...damn, there's some serious slacking going on here. Almost 10:00 and no GMT thread! So, this is my first good morning thread.. Be gentle.

Everyone have a good night last night? It poured rain here for a little while, some nice lightning.. I love thunderstorms, just sat in my car and enjoyed the show for a bit. My cat disagrees with my enjoyment, though - he was freaked out and hid under the futon the whole time.

How'd things go yesterday, Mark? Good coffee & conversation?

Have a good day everyone...

More frigging weekly reporting for me today. I am so sick of writing the same stuff every week.

The worst thing about it is, I was just told that I am on this client's next project.

 

[BikeGeek]

Not much happened yesterday for me. I sent a resumé off to Burton and am keeping my fingers crossed. I also played a great game of "find the squeak" with my SS. The bike won.

New job lined up Jozz?

 

[Echo]

Morning - sorry to be late to the already late GMT thread - good job on picking up the Slack BV!

Coffee and conversation went really well last night. So all in all a very positive date with a nice hug at the end.

Looking forward to this weekend!!!

 

[JRB]

Good f'n morning yo.

 

[binary visions]

Well congratulations to Jozz and IAB..

...Jozz now can ride his bike all the time, being jobless, and IAB can cease riding his bike at all, now that he's a homeowner and will have no time to ride...

RE: find the squeak, I had to do that several weeks ago when my cat decided to bring a live mouse in off the porch

New tattoo? Details please, what will it be and where is it going?

 

[binary visions]

Why? Thinking of getting P - I - M - P tatooed on your knuckles?

 

[McGRP01]

Left arm is getting a 1/2 sleeve from shoulder to elbow. It will be a traditional Japanese style sleeve centering around a Koi. I go to get the outline and shading done tomorrow (5 hour session) and then will get the color put in as $$ allows. My first new ink in 7 years!!! I'm sooo psyched!!

 

[MMcG]

Why? Thinking of getting P - I - M - P tatooed on your knuckles?

Nope, the gold bling would just cover up the Tattoo if i did that!

 

[Shyrmp]

Good Morning/Afternoon!

Had a pretty relaxing evening, watched "The Girl Next Door" and had carne asada tacos....it was a good night.

Congrats on the good date last night Mark!

Have a great day!

I know I feel like such a Traitor to my own cause
But I demoed an HID a predro's fest , and it just blew my Mind at how bright it was , and how litltle power it consummed. so I started doing research on making my own. And I found the actual manufacturer of the HID bulbs that all the systems use ( they all use the same Solar-tec bulb and Ballast ) and it was $50 for the Ballast and $160 for the Bulb! and with Being able to get the whole system with New batteries ( mine are getting old and showing it too ) for $270 , I decided to treat my self.

But I will use a Partial Home made on my Bars. Last week I got an Old Specilized Pro- Veiw for $10 on ebay. it only retailed for $29 , but it had a Nice 12W head lamp with both Helmet and Bar mount ,. what it 's problem was it was suppoes to use 5 D batteries. I just got a plug and hooked it up to one of my Nicads , and it runs Great ! ( by the Way Babs this is one you can use if you come and ride with us at night) as for the 24 Hr at lake placid , sorry , I Already have schedule conflicts. Sorry.
