Of course, if you like buying food from a tent, then it's the place to be. LOL<br />They used to have raft races and antique bathtub races until they decided tat the water quality in the river was not all it should have been.

I thought that code on the hat would drive me crazy for a bit, but I think I figured it out and Conch won't be pleased, LOL.<br />The ride to Key West would be epic and a lot of fun, but I have 2 concerns. <br />1) Max is not capable of triple digits in speed, so don't wish to hold you up and <br />2) That uniform is heavy wool and would not be great to ride in unless the weather was really cool. I wore that company's uniforms in high school and college when I was a member of various marching bands.<br /><br />And I still don't like kraut, even the Korean kind.<br /><br />Jimcpa3485https://www.blogger.com/profile/00031439889267356735noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2259595163018451877.post-332385495049535182010-05-27T12:13:21.982-05:002010-05-27T12:13:21.982-05:00I love reubens.

The love of sauerkraut, and a healt...Dear CPA3485:<br /><br />The love of sauerkraut, and a healthy respect for precision German motorcycles (complete with a tach), is a blessing bestowed by a beneficient Irish God. I suggest you fall to your knees and beg for his mercy.<br /><br />Even the Koreans have their own garlicy version of sauerkraut, known as kim chee. It is a poor substitute. Here, on the edge of Lancaster County, Pa, the Amish fill crocks with shredded cabbage and other mystical things, bury them, and dig them up when the contents have been converted to the ultimate culinary experience. <br /><br />While Bob Skoot is quick to point out the shortcomings of the Teutonic marque, he wastes no time trotting around behind some sweet thing, mooning over her "vastly superior German ride." <br /><br />Jimbo, God does not subtract the time from a man's life during which he wears a stupid hat. Go back and get the fur-trimmed tri-corner. Then get the letters "KMA CS" embroidered on it. This is a secret code. I will explain it to you later. <br /><br />Please buy me the lobster suit. Cost is no object, as I have no money. I want to ride around Key West in that lobster suit on my K75, wearing a sign that says, "Nothing tastes like fresh lobster... Eat me." When walking down Duval Street with CS, I will wear a tee-shirt over the lobster suit that reads, "I'm with Mr. Tachless."<br /><br />Now, I think you should come to Key West with me. It will be a once-in-a-lifetime epic ride for you, but I am willing to go 50 miles oit of my way and meet you in West Virginia. We will ride down to Key West together, but only if you will wear a "Windwagon Willie" outfit, and sing songs from the Sargent Pepper's Lonely Hearts' Club Band album. I will wear the lobster suit. We will tell everyone that you are "Baravelli" the Italian spy, and that I am Ciccolini — both cousins of Michael Beatti. <br /><br />Just say "Yes."<br /><br />Fondest regards,<br />Jack • reep • ToadJack Riepehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07531160098262862027noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2259595163018451877.post-72161863941432318472010-05-26T11:02:25.576-05:002010-05-26T11:02:25.576-05:00cpa3485:

I don't own a K75 and I don't like REUBENS either, mainly because of the saurkraut <em>(sp: sourkraut ?)</em> not that anyone has mentioned it but this goes for corned beef sandwiches too <em>(too much saurkraut)</em>. James, we are so alike. I used to have a BMW 2002 and a few VW's: Beetle, Rabbit Cabriolet and a Westfalia. and also a Canadian Subaru, after all, what else would they sell in Canada. And all had a tach, except for the beetle and Westfalia.<br /><br />ps: You don't look like a dork.

And, BTW, she is of German heritage and loves "reubens" (not ruben as you so pitifully spelled it). She had 3 of them during the festival. <br /><br />Personally, I can't stand "reubens" because of the kraut, not because it's German, but because it is grotesque to me. However that speaks poorly for my opinion of German things such as BMW's and VW's although I have owned the 4 wheeled versions of each in the past. They were fun and a pain in the ass at the same time. But for a displaced Italian like yourself, how would you know better how to spell something German? And who really cares.<br /><br />But you are spot on about 2 things, <br />1) I am definately a dork &<br />2) the chocolate bacon didn't look any more appetizing than in the picture. <br /><br />I agree, reubens are pathetic, but each person has to live by their own calling. We may both be tachometer challenged, but we love what we have. To heck with supposed German Superiority. That ought to get a rise out of someone we know.<br /><br />Jimcpa3485https://www.blogger.com/profile/00031439889267356735noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2259595163018451877.post-28910160753675839972010-05-25T14:23:18.066-05:002010-05-25T14:23:18.066-05:00The chocolate bacon looks like something my dog ex...The chocolate bacon looks like something my dog extruded this morning so I guess it has to be a speciality from Canada. By the way my pink crocs are taking off in a way that tricorns never will as long as you are modelling them.
