I used to spend a bulk of my time in the DH forum, but like Westy said, it was to get input and feedback to get my crappy 2000 Kona Stinky to take 10' drops to flat :rofl:

There is part of me that would LOVE a new rig, but there are so many other things $5k can get me, I just keep rocking the stable I have.

Now I come for the PAWN forum to get the latest news. :tinfoil:

<edit> Knuckle mad a cameo a few days ago, I think.

<edit2> I'm high, sorry. "last active Sep 9, 2014"

In a van.... down by the river
I was referred to teh Monkey eons ago by a long departed member whom I used to pedal with. He said the Lounge fucks were complete bozos and he was right...haven't heard from him in years, but his advice still rings true.

A finer bunch of internet cranks I have never known. But I spend most of my time looking for free porn anyway, so what do I know anyway?
Partsy?

The DH forum is more what started this thought in my head, I am ready to take it off of my toolbar on my browswer...And it was a homepage at one point...it is a bummer.

Ever since that Manhattanprjklseityu032975273t0qweuto left it has been a sad place around here. :(

Fortunately we'll always have:


You know what's funny, I completely lost contact with that guy and just started hanging out with him again a few weeks ago...I think we were 21 in that pic, that was in LA...

I've been noticing the same thing with the lack of good content. I don't know if the market has changed, I've changed or what. I've got kids now, just ride the same ol bike I've had for years (though I did buy a new x-Fusion fork the other day!!). We don't bash on Stoney much any more, bashing on Mmike isn't much fun. Heidi is gone, Freak is gone, BMX Man, Orven, Loo...

Speaking of which, that chick from India called for you again. She wanted to know why you stopped ordering glitter in bulk. Apparently you were their number one customer and their business is not doing so well.
I quit the Glitterz for health reasons some time ago. Things are better. Everything seems to be all healed up. Those little bumps it seems come with age and not from any level of infection.

Glitter comes from India? I had no idea.

I have no idea where I am
The courtesy phone represents our infinite potential. It can only be accessed if you truly believe in yourself.

That or it is just the phone number to a really good mescaline dealer.
Yeah but it doesn't have any buttons or a dial. It just rings occasionally. I don't even know the number. Freaking useless.

Still have no idea why jd wants it so bad. Very overrated in my opinion.
