    Brian,

    About $90 for a 5'er. Note the bottom of the bucket. Can be used for wood, concrete, brick, all exterior surfaces, hair conditioner for cats and dogs, roof shine, car varnish, fake snot for Halloween, etc. A real bargain.

    Just wear ski masks or cleverly pour into RS or AC buckets before showing up at customers property.

    Thompson’s is the best for just about anything, especially that fancy ipee wood.

    The more the better!

    Kris, I've been looking to hire a salesperson for the last few years. No one decent called. I was planning on paying commission only 20-30%. Thanks for reminding me of the webinars Thad.

    Yep, be sure to check them out, Tom. I know you said the printing discount was a big savings but be sure to use your PWRA membership to the fullest. We have added so many new benefits since you joined!

    Sidebar note as per Conversation with Robert today--Here is the PWNA BOD's the first year I served. This was at a PWNA Convention in Dallas around 2004/2005. That Sport Jacket was given to me from Rod Rodriguez because they wanted us in Suit jackets for this picture. I think I only owned one then and I didn't bring it. If you can zoom in you will see my shoes. I walked a mile plus in the snow every day to be at this Convention because I was to naive to book in the room block.

    I look back on this and I wish then we had been more involved with BMP's.

    Today I am happy to serve with my fellow PWNA Enviro chairpersons even though its been challenging already. If its not a challenge then what's the point:biggrin:

    John, who is the guy second from the right on the first row?

    Don't be silly Thad. That wouldn't be right to count every account that was ever created on the forum as a member. I'm sure that's why y'all don't do as neither do we.

    I've explained our membership On here more than once. If anyone can't figure it out they're welcome to search my posts or give me a call.

    Oh, absolutely, that was an inside joke with Charlie and a couple of others.

    When the PWR forum when live it had over 5000 members and Chris and I had “member since 2008” as well as all existing users because our forum guy cloned WCR and all that carried over. A couple of the usual people did a lot of moaning and squealing that I had been secretly building it while I was on the ***** BOD and what a horrible person I was. Charlie was one of the few people who actually called to find out what was what. We had a good laugh when I told him how we got that many members over night.

    It was an attempt at levity on my part. I’m sorry if I came off the wrong way.

    Sorry if I derailed the conversation.

    I would like to know all of the committee's and who are the members (both BOD and non).

    John,

    From the way it looks there are only around 80 paid members. Not sure where the 300 is coming from. Maybe thats the amount of BBS members?

    I think PWRA membership just went up by about 7000%, if I did the math right.

    I like it!
