Alpo Posted February 18 Posted February 18 Ah, remember the good old days. When stuff like this was just considered an easy opening knife instead of a weapon of mass destruction. Â 7 1 1 Quote
Alpo Posted February 18 Posted February 18 I was driving down the highway one day and I saw, coming towards me, a game warden with his bubble gum machine on. Â WTH? I knew they could pull people over and write tickets - I mean, they are cops. But I've never seen it done. And he didn't seem to be in a raging hurry to go somewhere. Â As he gets closer I see that, although the color of the car is the exact shade of green as Florida game and fish, it wasn't. The motorcyclist riding behind him was wearing a blue helmet. And it was late enough in the day that the sun would be coming through the gaps in the planted pine trees on the west side of the road. So the biker would be in the sun, then in the shade, then in the sun, then in the shade. And that blue helmet would flash blue and then not, and then flash and then not. Â Very cool optical illusion. 3 3 Quote

Alpo Posted February 20 Posted February 20 You might not be able to challenge someone to a duel and the 21st century, but I challenge a guy in 1985. Complete with slapping him in the face with my glove. Â Fortunately for me he realized how drunk I was and declined to accept. Â That was about the last time I got drunk. Â This was 4 miles from my house, and I have absolutely no idea how I got home. I remember getting in my truck at David's house, and I remember getting out of my truck at my house. But nothing in between. Â I went to my friends next door, and slept on their couch. And the next day they told me that I had told them about challenging that guy to a duel at least seven times. Â I was just a tad bit inebriated. 1 1 Quote
