    Once again I am exhausted after hanging out with Evel for a week........ These are truly crazy times, and he is do***enting it all. It's pretty amazing actually......

    First off, the Pile Up was AWSOME! Everyone involved did an outstanding job. I'm still not over it. This show has become a different demon, then when it was at Drews shop. It is (as Burger would say) legit now. A BIG deal.

    "Our little baby all grows up" HaHa

    Although the first two shows will always have a special place in my memmory, mostly because of some of the friendships that evolved from them, Hellfish, Magnet, Django and the others have done a great job of keeping this event homegrown. It's still Punk Rock. Well, maybe not quite as Punk as it used to be, but definately still "New Wave." HaHaHaha

    It was Awsome, thanks fellas.

    The trip down was great, Evel drove the custom Shoebox, Jaker drove his roadster, my dad had the Merc, Max Wedge brought the H-Bomb, And ***us drove his 32 five window all the way from Minneapolis!

    It was really cool to spend some time with ***us. He is a smart mother****er and totally "get's it". Basically, he has the p***ion, and it runs deep. I always like making new freinds.

    Jaker's roadster's rearend made noise on the way down, and as it turned out he only need to use the proper Lube.

    HaHa Jaker's rear end needed lube....... The Cheaters can teach him about lube........ HaHaha

    It was graet to see all the Sycamore SUKA"S, Plowboy, The detroit dudes, The Indy Crew and everyone else. There was a pile of people I wanted to talk to, but never got the chance. It was a great time.

    ***us Jaker and Jen learned to never take me to a grocery store again. "The Pizza/Cupcake Incedent" was life changing. Sometimes I cause the most trouble, when I don't even mean to. It was all an accident.
    HaHaHaHaHa

    The Rock'nRoll at fools was fun. I like to scare greasers. Oops.

    The late night madness came to a hault when Max Wedge ran over Nashman and pinned him between the H-bomb and ***us's coupe. That was really scary, hope he is OK. Sometimes thing get Out of hand...... It's all in good fun until someone get's hurt. HaHa

    The drive home was just as good. The highlight was kicking Evels *** on the Go Carts. Hollywood is full of LOSERS! HaHa

    We got home late Sunday night, and left early Monday to got up north to do some top secret MFS film shoots.

    Mark Moriarity is God, that's all I have to say about that.

    Then we went to Canada and raced the Hondas at Tucks. It was funny as Hell, as usual.....

    We got back to America just in time to get Evel an Evette to the Airport. I diddn't even run out of Gas this time.





    When I finnally got back to the shop my dad showed me this letter that came in the mail. It is from a 10 year old kid that goes to school about 15 miles from the shop.

    I remember when he and his dad stopped by. I was in a ****py mood and throwing tools around. I looked up and there was this little kid standing there. I just looked at him and talked for a couple minutes, No big deal.

    When I opened this letter I was blown away. It means so much to me I can't even describe it. I get so rapped up in what I am doing all the time, I rarely realise that people might be watching.

    This letter is better than any trophy or recognition that I could get. I'm going to frame it.

    Somehow, it means so much to me. I can't stop looking at it.

    Bob I always enjoy seing you, even if it is with our clothes on! It always makes me feel one step closer to rock-stardumb.

    I will try to get down to c-town tomorrow night to see the show. I can't go If I have to work the next day though. I am too old for that **** now.

    That's cool that you have perhaps inspired some kid to take the "road less traveled" and build cool stuff instead of camaros, mustangs, and Hondas. I wish that could happen around here. I am working a couple of my locals though.

    ***us was threatening to show the pics of me in the bar with rubbing the BIG UNIT Jaker and CAS. I say bring it on!

    I look forward to the new MFS. Evel is too a ruler. I want to see all of Moriarty's stuff. Yngrodder will be a hero as well.

    How was the interview with the Elvis impersonator?

    The new MFS is gonna rock!

    It was cool to see the H-Bomb move under it's own power, even though it wouldn't run long and tried to kill Nashman. That car is posessed........

  8. There is hope for the future, great letter.
     
  9. Bob... You gotta get that kid on the HAMB. Ten years old and already cuttin' **** up.
    I wanna see pix of his ol' Skool Chopper.
    Tell him we all say HI and we're all glad the mean man didn't hit him with a ratchet. [​IMG]

    Bob- that letter is completey ****ing kick ***.

    here's a tech tip for anyone reading- if your dad and like 3 other hambers tell you that you need to put a posi additive in your rear-end, you should really listen. I'm an idiot.

    ***us, it was rad meeting you- he had my car jacked up before I had even come back from out of the gas station. Awesome

    Plowboy- i've got a great picture of being a ****head- I'll post tomorrow. [​IMG]

    it awesome driving home and getting to see how a real hollywood motion picture is made- i can hardly wait for MFS 2

    I only wish I took pictures of the grocery store incident- keep in mind this is the same guy climbing all over bar tables saturday night.

    So did you write the kid back? That's definitely something to frame...

    You should send him some pictures too, he'd probably get a huge kick out of that... [​IMG]

    Bob, that letter really hit home.. I have a 7 year old, and took him to the pileup last year. He never stopped talking about it, and I truly believe that it kind of hooked him for life ( I'm helping too )..

    I really enjoy seeing and hearing about this kind of stuff...

    and he is right,,, your cars are the best cars!!! [​IMG]

    It really was a great time. Sometimes I feel lucky.

    Jakers T in the Fall light.

    I wanted to take all sorts of pics at the Pile up, but I thought I lost My camera. It ended up being in my roadster.

    We need a HAMB Letter writing drive to each and every kid in that cl***. I don't know if that would work or even be wanted but we need to show what the written word can do...

    Just look at us!

    That kid can use me for show and tell. Haha

    Bob, That letter is a framer for sure! That's got to motivate you. Like you need MORE motivation! [​IMG]

    Great to finally meet some of you guys and put a face to some names at the show. Next year the roadster will be there for sure. I wanted to at least get it in the "in progress" section, but things came up. I'm sure you all know how it goes!

    The show rocked, the bands kicked ***, and the girl that was deep ********* the popscile during the waxon7 performance was freaking me out! [​IMG] literally!

    Anyways, The leg is healing well. I didn't know PBR could mask so much pain? (Probably because it was free [​IMG]) I'll have to start drinking it more often, or more of it. [​IMG] I did learn that short jumper cables and thin sheet metal are good things! I think before I was even pulled from the trunk of ***us's car, you guys had the dent in the back of the H-bomb kicked out. Funny **** though, but not to funny at the time! It was a little hard explaning to the wives the next morning why I couldn't walk so good! They understand, I am an idiot, I accept it!

    Til next time, Casey

    That's great that you could make a positive impact on a kid, especially one that is already trying to overcome some serious challenges. teach him how to throw tools around!

    oh, and thanks for the compliments. We're all about the new wave! [​IMG]

    It was good hanging with you guys again, seems like Paso
    was just last month.

    I would love to see the reaction of a cl*** full of kids to
    Bob and the roadster as show and tell. That would make my
    day even now.

    Have a safe tour.

    Thats awesome.

    You have to wonder these days, whether or not the kid really has a true learning disability, or the rabid liberal **** ***** teacher is just trying to cut his nuts off.

    Put it this way, they hardly EVER prescribe ritalin, etc, to little girls.

    WELDING at age 10? Theres nuthin wrong with that kids head, other than he's a genius... and freakin cool. He'll grow up and be another Bob Bleed!

    That's very cool you got that letter - you're going to make a big impression on that kid. Let me know if I can help or donate anything for him – mags, shirts, ?

    Oh yea, the pileup was fun.
