"Yelling out of cars, turning your speakers out the window to blast your music onto the street, setting off M-80 firecrackers, firing automatic weapons into the airâ€"these are all well and good. But none of them create a merry atmosphere of insouciance and bonhomie quite like a revving motorcycle.

Gaspar, Melchior and Balthasar kicked me out of the band..... they said I didnt fit the image they were trying to project. 

So I went solo.  -Me

I think I noticed this at Miller last year...he wore an all white helmet with Pussy across the front IIRC.  [laugh]

I looked for some Pussy last night at the grocery store, and sadly couldn't find any. Bummer...I'm curious what flavor profile they went with.  [coffee]




(sorry...couldn't resist)

James Bond got Pussy Galore....

but that was in the '60s when peace and love ruled the world, and Monza (?) still had that death-trap curve with the guardrail at the top  ;)

Did laverty ever say why he pulled back on that second to last pass in the last lap?  That one where he was looking behind him afterwards.  Seemed like a weird moment to me

Melandri wanted him to lead, but he declined.

yup, very smart on eugene's part.  marco was trying to line him up for what eugene later did to marco.

Yeppers, that's the way I saw it. Laverty didn't fall for it. [thumbsup] More smart race stuff from Eugene! [moto]
I plan to list the Federal Gov't. as a dependent on my next 1040 tax filing!

I have flying honey badgers and I'm not afraid to use them!

The fact that flame throwers exist is proof that someone somewhere said "I'd sure like to set those people over there on fire but I'm just not close enough to get the job done."

CONFIDENCE: the feeling you have right before you understand the situation.

Ya, after seeing those a couple days ago they really couldn't not penalize him with a ride through since that was the only penalty option available to them.

Even though him being outside the chute didn't make a shit bit of difference for safety.
