was just wondering on what the general opionion of the board was on the most offensive posts.
and the winner is.....
uh oh, Wait till JoeRocker sees this.
I have a feeling this thread will see the Tard Farm eventually, then Dave will be the winner with "Most posts sent to the Tard Farm." :thumb:
porn is offensive, especially to our female members. With respect to them, I'd rather have anything degrading to women off the forum. That's my .02
Snapper and the other female members: What do you think????
Nah, I'm flattered really. That I've made such an impression to rate a place in a poll brings tears to my eyes. Tears of joy.
At least you READ what I said and maybe it opened your eyes a bit. You are taught to believe a lot that is simply not correct. It's GOOD to hear opposing views.
I admire/respect the ones who are willing to stand up for what they believe. I don't admire lackeys who just agree because it's the popular view. I admire those who can cite case studies, provide raw numbers, anything substantial to support their points. Unfortunately they have all been woefully lacking. I haven't been beaten yet.
You all have the option of reading what I say or not. I've never told an untruth, never. I may get a fact or two wrong (and I admit it) but basically it's all true. Unpopular maybe but true nonetheless.
You may think I'm full of crap, a whacko, boorish, whatever.
Personally, I don't really care what you think. I know I'm right and most of you are wrong. But isn't that what we ALL think...
I wish everyone a safe and happy summer.
any gross pics should have warnings in the thread titles.
funny boob pics just shouldn't be here. if i want naked women on the internet, i can find better places to look.
as for joerocker, well . . .
I want to see a pic of joerocker.

the word "porn" has been overused. much of what people label as "porn" is not even close to pornography. for example,
this wallpaper was heckled as "porn!" by many people, when it couldn't be further from the truth. (this picture has half a buttock, but i bet even Kerry wouldn't be offended).
now, as far as porn being degrading to women? considering that most of the true pornography -- a multibillion $ business -- is targeted at men, i'm not so sure who exactly is being degraded.
finally, banning content because some people might be offended seems silly to me. labeling it is a great idea. then easily-offended people can stay away, while the rest of us can enjoy entertainment that sometimes happens to be off-colour. of course, this is your forum, so *shrug*.
my 2 cents :)
Hmm. Which is worse, having a left toe cut off or having a right toe cut off?
There are bound to be things I find offensive that others think are OK, and vice versa. I think the important thing as far as a site/forum like this is concerned is to avoid deliberately offending other members, apologise if you do inadvertently offend, and try not to do it again. If you are offended by something someone has posted, just say so. Don't get in a twist about it. A little mutual respect goes a long way. Labelling potentially offensive content is a good idea.
I think the main reason many people find joerocker's posts "offensive" is that the tone is often one of deliberately trying to offend, rather than simply trying to stimulate thought and discussion.
And Joe, in response to your above post re previous threads, it is fairly apparent to me that you are impervious to any evidence, no matter how reliable, that is contrary to your opinion. We have all seen it in your replies. The source is unreliable or the methodology suspect or it's taken out of context or one of a dozen different reasons to dismiss the argument so that you can contiue to believe your position. That's not how you persuade people, Joe. Or isn't that your intention?
Michael, and how are you any different? You deny MY evidence no matter the source. Even if it has just been published in a well respected magazine like Scientific American! You deny CDC numbers, you deny Papers published in Science magazine. If my idea is opposite yours, you fight it tooth and nail with nothing more than hearsay.
As for "offensive" what is offensive really? EVERYONE has their own idea and threshold for what THEY find offensive. Personally I don't find ANYTHING offensive. You could say anything here and I wouldn't be offended. I've been personally attacked and abused more than anyone here. I'm still here because I'm a survivor. I fight back instead of cowering and hiding under the "discrimination" or "offensive" safety blanket. I may think your wrong, have a STRANGE sense of humor, whatever, but offensive? Why would anyone be offended by anything? It's just some words on a screen, someone elese ideas. Why would you be offended by any picture? It's just a picture. Look briefly and then say "wow, sick" and forget it. Don't look again. I agree with a disclaimer in the title so the squeemish can avoid it entirely. But guess what, they'll most likely look anyway. It's human nature. I do agree that true "hate speech" is uncalledfor but it too shouldn't be censored. Nothing should be censored unless it's critical to the operation of a nation or would put the public in DIRECT danger.
