Post by: Captain Bilko on January 30, 2011, 09:05:45 pm

Ma, ma! Pappy's back with his new bike!!
Wow Pa! That there is some strange lookin' contraption! Hot damn it aint got any fins!?
That's right Becky-Lou. It's a water-cooled critter.
An, an, an it aint got any shockers Daddy!
Uh huh. It wunna them fan-dangled single shocked beasts Danny-Lee.
Thank the good lord they did'n mess with the brakes Pappy.
Ya right there Mary-Lou....
Daddy?
Yes Jenny-Rae?
Billy-Lee's Daddy told him that any one who don't right a Maygo 490 or a five-hunert cubic centmetre water-cooled mashine is nothin' but a Commie-pinko- un-oztralian faggot?
That's allrght Fanny-May. The way I hear it he bin havin' trouble gettin' things removed from his ass lately (or so I read)....
