Oct. RideSmart Half Off Give Away

Post by DarcShadow » Tue Sep 04, 2012 9:00 am

Two trackdays in Oct., one at TWS on Sunday, Oct 21, and the other on Sunday, Oct. 28, at MSRH.

Answer the following 3 questions for your chance to win a half off track credit. As always the half off must be used by the winner and must be used in Sept. If something happens and you can't make it after winning the runner up will receive the discount.

There are no right or wrong answers, but please give them some thought and serious responses (to at least the first 2 anyway. )

Drawing will be held Sept. 18th, 9:00am.

1) What do you believe is the biggest thing to going faster on the track you need to work on?
2) What one item/system would you like to upgrade on your bike and why?
3) Humpty Dumpty Sat on a wall? What wall did Humpty sit on, and what exactly was Humpty?

1) What do you believe is the biggest thing to going faster on the track you need to work on?lines, holy crap lines
2) What one item/system would you like to upgrade on your bike and why?uhh right now the stator and regulator? :SideSplittingLaughter: other than that i guess, i would like better tires
3) Humpty Dumpty Sat on a wall? What wall did Humpty sit on, and what exactly was Humpty?
so just let me introduce myself
My name is Humpty, pronounced with a Umpty.
Yo ladies, oh how I like to hump thee.
And all the rappers in the top ten--please allow me to bump thee.
I'm steppin' tall, y'all,
and just like Humpty Dumpty
you're gonna fall when the stereos pump me.
I like to rhyme,
I like my beats funky,
I'm spunky. I like my oatmeal lumpy.
I'm sick wit dis, straight gangsta mack
but sometimes I get ridiculous
I'll eat up all your crackers and your licorice
hey yo fat girl, c'mere--are ya ticklish?
Yeah, I called ya fat.
Look at me, I'm skinny
It never stopped me from gettin' busy
I'm a freak
I like the girls with the boom
I once got busy in a Burger King bathroom
I'm crazy.
Allow me to amaze thee.
They say I'm ugly but it just don't faze me.
I'm still gettin' in the girls' pants
and I even got my own dance
{Chorus:}
The Humpty Dance is your chance to do the hump
Do the Humpty Hump, come on and do the Humpty Hump
Do the Humpty Hump, just watch me do the Humpty Hump
Do ya know what I'm doin', doin' the Humpty Hump
Do the Humpty Hump, do the Humpty Hump
Verse Two:
People say "Yo, Humpty, you're really funny lookin'"
that's all right 'cause I get things cookin'
Ya stare, ya glare, ya constantly try to compare me
but ya can't get near me
I give 'em more, see, and on the floor, B,
all the girls they adore me
Oh yes, ladies, I'm really bein' sincere
'cause in a 69 my humpty nose will tickle ya rear.
My nose is big, uh-uh I'm not ashamed
Big like a pickle, I'm still gettin' paid
I get laid by the ladies, ya know I'm in charge,
both how I'm livin' and my nose is large
I get stoopid, I shoot an arrow like Cupid,
I use a word that don't mean nothin', like looptid
I sang on Doowhutchalike, and if ya missed it,
I'm the one who said just grab 'em in the biscuits
Also told ya that I like to bite
Well, yeah, I guess it's obvious, I also like to write.
All ya had to do was give Humpty a chance
and now I'm gonna do my dance.
{Chorus}
Breakdown:
Oh, yeah, that's the break, y'all
Let me hear a little bit of that bass groove right here
Oh, yeah!
Now that I told ya a little bit about myself
The world needs Miles

And the winner is...fixxervi6, runner up is Fish R1


And in regards to the nursery rhyme questions...
Humpty Dumpty was in fact a large cannon unsed during the English Civil War (1642-149).

The cannon sat on the city wall of Colchester and during the siege of Colchester (July 14th, 1648) the wall was damaged and the cannon fell. The Soldiers (King's men) and calvery (Kiing's horses) tried to put the cannon up on another part of the wall but it was to heavy. They eventually surrendered to the attacking army.
