My name is Kyle Im 16 and live in corona,CA. Ive been browsing a little while and registered for the ability to interject my opinions and ask stupid qeustions. I drive a 1950 Ford Tudor sedan, flathead V8, 3 spd w/ overdrive; real mild custom and am almost finished with my 1968 triumph chopper. I didnt see anything about it being necessary to post an intro; but i thought id do it as not to step on any toes (even if it is just the internet, not my style) Thanks, ill post pics if any one cares.
Ah he's doin' better than some of the johnny come latelies. Your lookin' alright to me kid. A pic or two wouldn't hurt a thing. If you haven't already found it you might check out the jockey journal. Probably lotsa room for a chopped trumpet over there. Welcome aboard. The PknBner
Alright, i cant figure out how to shrink the pics of my car to an acceptable size for the attachment thing. If you really want to see it, ill email for now until i can discover the secret to reducing images. My bike worked though, i think. Sorry about posting the intro in the wrong area, but out of curiousity; where is it supposed to go?
So you can find it when one of the moderators moves it http://www.jalopyjournal.com/forum/forumdisplay.php?f=18
Why does it anger people? Do you want to anger people? Why? Why not? I don't mind 666. KYLE really pisses me off, though - why don't you change it to Judy666? Or maybe StevieWonder666 since you didn't see where to post the intro...are you really 16, or did you lie about your age to enlist? Jeez, I have a headache........... Mutt
Humm, I never thought of that. Why would you want to anger people? I don't think they teach that at Dale Garnegie. Doc.
Why not 'Kyle 6-16'-get it! Oh, I waste all my best material... Let me start of by saying I hate you for having that bike and possibly your car (haven't seen pictures yet) at your age-all I got for my 16th b-day was Hyundai Excel which I promptly killed in a 'neutral dropping' accident. If they'd just given me an Impala like my brother,no Hyundais would have been hurt...okay I can't really say that and on that note, welcome!
Dear Mr. Vernon: We accept the fact that we had to sacrifice a whole Saturday in detention for whatever it was we did wrong. But, we think you're crazy to make us write an essay telling you who we think we are. You see us as you want to see us: in the simplest terms, in the most convenient definitions. But, what we found out is that each one of us is: a brain . . and an athlete.. and a basket case . . a princess . . and a criminal. Does that answer your question? Sincerely yours, The Breakfast Club
welcome to the board. i was hoping that you weren't another kyle i know. hope you enjoy this site. i'm in the next town over, Yorba Linda. that bike is bad***.
Thanks for all the replies and positive feedback on the sickle. sorry again for not posting in the right place (i finally figured it out-brilliant)
So YOU ARE the guy that finally ended up with my old Hyundai.....(what a pile of ****!) Welcome Kyle, post pics of the car.
Hey Kyle, Welcome along. Now...I posted this a few weeks ago, but you obviously didn't see it. So....read it, then consider changing your name! "A newly discovered fragment of the 'book of revelation' challenges the conventional belief that the Antichrist's mark is 666, indicating instead that it is 616. Expert cl***icists used multi-spectral imaging to get a better view of the text, which is written in archaic Greek and dates to the late third century. "It is clearly an important new m****cript, giving us a relatively very early copy of the text of Revelation," said Christopher Tuckett, a theology professor at Oxford University's Pembroke College. "It is probably not the earliest m****cript of Revelation that we have ... but this is the first time [the 616 reading] has been found in such an early text." Fear of 666 is so extensive it actually has a name hexakosioihexekontahexaphobia and has inspired everything from televangelist speeches to Hollywood films. The numbers have long been appropriated into the heavy-metal lexicon and symbology. Black Sabbath, Rob Zombie, Danzig and Sepultura have featured depictions of "666" on their album covers, Slipknot have decorated their stage set with 666 signs, and hordes of other bands have incorporated 666 symbols into T-shirts, stickers and other merchandise. Most famously, 666 provided the ***le of Iron Maiden's groundbreaking 1982 album, Number of the Beast. The ***le track begins with the Revelation p***age "Let him who hath understanding reckon the number of the beast, for it is a human number. Its number is 666." The recent 616 discovery, which was found in a collection of do***ents recovered in Egypt, isn't exactly a whole new revelation. While it dates back the furthest, other ancient m****cripts of the Book of Revelation have the number as 616 instead of 666, provoking some debate in the past as to which were the original digits. Both Greek and Hebrew letters have numeric values that can be added up to arrive at a total. One common explanation of 666 is that it comes from the numerical value of "Nero" transliterated into Hebrew letters. A small change in the transliteration can result in 616. Many scholars believe that 666 won out because it is derived from a more complex formula and also because it's simply more catchy. "Six hundred sixty-six looks like a more memorable number than 616," said David Parker, a New Testament professor at the University of Birmingham in England. "Six hundred sixty-six steadily took over, and the alternative was forgotten until modern scholars in the past 200 years started to look at more m****cripts and to find ones that had been lost." Alan Mitchell, a theology professor at Georgetown University, said there's no reason the discovery should detract from the popularity of 666. "In my opinion, it doesn't change anything," he said. "The most reliable m****cripts have the number as 666. There's no reason to change the text of the New Testament, and there's no reason to change the tattoos." But even if it's not earth-shattering news for metalheads, one group is probably not too thrilled with the discovery the folks in southwestern Michigan whose area code is 616.
