Scooter ride 5¢

Fired up the old scooter today for the first time this year. Lots of wonderful blue smoke came pouring out of the exhaust after I got her going after a few kicks. Getting the scooter down my ice ramp of a driveway was a bit of trick, but i didn't lay it down so that counts for something. It was a short ride down past Liberty park and down 5th east for a bit, but man, it was sooooo needed. This winter has been a bit on the harsh side, and having temps above 40 is a nice break from the ice queens grip.

Felecia and I are headed down to Vegas next weekend for the rally, and I cannot wait. I only have 4 days to work next week and it is going to be a real bugger to get through.

when I post again after the rally, hopefully I will get some choice pictures.

Cheers for now.

There is no God, Only Chelada.

Yes, I am a consumer whore. If I see some New, shiny, something-er-other I just have to get it/try it. Although, I think after this experience I will be a bit more picky.

God made Beer, or more precise God gave man (and woman) the ability to make beer and it was good. God also told man how to grow tomatoes and how to harvest clams. I have it on good authority that God never EVER told ANYONE to put all three together. So, I can only assume that the devil had his hand in the futuristic beverage named so lovingly "Chelada" or Budweiser and Clamato.

So without further ado, let's get down to sampling this fine beverage.

step one: admiration.
Look at that fine advertising on that can. woo mama.





hmm... gonna drink that whole thing...


Here comes the pour!!!





Oh yeah... let's see if it passes the sniff test... seems ok...





...uhhhhhhhhh......



OH DEAR LORD!! NO!!!! WHY?!?!??!?! <*YACK*> >HEAVE<







HOLY SHIT that is nasty!! Please.. Please. PLEASE DO NOT EVER DRINK THIS!!! I have suffered enough for everyone.

Ok, that is enough for now. I am going to go rinse my mouth out with Killians.

Cheers to GOOD beers.
