This is the part where I obnoxiously name-drop some massive celebrity I rubbed shoulders with, but really all I did was snake one poor guy's line toward the port'o'pottie before the race.

You're a sticky bun.

So, there was a shooting right in front of my appartment last night. Apparently the guy is on life support so they're investigating as if it was a murder. I was out, but my roomate said he heard *POP POP POP* and tires squealing around 1:30am. ROTFL. Oh wait I mean ****. Thank god my parents are in Florida right now. My Mom would totally freak out.

I witnessed a bouncer ask sonambulant to take his sexy giro lid off on entering Lee's palace lastnight at the !!! show. Nice bumping into ya.

Anyone going to the island tomorrow?

That's what the ladies tell me. I'm heading to Kensington and maybe further afield (need a 14mm box wrench and a few other sundries) If anyone wants to hang out just punch my digits in your cellular (or landline (do those things even still exist??)) If not enjoy the day all.

I was at Dance Cave last night and saw the bus out front which made me wonder what show had been there. Now I know I missed a !!! show! Crap. I would totally have gone had I known.

Dan, wtf, you're up early... What gives? Anywho, I have to go on a "find a left crank arm for a friend's ailing fixie" mission today at various bike shops if you're up for riding about. I think Tobes wants to roll around too.

Danhalen 05-20-07 10:47 AM

Well I need to get a (sexy) grease gun. So I need to hit Crappy Tire. It looks beautiful outside and I actually feel a bit better today (who would have thought a few beers and no sleep would make my cold better...) so yeah I want like get outside and stuff.

Cool. I wouldn't mind going to Ukranian Tire to buy some shiat...

Danhalen 05-20-07 10:57 AM

hahaha nice one. So, who wants to grease inject some stuff this afternoon? mwahahaha. Maybe some bananas? Trees? Frying pan? Suggestions?

Actually, it was more of an incredulous "you're not wearing that inside, right?" :P Fashion tips from the bouncer, how embarrassing. ;)

And I had an extra ticket too.. I *did* ask if anyone here was a fan a couple weeks ago, but nobody responded.

Also: anyone else who's interested. Time to get in there, Jeremy!

i know! i'm ready and raring to go. next day off i'm off to the trails. sadly, i'm working tomorrow.

I_bRAD 05-20-07 04:47 PM

Just got back from kelso. Good times, but unless you just want to ride up and down the hill there's not much in the way of hills. There could also be more trails for 7 bucks.
The "x-treme" trail is pretty fun though.

Also, to re-hash the carbon mtb argument, I fell on some rocks today and the seat tube landed on a rock with all of my weight on it. If it had been carbon I'd have had a very expensive and upsetting walk back to the bottom of the hill.

nerdsgirth 05-20-07 06:18 PM

Welcome Toby!

Made pizzas the shape of bicycle wheels for dinner. This recipe is hands down the best one I know for homemade crust. I sub half brown flour, and make sure the pan is covered in corn meal.

Good recipe. I use a very similar one myself.

What about steel or titanium or aluminium or magnesium or bamboo or [miscellaneous alloy]?

Objection, your honor - speculation.

Well I know titanium came out OK. Carbon+impact on sharp rock= I can't believe it would have came out OK.

Is it just me or did a whole bunch of posts go missing (most notably Toby's introduction posts)?

Maybe it's just my compooter.

Weird.

Toby, your trolling wasn't clever enough, your use of insults & vulgarity wasn't subtle enough, and you need to utilize the rules of English grammar. We have a censor on this forum that turns certain words into asterisks, so when you use blatantly vulgar words, all we see is ********. That's boring and make you look stupid.

Don't be boring. That would be your worst mistake on the SSFG forum. Be clever and witty without being too nasty, and you'll find that much is overlooked by moderators.

WHOLEEE SMOKES THE IINTERNET IS SEERIUZ BIZZZNAS!!!1!1!!!
anyways sorry to those offended but once i getzz teh intrent i will try to be more tactfull N E WAIZ Peace 2 MY CREW SEE ya'll on the rode...
