*********************************************************************************
Dear Craig
 
First of all allow me to Ritsu-Rei, or bow to you as the code of Karate dictates. And now allow myself to introduce myself as dictated by the eternal code of the Samurai, I am Tug Peters, I am from the House of Ryu a sacred school of combat and wisdom located in the GreenValley Shopping Plaza, I am a second tier Brown belt recipient, learned under the expert training of Sensei Leonard Titacus also known as Lenny Tits, I was born in the year of the Monkey and I am compatiable with Tigers and other Monkeys, but should steer clear of Rabbits and Dragons. I am honored to find another student of combat and a military artisan such as yourself. I would very much like to find myself in possession of your Belt Display, however I am currently unable to produce the funds necessary to obtain said display from you. I am, however available for numerous oddjobs and handywork, I am experienced in the following duties:
  • Painting the fence
  • Waxing cars
  • Picking up jackets
  • Pruning small trees such as bonzais
I am a very good student and could master other duties in a short amount of time. Please contact me with any questions or proposals for acquiring you Belt Display.

Dear Craig

I saw your ad for Dockage, and I am writing to inquire as to whether you have ever Dry Docked one? Something I am very interested in. Please contact with details.

Tug

sorry no

***********************************************************************************
Dear Craig

I understand that you don't provide dry dockage, it seems that the more I ask around, dry dockage is a fairly uncommon practice these days. Would your dockage facilitate an Upper Decker?

***********************************************************************************
Tug

not sure what you mean by Upper Decker?

***********************************************************************************
Dear Craig

My boat is an Upper Decker, it's a 1979 Party Barge made by Cleavland Steamer, meaning that in additon to the main concourse there is a second tier poop deck. Could you facilitate my special needs?

See you in the funny pages

I'm in need of an artist that is capable of drawing comic book style drawings based on some photos taken at the Packard Plant downtown. My friend's birthdays are coming up and I think it would be a nice personal gift to give them. There are four photos that would need to be drawn. If I'm correct in suggesting the medium, I would like it to be done in a marker. Do not repsond if you cannot draw like a comic book artist.
***********************************************************************************
Dear Craig

I am writing in response to your ad for a Comic Book artist. I am very interested in taking this project on, and being a fan of the Packard Plant myself I may be of some service to you. I would need to see the photos first before I could draw them. When you say comic book style are you suggesting SuperHero/Spiderman art? I do not do superhero art per say, however I do work in comics. I have been a guest artist for Tom Wilson on the comic strip Ziggy several times, I have studied under Bill Keane of Family Circus fame in 1992 at the Comicon convention in a 45 min seminar/workshop detailing facial expressions, and I have had some semi lucrative success with my very own online comic Tuggin' Peters. I am currently between publishers and it's a real pain in the whoodily to get syndicated, so I am in need to take on projects such as yours for some extra bones. Anywho, I could probably knock this out for just a couple of hundred bucks, plus supplies, and mileage as I will need to visit the Packard Plant for inspiration. I will not be using markers, I'm thinking just a #2 pencil is gonna look real nice and lend itself to encompass some real entricate shading work. So just e-mail those photos and we can get started.

btw I've attached some of my work

Let's Swap

Im selling my house in Marblehead so we can move to a comprable house in the Port Clinton school district. I'm not sure if any PC ppl are looking to do the opposite or not... maybe downsize or upsize or just make a new start. My house is in a quiet backroad off rt 269 N with almost 2 acres, a large pool and a 7 man hot tub :) You can see all of the details of my house including pics at the following link:
*********
We would need at least 3 bedrooms or the space to make 3 rooms, 2 baths and preferrably a basement. If you're interested then call or text me (Brian) at ***-***-****.. Thanks and God bless!

Dear Craig

I'm almost in awe of the fact I stumbled upon your ad. I own a beautiful 4 bedroom craftsman in Port Clinton on a tree lined cul-de-sac. My wife and I have been looking to downsize and like you said just make a new start. We've been looking to make alot of changes really, if you know what I mean. I took a quick peek at your listing and really like the place, now when you say 7 man hot tub, is that truly based of the porportions of a man, could you possibly fit 8 women in that tub? My wife and I entertain quite often and the hot tub would be a real SWINGING spot to relax, right? House swapping seems like an exciting and ideal solution to our needs. I love swapping , I swap just about everything, I swap chewing gum, I swap information with people I want to keep in touch with, I love going to swap meets, I swap out parts in old cars, I'm a WASP and if you swap the letters in WASP you get swap. Is there anything besides houses that you like to swap? Look foward to hearing from you Craig. I've attached a photo of the house, and one of the misses...hint hint

***********************************************************************************
Aye Yo Craig

Was crackin' Craig...I'ma get that pitbull? So he brindle right? That's nice, man, that's real nice wit the stripes an all. What he weigh? Do he eat alotta food? How much steaks I gotta give him in like a two day time frame? Do he come with a bed and some toys? I'ma have my boy TeeJay bring his dad's post hole diggers to my spot up here on thrusday, and we gonna get that fence popping. Do you think he like chainlength or PVC? PVC be expensive though. How much times you gotta clean hims teeth? Do he bite? I bet he try and bite when you clean hims teeth, cause he don't know that cleaning teeth is important though. Well lemme know when I'ma pick him up.