As for "porn" or "boobs" pictures, men LIKE, no, they LOVE to look at naked women. Why? Because a man wants ALL the women in the world at least once. OK, not the really ugly or fat ones. A man is a sex machine. ALL we want to do is copulate with as many different women as possible. THAT is why men ALWAYS want to look at naked women. Look at star athletes, performers, any man with power, celebrity, money. They ALL have been with countless women whether they admit it or not. Who was it, "Magic Johnson" who admitted he had been with over 10,000 women? All men would do that if they could. Marriage is the booby prize. You get just one, BUT, you get her any time. So in the end it's an OK compromise. Sorry ladies, we're just plain different than you are. But I've been over that time and time again. And I don't want this post deleted.
As for my posts. Sure I admit I'm cocky sometimes. That's what happens when you're smarter than most, athletic, talented, and used to being a winner. Growing up I learned fast, was picked first in sports, was the class artist, played music (joerocker, get it? I have a one-man does it all CD like Mike Oldfield did but he's better), etc. I'm used to being at the top. I'm smart enough to have retired at 42 because I didn't want to spent my whole life working, getting up every day at 6am, getting home at 5pm, dealing with traffic, the politics of business, JUST to make money. How? By not being a follower. If you do as everyone else does you'll be poor (in debt) and working until you're 80. I DO have something to tell you that you probably are not aware of or haven't thought of in the same way I'm explaining it to you. Like it or not, we are all being manipulated by marketers who are VERY VERY good at "directing" your behavior, your values, your thoughts, about just about everything. EVERY major group has their marketers. Consume, accept, relax, is the their mantra. When I have to explain something in a different way for the 5th time I begin to lose my patience and yes, I talk down to you. I know I shouldn't but I get caught up in the heat of "battle".
So, am I still winning?
I think yer a freakin' psychotic ridin' an ol' Ninja 600, trying to convince everyone it's a great bike (including yourself) while inflating your own abilities to all who will listen. About the only things I agree with you on are that people get buggy when they live in close proximity to each other, eg. in the city, and that a lot of people read material or listen to someone and take the information at face value. The rest of your lapidarious oratorial discourse comes across more like the rantings of a mad-man...but please, don't stop, it makes for a fun read at any rate. Love the GS, the original HD VL, China (they're building their military), and this forum.

c,
Whatever... old man. And here it is, the first "nasty post", couldn't help yourself huh?
A Ninja sucks huh? Sure... c knows best, as always right? Can't ride one because of age related arthritis? If you could you'd be AMAZED at what it can do. Sure beats those POS Harleys you brag about all the time. Look in the newspaper, where I live there are 20-30 Harleys for sale and MAYBE one Honda OR one Kawasaki OR one Suzuki. If they're so great why are they the only thing for sale? Oh, how little you REALLY know. Those marketers got you good.
Your mellow tone (used to be anyway) in posts garnished you a lot of "followers". Sorry, not my style. I do what I want to do and I say what I want too. If you can't stand the heat, stay out of the kitchen, or don't read the post! You all hate me but you just HAVE to read what I say. Morbid curiosity? You secretly agree but CAN'T bring yourself to admit it? Maybe learned something about yourself?
So, where DO you live anyway? Never do say where. A city maybe? Getting "buggy" yourself? If you agree that people shouldn't take things at face value then why do you fight me? What do you think I've said that ISN'T true? Unnerving maybe, unpopular sure, but NOT untrue. It's all just another take on the truth, another possible explanation for things.
I see you dropped the wimpy tag line (Oooh, don't hurt, don't force...) the talk of a weakling for other weaklings. You people sound like a bunch of sissy girls. Ooooh, he offended me, someone help me. Delete his posts.
I also see you read the news. China WILL take over the world if things don't collapse first from the depletion of oil. China is 1/5 the worlds population. They can have a 1 BILLION man army if they want. They're growing in manufacturing just as the U.S. did before IT became a world leader. When everyone depends on you to make their things, you have REAL power. Look around in WalMart, EVERYTHING is made in China. The U.S. is losing jobs left and right, manufacturing is leaving in a flood. Most of whats left is "McJobs". The war in Iraq and Afghanastan was ONLY to get a stronghold in the middle east to protect the oil fields. What do we care about their civil liberties, about what we care for the Africans, millions killed every year. They just don't have anything we need. China may just decide to take the mideast oil fields away some day. I know Iran wants the oil too.
