Got my new phone today!!!!

Nope, still not cool enough for an iPhone. But this is pure android goodness. I love that little green robot guy.

This can't be right

The Twins are actually winning against the Yankee's. Is this a sign of the apocalypse? Probably not. Unless they win. Then its time to get in the Bunker.

Out/in before the rain

Last week I changed one of the jets in the Carb and today I changed the Carb mounting bracket. So after a little fiddling around (and then adjusting the Carb) I had to go around the block. And about 30 minutes later its raining. For once, my timing couldn't have been any better.

Pull the rope

This cool sign was by the door exiting the car wash. The stick figure really helps you know what to do.

Back in black

I guess there is some truth to the "once you go black .. ." Because I painted the exhaust black yesterday. Maybe this doesn't make a whole lot of sense because the pipes were never black on this bike. But the pipe was black on the SR. So there is that. And (this is going to fly in the face of everything you've been told) I think the black makes the pipes look smaller. Weird.

Unleashing the fury

It's working! It's working!!

This is probably the smallest thing this saw has ever cut. I just had to try something and I didn't want to cut through something big that I might use later.

Birthday present

I finally got my birthday present in position (Susie and I actually picked it up on my birthday but I had some rearranging to do to make some space for it). Yeah, it's big. And hopefully we'll have it hooked up tomorrow. Then I can cut through damn near anything (including my limbs). It should be pretty sweet.

3 years ago . . .

Yeah, it was three years ago today that Susie and I got to ride in a classic Rolls Royce. Something like that you just don't forget.

Oh yeah, we got married too.

Whip 'em out

I got mine out. Get yours out.

Alternate text: When in doubt I whip it out, got me a rock 'n roll band, it's a free for all (sweet guitar riff).

Burninating metal

I'm finally back to working on the ol' 400. This big chunk of metal is going to be part of the frame. I'm just welding the outside seams so I can grind/sand them smooth (the inside seams are all welded so I have that for strength).

Leaving on a jet plane

Yeah, we're finally leaving Florida. Major bummer. But at least we got to see an act of kindness while getting on the plane. A guy a couple of rows up from us got pretty upset because someone else was moving his bag in the overhead bin. Apparently there was something fragile in it. He even called the guy "an ass" after he moved his bag. And then he got up and got his bag out of the overhead bin. Here's a crazy idea, if you have something fragile in your carry-on bag (or bags because it seems foolish to check your main suitcase) you should probably just hang on to it and put it by your feet. But that's just my crazy idea. Airports/airplanes are fun.

1:30 am

So we decided to go back to the Magic Kingdom since they are open 24 hours today. We got here about 11:30 and there are about 1 million (I counted each person) people here so we're going to leave.

This could be you

Yeah, this could be you. If you want to fit the HD® marketing team's concept of today's motorcycle rider. I'll pass.

Awww

I won finally

I finally beat Susie on buzz! !! It was pretty close though.

Hottest ticket at Disney

Freaky cat statues

These cat statutes are freaking me out. It's like their eyes are looking into my soul. Freaky.

The happiest lion

This lion looks so happy and the zebras look so scared. Nothing like learning about the food chain while having some pizza. I made the pizza "my zebra".

First spot

Yeah, that's our Fiat. It's like the Fiat of cars.

Too early

We got to the Animal Kingdom so early that the parking wasn't even open yet. That's what we get for leaving 13 minutes ahead of schedule. And there are two other cars waiting, so its not just us.

The droids we're looking for

We almost got stepped on

Good ol' Bobby Vinton

We're eating at Mama Melrose's at Hollywood studios and it just so happened that we're sitting at the same table as last year. Right next to Bobby. He's so dreamy.

I want to go there


The Barber Motorsports Park looks awesome. I've seen a bunch of pictures of it before but you don't really get a sense of the size of the place from pictures. Some day I'll have to see it.

So many colors

These are just workstation (that's a fancy way to say "cubicle" or maybe "cubicle" isn't politically correct) signs for a certain paint company located in Minneapolis. We originally made 400 of these. But every once in a while they need a few more.

T-wolves

We went to check out the wolves tonight. It was pretty fun and we're not big bball fans. I suggest checking them out.

Hole sawing

Just putting a 2" notch in an 1.375" pipe and jamming to Tom Petty.
