I gotta tell my Black Sheep story. I was working in one of our Urgent Care Clinics on the North end of Grand Rapids (Michigan) when this guy came in with a bad wound in his thigh. Seems he was riding a dirt bike in the woods and hit a deer. The deer's antler went into his thigh and almost made him a soprano!
I don't remember how the conversation started but I found out he owned a 97 triple black Corvette that he had upgraded with Z06 gear. He told me about the Black Sheep Squadron and the Corvette Forum. I had heard of neither one before this.
He also owned a Challenger Aerotech hot boat and this cool lookin Chevy truck that looked like a commercial rig that he used to haul his toys around with.
Right then and there I figured out that all Black Sheep must be crazy, hard-chargin party folk.