There's a lot of devious stuff going on in the world. Plans within plans.
Oh well, you people don't want to hear any "alternative" ideas, you don't want to flex your brains. So be it. I on the other hand am always looking, questioning, analyzing.
I'm crazy all right, like a fox.
I brag on my abilities:
a. Because I AM proud of myself (at least I HAVE things to be proud of).
b. so maybe some of you will realize that I AM smart enough to know the difference between the "con job" we are fed and the REAL agenda behind the things that happen.
Well, gotta finish dinner. Oh, a GREAT cook too, add that to the list. Tonight I'm making chicken with a white wine cream sauce.

My two pennyworth. Porn however defined and whatever it's called probably has a place somewhere but probably not on a Motorcycle forum with an eclectic membership. If people want to find it or create it there are plenty of places that should not be too difficult to find.
Heated debate on the other hand is another matter, I rather enjoyed some of the Political stuff prior to the last US election and I believe that honestly held views, even if very different to mine deserve an airing and discussion, even those of the gun-totin' right-wing loonies, OOOOOOOOOOOOPS, AAAAAWwwwwwwww rats! sorry, honest!
Yes it is a wind-up.

You deny CDC numbers, you deny Papers published in Science magazine. If my idea is opposite yours, you fight it tooth and nail with nothing more than hearsay.
Hmm, I probably shouldn't buy into this but I live in hope.
I'm not aware that I have dismissed anything you have presented just out of hand, based on "nothing more than hearsay". And I don't care where the article is published- if it's good science it can stand, if it's not it should fall. As part of my training I have had specific teaching in how to critically appraise scientific literature- was the study properly carried out using validated scientific methods, was the study that was performed able to answer the question raised, in other words, can this data be relied on to provide a sound basis for further research and clinical decisions. I have been forced to realise that a respected name such as the New England Journal of Medicine, Nature, Science, or Scientific American does not guarantee that every article published is above reproach.
The point I was making is that in the past you have presented articles from the journals you mentioned, among others, and would not believe they could be unsound, despite any evidence to show it, and have systematically ignored any evidence presented by others, no matter how much evidence there is to show that they are valid.
It seems that you believe you are the only one capable of being right. You want others to accept every word that comes out of your mouth as gospel truth, and that even if (heaven forbid) others are right, you are more right. Your self-published curriculum vitae in another post is certainly impressive, but I don't understand why this makes you think you have the right to be so uncharitable to us lesser mortals.
Hereafter, I intend to follow the advice of the old Arabic proverb, which says in part, "He who knows not, and knows not that he knows not, is a fool- shun him".
Michael,
Very good, no nastiness.
I'd say your quote applies more to the general populace than to me. Most of you have been bushwacked by those who would control you. You don't think you're being "led" in certain directions by the government, corporations, groups with an agenda?
I agree 100% with you as it pertains to testing. BUT, I don't indescriminately throw out evidence simply because I don't agree. I've been surprised numerous times when confronted with new evidence and I DO change my beliefs when appropriate. Does being published in a leading scientific journal mean it's ALWAYS accurate? NO. BUT, it's much better than getting your facts from "Bobs" or some political group's web site. Many of the "facts" used against me were from VERY questionable sources.
When I tell you what I think and what I believe the first time I'm simply explaining my view. I believe I do it in a fairly neutral, maybe a slight "teachie" (a word?) tone. It is when I am questioned (usually in an attack) that I begin to get my "attitude". You're right, I do act condescending sometimes. I should work on that.
Am I Mr. Wizard? Do I know it ALL? NO. I've said that many times. BUT, there are some things that I do feel very strongly that I do have the TRUE facts and not the propaganda that is commonly cited.
Why can't we just read what each other says and comment on the actual ideas and not the person. Most replies are simple character attacks and have no substance. MAYBE after a few of those from the same people over and over, I don't have ANY patience with them?
