Looking at the 4 Horseman of the Apocalypse, reminds me of Tom B, Tim, the nutty dude on the Husky supermoto, and... me, and a couple others. Let's not terrorize N. GA that bad this time around!  | ||

I'm good... Right arm immobilized for the rest of today. Surgery went very well, they were able to avoid using stents so my outlook is very good. Doubling up on my lipitor script and will have continuing Dr. visits. | ||
| Hughlysses |
Glad to hear it was a good outcome. If they didn't use stents, what did they do? | ||
| Pwnzor |
I will find out the full details at my follow-up visit. Apparently they can break up blockages and remove them or use a balloon to open up the pathway, I'm not really sure yet. | ||
| Hughlysses |
Seems like I've read they now have something that is basically a micro "Roto Rooter". It actually slices the build up off the artery walls. The center of the "cutter" is open, so the removed stuff is vacuumed out as it goes. At any rate, glad you got a good report. | ||

I see your three headed giraffe, and raise you Erik flashing the 3%er's sign!  THREE DAYS! | ||

Shocking!  Awesome news, Matthew! If you get a chance, shoot me a list of your whiskeys- IIRC I haven't seen it yet- and if I can before I head that way, I'll pick up something new. (I've got an idea already, but still gonna confer with my liquor store experts.) That is, if I'm not completely broke... my fundage is shrinking, dammit! | ||
| Pwnzor |
Brad, scroll back a few pages, the whiskey list is there. Speaking of fundage... anybody that can chip in on these shirts that hasn't already done so... please do. People who show up are getting shirts regardless, but I'm struggling with medical bills now... so... hook a brother up. The shirts cost me $34.00 each, and I have 20 of them. So far, I have been paid for 6, which leaves me at a deficit of $476.00. I was originally prepared to absorb the entire cost. But, after I ordered the shirts, I found out I needed heart surgery and had to cough up $6350 out of pocket. Not trying to make it into a sob story, I wasn't expecting to be diagnosed with heart disease. I understand nobody asked me to make the shirts. I understand people have tight budgets. I will not lay a guilt trip or pissy attitude on anybody who doesn't have the extra funds to buy a shirt. Having said that, even $5 or $10 will help and would be gratefully accepted. The BadWeB family always pulls together when the chips are down. Well, mine are on the table right now. Thanks to anyone who can help out. PM me for my PayPal address, or throw me some cash at TWoS, or if you just can't... well then it is what it is. We're down to less than 3 days here people, and I can hardly wait. Friday morning, I'm going to the tag office to register my vehicles and then I'll be on my way up to Suches. Mrs. Anthony gets off work at 1pm and will try to head up around sunset. I had to promise to bring back some BBQ for her from Jim's... pushy broad that she is.    (Message edited by pwnzor on March 30, 2016) | ||

I can't make it to the badness, but I'll chip in for the shirts. Where do I send it? | ||
| Paint_shaker |
Bikes and camping gear loaded. We should be arriving sometime in the afternoon on Friday. Camping at TWOoS. Save me 2 of those shirts in large and I will pay for them when we get there. | ||
| Tootal |
See you on Friday with cash in hand and I'm really glad the procedure went well!  | ||
| Crusty |
 What Tootal said. See you the day after tomorrow. | ||
| Cupcake_mike |
Should be getting in Thursday evening, I'll have cash for you. Mike | ||
| Pwnzor |
Thanks for the support, guys! Hootowl, I need to make sure that everybody who attends gets a shirt, and any that are left over will be made available on Monday. ONE DAY LEFT!!!  | ||
| Hootowl |
Oh, I don't want a shirt (OK, I do  ) I was just going to throw a few bucks at you to help cover your out-of-pocket cost. | ||
| Pwnzor |
PayPal address is: payment@zero3nine.com Every little bit helps, I did make a couple of shirts for the owners of TWoS, but I might have an extra one when all is said and done. I'll let you know how it shakes out. Any generosities shown will absolutely be paid forward to the BadWeB Karma Pool. | ||

I just read on the Crusty's travels thread that Froggy is joining us... It's officially a party now! | ||
| 86129squids |
(repost...) Hey Matthew- you know the better sources for weather info around the area- post up the latest as you can! The forecast for Knoxvegas is all over the place, pretty aggravating...  | ||
| Pwnzor |
Suches forecast is good:  Current rain situation is a bit ugly, but it should blow through quickly.  | ||

Current rain situation is a bit ugly, but it should blow through quickly. That's probably the crap that I'll have to ride through tomorrow, TYVM. As long as it's not 42° when the rain finally lets up - like it was last year - I should be fine... 1313 | ||
| Glitch |
Its real muggy right now, I can tell the rain is on the way. Don't worry too much, if anyone does run into any, it'll be a warm rain, and warm after the rain. I don't remember last year, but we've not had much of a winter at all this year, that usually means, the riding will be good. | ||
| 86129squids |
It's all my fault- I ended up washing and waxing my Triumph yesterday! DAMMIT.  Good news is my gear is all there, need to waterproof my gloves and that's about it. Hoping to roll with Crust and Frogs if possible... think they're heading down 129 to get there. | ||
| Hughlysses |
Last year, it rained for all ~300 miles for my trip up on Thursday, it was beautiful Friday and Saturday, and it rained all ~300 miles for my trip home on Sunday. | ||
| Chadhargis |
I've taken the day off tomorrow. I have a few errands to run tomorrow morning, then I'll mount up and head East by way of the most indirect route. I hope to roll into TWO sometime late afternoon or early evening. I'll have my camping gear at the ready, but hope I can crash on the floor somewhere.

At the Gwinnett tag office spilling my blood and sweat, I will be heading up the hill as soon as I'm done. | ||
| 86129squids |
Got about 6 more bites of breakfast, then bags on, kickstand up!!!  | ||

Matthew count me in for an XL  . I should be in there by sometime Saturday am. Still flipping on method of travel. Stuck working today, a good sucky kind of thing. Hate to not ride the Uly. It seems so happy to be out of the shed lately.  See ya'll as soon as I can. | ||
| Pwnzor |
Already had you on the list for XL. Sitting here waiting for the tax commissioner to release my license plate that their system thinks is lost or stolen.... Gotta love that, been driving around with "stolen" plates for God only knows how long....? | ||
| Ourdee |
Brankin, That's probably the crap that I'll have to ride through tomorrow, TYVM. That is what you get to ride through. I only wish I could be there riding in it. You are blessed! ,R.D. | ||
| Ulywife |
Hope everyone has a great time this weekend! Please post lots of pictures for those of us who can't be there with you. Ride your own ride and be safe. |
