OK then Silverbird.
To quote a famous American Field Sargent, " Only two things come out of Texas...Steers and Queers, And you dont look much like a steer to me.  . Do you carry a bucket around with you on the Bird, Silverbird ?
Red is Bestest , Biggest, and Fastest. So there.
Mmmmmm ... Dodge "RAM", very apt.   |

LOL. Good one Silverbird, but the only ass you'll be woopin' will be your own when you Dodge breaks down on the side of the road.
By the way, I saw a Silver Bird on the road the other day.... In my MIRRORS. |

As for the whole beer thing......sorry my slow coloured little friend, beer will always be more important than economics.....I mean dude really...
And...
I would rather be ruled by a wild pack of pms'd out dikes (not that there is anything wrong with being in a pack or with being a pms'd out dike) , than to ever be ruled by the English. (not that there is anything wrong with being English....god save the queen and ...here here and hip hip etc).
However, our present government is based/structured on the english system, as is their overly liberal way of thinking. England has pretty well given their country's future over to the Muslims, and Canada is well on it's way as well. ( not that being taken over by the Muslims is in any way, a bad thing)
Besides talking funny, the English let their drunk women sleep in the streets. (ya, I know... not that letting your women sleep in the streets is a bad thing....they are your women, you may do as you wish with them)
But I must say, what really gets me rolling on the floor is how some Americans pronounce certain words.
ie;
They say > din't ............we say> didn't
ruff........................................ roof
po-lease.................................. police
impoe-tint................................. important
warsh..................................... wash
black...................................... slow
blue........................................ painful
silver....................................... laughable
and the list goes on.
I hang out in the US a fair amount, I love traveling down there. Folks are friendly, prices are good, highways are in good condition, and the laws are a little more lax.
However, it just cracks me up, when some good old boy from Norman, Oklahoma, tells me that I sure have a twang to my voice when I speak, or someone with a thick Texas drawl, tells me I have an accent. I used to argue that it was in fact they, who had the accent, but now I just simply say, well, if I have an accent, then why do all of your TV news announcers speak like me? LOL
But really, lets get to the heart of the matter. Not only is Red the fastest colour, It will make you a better person.....and improve your spoken/broken english. so just all kneel, including the queen, reds number one, you get what i mean.....

Damn it Lois, you can lay it on thick brother. 
But, the point has been made, red is superior in every way. 
So, I say to the colors we do not speak owners, get on your knees suckers. |

Beer??? I thought we were going to World War 3..???.?.?  Well since you said beer  you are my friend again. You are still slowest color though
I'm up for some Corona's with lime, Dos equis (This means 2 X's in Spanish for you that are Spanish stupid) and some Shiner  . Shiner is home grown down the street from me locally brewed.
I would rather have you yankee boys come on down to this beautiful Texas weather we are having. I always laugh about how you guys complain about the heat and watch you sweat profusely while doing it. You will be drinking a lot of beer too. This will also allow me to show you the power of SILVER. You will be in awe, on your knees, and calling me KING

O L Gibb wasn't long lost. He was way out in front on his Black Blackbird. Maurice was long lost. He was way in the back. His Red Blackbird couldn't keep up with Andy's Silver Blackbird. And Andy had Barry on the back. I'll bet that if Andy didn't have Barry on the back of the Silver Blackbird then Andy may have given O L Gibb on the Black Blackbird a good race. Maurice was long lost. So was his Red Blackbird. I miss the Bee Gees. Saturday Night Fever is a classic,

My best time so far is a 10.83@129mph, but that was my first time ever running the bird and the first time on a track. As for now I only have slip-ons on the bike but I do have a pcIII for it just havent had time to get it on and tuned up.

Not bad... not bad at all. I run in the 10.6 range with a PC2/with map and slip ons. The hardest thing to do on the Bird is launching the beast.
Keep practicing my brother!
Now back to the debate............................
SILVER is the fastest color