I'm NOT this: "He who knows not, and knows not that he knows not, is a fool". Quite the contrary, I have the time to check on the things that interest me, I have the time to dig deeper. I'm not working 40 hours a week having to rely on the "news" for my facts. I HAVE learned HOW to research, I too am a science man. Remember, I'm a retired meteorologist. We're trained to take a jumble of data and make sense of it.
Thanks for the civilized reply. There is hope...
Listen............what offends me most are politically correct, spineless, liberal/fascist/pussies. Fascist, I believe, is a word that correctly describes these insect men and women. They are "the ones" that DEMAND a mongrel race, more taxes to help the sorry sonsofbitches of society instead of FORCING them to work and every waking breath dedicated to heightened sensitivity. And that my friends is the height of hypocrisy.
These bastard children would become Nazis overnight if it helped their agenda. Their "agenda" is a "get whitey" world coupled with the monetary rape of the "working taxpayer" (two key-words...working.......taxpayer).
Them getting publicly caned until they were totally naked and had lost all bowel and bladder control would be a damn good start. I am tired of hearing how they want "responsible gun ownership" (keywords meaning "I want all your guns""They present a serious impediment to "our plans").........I am sick of hearing about how the "fish hurts" when you catch him and puts undue stress on it's body....I don't give a rat's ass personally. I want to laugh until I cry when I hear of some stupid sob living in a redwood for 3 weeks and driving spikes into it's trunk to "save it? Jesus. He/she should be beaten until an unrecognizable mush is formed. These kinds of people are offensive to me. Fortunately most of them live in New England and parts of California.
The problem is that "they" want to turn the rest of the USA into L.A. and Jew York. Together, my brethren, we will make a powerful fist. Lest we forget who the real enemy is. They are among us.
one knows "porn" when one see it just as one knows a faggot when one sees one. It's offensive when I'm informed that "I just need to accept it".
shaZam! on that. It was Adam and Eve.........NOT Adam and Steve. Get used to it. "We are not going anywhere". The sooner "open season" is declared, the better off the planet will be. Geez, I need to get some more coffee. BRB.................:)

John, loved floggin' a dead horse.
Yes! With Joe and Wilson on the same thread, we can finally get the Hitler youth division of GSTwin rolling. Seacrest out.
Youth ? hardly. Oh dear I think I know where this might be going.

For you Mr. Wilson...
QuoteFlorida's new law in action
INDIALANTIC, Fla. - Investigators released the name Tuesday of a man shot while breaking into the home of a Brevard County woman over the weekend.
They are praising the actions of the woman, who was able to find her gun in the dark and defend herself, WESH 2 News reported.
Investigators said Jason Preston, 33, (pictured, left) made so much noise breaking into the home, he not only woke up the owner, but also a next-door neighbor.
Widow Judith Kuntz, 64, lives alone. She said she heard and saw the man holding a flashlight come to her bedroom door in the darkened house.
"(Someone) broke into my house and I think I shot him," Kuntz told a 911 operator.
"Where did you shoot him," the dispatcher asked.
"I don't know. I shot at somebody who was at my bedroom door. I don't know. I'm not gonna come out of my bedroom," Kuntz said.
She only needed to fire one shot from her .38-caliber revolver. After that, the burglar staggered out into the yard and died.
"Did the person scream?" the dispatcher asked.
"Yes. Oh, I'm so scared," Kuntz said.
"OK. Just stay on the phone with me, m'am. I'm gonna get somebody there," the dispatcher said.
"Please, please hurry," Kuntz said.
Investigators said Preston was living temporarily with a cousin two streets away. He was looking for work, having just arrived from Michigan. Investigators said it should have been obvious that someone was home. They're still wondering if his intentions were burglary or worse.
"He's the only one that knows, and he's deceased," said a spokesman for the Brevard County Sheriff's Department.
Neighbors are unanimous in their support for the homeowner.
"I guess when you're scared and that's your reaction, is to defend yourself, is what you do, especially in your own home," said neighbor Gail Fischer.
"She did a great job," the sheriff's department spokesman said.
Investigators said Preston had a record of property crimes and domestic violence in Michigan.
Florida recently passed a law that gives citizens the same right to self-defense on the streets as was exercised by Kuntz in her home.
