Lets just say that I am one of the ones that truly need the "tall" when I buy shirts.

As for speed.....I go faster turning around in my garage, than most of you wrong clourd riders have gone on the open road.

Maybe if your all good, I'll get a big poster made up of me going fast. Then I'll have all the colour removed, and send them out with a set of crayons...that way you can colour the picture and the rider so it will look like it's really you....unless you little retards can't stay inside the lines....better let you kids do it, or a blind person.

Good god....I think I might be on to something here. I'll call the company "Faux Fast" or maybe " Poser Posters".......


Hmmmm, I let ya know.

Do you remember "Weebles"? You know, the egg-shaped toy with a face? Just picture one with boobs wearing a wifebeater and a toque. Now put it on a bird the colour of a babboon's ass and voila! There's Lois.

Oh, so you own an SR71, the only TRUE BLACKBIRD. Those painted in the same colours are only Blechbirds.

You should not tell lies, Strek.

You will write this on the blackboard 1000 times.

And you will still not be forgiven.

No we are too busy getting the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow. We are the only ones that are fast enough to get to the end of the rainbow to get the gold. Thats why you rainbirds can never find the gold.

My Red Bird was doing 135mph before I realized how fast I was going today.
Who else got to ride their Bird today?
