calico for presidents day weekend

[Uncle Cracker]

as some of you know: i went home early from KOH, broken, with my tail between my legs (again)
my hydro steering orbital failed which was the last thing i expected to fail. it was purchased out of utah, but i spoke to the manufacturer in fresno and they told me to send it directly to them.

long story shortened: i should be ready to go by pres. day weekend, and i didn't see any runs proposed

how about calico?

Roger... I just talked with Mark.

Please give details. What day(s)... and are you running the secret sauce stuff or just the regular Calico trails?

Here's my deal.... I will look over the JK in the morning to see what is broke and if I can fix before the end of the day... yes, I'll stop working my my rebuild if I think I can make it.... BUT, I have promised my girl that I was doing Valentine's Day over the weekend because... well, I am too fucking cheap to buy a dozen roses for 10x what they normally go for. I don't mind the idea of celebrating love/relationships/whatever.... but the marketing bullshit that it really is is not my cup of tea. So... seeing I already made that promise, she is likely the yea/nay vote as I believe the JK is runnable.

but I am no dick..... GJ's friend said I was an asshole.

Well... I tried working it this morning and the girl told me to go wheeling.... she didn't have any interest in it for this weekend. So, unless I decide to "come out" as you whole family is apparently doing, I think I'll have to either back out or try harder with her this evening... otherwise I might as well "come out" as I won't be getting any anyhow and seeing how there will be a coming out lgbt pride festival (you know... the fags are pretty weird and the bis are mixed up, but why do they include the super fucked up.... the trannys? Roger... are you an expert now that you have readied your family for this weekend? Or wait.... are you trying to tell us all something here?? OMG.... you are not a tranny are you?? ).

And holy fawking a. You and Mark in Scrambler? Who the fawk is going to winch that heavy fawker out when he get's stuck like a little bitch. (love you Mark... like a sister).

[Uncle Cracker]

yea,& my winch isn't even mounted yet

this could be interesting
soooooooo, you need to commit,,, mark is gonna need you (us)
matt & becca aren't sure if they are gonna make it
don't know if MFDD is gonna make it. if he does, it won't be
until saturday night- sunday morning
so far, no one else, that i know of, is capable of making scrambler
so just tell your "valentine" that you must go, and she's welcome to
tag along


come on sunshine,,,,,,, we gotta wheel at least once before you
do the "tear down"

[Uncle Cracker]

NOW~~~~~i will not be in Calico until saturday afternoon~~~~~~~~NOW

FUCKING parts did not get delivered again
TG manager swore it was getting air overnighted and would be at my shop
before noon on saturday

[Loki XJ]

So what's the verdict? Did you ever make it to calico? Lol for all that trouble I could have driven my car to Fresno friday and got the part before the weekend

[abendx]

WTF homos..... what happened here?

[Uncle Cracker]

well fuck

we gave up on my parts near 1:00pm saturday
packed all my camping gear into a recently acquired
99 taco 4wd (bone stock) & headed to calico
met up mark and his wild bunch for a little wheelin, drinkin, and campin
woke up sunday morning hung over,& headed over to my aunt & uncles
campsite. we ran odessa (all day). we were gonna book on sunday afternoon
cuz i was pissy about my fudking parts still, but after relaxing with my family
awhile, we decided to hang out one more night.
monday morning woke up feeling like shit>> hauled ass home

[Uncle Cracker]

P.S.>>>>> wheeling a stock rig is way more exciting then wheeling a built rig

you have to think & plan your lines much more

[abendx]

Sorry about your parts....

How did Mark's beast do?
