The UPS Delivery person knocks on the door and says "Another Kite?!" (True Story)
The UPS Delivery guy delivers to your lunchtime flying location instead of home because "He knew where you were" (Threatened by the UPS driver. He's
actually a pretty cool guy.)
You have 4 or more of the exact same kite "for stacking"
The local Kite dealer gives you a special price due to all of the referrals
The locals call you the "Kite Guy"

We did a thread like this a little while back
You know you're an addict when you buy a otter box for your iPhone that matches the color scheme of your favorite kite.
You know you're addicted to kites when you remember what's been posted on the Power Kite Forum a LONG time ago!3shot - 26-11-2013 at 03:56 PM
I was going to say when every extra dollar goes to kite stuff now instead of new door knobs for the bedrooms and bathrooms. Guide rods for the kitchen
drawer that's been broke forever, and the back gutter that needs a new downspout.
And, my post master now knows that backpacks are what new kites come in. Not for kid's school books. LOLWELDNGOD - 26-11-2013 at 04:02 PM

We need to discuss your definition of "clean"3shot - 26-11-2013 at 06:32 PM
Back OT. Every time you mention, or talk about a certain kite, your wife automatically thinks its the new one you want and ends the discussion soliver - 26-11-2013 at 07:51 PM
