Ok - So today I'm thinking again about how much this sucks & what can be done, when it occurs to me... Why hasn't someone (with more talent than I in this department) taken this and attempted to make this story go VIRAL on the web?!
Then tonight I get an email advertisement from Chili's. They're looking for a new Jingle for their Baby Back Ribs promo. After watching it, I immediately think to myself, (Cue the jingle music) - "I want my Buell Back, Buell Back, Buell Back, Buell Back! I want my...." Sample video here: http://www.facebook.com/Chilis
Just brainstorming here, but surely we must have a lot of very creative & talented people on here that could write, produce, shoot, upload, etc, a video that presents "the story" that we're all feeding on in these pages. Make it funny, satirical, serious, a combination, or whatever - but CAPTIVATING, so that it spreads like a virus & get's national attention. Take the bits & pieces that we know, from any number of reliable sources & spin it for the masses!
I have a couple of other ideas for a viral video or spoof to spread the word... (Spoof of an investigation or filing a police report about "my bike" getting stolen. ...I'd like to file a report...)

In the days before I took the trip to East Troy, Last ride...I drove my gf crazy cuz I was singing that Billy Joel song: "We didn't Start the Fire" ... Changed "WE" to "BUELL" but...when he spits out the fast rap... well.. City.. YOU take it over man!!
"Buell didn't Start the Fire" ... (blah blah blah i mostly just hummed the rest...lol)
Im just a no talent had with a knack for copy change.
Actually it is the way I taught myself Russian. I would take the words of the songs I new by heart and copy change them into Russian. Bob Seager, Springsteen, Eagles, the long story songs worked the best. Then I got with my roommate in college and he gave me the real run down on how the natives speak. I am still working on Copy Changing Walden into Russian. One painful paragraph at a time.
I will work on the Billy Joel. Somebody else will have to sing it and produce the video. (no fat numa numa viral youtube sing from me though)
We are back We will not be quieted We will not try to blend in Disappear into the background or play second fiddle When we are out on the Track the street, or back in the woods You'll know its US We're not like the others We wont ever try to be We are our own brand of Hooligans We are Buell And we will not tone it down
