what do you mean i got burned..... you know that phrase I have worked diligently since the beginning gets kind of old... clap clap pat on the back... get over it already....first of your not a kid your an adult.. act like it your very aragant the way you talk to people.... you act like everyone owes you for starting the club... Now Now this phrase of your has been said to me before (some of us dont have the luxury of driving a company vehicle and leaving the engine running wasting somebody else's Fuel.) Since you put my business out there I put yours... Dont be upset because I HAVE A JOB... I DONT HAVE A RECORD like you do and that red flags you from employment... Now as for the parts thing...since you put it out there(why not be compensated for that?) THAT"S JUST WRONG... especially from you... so called preacher/minister.... what you are doing is taking advantage of the situation.... I tell you what on thursday youll hear the rest of me....because this here is not the place to do it.. I like to say it face to face .. like a man does....

Because you got burned in the past doesnt mean its going to happen again... you know damn well that I have worked diligently since the beginning... there is no argument there.
I havent taken advantage of anyone here at all so i dont know where your head is at when you made that statement... I am here for the duration as I have been from the beginning. Up to now there have been costs and expenditures that you have not seen or even been aware of... people think that its just about having a meet... well no man... when there is something to be done its not just done out of home sitting in front of a puter... take the shirts for instance... I did the legwork on it... did you ? Did you even suggest a place where we can get the shirts made.... or even go to various embroiderers... well last time i checked i was getting about 9 MPG's and covered a lot of miles going to different shirtmakers or silk screeners... Now this phrase of your has been said to me before (some of us dont have the luxury of driving a company vehicle and leaving the engine running wasting somebody else's Fuel.)

This forum that you are on right now cost money to operate... by way of banner ads and people like myself who actually made a monetary donation in order to assist in keeping this site operating.
Well when WE ,,, keyword being WE .. have the site up... our own club site it takes money to make the world go 'round... Hosting a website will have a cost...
When I ask people to recruit I am not asking to go knocking door to door... some of us dont have the luxury of driving a company vehicle and leaving the engine running wasting somebody else's Fuel. So all i ask is for in a persons spare time if you see a 7 or an 8 let them know that there is a club... or carry the flyers in your car.. you see a 7 or an 8 then put a flyer on their window or car door. What is so hard about that.
With respect to selling parts... well i beg to differ on that motion... I have come in contact with people who have a need for this kind of service... If i know that someone is selling an item and I just happen to know someone who is interested in that item and as it has happened to be the case that i have gotten some email some time ago ... I simply put two people together... why not be compensated for that ? A guy in St Cloud have a vert for sale and he has been trying to sell it for some time... well i met a guy in Winter Haven that wanted a vert... I put two people together and Mark in Winter Haven now owns a '90 vert.. I just made $100.00 bucks on it... no big deal... two people were made happy...
You say that if this is supposed to be a club the way it is now is fine...
How can it be when there isnt enough participation and involvement... people are not pitching in like a club should be... just watch me when it comes to the meets... just observe and see how much i get involved before, during and after.
Then ask yourself the same question ...