My favorite line is from the Sherriff: "She did a great job" In Mass the quote would have read: "She's being held without bail on 1st degree murder charges" -I'm totally serious.
A few years ago a man was improsoned here for doing what the unfortunatley-named Mrs Kuntz did. It sparked such public outrage that the law, or interpretation of the law has subtely changed, these days if you shot a burgular (with a legally held weapon) you would probably have Tony Blair round to congratulate you, and who's arguing.
John,
And do you know how hard some liberal groups are fighting those laws? Filling people with fear that if you look at someone wrong they can shoot you just because they were afraid of what you might do. Maybe we'll all be a little more polite to each other?
I'm a FIRM believer in protecting your person AND your property. I have NO love for violent criminals or thieves. Steal my car, I want your head. Rob my house, same punishment. Mug me for my money, slow and painful demise. 95% of crime is committed by 5% of the population. We don't need that 5% living anywhere. Prison should be for the juvenile offenders, hopefully we can set them straight as they mature. Commit those crimes as a responsible adult and BANG. The life of those people isn't worth a thing. BTW, most crime IS drug related. Stealing to buy drugs. That is a main reason drugs are illegal. People will do ANYTHING for that fix.
I'm not a curmudgeon but I do have some beliefs on right and wrong that I stubbornly hold on to. I'd say I'm a FIRM believer in the golden rule and I believe in self sufficientcy and survival of the fittest. Leave me and mine alone and I'll do the same for you. The only taxes we should pay is for PUBLIC projects (roads, police, military, etc.) NOT for personal long term help. UNLESS it's due to a REAL disability. Not this crap that passes for a disability now. If you REALLY need TEMPORARY help fine. But you WILL take ANY job offered to you.
Just got back from a wonderful 70 miler with the wife on the back. I just LOVE riding the county roads. Getting a rib roast ready for dinner.
just for the record, i'd rather see kitty cat (although not mrs. kuntz's), than a half-rotted horse corpse...
Joe, I'm cooking up 12 pounds of ribs today. Marrinated and ready to bake off :thumb: Your advice has proven to be the secret to good ribs.
I went on a 100+ mile switchback road ride yesterday in the mountains. Other than almost getting killed by a Jeep passing on a blind corner, thus running me off the road and almost over a cliff, it was a good day :thumb:
Thank you all! First, Cal my tomatoes are doing well although I am freaking out over weevils (I have 3 different types that plague me) and I have started using some "kill soap" from the garden centre to keep them at bay. My cowhorn peppers are coming along fine and I bought them thinking they were Thai peppers (labeled incorrectly). They are very mild and not hot at all. Here in South Louisiana we LOVE spicey and HOT. If you ever come to New Orleans or Baton Rouge you MUST give me a buzz and come over and eat. We'll think of something to cook. You will always have free food and a free place to sleep here. No charge. Ever. Please let me know in advance when you will be arriving.
Casi!!!!!!!!!!!! Rob!!!!!!! My MAN........long time no hear! How have you been? I will even cook a nice meal for thee as well! Sans poison!
You may drop by any time you like. Would love to talk and compare views. You stay from my daughter, however, or we'll be serving your head on a platter!!!!!! HAHAHAAHHA Just teasing.
John.......you are absolutely correct. I honestly believe with all my heart that all the fascist/liberal/spineless/pussies on this forum would agree wholeheartedly with you about me being a .........what was it......
curmudgeon...........HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHAH
When you get over a half century of emperical observation "under your belt", I think you'll............"get it" and be one as well........Love, Wilson
Mr Wilson. You earned yourself a custom title :lol: :thumb:
donkey chain(Redneck German) my darling! :)
There's one more thing I'd like to post and then I'll shut up. I can't take it and I just can't hold it back. Forgive me for being so brazen and willing to "lay it all on the line"..................since this post is about being "offended".........I have to declare another thing is offensive to me very much in my heart. I cannot STAND a MAN stating to me that he is "bisexual" vs "homosexual". Either you suck dicks or you don't. It's just that fuckin' simple! Love, Wilson

This one will land quite a few...
Hey John,
What's the deal here? This Wilson guy muscles in on MY thread and HE gets a name? What the hell!
