (and some Humor too)
Post by: Drewski on November 29, 2004, 11:38:33 am
Hi All:

Far be it from me to say so (after all, I JUST got a digital camera), BUT how about forum members posting some pictures of y'all using your tubs?  For you dealers out there, how about your stores?

We talk a LOT here (not that talking is bad), but how about posting some pictures?  I have hot tub socials almost every weekend and I have a feeling you guys (and ladies) do too, so, let's see the pics!

(http://img124.exs.cx/img124/6150/P11.jpg)

My next picture post will be my annual "snow party," (if the weather cooperates) usually a rare event in Beach Town.  Nothing better then snow and a hot tub.  I'll also post pictures of the "famous" Drewski "Sweedish Relaxation Technique" which I'm sure everyone will get a kick out of.

BTW, adding to the humor thread from the other day (I'm bored, it's Monday), I heard this one from a 10 year old on T-Day:

"Uncle Drew, how do you catch a Polar Bear?"  "Gee Kimmy, I don't know, how?"

"Easy.  You cut a hole in the ice and put peas all around the hole.  When the Polar Bear comes to take a pea, you kick him in the ice hole!"

Oh yeah.  What a jokester.

Peace and hot water friends...

As a person known to use humor (or smart remarks if you prefer) and semi related pics, I say go for it, it makes things more pleasant around here.  The only potential problem is for people using dial up accounts. Are the pics causing problems for any of you dial up users? Of course putting pics in the subject line will help so people can avoid them.

Personally, I would go without food 3 or 4 days a month before I would give up my broadband connection. (yea, I know it wouldn't hurt)  And I would die before I used an AOL account.

It sometimes pays to have connections.  

Other times it costs......

OK, you guys are very funny and creative.

Now, how about some pictures of your stores and/or showrooms?

BTW, Chas, do you think you could "downsize" that picture a little?  Ndabunka's wife looks great, but download speed at 56K is probably 20 minutes...

Cool store wetone!  It looks like all you need is water, a few drinks, some people and ** POW **, instant party!

That's the kind of showroom that sells tubs.  Wish we had stores like that around here...

Good job!

C'mon Chas, let's see the showroom floor...

Hey Wetone,

Nice Store - doesn't look like anything here in Jersey.

Ya know Chas, after I made that post I said to myself, I'll bet he will put a picture up of a floor.

WHY am I NOT surprised?   ;)

Such wit...

Looks like I need to break out my camera next time I shop at the Buenaventura Mall and stop in to see you.  

I could hear myself now. Hmmmm, Yes, hello, I'm interested in buying a spa. Could you show me EVERY model in the store and tell me WHY they cost so much?  You can cut me a "special" price can't you?  WELL, can't you?!!!

;D

Just joking...  C'mon buddy, post some pics!

OK, all kidding aside - our store is nothing fancy. We have two extra spas on our floor right now - closeout time. That makes the place jammed. It's a disaster -  not joking at all.

Also, we have only four more months on the lease in Ventura, and have made a couple of offers on other places: one to lease, one to buy.  (1.8 million bucks - and it's an old, funky building and an empty lot next door. Welcome to California real estate !!)

But if that goes through we will have HotSpring send in their design team and create a showplace to be proud of. We will be going from less than two thousand feet to over eight thousand - and we will be adding fireplaces and my good friend Patty. You know him? Patty O'furniture.

In the meantime, feast your eyes on the outside of our building:  (http://www.hotspringspasofventura.com/NewTruck1.jpg)

Your commercial real estate prices are about the same as in our area, except ours is in Canadian pesos.

Bought a printer from today from a company called The Printing Plant in Cincinnati and after talking to the rep on the phone for about 10 minutes, I said, your from Canada aren't you? She said she has lived in Cincinnati for 26 years, and nobody ever catches that, how did I know?    She gave it away when she told me she would make sure it got shipped oooout today.

It's a chevy. Made by Isuzu, which is a division of Chevy now, it has a fuel-injected 350 V8 which pulls like a demon up hills and down.

12,000 pound GVWR - real truck tires, brakes, license and registration. And insurance. And you get to stop at truck scales just like the guys with the tatoos.

Get great mileage too !! Almost 19 gallons to the mile....
Actually if mileage is an issue, get the turbo diesel version.
