I just tried to look you up in the membership dealey, but no such luck. I remember a post where you where dissing Cook Neilson. Basically, you were calling him a whore. Well, BFD! Back in the day... I just read his review of the Super Glide in Cycle, ah, sorry, make that Cycle World. Nothing short of freaking genius. Listen to this: "All car people-and you probably already know this-are blind, catatonic, cranky, over-or-under-caffeinated, narcoleptic, on the phone and reading a newspaper. They've either had a bad day at the office or are driving toward one. They're always headed into the sun behind a dirty windshield, peering under top loop of the steering wheel, and the radio is on the wrong station. Their stock just cratered, their CFO's in jail and they themselves have been indicted. They're splenetic (whatever the freak that means), they're drunk, that last little snort of crack cocaine is starting to hit home, they're groping for the sticky-bun that just landed on the floorboards, they're late for bowling and their daughter is knocked up." Jesus H Freaking Christ!!!! Did the man nail it or whut!!!! As somebody who rode a motorcycle before he ever drove a car, all I have got to say is: "Wave on, brother. Let that freak flag fly. High. Higher!" Your fascist, baby killing, take food from children's mouths, warmonging brother -- Dale
It is pretty funny when you examine the posts made on Fchat since around X-mas. Very, how do you say, saucey?
Dale: All I remember is his review of two bikes: H1 Kawasaki, and the 6 cylinder Honda. He said both were great handlers. He was full of ****. The H1 wiggled, and the Honda was a pre-production prototype. When John Ulrich published the truth in Cycle News, Cook got him fired, and black listed by Honda, it took John 10 years to get back into the mainstream. Cook writes great fiction. Stop drinking, sober up, and let me know about your handover. Art
Oh, I wasn't sure. I was under the impression that the joke had to be FUNNY for it to be humorous I'm just bustin' your balls!
Damn it! I was rushing to find that exact pic hoping to post it before you did! I'll get you Darth.........NEXXXXXXXXXT TIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIME! Image Unavailable, Please Login
Actually, I was pissed off because I wanted to send Art a PM, but I couldn't find his user name. I thought it started with yellow, but it doesn't. (BTW, is anyone aware of how many sub forums are on this thing? I always use "new posts" so I haven't paid attention. I'm surprised that there is not one for midgets who drive Fiats while talking on the cell phone.) Anyhow, Art and I are old motorcycle guys. I'm older, but he is a better rider. (Anybody who can hang with Kenny Roberts gets a thumbs up in my book even if he is a, well, a uh, geeze it's Christmas so I guess that I shouldn't call Art a commie pinko.) But Art has a thing about grudges. I'm wondering if he is part Sicilian because he is a touchy son-of-a-gun. Art started a post about an old motorcycle writer named Cook Neilson. He called him a ho because he didn't tell the truth when his magazine, Cycle, did new bike reviews. Imagine that. Motorcycle and car magazines not telling the truth about products made by their advertisers. Keep in mind that these bogus reviews were written over 30 years ago. See what I mean about grudges? More specifically, Art was complaining about a review that Cook wrote about the new Harley Super Glide in Cycle World. Well, last night I picked up that edition and read it for the first time. I DON'T CARE IF COOK NEILSON IS A HO. THE SOB CAN WRITE! His description of cage drivers is the best ever. Does this mean that I'm gonna run out and buy a Super Glide? I doubt it. But those retro ducks advertised in the same mag look pretty cool... Dale ps For those who thought I was drunk, I'll take it as a compliment. I'm high on life baby! pps I think that I'm going to start all my posts in the general forum from now on. I don't have a clue anymore where things are supposed to go.
Dale: Haven't you got my cell number? If not, drop me a PM, and I'll provide it. As for Cook, he did a dirty to a very good friend of mine, and you're right I won't forget it. As for the grudes, I'm not a Christian, I don't turn the other cheek, its probably a major flaw, but it is what it is. I'm older than you though 5/8/44. Happy new years Art
