Also posted in classifieds, but thought I might get a bit more activity here:

I have been too sick and weak, as well as adle brained and fuzzy headed from meds and bad blood to ride my Harley since about the middle of last July, so thought it a good time to work out a deal with a freind of mine to do some customizing to it while I was waiting to get a Kidney, and a transplant. I am now set for my transplant, as mentioned here before, in March and HOPE to feel like riding again this late spring and summertime.

Anyone have an old empty artillery shell casing or two laying around they can sell me or allow me to trade them out of? How about an old Stainless Steel Canteen? Also need two big green surplus ammo cans.

Over the Winter, and hopefully finishing up while I am in Seattle getting my Kidney Transplant (that will be a whole month ordeal....) my motorcycle mechanic and builder (who recieved a pretty decent lazer sighted 45ACP and a bunch of ammo in trade for his work here but this is still mostly a labor of friendship and fun) is finishing up the turbocharger add on and some cosmetic stuff to give my bike ('03 Harley Sportster/Roadster) a WW ll Warbird look to it. We are adding old ammo cans to the rear fender struts for my luggage bags, a SS Canteen for an oil bag for the turbochargers oiling system, some flying tiger teeth and eyes motief, and other touches.

What we would LIKE to do, to really set this bike apart, is use a couple of old artillery shells with about a 2.5-3.5 inch I.D for my exhaust pipe and turbocharger air intake tube.

Era, original caliber, country of origin not terribly important. He will cut, chop, weld as needed to marry the parts together. Only requirement being at least a 2.5 inch ID (3in or more is better)and in not rusted out condition.

Whatchagot?

Thanks in advance.

I am planning for another shot a life, in full again. My kidney is coming from a first cousin of mine.

I need one to have a shot at life, too. But unlike some might do, I am already looking forward to my life after being this sick this long. It as been a long and not fun haul, three years worth of just the worst part. FWIW, one cannot be considered for a Kidney Transplant until they are on the brink of death or Dyalysis, which I most certainly am.

Have any more value judgements to make based upon inadequate data and mis information?

If you are ever faced with a potential life ending disease, you can choose how you plan to give yourself some hope for the other side of said illness however you wish to. This is my way of having some things to look forward to while I am doing all of my rehab etc. And, my friend is doing this for me in large part to also give me a hope and dream to hang onto during some soon coming very dark days.

My great grandfather died from this, as did my grandfather. Both at a younger age than I am right now. Surviveability of this surgery with both of my old kidneys coming out is not 100%, either.

But it is well known that faith, along with hopes and dreams to look forward to help much in getting one through an ordeal like the one I have coming. 30 days worth at a minimum, before I can come home and continue a long rehab.

I HOPE to feel up to riding the motorcycle sometime after my surgery, and a good friend is fixing it up for me so that I am even more excited about it and the prospects.
Dude...
Another real safariman experience?

Actually, faith alone is sufficient.

Guns, bikes, etc are just as much a preoccupation before as they are after potential life changing events.

May want to re-evaluate your post operative life choices.


Thanks, you remembered me!

Ebay or any decent gun show. Hell, a good size Army Surplus shop would likely have it.

safariman is somehow having a double rifle that might be in hand later this year, and somehow sourcing a .45ACP with laser grips (that must have been a trade deal done), buying stuff at Cabelas and on here, and yet can't manage to get the cheapest of crap from Ebay or any number of online surplus dealers.

I agree with kamo_gari and RWE; priorities are skewed to an amazing degree.

That was epic.

Not "plans to build a WWII styled Harley Roadster while on the brink of death epic". But still, pretty fuggin' epic.

Yeah, I'm just hording the couple stainless ones I have waiting for the market to spike.
If safariman is going all the way across the state to UW to get his miracle transplant, you'd have to think he'd pass plenty of surplus shops along the way.

Of course, that's the location with the miracle KOA that's a perfect recovery unit for post-kidney transplants.

Due to the possibility of an artery suture blowout or my body starting to reject the new Kidney, I and my caregivers all have to stay within a 10 minute drive of the hospital for at least one month after the operation.


