Not one itsy bitsy bit. Didn't need it to begin with. Just outta **** to change on the 'ol Frankster...........

 

[mr.paul]

Whoa! Shows you what I know. I didn't know there were that many people that close to me that had such impeccable taste in Motorcycles!

Wish I could join the group, but unfortunately have to work that day. i already have a Bodie relay but would have loved to go anyway.

Just hope you can keep the Radman under control. If he decides to ride to this, somebody stop him!

Have great time yooz guyz.

This morning, I opened the packages the components were shipped in.

I knew we were going to have enough components for seven relays. I figured we would have one spare in case we messed up something on one of the other six.

I'll give you guys the full story Saturday, but I think it's save to say:

[SIZE=12pt]We have room for one more.[/SIZE] We'll be able to assemble seven relays on Saturday.

.. and there's plenty of room for those not building relays. It might be worth a trip from Téjas. You night find something in the liquor cabinet you like more than Jim Beam.

Those pics memorabilia from your "chasin' the dragon" days, rad?

 

[radman]

Last call. And odie? No. Only needles in me deliver insulin. Got sick a while back, needed/did a lot of morphine. Frankly, I cannot for the life of me understand how anyone could enjoy that **** enough to wanna fire it up.

 

[Joe2Lmaker]

Yup.

I was going to post a photo of a "meth smile" after odot's dragon comment.

I did a Google image search of "meth smile". It was just too sad and too depressing to post a photo making fun of those sick, adicted, smiles.

We'll be sticking strictly to gateway drugs tomorrow!

Fun Fun Fun!

Joe,

Thanks for hosting the gathering today and providing the grub!

It was great getting together with everyone.

A big shout out to Brodie for all the help with the harness relay stuff!!!

It was great meeting some new folks that share the same enthusiasm for cycles.

Even Radman was on his best behavior. I don't think he was on the meth cocktail.

Although, I did see him licking and chewing wires.... Hmmm, must be his way of

dealing with ******** like myself!! Hahahahahaha!!

Thanks again, hope to see you all soon.

[Gramps]

Thanks Joe!!

It was great to see everyone & get our (or at least my) mind off the mind numbing, overly long winter season and have in depth discussions about my favorite topics....guns, sex & motorcycles. :yahoo:

Hope we can all get together for a ride this Spring.

 

[Joe2Lmaker]

We had a beautiful January day!

A warm front gave us a high temperature 30 degrees warmer than it was just the day before!

Notice the ice on the edges of the heated birdbath:

That's what happens when the high temperature is -10 for a few days (I don't know what the low was)

This is about as good as it gets:

Here's a shot of the forum members that were in attendance:

Starting from the left, and going clockwise: Gramps, Wicked Webby, Scoobyvroom, MNFJR05, radman & Tom A.

Two of my buddies are not in the frame.

Good times. I hope you poor bastards in the southern latitudes aren't too jealous. :****:

 

[Tom A.]

Joe:

Thanks for the beer, food and hospitality. It was fun to see the local cast of forum characters assembled in one place. It was a scary bunch,... just my kinda folks.

Sorry to grab #2 and run, I hope you guys finished. Thanks to everyone who assembled my harness while I ate Tootsie Rolls. I hope my supervision was adequate.

Tom

 

[Scoobyvroom]

Thanks again Joe for the hospitality. Don't worry check is in the mail. Here are some pictures I took...

Joe the chef...

Mmmm meat is good...

Good part abot Minnesota you don't need a fridge...

Thanks Brodie for the Tootsie Rolls..

SNICKERS!!!

I think brodie gave us the small shrink tube he had left over these wires where tight getting through there.

This is MNFJR05

Radman working hard..

Gramps hard at work even though he didn't take one home..

I have some other photos but right now photobucket is being a PITA..

 

[radman]

Rad working hard ******' it up. Note to assemblers-big ass brass terminals do NOT go on the relay block end......... :glare: Like my hair? Thats what a big dose of Mobil1 gear lube hairdressing will do for ya. Had spent the day slapping rear axle seals in the Grand Marq, only to have it, on the hoist no less, blow a rear brake hard line (Minnesota salt corroded) on the post assembly run up. Better than the freeway, I guess, but no time to shower afterwards, so I grabbed a clean work shirt and hauled ass to the party. Which was well worth attending, great chow, and great folks. Well, except the cops showed up. Well, one anyway. And turned out he was more interested in his phone, and you don't really wanna know why. :brunette:

 

[rickcorwn]

oh you bastages, I've had to work all weekend and now you taunt me with this! :dribble:

Nice selection of beer!

 

[PapaUtah]

Joe,

Your hospitality was most gracious! Thank you. Webby your phone was, well, err, umm, a phone. We will leave it at that.

Perhaps we can organize a gathering this summer that includes the discharge of large caliber weapons.

See all of you at the Motorcycle Show in Feb...hopefully.
