Brystheguy and Batmanfire,

So you went to UNI. Cool so do I. I've lived in Cedar Falls my whole life except for Army times. (UNI is in Cedar Falls for everyone else).

Man, I LOVE that show. We get it here in Saudi and I watch it whenever I can - a lot of the guys out here do.

If you have the time one day, and a digital camera... do you reckon you could ask the guys for a pic, outside the workshop holding up a sign saying "Hi to the guys in Saudi" or even "Hi Elvis in Saudi"?

That would be THE coolest and you would go STRAIGHT to the very top of my Christmas card mailing list!!!



*note* Elvis is my nickname (I've actually been called that longer than my real name!!!) and YES, the expats in Saudi are easily entertained!!!

Actually I pass Senior on the road many times. He works out at my gym. Real nice people. Mikey comes in with a heavy sweat shirt...
I don't bother them as I am sure they get hounded big time.
Just had a guy come in one of my stores that dropped 150K on a theme bike.

It has a logo of a Rat on it.

He said he patented some kind of friction drive wheels. Kinda like what a planetary gear drive looks like.
He should be on one of the shows coming up soon.

Don't know if you saw the show with the singing telegram with the guy in the diaper? Thats Andree he comes in too...he's from the radio station we do adds with.

Can you get the OCC T shirts in Saudi?

Very cool, I would give my left "scrotal occupant" to work in a place like that - I LOVE working with my hands.

I didn't catch the show you're talking about. It's hard to catch the show all the time as I work shifts and sometimes we're out gigging (hehehe, my 10 year old son thinks I'm way because I play bass in a band AND own a Corvette. Apparently all I need now is a Harley! ). I've even managed to get my missus enjoying OCC - she's quite impressed with how the guys can start with basically nothing and finish with a masterpiece - even if you don't like a particular bike, you still have to admire the end result and the workmanship that's gone into it.

No, we can't get OCC T shirts out here - well, I've never seen them