Then again, that's over in that area of the state where he couldn't attend a rally against I594:

There's a helluva lot of traveling anticipated, and a lot of dealing around going on.
Initialy he was headed east for the transplant. Now he is headed to Seattle hmmmm...
His ol lady will be by soon to tell everyone they are bullies for picking on SM
She may do well to make sure he stays on the script.

�ber fremdsch�men?

As I recall there was an incident of illegal concealed carry in Illinois or vicinity.

The Texas Heart Shot on the bear was funny.
You think if he would of just posted a quick add about the items he was looking for... For the most part most don't give a crap what he is doing with them and to a certain extent most aren't to concerned about what's going on in his life. A simple hey looking for some old artillery cases, stainless steel canteens etc and left it at that would of been to easy I guess...
Just when the "My Wife Doesn't Love Me" thread was starting to fizzle.

Thanks SM,,,, you never disappoint.





BTW,,,,, I have a couple of knives listed in the classified's.
Just thought I'd mention it because I'm sure it'll get more hits on this turd than it will over there.

Thanks for the post.


Walla Walla to Fort Lauderdale is about 4927kms, that's a long haul for a man as sick as you say you are.

And whether by land or air, it costs a lot of money to travel these days, hence your "I am poor as a church mouse crap" goes out the window.




Yeah, reading SM's posts are like driving past a wreck on the interstate. You can't help but look to see just what the latest drama the guy is stirring up. One can't help but wonder why he constantly sticks his foot in his mouth. Addled from drugs and bad blood? Well, then shut up until you aren't! Recent times that found me loopy from pain meds post-op sure as heck didn't find me trying to speak coherently or making dumb deals on the internet for all to see. To do otherwise is to exhibit a lack of inherent good sense, IMO.

As far as tricking out a bike in a military motif, the add-ons described would be kind of hokey to me. A far better approach would be to simply dress the bike with a finish scheme mimicking a WWII Harley, without a bunch gimcrack. Properly done it would be a stunning bit of understatement, IMO.

Why is your brother selling his bear?
Well, he's kind of my brother.

He answered an ad in a missionary trade magazine, and I call him my brother.

But he eats more than I can afford, so I need to lose him.

He won't make the follow up kill with a rifle, but he's a mean mf'er with a spear.

I am throwing in a 303 Enfield that I think is uber, to consummate the deal.

Don't get misled by the word consummate. My brother doesn't swing that way.

I don't know about anyone else, but if it were me, I think I'd be NOT buying .22LRs or any other stuff, NOT wheelin' and dealin' about bolting crap to a Harley, and NOT keeping anything that wasn't absolutely necessary, and NOT spending a dime on anything other than putting my soon-to-be-sliced-open-and-kidney-replaced self into a nice, comfortable, SAFE, CLEAN place for post-op recovery. I like me more than to think about a 5th wheel (the picture of uber-comfort, I'm sure) and a KOA (so clean they ought to just do the surgery right there anyway, right) for a post-op stay.

Got to thinking about the shells safariman wants to bolt onto the pipes, etc. 2.5" to 3.5" ID would necessitate a minimum of a British 4" shell up to and including the Brit 4.5" and US 5". Those shells weigh between 30 and 55 pounds, each, and the shells are thick steel in and of themselves. Heck, even the little 3" Brit shells from WWI weigh in at between 12 and 16 pounds each.

Yeah, like putting those on the ends of the pipes and intakes would work well.

We are adding old ammo cans to the rear fender struts for my luggage bags, a SS Canteen for an oil bag for the turbochargers oiling system, some flying tiger teeth and eyes motief, and other touches.

What we would LIKE to do, to really set this bike apart, is use a couple of old artillery shells with about a 2.5-3.5 inch I.D for my exhaust pipe and turbocharger air intake tube.

Era, original caliber, country of origin not terribly important. He will cut, chop, weld as needed to marry the parts together. Only requirement being at least a 2.5 inch ID (3in or more is better)and in not rusted out condition.

Thanks in advance.

Walla Walla to Fort Lauderdale is about 4927kms, that's a long haul for a man as sick as you say you are.

