We have one here, but $2 tacos! I guess I was spoiled by the El Grullense truck in Vancouver who had just gone from $1 to $1.25 before we left.

Yes. I honestly can't remember the last time that I had Taco Bell.

But really, we're talking about Taco Bell, not about Mexican food.

Ah. I see. Point taken.

Sort of like deep-dish Chicago style vs Real Pizza. :D

Not an unfair assessment, I think.

I think he has a teenager or two in the house. :)

Hell, a couple of years ago you couldn't go anywhere without hearing that.

That was my first guess, but I have to ask just in case. You never know a person.

Really? I had no problem whatsoever. :lol:

Where do you get these things? After the Barney thing, I'm not even gonna open this one.

I am not sure which is more annoying, Barney the Dinosaur or Meghan Trainor. Should I start a poll?

I have two teenaged daughters, so I am peripherally exposed to pop culture crap.

Congrats to the new mods.

Congrats Dan on the new job!

Heal up well LoCell

Am I caught up now?

Oh yeah, Enjoy the weekend heathpack!

If I had any musical talent, I would do a video spoof of that song "I'm All About That Bike" a la Meghan Trainor. But I don't have any talent.

Maybe [MENTION=39975]patentcad[/MENTION] can take that idea and run with it. He has a little talent.

Chicago style hands down.

sbxx1985 04-21-17 10:36 AM

Damn. Good luck healing.

If we could have just kept you riding bicycles.

Hey all, I'm alive and somewhat well. I've had a rough couple of years due to a nasty motorcycle wreck. I've had four operations since, first an ankle scope, then two more knee scopes, followed by another ankle / knee procedure called the OATS procedure. For the last one they removed bone and cartilage from my knee and put it in my ankle. I finally got off of the crutches about five days ago after a little more than seven weeks. I've still got the air cast / boot for another five weeks. It's sucked and I have gained tons of weight.

My end goal is to be able to get back on a bicycle but at this point I'm really not sure if it is going to happen.

To pass the time I have been competing in car audio (sound quality, not bass) and managed to win a few world championships last year. I'm about to tear everything out of my vehicle and start over on that. It's a fun hobby and it gets me off of the couch. I've met a lot of really good people.

Here is a link to the video of my crash.

My brother in law rides motorcycles like LC. He crashed, landed on his gas tank, and his nut exploded. He's one nutted and still rides and races motorcycles.

A few dozen people just winced and shuddered reading this post.

After admitting I also know something about Taco Bell, I had to eat some broccoli to cleanse my mouth again. I didn't have any beet powder, so I almost feel it was a wasted opportunity.

Did that equate to one of everything on the menu?

On the upside, he didn't want kids.

Exactly.

I think there was considerable damage.

LAJ 04-21-17 10:50 AM

Getting injured rarely stops anyone from doing stuff they like.

[MENTION=443325]Scarbo[/MENTION] this was for you. Aren't you the devil-may-care Lancelover?

indyfabz 04-21-17 11:00 AM

Some nice Rapha stuff on sale. That Merino base layer is sweet.