Obviously I'm the most hated, loathed, obnoxious, offensive guy here. I have almost as many votes as ALL the other catagories combined! Don't I get a name too?
How about "Most hated man on GStwin" ? Or, "King Hiney" because I act like the king and sometimes I'm an @$$hole. Or, to totally fool the masses, "Master Chef" and I'll give you another secret, how to make the best rib roast (prime rib) you've ever had. Had it last night, and MAN, was it good! They think, Oh, this guy must be cool, maybe a little whimpy because he cooks, and WHAM! I pounce! Or, "The fisherman, don't let him hook you too".
You think about it. No ghey shaZam! either.
Hi Joe! "Old Mr. Wilson" has been around a long time. He drops in and out occasionally spewing his venom, bitterness, and anger at society in general but more so as to what has become of it. I'm sure all in good time that you will acquire a "nice handle". You are building quite a following here! It might become like "my following". Hahahahahha. I am viewed by some as a hard core-right wing-zealot-anti-ghey, anti-communist, anti-socialist, beer swilling, gun slinging, straight, married, Southerner! I would guess among the more (what we here in the USA label) liberal minded people I am envisioned as walking around with a quart of beer in one hand and a .45 in the other ranting, raving, and railing about raping, killing, and burning down half the country. I am actually not like these things and actually have a kindredness with tree huggers. I do not like to see trees cut down. Little animals live in them that I enjoy killing and eating. Deep down inside I am a likeable, loving, and sweet guy that enjoys cooking too! Keep the faith! Wilson
Happy now Joe :lol: If the shoe fits...
Wilson,
Saw an excellent bumper sticker today, thought you'd appreciate it too...
"If I'd known it would be like this, I'd have picked my own cotton".
Pretty good eh?
Quote from: Old Mr. Wilsonthat DEMAND a mongrel race,


personally, i could handle a little more of the mongrel race.
I love my white girlfriend. Asians like me taking white women away from honest, hard-working white christian males- my goal of creating a "Mongrel race" will be realized.

I'm glad that you can recognize that is all us minorities are good for :lol:
well I figure it's a win win situation, I get all the sex I can enjoy and they get to live here legally
John- to answer your question... it all depends! For the most part not much offends me. I can make a nasty/offensive comment as fast as any man. Check with the guys I have worked with. :lol: They start out surprised then they just enjoy it! But taking it from that side most of the comments made either by me or my friends are not serious. They are comments made for a laugh. None of us do it to degrade others. Ok there was one we tried to degrade on a regular basis, but it was based only on him and not his race, gender or religious beliefs. He annoyed me and I truly enjoyed annoying him. :lol:
I must say that I appreciate the gore or not safe at work warnings.
:mrgreen:
Political correctness in any form offends me. It's insulting to me and should be insulting to YOU for someone to purposely "con" you. That is exactly what PC is. A con game to "get the money". Get it? Do ya finally fuckin' GET IT? It just keeps hittin' ya in the head every morning like a sledge hammer and ya just don't fuckin' get it!!! Just like sex in advertising........your pocketbook gets screwed.........that's all....nothing more.........
Mr W, that's a great offer, I appreciate it. One day it will cost you an aligator steak! I have to find the time for a couple of biggish European trips plus a trip to Oz, It's no good me going "down under" whilst I'm still gainfully employed as I would like an absolute minimum six weeks, more like six months if I can organise things at home. I have long harboured an ambition to cross the US from West to East and fly home from Boston or NY. "Hollywood" America, and "Disney" Americal does nothing for me but I would love to see "real" America. My experience of "The Americas" is confined to Newfoundland, Carribean Islands and one night in Bangor Maine (Plane breakdown) which is not much.
After Oz, I might just call on you, probably two-three-four years down the line. Cheers
Something I forgot to ask, I have this retro-poster printed on a mirror for a Steamboat Company advertising "St Louis, Memphis, Greenville, Natchez, Baton Rouge & New Orleans. Is that still possible and is it worthwhile?
It has often intrigued me (Once a Ferryman always a Ferryman)
I would even wear a black stetson and play poker if it's a requirement!

