Anyone around here famous?
« on: December 19, 2010, 03:50:22 PM »
I was just wondering if there's anyone famous here in the SOHC.net ranks.  Fess up!  And no... it doesn't count if it's only in your own mind! 8)

You've got to watch your back in the SSDB, this is where the clever guys get bored with bike talk and make poo jokes.
I like my women a little big. Natural. Now, they shave this and wax that. It's not right. I love natural women. Big women. This trend in women has to go. Bulomia, anorexia. That's just wrong. You know what will cure that? My special sticky buns. One lick of my sticky buns and your appetite will come right back. ~ RIP Mr. Borgnine  01/24/1917 - 07/08/2012  :'(

I really don't think that I want to air my laundry to a guy who has a rifled slug barrel as an avatar. ;)

Good pic.

It all counts.  Past, present, wanted by the law or not.  Well, now that I think about it, you might NOT want to tell us if you're wanted by the law.  ;D

I'm not famous anymore either (and maybe never was)

Nope, not here.
