Ok, so I didn't get all that stuff done yesterday what I was gonna. After I got to look'n at things, I decided that dishes was a non issue. I still have 4 clean forks left in the drawer, so 4 more days on the dishes will wait. About tak'n a ride on the "billy bike", that was put on hold too. Ya see, I had to walk up to the dumpster an' back, so that was enough exercise for one day. Floor has been sweeped of all debris....good job Billy Bob, you had a productive day.
Today is old "pesky neighbor" Wayne's birthday. Today he turns officially an old man, 70 years old. Happy birthday Wayne.
I have a buyer for "da porch". My last treasured possession in Deming. I'm think'n .50 cents on a dollar is a good sale. I've got my moneys worth out of it just by sit'n out there sip'n up a cup an' do'n a little think'n. It's gonna remain at the same location where I built it 7 years ago. The feller is gonna move into my spot when I pull out somewhere's around the first of Oct. Give a week or two.
Research on a motor for the "billy bike" has been fruitless. Cain't find exactly what I'm look'n for. Ya see, what I want is something that when I turn the handle to "go", it gonna go like a hunnert mile a hour. Most of what I've found only "assist" hard muscle aching peddling. I'm think'n more on the idea of "no" peddling. Git the picture? Most e-bike motors are built and shipped from China. Hmmmmmm, where I gonna get spare parts if'n it break down???
Did a half pizza on the grill last night. Hot damn that were one good pizza. If I hadn't throwed my bag of mesquite chips in the dumpster, I would have had smoked grilled pizza. Ya see, what ya do is, ya go to Walmart an' buy ya up one then froze DeGerno....or what ever, supreeem jobber do's. Cut it in half. Defrost the half ya gonna grill. Turn the grill to bout 350 degs....it gonna end up 400 before ya know it. Place the pizza, with the little piece of cardboard under it, on the top rack, unless ya wanna catch it on fire on the bottom rack. When ya see the cheese melt'n down and the crust get'n a little brown on the edges, yank that cardboad slap out from under it. Onest the crust gets to the flavor ya like it....eat 'em up.
Ok, Barney gonna be here in a few for a hamburger fron one of the finer hamburger places here in Deming. See ya on the.....I were gonna say other side, but that don't sound too promising. How bout just "laters".
Holy crap, I forgot to push the publish button this morn'n.
ReplyDeleteHappy birthday, Wayne. I will be 70 on my next birthday. As far as that bike goes, throw it away and get a Harley, if'n you want to go a hundred mile an hour.
ReplyDeleteDizzy, do you doubt the abilities of the old Billy Bily when he say the "billy bike" will go a hunnert mile a hour? For shame on you.
DeleteDo ya remember that Breedlove feller....or what ever his name was? Broke the world speed record at the Bonnyville Salt Flats? 'Member him? Me an that guy has got like minds.
Actually Dizzy, I would be skeered to death to go a hundred miles an hour on a bicycle. But that ain't what I said. There's a big difference between a hundred and a "hunnert mile a hour".
DeleteBilly Bob,
DeleteYou weren't talking about world speed record at Bonnyville. You were talking about going a hunnert mile an hour on a bicycle. It has been done behind a pace car but Sam Whittingham was the first unpaced cyclist ever to break the deci-mach mark (1/10 the speed of sound, World Human Powered Speed Challenge, Battle Mountain, NV): 132.50 km/h (82.33 mph) on 2008-09-18. To date, still the only person to have accomplished this milestone.
Now that I'm back at home for a while, I'm fixin to buy the stuff I need to make another Billy Bob Cherry Chocolate Cake! No sweets at all in my diet for the past 10 days, and I think I need a little sugar to keep me going.
ReplyDeleteI'm not good at these kinds of problems, but maybe since you can't find a motor for the Billy Bike, clip some playing cards to the spokes and it will sound like you're going a hunnert miles an hour, and you might even feel like you're going faster!
So glad ya made it back home all in one piece. Hope you had a great time.
DeleteI been think'n bout mak'n one them cakes for myself....and old "pesky neighbor" Wayne.
Ya brung bacvk soem old memories bout the play'n cards in the spokes. Boy howdy, we was some "hot rod'n" boys back in the 50's with them ace of spades motors hook up to the wheels. Go through a deck of cards in a week.
Tell Blue Eyes I wish him a very happy birthday or is it belated at this hour? Anyways tell him MsBelinda sends him a cyber hug.
ReplyDeleteBTW what did you end up buying him?
hehehehe...knew you were not going to get around to washing them dishes :D
ReplyDeleteThere is a bunch of us that are right behind "pesky neighbor" Wayne! Guess that's a good place to be 'cause that's where most of my friends are!
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday, Wayne!
