Hi Dino, Glad to hear from you. It was a lot of fun meeting you and your lovely lady. Look forward to seeing you both next time I am out that way  It has snowed here a couple times since I got back and it has been sticking on Pikes Peak. But I jump on the V-Rod every chance I get in between the weather And ride like a  cause you never know when it will change and this time of year it can drop to below freezing in no time. Gotta keep it under 100 mph or your lips freeze off ! Colorado gets a lot of sunny days all through the year. (about 315) So if you wear layers (lots of them) than you can sneak in a ride once in a while through the winter. I just hope its a better winter this year than last. Almost got 5K on her since Laguna Seca;> Catch ya later. | ||

and you wouldn't even let me leave a little rubber on the driveway when I was there this spring. what was i thinking?!?!? sorry BBB, must not have reached beertical mass yet when you asked.  you now have an open invitation to paint a smiley in our driveway anytime you're in the neighborhood. (and you REALLY shoulda been here for Oktoberfast - there were LOTS of bikes with rear tires just begging to go out in one last blaze of glory, which, i suppose, would have tied right in with the impromptu "Who's got the loudest pipes?" contest the boys threw at two in the morning...) | ||

Ground Control to Forger Tom: btw, wanted you to know that the significance of the your haiku edit - from "friend to the end" to "friend in the end" - was not lost on me. happy hump day. | ||
| Ebear |
DAMN!!!!Wish We'd been there at two in the morning!!I guarantee you the Yellow X1 would've won THAT contest....Race pipe totally DEVOID of packing and (to steal one from Ferris!)Beertical Mass having been achieved!!   | ||
| Sandblast |
Yeah, that started with Al selling pipes if I remember (he was just showing a potential buyer the differences). But it quickly degenerated into a contest-like show of manliness. My stock exhausted M2 faired very badly, seems I have the Honda Civic of the bunch... SORRY D! | ||
| Jerry_haughton |
hmmm, recognizing that the ThunderDome's garage resembles - among other things - a large, nearly acoustically perfect speaker box (designed, perhaps, by Dr. Amar Buells?) pointing out over the local Sierra foothills, one wonders what our fellow Woffordians thought about the Contest of Manliness??? | ||
| Sandblast |
About that whole neighbor thing- yeah, hmmm. See, the problem is that Oktoberfast is so good that you get caught up in the moment sometimes. It almost felt like your subjects down the hill, uh, I mean neighbors down the hill, were really just there as a back-drop, kinda like extras in a movie. Our collective apologies. | ||

Hey, it wasn't a minute past 1:30 when we had the pipe-a-thon.... Oh, did you start yours, Shawn? I didn't hear anything...   | ||

This is a small taste of what I was threatening. Grotesque pinkish mass In a blue can on a shelf Quivering alone Like some spongy rock A granite, my piece of Spam In sunlight on my plate Oh Argentina! Your little tin of meat soars Above the pampas The color of Spam Is natural as the sky: A block of sunrise Little slab of meat In a wash of clear jelly Now I heat the pan Ears, snouts, and innards, A homogenous mass Pass another slice In the cool morning I fry up a slab of Spam A dog barks next door Pink tender morsel Glistening with salty gel What the hell is it? Cube of cold pinkness Yellow specks of porcine fat Give me a spork please Old man seeks doctor "I eat Spam daily," he says Angioplasty Oh tin of pink meat I ponder what you may be: Snout or ear or feet? Highly unnatural The tortured shape of this "food" A small pink coffin Slicing your sweet self Salivating in suspense Sizzle, sizzle...Spam Pink beefy temptress I can no longer remain Vegetarian | ||

The Spam Haikus I posted were from one of the myriad Spamku pages. However, here is an original pink verse. Digestible mail? Spam is not email but meat Is it MacMammal? | ||

Denise wrote...."And, BTW, I DID make it home the same day as FB." LOL..that is too funny! Now FB, aren't you the gentlemanly type like me who keeps D company like I did when Dino was not around? Don't worry D, I'll save you from the bears again next year, just like this year, as FB leaves you to fend for yourself amongst the forest of twisties! | ||

Ferris: I have the last poster you sent me proudly displayed with some great Buell memorabilia. Do NOT send a poster of that boy belly shot. You are making my will weak...... Good to hear about Don Sabatino....great Bueller who's been in the mix a good long time, give him my best. | ||

Any of you Oktoberfasters recognize this scene. First one to correctly identify the location wins an invitation to Oktoberfast 2005! (sorry for the low res)  (Message edited by dino on December 21, 2004) |
