Hectic Part 2!

Ok so the weekend was a blast!

Went north to Insanelandia, located in Crook County, to a Shindig, helped some good Folks raise 92500 pounds of pennies (ish) for some other good people.

I was there making panels for the artists to ply their trade upon. I made 14 or so but was to busy to get any pix. Da Mom may have some and I'll get her to email me a few and update this when I get em.

So anyway,, there were cars or something there,,


 
 
That's all I got of the cars, sorry to say not all that interested in what others do to the rides, keeps me free of undo influences. I don't read car mags or watch any of the Hot Rod type TV shows either.
 
 
Not much into bikes either but this one was parked like a foot and a half from my workstation (you can see my stuff in the background of the first pic) and it was hard to ignore.
 


 
 
This pic tells the story, man what a find!



While I was making up a panel I heard the Evil StepDad conversing with someone while they were watching me do my thing and when I looked over he introduced me to this Fella,, (here too). He's a big inspiration to me as he is still working, giving classes and chopping cars during shows.

In a sense giving back information he has so that the following generations can learn both the history and the techniques of the trade. Something I try to do as well.

He was really admiring the panel I had made so at the end of the show I took it over and presented it to him.

 
 
Inflated my ego when he complimented me and the panel so I could think of no better thing to do with it.
 
One of the airbrush guys from the Brushmasters blew some candy on it and really made it pop.
 
 
All in all a great weekend and for a great cause, will be going and doing it again next year!

72 years ago,


Many thanks to the Greatest Generation for what they accomplished. Without the sacrifices they made the world would be a much different place.

Since the day of reflection is over,,,

Fuck muhhamad, fuck the religion of peace, and to hell with anyone that sympathizes with them or refuses to condemn their actions.

9/11/01

Take a moment to think about what you were doing on this day 12 years ago and about how much it has changed our lives.

To the folks that lost someone, words cannot describe the sympathy and grief I hold for you.

For those that passed later due to complications from the cleanup and rescue attempts, you are true heroes.

Now we mustn't forget last years debacle in Benghazi either, good people were lost there too and deserve our attention as well.

I could go on a tirade here about any number of things but today is not the day.

Today we should honor those that fell, celebrate the ones that survived and condemn those that perpetrated it or would see it happen again.

We can go back to the arguing and bitterness tomorrow.

Ok so my 2 cents on Erin,,

It is a brave thing she has done given the intolerance for those that don't fit the mold.

I see no reason for the mold.

You are what you are and trying to change yourself to fit someone else's ideas is a sure fire way to end up hurt or heartbroken.

(Erin if I fuck up and call you Dude, Sorry. I call my Wife and Daughter dude sometimes and they don't hate me. Yet.)