Looks like, if you have
9 nights and $3000+ dollars (US), you're set! :)
EDIT: If you can manage 20 miles a day on a bicycle, and you have
100 nights, why not ride the entire
Mississippi River Trail? :mrgreen: (Still in development....)
Hey Cal !!! Let me think.........let me see...........ok looks like Mr. Kerry got you a price so let me tell you my experience with those "stopping points on the "Mighty Mississippi" River. St. Louis. I would assume that is where you would "get onboard". Have never been there and would not venture too far from the boat. Has a few nice landmarks. Memphis......
has some great barbeque and blues on Beale St.. "Memphis in May" is supposed to be a grand party for barbeque but I am a bit confused at to why one "has to be a member" of a "club" to eat any of the food cooked on the competetion grounds (guess for health dept. reasons). Spent many a weekend of my youth at Overton Square but that was 30 years ago. Have heard it has changed.......at lot.........and not for the good. Watch your path and kinda stick around safe areas. Greenville..........ahhhhh...
I am a "tiny bit" familiar with the area. That is in the Mississippi Delta. I spent 27 years of my life in the Delta before I escaped in '81. Greenville is on the river (of course) and has Gambling/gaming there. Not much else to do there. Population MAY be 40,000 due only to the Casino. Used to spend a bit of time at One Block East bar there. It was better than a 50 mile ride for me but it was great to get away. Hell I even rode my RD350 there a few times! Damn that was a long time ago. A great place to eat if it still exists is Doe's Steak House. Good aged beef and I do mean aged and tender. You have to realize that this is "Cotton Country". White Gold.
Now many Catfish and crawfish (crayfish) farms are springing up taking the place of the old revered cotton. Now.........Baton Rouge.........heard last week the "Metro Area" is at 603,000. In town population of about 1/4 million. Different times of the year have different festivals. Here in Louisiana it seems like there is always a festival of some sorts. You can gamble till your hearts content. Has some pretty interesting sights. Fairly safe in most areas. Great brunch at the Casino Rouge on Sundays. I work in Baton Rouge. Well I "report" there and then go to wherever. New Orleans........what can ya say? Black leather and vaseline baby! The French Quarter is crawling in decadence. If you got the jack, you can get the crack (ANY kind of crack--hahahahhahha). It is truly Sodom and Gomorrah but stay on the tourist paths in New Orleans and you'll probably be ok. I go down with Wifey at times to look at the old antiques and French architecture. Food is good. Well........a LOT of South Louisiana food is good. You can gamble at Harrah's if you like and Jackson's Brewery is a good place to walkabout just as is the Old French Market.
My wife and I have always wanted to make that ride from St. Louis to New Orleans but have never had quite enough vacation days. We are just gonna have to FORCE that issue one year! I will give you any and all help I can. Wilson
OH I FORGOT NATCHEZ!!! A nice place. Old time Mississippi charm. Quiet. Eat "Under the Hill" (a hangout of Jim Bowie's), it is actually kinda under a bluff and a couple of nice places to eat there. "The Post Resturant" is nice downtown and "Fat Mamma's" (also downtown) has some good hot tamales if you are into those! We can go to Ralph and Kacoo's off of Bluebonnet Ave. in Baton Rouge and get you some nice blackened alligator with hollandaise with a nice crisp green salade and hot buttered garlic bread. My daughter and I LOVE IT. It will melt in your mouth and oh so spicy. Wilson
p.s if you have du l'argent left when you get to Natchez, you can gamble there too!!!!
Quote from: johnHappy now Joe :lol: If the shoe fits...
I think you and Joe are both wrong about this. I doubt any of us, with the obvious exception of Wilson, actually hate Joe. Loathing is too strong an emotion for it. I reckon it's closer to pity, with some annoyance/irritation thrown in.
Waddy'all think?
?????????????????????? I don't hate Joe, you silly oaf!!!!!!!
I asked for it... Really. It's all in fun.
I don't hate any of you either. You're wrong, and I pity you too. I take it upon my self to "educate" you.
Remember what I always say:
Things are rarely as simple as they seem and the truth is rarely as simple as it appears.
thanks joe, we all needed that Vietcong style political "edcuation".
True, Remember what I always say:
People sitting in their trailers getting their culture from reruns of Springer make for some entertaining "conversations".

I resemble that comment! :o
