  1. HA! I need to send this to a few people.
  2. Since we can't use the real words: HECK GEE WHIZ GOSH DARN HECK HECK HECK SHUCKS that scared the HECK out of me. I think I went wee wee on myself. I kinda like those things.
  3. I hereby christen thee "Madame Penelope Kay Hackensack-Monteburry III" but I'll just call you "Ruth P. Avacado" for short.
  4. I'm offended by smilies. I find them sardonic, hackneyed and banal. Except for this one
  5. Brook is there anyway you could do that to my bank account? I don't mean withdraw $17.95 for hot lovin....the balance part is what I'm interested in.
  6. LMAO Thats not very nice. I have a set of stock pegs for sale too.
  7. Is that boob sweat or did she maybe spill some of her juice box on her tits?
  8. Go for a drag port and alcohol. I hope to do at least one of those mods eventually.
  9. Yeah me too. Well, before I starting making billet pegs. I had a translucent blue on mine and they didn't look too bad 2 years later. Like the other said. they only place the PC had worn off is where my boots rubbed it off, and where the kick starter smashes into the right peg.
  10. The turn around time would be 30 years. Blaine, yes I think he is getting one of those machines to work his leg and knee around. From what my uncle that had this done 8 months ago said he will actually wake up from surgery in this thing.
  11. LOL I prefer the roast beef sandwich look. Although the Castro eating a piece of London Broil isn't bad from time to time.
  12. Thats good to hear... I've been on his ass to rehab properly. Especially with winter coming up. Don't need him slipping out in the snow. Gonna have to do something like get a bunch of DVD's and park him in front of the computer for a while. Bansheefreak, I'll let you know asap. Probably when I get a break later today.
  13. Yeah isn't is supposed to be Brookwithaneontheendofit?
  14. How much you need for the polished front brake system? Gotta be the newer style too. What about discs?
  15. Yes it is. A buddy of mine bought one new back in 99 and we compared his to mine. Mine wasn't as misaligned as his was, but his front left wheel stuck out nearly 4 inches further than the rear, but the right side was perfectly aligned. Its just Genuine Yamaha Tuning. They do some stuff right, but I'm not a fan of the asymmetrical frame thing.
  16. You would be surpised at the work that has come in in the last 3 months. We even had a job that was due on Sept 29th that wasn't even off the freakin saw yet. We call the guy, tell him our situation, he says "Thats ok. Here, I got 2 more PO's for you" WTF? Then his boss calls, she gives us 2 more jobs on top of that. I have about 15-20 PO's sitting on my desk, 1/2 of them I haven't even started yet. Its good to have that much work in to be honest. I HATE when there isn't work to be done. Told another customer the same thing. He said 'Dont worry about it. I'll be by next week to drop off some more work." What these companies we work for are doing, is giving us the work and then giving us about 3x the time to get it all done. They know we deliver quality, and why take a chance on some other shop when we've been doing their work for years.
  17. www.dunedevilinc.com Thanks for the words. We've been told although its quite an intrusive operation, with the cutting of the muscles and grinding on the bones for the replacement caps, he won't be in anymore pain, and they go fairly smoothly. His other knee is perfect. This knee has given him problems his whole life. He had an old school knee surgery when he was 18, and its always given him problems. Now its bone to bone and is constant droning pain. We're hoping no more problems with him as well. Shit, I think I do quite a bit until he isn't at the shop. Then I see how little I really do in 10 hours.
  18. Shit is hitting the fan here at work and I'm going to have to extend lead times on parts and products from less than 1 week to around 4 weeks or more. My pops is going in for knee replacement surgery on tuesday, and we are currently backlogged around 4-6 weeks with me working 12's, 6 days per week. He's putting in 12's as well. While he's out, I'll be the only guy in the shop with the exception of some part time help we've aquired, but for the most part I'll be so flowering busy I won't have time for much. He'll be out for 2 weeks in bed, then when he can finally stand up, he won't be able to do anything much for about 3-4 months. Just didn't want to leave anyone hanging. Any current orders I have will be filled in a timely manner, and after next week is when I'll have to ask for quite a bit more lead time. I do have some stock billet on hand, some is polished some isn't, and I have carriers for conversions etc, and some steel cut for swingarms, but any new billet will have to be scheduled with everything else. Swingarms will be pushed back 4 weeks or so. I'm not saying I don't want the business, I'm just letting everyone know their shit is going to take a lot longer than usual. Also, if someone happens to not see this next week, as is my policy, I keep all funds in my pay pal account until the item is shipped. So if I need to issue a refund I can do it quickly. With that being said, it might all change in 2 weeks. Thats the nature of the beast. When you are self employed plan on not planning anything.
  19. Are you doing ok now? I know how hard it can be to overcome seeing something like that. Its like the first time you see a cat get run over and evicerated and you don't feel like eating for a week.
  20. Meat Sandwich is one of my favorite GWAR songs. That and Fish f**k.
  21. Sounds like a job for Santa.
  22. I swear to god I heard nearly that very thing at a GWAR concert once. Then out came the dancing penguins.
  23. I wanted to get SOCOM since the beginning but opted for the GTA:VC Got GTA:SA, and can't wait for the PS3 to come out. Is SOCOMIII good? I'm down for a new game.
  24. Oh shit! Be sure to wave to people with your right hand. Put it up high so they can see you. I was gonna make my own costume now 2 years in a row. I'm still in the planning stages as it were. I think it would be awesome to be a Lego person for halloween.
