Rubi Kamper

So Nolen brought 'er to Gilmer ...

Stanley brought 'er to Baker Tire ...

and Josh brought 'er to The 3X's.

Took me a few hours to strip down ev'rythang Nolen had bolted on 'er.

One thang for damn sure ... the Club's Bitch ain't afraid of no drill. Best I could cypher he drilled 75 holes in the plastic top and 51 in the trailer ... for a grand total of 126 holes ... and I might of missed a few.

Scored me 'bout a hun'erd bucks in nuts and bolts though.

But when the dust cleared ... I had me a damn-fine lil' trailer.

Now just gotta fire up the internet ... burn up the American Express card .. and order me up a few parts and pieces to convert 'er to what I want.

I'd never give up on you sir.

So you want the hunk of plastic?

Deliver it to Round-up also?

How do you turn paper into pipe?

Carry on.

Was figurin' on usin' all the stuff when I bought the trailer sir ... that's what justified the price.

Once I got the thang in the shop and started to do some cypherin' ... realized I gotta shift gears and go a diff'rent direction.

Pissin' money away ... it's the Kowboy way By Gawd.

2 rack pieces ... SO ... 2 cases of beer ... Original Coors ... cans will be fine ... and 2 bags of ice ... delivered to Round-Up or Ramble.

Yep - I want it. Delivery to the Round-up would be great.

Paper into pipe - that's what I do... If Itold you how, two of us would know.

Seriously, we convert rolls of paper into paper tubes and cores used in manufacturing operations like paper mills, film plants, metal converters, furnature, construction, etc... Not very exciting but it pays the bills.

What are the plans?

So what kind of plans you got for the trailer? what is it that you want to add?

What kind of tent your buying? do you have one already in mind?

I am in the market for one, but don't know much about them.
I want a tent to put it either on a military trailer, or on top of my 80. I am kind of getting ready for that trip to colorado in the summer. By the way, there's no date for that trip yet. when is it?

According to the 2008 O'ficial Events it looks like August: 22 - 26.

TTR is going August 2-10 if'n anyone wants to tag along.

Some pics from last year here: Valkyrie610/Colorado2007 - Photobucket - Video and Image Hosting

LSLC hasn't posted up a date yet, don't know if they plan to...

As long it's before school I am in, don't want my kids to loose school. I will go with the group that will fit better my schedule.

" I vote for a date to include the weekend of August 16th and 17th or the 11th thru the 20th. Hint Hint."

David let me remind you that this is not a democracy and the voting not allow,(somewhere in the Bylaws rules, JA! ja! ja!)

"TTR is going August 2-10 if'n anyone wants to tag along."

I might tag along this time if you let me know before the time, better yet, I am going to write it down on my calendar.

Heck, no!! We had a guy get knocked out by a core once. Imagine telling your supervisor this: "Sir, he told me to throw it. How was I supposed to know he couldn't catch!!"

That story is not as uncommon as you might think. In 20 or so years I've heard it, or something very close to it, numerous times. I still think I would enjoy a little "smackin" when certain individuals get out of line......Maybe I'm going through my second childhood?

What about a word from our President/fearless leader on this matter(Colorado trip & plans for Trailer)?

And those samacking people with paper rolls, Stoop it!

......Maybe I'm going through my second childhood?

Sir, I can only agree w/ you!