And whether by land or air, it costs a lot of money to travel these days, hence your "I am poor as a church mouse crap" goes out the window.

He won't...... hint.......

I can tell you from professional experience that regardless of whether the surgery is performed at UW or VM that he will spend atleast the first 2 weeks in a negative pressure ICU room with attached anteroom with minimal visitation to guard against infection and monitor for rejection. Typically discharge is 3-6 weeks post surgery for this stuff.

No KOA time in his near future.

I've transported several of these patients from both facilities and rather then wear PPE to protect others from them the spacesuit is worn to protect them from others.

I work on a critical care transport ambulance in Seattle so I'm not guessing.

Thank you.

I had a suspicion that a KOA with "facilities" was not going to facilitate post-op recovery.

I'd hazard a guess that a doc specializing in transplants might have covered this by now, but perhaps I'm mistaken.
Why does this thread remind me of this:

So let me get this straight.

I make a standard inane joke alluding to using the SI system as a handicap and get both a phu-Q and a "he's mean".

Whereas an inference to getting off on the bitch seat gets a grin.

the daughter of a very good friend just had a double kidney and pancreas transplant at Barnes-Jewish hospital in St Louis. The cause of kidney failure was life long type one diabetes.
The operation was flawless, and there seems to be no rejection issues.
HOWEVER, the recovery from this is more like THREE months. Or more. The family has had to rent an apartment next to the hospital, and someone has to stay with the lass every day, all day, and every night, all night.
It is not quick, easy, inexpensive or fun. Frankly this recovery is all the family is concentrating on.

FWIW to all of those poking fun, I did try the Military Surplus Stores around the region for this this stuff, and the artillery shells I want, according to a couple of them, are a thing of the past. No longer available. Something about Federal regulations that I had not heard before. So far, only aluminum canteens as well. I am still hoping for a stainless Steel canteen.

Not sure about them being regulated out of circulation, I had not heard that before, but it could be true. What is true so far is that my searches for the shell casings I want have come up empty. I did not think that asking about them here would bring up such a long thread.

Just trying to add some accessories to the bike while it is down for a while and being worked on anyway, on the cheap. I had no idea that a search for such would cause such a firestorm, but it did and I can live with that. No one was hurt, and some of you had some fun at this. Nothing to fret over. Despite all of the posts poking fun, I am STILL in hopes that someone has one or two of these laying around that they will let me buy or trade them out of. So far striking out at the surplus stores etc. Including on line. If none are found, life shall obviously go on and without much of a care over this one piece of the puzzle not going exactly as I had hoped. Not a big deal and especially not with - as many of you correctly noted - MUCH bigger fish to fry for me these days.

I did get a PM about the ammo cans, which is appreciated.

Some of you would not be fiddling with such things just weeks before a major surgery and long recovery and re hab. Fine. When it is you looking straight in the face of such a thing you plan for it and deal with it as YOU think will be most helpful for YOU.

As to my style or preferences, I want to have fun things that I used to be able to enjoy getting tweaked and tuned and ready for me so that when I am in a hospital room or lab somewhere in Seattle getting IV's put in and taken out, sick from too much or too little of this medicine or that while they try to dial it all in, and for many days dependant upon others to assist me with the basic body functions and activities of daily life.... that I have stuff that I love ready for me to try as soon as I am physically able. I may NOT be quite up to much of a ride or varmint shoot for still months even after I am released from the transplant Center. But the hope and dream being there will lend brightness and a smile to those days drudgery, needles, and feeling quite sick which I am told await me.

This is my way, does not have to be yours. And in fact I do not recall suggesting that anyone besides me handle a potentially fatal procedure and long re hab in my way. I only asked if someone had a couple of items that I need to complete a project. that is not. Getting them or having them on hand for my bike builder friend to use will be a nice fun touch. But not haveing them would not be so bad, either. It ain't this big of a deal folks. Well, too me, anyway.

Mister, if there is only ONE thing the rest of us have learned from your posts here, over the years, it's that EVERYTHING about your life is a really big deal to you, and, you have some strange compulsion to "share" it with us.

