Great pics from both of you. I am particularly pleased to see the absence of crack in Chimbly's set, those who were there know what I mean. All the talk of photoshop and spoke cards last night got me quite excited (yes i know how sad that is but I don't care) and my morning wanderings bought be to this excellent site (http://www.piratehaven.org/~beej/pirates/) I really like the wood cut prints.

I'll bring a copy of Repo Man. If you've got the cables,I'll burn a copy of those bike vids and we can run them from your laptop. Or does your DVD player handle mpgs?
Dyna, while you burning those Brunelle videos some of these clips from the Pedal (http://www.cinemacapital.com/pedal.html) documentary might be interesting (I'm not sure since I can't view them at work). And this promotional vid for the upcoming MonsterTrack (http://mysite.verizon.net/vze3vsmk/sitebuildercontent/sitebuilderfiles/monstertrackpromo.mov) might be interesting. Just use your own jusdgement as to whether or not these clips are worthy of public exposure.
britpac wants crack? http://f3.grp.yahoofs.com/v1/EKGhQ6GOI1Ir_sbP4-0Bl778mqX18G8n1EXIbxOWhm2npj6t9aXuHzeBh35FXhnrYdWnvK8sx1S42RsQJqTLBha1Mwg4kvuf1Q/cracks.jpg
Holy Roman Empire! Why'd you have to do that? Are we not civil creatures??
Can we not agree to a forum that is A) assless and B) goatless?
why? WHY????????

animatronic goats AND pirates (http://www.hj-figurer.dk/page114.aspx). hand-in-hand, people. end of story.
i think this i where chuck e cheese got their animatrons. I feel a deep-seated childhood connection to the chimpanzee band.
i think LBK is on to something, we should make a pillage that involves Chuck E Cheese

Ohhhhh, the weather outside is frightful...

And the interweb's sooooo delightful...
And since we've no place to riiiiide (or driiiink because the 500th open-bar office party this week was postponed for tomorroooooow because of aforementioned weatheeer)
let it go, let it go, let it goooo....
Peace, pirates and all ye friendly lurkers! Ridem if you can! Lucky goats.
who wants to ride to home base tonight?
Julie, I saw a bike with S&S couplers at College Park bikes today. It had polished/stainless lugs on each side of the coupler. It looked suhweet!
Lucky you.
So...I guess I'm the ninjapirate, it seems. Great photos Chimbly.
Is there riding to Home Base?
so Tink. How'd that sign work out for you?

sorry, K, i'm not willing to use the word "dong." it's just me. hope you don't mind being the ninja.
as for couplers, you should check out some of the possibilities on this website:
http://www.sandsmachine.com/carvlugs.htm
*mrowl* of course mine won't be gawdy and over the top... i'm trying to keep it simple.
seriously, though. here's what i'm really excited about: riding to and from every airport without having to lug or store some ugly hard case:

and brit, why do you need to go to bed at 11:30pm? that's odd. i don't get it.
Britpac
12-16-05, 08:19 AM
I had four meetings at work yesterday the first at 7:30am and I fell asleep in every one, I also fell asleep on the metro coming home, so I really needed to get some party prep sleep for the weekend, hence the need to be in bed at 11:30pm. Bikeforums and photoshop was keeping me up....
On subject of "dong", I agree with Chimbly dong is wrong, less dong more goat :)
Those couplers are sweet.

collard greens? yummy. make 'em veggie please. call me if you need help with a veggie recipe.
oh chimbly...the dong isn't as malicious as all that. originally, in exchanges with a friend or two, k-dog...was mistyped and the 'n' was inserted. it stuck. 'dong' wasn't the intent, rather the unsuspecting 'dog' had an erroneous run in with the letter 'n'.
please no hate on the k-dong. much love is intended. but YOU may call me the ninja if you want

The collet greens will be vegan! but someone will have to pick up garlic and 3 can of veggie broth.
If we get veggie broth, there may be pan fried noodles w 3 (san) mushroom sause..mmmmm also veggie, if not vegan. Q; is oyster flavored sause veggie?
Any Pirates or lurkers that do not have an idea of what to bring, I take $ :)
or please call me and we'll work it out
Anyone who would like to do their cooking here, please also call me to pre-arrange kitchen time.
<bleaT>

oyster sauce is not veggie.
i need oven time - 50 min.
and... what the hell are collet greens? are those collards you're talking about?
poopncow
12-16-05, 09:46 AM
:) collard, i'm a yankee for deuce's sake.
i said oyster "flavored", i'll check the ingredients. it is meant for the mushrooms, not collards. I'll make it alll work, don't worry :P
wow cooking for agang of pirates is as hard as cooking in jail

PNC, I don't know what you got for spices, but I will bring some of mine also. For those that don't know PNC and I will be man-handaling the Goat with lots of fire and smoke. It should be very good.

Yeah I know, suddenly, I got all this energy. The goat stuff, I'll can on Kenton,
Collard greens is easy 15 min stuff, nice to have a warm veggie,
if there is energy and tme and something missing, the pan fried noodles, also a cinch
may skip the other white meat.
costco is dangerous
re; spices
rosemary check
sea salt check
pepper corn check
montreal rub check
Gosh, this all sounds delightful. I will try to make from my work party in Bethesda. It won't be till late...so you all better be going hard. I know you will be. If there is any late night treat you guys want, i am listening.
