The Longest Thread Ever!

[ring]

Time for me to bait your hook!

ummm...what is this shnook you speak of, I'm not knowing that one.

[jewels]

Sorry, apparently it's snook,

I tasted it once, but it can't be caught for commercial use.



Although this article says they start at 5 lbs, it's not uncommon for the real pros (some guys I used to work with) to catch them at around 40 lbs.

Common Snook, Fish Identification

I love the way the sun is illuminating those fins.

[jewels]

Ya know, and I didn't even notice the sea grape behind him. One of my favorite plants that's indigenous to the area.
I planted a couple in my front yard and I can't wait to try the actual fruit it bears.

I ate one in Belize once. It was caught in the MoHo River in southern Belize by a local fisherma. The resport owner bought it from the fisherman who stopped by the resort's dock. That one fish fed 10 adults. It was fantastic.

[Ourcrazymodern?]

Let's talk about koi,
the decorative, uneaten,
and most treasured fish.

[ring]

The golden fins shine,
reminiscent of dragons.
water and air floats.

[Ourcrazymodern?]

Maybe better yet,
let's talk about butterflies,
I will brake for them.

[ring]

Butterfly kisses,
send my heart a fluttering,
may I give you one?

[Ourcrazymodern?]

I will do your will, could it possibly be done?
You're not harsh, mistress!

[ring]

I facilitate.
I encourage your truth speak.
Bells and whistles sing.

[Ourcrazymodern?]

Since I love you, ring,
I should now redirect us,
to our advantage.

[ring]

I follow your lead.
your guidance keeps me on task.
Time for a road trip?

[Ourcrazymodern?]

You are wonderful,
and very precious to me,
and most amazing.

[MexicanOnABike]

it feels nice having blocked OCM. i no longer see the stupid messages. now don't make me block anyone else in this thread!

[ring]

When wearing blinders..
You cannot see the touch.

That sounds like a lonely place.

I am sorry you are so blocked,
dude.

PS..you may as well block me also then,
You have insulted the most important person in my life.

[Ourcrazymodern?]

Silly mexican!
I can, even so, love you,
though you can't read it.

Still, let me translate:
This is where nonsense belongs,
and I do my part!

Out of sight..or out of..nevermind.....

[Ourcrazymodern?]

Nevermind,
The land unthinking,
Must be dull.

Hopefully we will exert extra patience and effort to overcome this dark cloud now hovering above The Longest Thread, otherwise the fun will be drained and it will die. Why should we allow one lousy expression to do that? It's not like it's MOAB's personal thread...if it was I'd be inclined to just let it end.

[Ourcrazymodern?]

Mobile derailment
has led to much confusion,
at least for this one.

[BadNick]

[jewels]

Blockhead?

[Jetée]

Let's take it back to the music.

[BadNick]

Longest time no see, Jetée. Nice vibes.

[Jetée]

I notice that there is a certain bit of tension in in the thread...

also, it seems I have been overtaken in number of posts.

Also, I want to experience and cajole creativity.

[MexicanOnABike]

lets just say: this used to be about total randomness and sometimes very interesting conversations but since a few months ago, it's become almost alllll poetry that is unreadable. it's not funny, not good just bleh... I tried bringing some fun to this place and honestly, sometimes people do! but with OCM not willing to change, i had to block his posts to once again enjoy this thread. because NO, it's not MY thread but i've contributed sooo much that I don't want to see it fail.
If i see ocm's posts as boring, then others who are lurking will probably skip this thread. Do you see my point?!

anyways, have a good weekend everyone.

If given reasons,
I might change my silly ways;
With none, I will not

Soap bubbles
float & look pretty,
then they pop.

My goal is to post;
to help this thread to it's goal,
even while quirky.

I haven't see it yet, either. Last night my older boy, 13yo, announced that he's buying the DVD asap. My boys have already seen it 7 times between the two of them and I wouldn't be surprised if they see it again with other friends who may not have seen it yet. I heard my younger one, just turned 12yo, ask his friend "what's the best movie you ever saw?" and first he said "The Godfather" but then he said "...well maybe now it's The Dark Knight". I'll see it soon for sure.

One of the longest I've been on in quite a while, though not as long or hilly as Watkins Glen...Tuesday I'll be driving on this track in Millville NJ:



Thunderbolt Raceway
The Southern Road Circuit at New Jersey Motorsports Park will be our signature Thunderbolt Raceway featuring over 2.25 miles of asphalt, 14 challenging turns, a one half mile straightway and approximately 40 acres of full service paddock space. Amenities on this circuit will include concession buildings, event garages, twenty (20) VIP Suites, banquet rooms, a covered false grid, and a three (3) story timing tower with media center and VIP facilities.

Just for good measure and to make this even longest..er, here's a map of Watkins Glen, my favorite so far:

Why so serious, guys.
Yes, long time no posts.
Hey I hear some french in that groovy song.

I am teaching myself French. I'd like to learn some more vocabulary, but practice with peers here might work wonders.

Here's some go-kart pics I took today at that track...they were ripping around pretty fast and the smell of nitro fuel brought back memories for me...





This is the kind the rent if you want to drive and don't have your own:




This was another cool racecar parked near the kart track:




My two boys and I took a day trip to Ocean City NJ today and on the way we stopped at New Jersey Motorsports Park. A Porsche club was running on the Lightning track and another mixed car group on Thunderbolt...place looks very nice, I'm looking forward to Tuesday.

I never saw so many GT3 Porsches in one place:








I'd like to pick up one of these as a track car...it's a D-sport Racer...from the note on the wing I'm thinking it must be the Socialist Sports Racers Club:

[MexicanOnABike]

badnick: awesome posts and pictures.

Jet: if you want to learn french more, PM me or start a blog entry and we can have a french conversation. really...
