they are having way to much fun out there to think about us

Ill second that!

Side note...Rhino n I accidentally ended up taking 20 into Birmingham and didnt make it 8 miles before being pulled by alabamas finest!
What makes it even better is that we were just laughin bout how funny it would be if we were to GET pulled by them just so close to the hotel cause they was everywheres!
Best part...conversed a bit with em and they were nice enough to not give us a performance award even though after gettin back rollin and in between breaths from laughin so hard, Rhino did pop off and mention he kinda thought about maybe askin for a paper warning or something mainly because of the humor of the moment.
Oh well...see you suckers back in TX.
(damn...I dont know that I wanna go back...its too NICE here!)

That just means there bikes were on the trailer at Waffle House. I want to see pics of them on track. They probably broke down in Louisiana and spent the weekend at a casino. :-D

Hey for all I know they are there. Just because my profile is on there, it doesn't mean I'm ever actually on facebook.
