22nd and leaving the 23rd. I'll let you know once I know what's happening the 22nd. Hopefully we can finally connect this time.

I totally forgot about the Barber museum. How far from the airport is it, anyone know? That's a GREAT freakin' idea.

ganked could be an action taken against you. He would be the gankee and the thuglife wanna be's would be the gankers, getting ganked and is part of the realm of ganked and being ganked in general.

[Dragonpaco]

round these parts inanimate objects can be ganked yet people get snatched... damn cultural divide

Nah if you get "ganked" that means that something has been stolen from you. As in;
" Dayum Dawg I don got ganked!!!"
"Wat fo?"
"My motherfucking kicks I jus' gripp'd"
"Aw hell-to-the-nah,fo real?"
"Werd!"
"Fuck dat ish,dawg! Git yo gatt 'n' get up wif me in 20. Weez' gon splash sum domes if we find dos niggas!!!"
"A'ight!"

You mean "kacked" or "wacked"...or even "jacked" although "jacked" can be used in place of "ganked" BUT not vise verse'. In my experience "jacked" literally translated means "fucked over" which can cover a wide spectrum of possibilities. While "kacked" or "wacked" specifically pertains to the taking of one's life. "Ganked" has almost always used to describe a larcenous occurrence.

i think i have heard it used that way but usually when i hear ganked it's in the context
"yo dawg, i just ganked this jawn from that twitchy eyed mothafucka down the way."

I'm still laughing that Tigger said "stanky leg." What a terrible song.

Barber Museum

http://barbermuseum.org/slide/images/3%20floors.jpg

Damn..........all that space just for a motorcycle museum? I guess land is cheap in AL, you'd never find anything like that out here.

[Papa_Complex]

Yup, definitely the Barber Museum.

I liked Vulcan Park too. There's also a massive bike night that's run by a local radio station in a bowling alley parking lot, but I don't know if it's on this early in t he season.

Just got done with Barber.

Freakin' awesome! Pics will be uploaded as soon as I can get them onto photobucket or some other host. I could not believe the sheer scale of the place until I went there. I even got to watch the race driving school in action.

For now:

... and they apparently knew I was coming because this was sitting out front on display to greet me (made me smile to see such a familliar form waiting for me):

[Particle Man]

Ok, I wasn't going to attach anymore but I figured I'd post one up for Josh/Kaneman/Psychomedic (even though he did pass within 5 miles of my house and didn't stop redflip)

A salute to the 'Rex (may yours rest in peace):

[Papa_Complex]

God, but I love that place.

[Homeslice]

Who owns it?

[Homeslice]

You talking about the song where he gets stopped by a lady cop, got me thinking about dating a cop"...........God I hate that song.... I just hate his voice or something.

[Papa_Complex]

Who owns it?

Mr. George Barber; the guy who owns the track.

That's the song. I like some of Lil Wayne's stuff. But he's a rapper....not an R&B artist which it sounds like he's trying to be in that song. The "wee-o-wee" shit grates on my nerves in the song. Grr... :skep:

If it wasn't for the trees, you could see where I went for my nice slide.

[Looni2ns]

Did you get a chance to go down to the bottom where the cars are and the restoration shop? You can watch them work on the bikes they are restoring.

I love that track!!!! It is sooooo much fun to ride. :-)

unfortunately, no. The bottom floor was closed that day :(

[marko138]

Awesome pics. The swingarm on the MV is gorgeous.

I think that they close it in the off season. It's been closed the couple of times that I've been there over the winter, but open in late spring and summer.

Dude, I've got a picture of that bike inside the Barber museum from almost the exact same angle....

Oh yea, and for the record I called you my first night in upstate NY. I'm pretty sure you said something lame about your wife not letting you leave the house or something....

BURN!!!