You are right that at times I can be very arrogant and many times I have sought to apologise to everyone for my attitude as I did at HMS Parade Lap. Had you been there that day you would have been one of many recipients of my public apology.
I simply went by something you posted when you said " I wrote that because everytime someone involve's money it all mess things up... PEOPLE take advantage of PEOPLE then act like there doing everthing possible FOR THE CLUB"
Perhaps this something that you experienced in the past having been involved in some other club.. that was the basis of the term burned. I reflected it that if someone makes a statement that it is personal testimony.
Being a preacher or a minister doesnt necessarily disqualify me from making a living whichever way I see fit... legally of course.. Im not catholic where a catholic priest get his paycheck from the Archdiocese or the Vatican. Christian ministers have regular jobs but they also tend to a flock along with their pastor. I know of many Christian Pastors that keep a regular job. I met one working at a collection agency for Living Well Lady that is owned by Ruben who drove the White flamed RX7 convertible from the first meet we had last year at my shop.
I simply said that when you have the luxury of driving around town all day then you have easier access to see some 7's or 8's where you can hand out flyers... Abel drives a school bus and when he gets the opportunity to inform out on the streets he does. Frank does the same thing when he is out working in the field. that is where i think you are missing my point.
Pat myself on the back ? sure why not... you all know what I have done with respect to the meets and getting this off the ground. I know for a fact as it has been brought up before many here even the haters at one point or another have conveyed that I have done a great job to make these events happen. I know that you can relate to it.
I make no secret that I have a RECORD... everyone knows that.. that is how i lead a transparent life... sure its not simple for me to get a job with my RECORD...its actually been that difficult... but you know what i gotta do then... try to make money how i see fit. Whatever business comes my way where it doesnt hurt anyone its fine.
The hangouts and venues are there for everyone to enjoy not an open forum to vent out frustrations toward someone... so just save it because i am not going to hear what you feel you need to tell me as a man face to face.... I will just ignore whatever you have to say plain and simple for the benefit of others. The needs of the many weigh out the needs of the few.
Think about it this way... Tweak and I have had some animosity towards each other...he vents out his comments on here as do I... but when he is at the hangouts or the meets we are not arguing or shouting at each other... why... I may not like Luis but I respect the fact that he doesnt do that as not to dampen the night for everyone else involved.... that is the rest of people.

the thing is im not Luis.. for a while ive taken little shots from you... comments you make... I 'm a cool person ...BUT now when I get to that point like everyone does its time to say enough is enough and I HAVE NO SHAME TO TELL IT HOW IT IS... AND ILL SAY IT TO WHO EVER IT IS...
And if your not man enough to talk about it in front of people because you'll be ashamed or what ever reason... because it does have to do with the club and hear comments from ANYBODY ELSE WHO HAS TO SAY ANYTHING.. then step down as the so called leader/organizer and dont do anything else.... I Have class thursday till 9:45 but I WILL BE THERE TO VOICE WHAT I HAVE TO SAY.........

Ok Danny...
I will try to set up a meeting for everyone to attend perhaps at that time you can have your say or use this forum to convey your thoughts....If it has to do with the club then it may be fine... as long as it pertains to the club.. but personal frustrations and opinions based on personal feelings about a person is not warranted. This is not the forum for it. Soon enough we will have a meeting place once the 1st bay at the daycare is constructed. I dont vent out my frustrations about anyone at the meets or hangouts and everyone knows that. The only message i do try to convey is that everyone should try to get more involved but i dont scrutinize anyone person deliberately It is not the place and time for it.
You can very well post it on here as everyone else has also... when we have our own site then anyone would be welcomed to voice their opinions.. after all that is why it is called a forum.
Should you try to vent it out at the hangout I will not recieve it and I will not listen. If I may reiterate one more time. The hangout is not the place for it.

On a side note... I also have Ministry classes on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays and Sunday is my Sabbath Day. That is why Abel gets there before I do and starts the Tangos hangout.

We will be having a meeting soon at the Daycare... where everyone will have the podium and be able to speak... each person should have a couple of minutes to voice their thoughts, grievances, opinions... Kind of like having a Town Meeting of sorts.

Thanks Colin... good going... I suppose that i will have to think of something we can do to reward those who are supporting the club by spreading the word... if only more people followed suit... man that would be great.

There will be a meeting of the SOFLA RX CLUB this thursday as most of you are aware in the email that i sent you over a week ago.
It is important that you attend this meeting for those that dont have to travel as far. If you are not able to make it on Thursday night to TANGOS PIZZA please call me on Friday at 786-286-3351 and I will fill you in.
I only logged on today to inform so if you have a question email me at SOFLARXCLUB@yahoo.com or call me... I will not be addressing questions on this forum or in this thread.
Be well,
VAl