Mister, if there is only ONE thing the rest of us have learned from your posts here, over the years, it's that EVERYTHING about your life is a really big deal to you, and, you have some strange compulsion to "share" it with us.

It's all part of the narcissism and the scam. The "it's all about me" meshes well with the "I'm a victim and I'm being persecuted" line of their "belief system". If they aren't the center of attention and especially if they feel like they aren't being ridiculed or persecuted or otherwise made a victim, then they simply aren't complete. This gets twisted right up into the long con as they can play the "we're victims; people are mean to us because of what we believe; we're sick; we're poor; please help us" line. With that, they gain confidence and compassion from the marks, and the scam works. At any point along the line when they are caught, the fall back to "we're sick; we're poor; you hate us because of our beliefs" mantra gets trotted right back out.

They've gotten a few to buy into the sales pitch and have their posse ready to ride to their defense whenever they are caught ("leave them alone"; "they're good Christians"; "he/they treated me right"; etc.). That little bit of "done right" builds right into the story line and makes the long con even more effective.

Isn't it just amazing how it's always someone else's fault that the deal went south, or that the old folks called in the insurance bureau and he got nailed, or that they are dead broke (constantly; yet always buying total crap instead of saving a dime), or that the bear didn't get ass-shot and then killed by someone else, or... well, you get the picture. It's part of the narcissism, of the always being a victim and persecuted, and of the con.

Alex,

What is an attention whore?
I have located the artillery shells, ammo cans and S.S. canteen. I was going to donate them to SM, but I saw another thread. Now we're gonna have to build a custom range cart for gunswizard. Does anybody have an uber small winch that we can mount to it? 4WD carts are hard to come by.
Some food for thought, from Martha Stout:


�After listening for almost twenty-five years to the stories my patients tell me about sociopaths who have invaded and injured their lives, when I am asked, �How can I tell whom not to trust?� the answer I give usually surprises people. The natural expectation is that I will describe some sinister-sounding detail of behavior or snippet of body language or threatening use of language that is the subtle giveaway. Instead, I take people aback by assuring them that the tip-off is none of these things, for none of these things is reliably present. Rather, the best clue is, of all things, the pity play. The most reliable sign, the most universal behavior of unscrupulous people is not directed, as one might imagine, at our fearfulness. It is, perversely, an appeal to our sympathy.�
- Martha Stout, The Sociopath Next Door


Sociopaths have no regard whatsoever for the social contract, but they do know how to use it to their advantage. And all in all, I am sure that if the devil existed, he would want us to feel very sorry for him.�
- Martha Stout, The Sociopath Next Door


�If, instead, you find yourself often pitying someone who consistently hurts you or other people, and who actively campaigns for your sympathy, the chances are close to 100 percent that you are dealing with a sociopath.�
- Martha Stout, The Sociopath Next Door: The Ruthless Versus the Rest of Us


�when confronted with a destructive outcome that is clearly their doing, they will say, plain and simple, �I never did that,� and will to all appearances believe their own direct lie.�
- Martha Stout, The Sociopath Next Door

I can't recall him ever even hurtin' anybody's feelers.

Psychotic, no . Sociopathic absolutely. Can't be psychotic by the definition of psychotic, but there are sociopathic persons who may be bipolar, manic depressive. There can be some fleeting delusional stuff with bipolar D.O.

But the real question, IMHO, is what kind of perverse pleasure do those people get, by denigrating others over and over, just to make themselves look superior. May I live in hell if I ever resort to feathering my ego, by a constant tirade of bullying someone, who obviously is not well. Just don't answer his ads.... not out of sympathy, but out of self respect.

I cannot recall safariman, and certainly not his wife, denigrating anyone. Not saying it never happened, but only that compared to the rest of the lot on this site, he is no worse than many and much better than most, in that regard.

Neither, do I believe it fair to cast his sins upon his wife. She should have no part in any of this piling on. The lions share of her posts that I have read, are praying for and encouraging others.

The same goes, lady.
I know it. Just thought you might need reminding.
Calm down, this has been a productive thread in many respects.

Duct taping beer cans together for exhaust stacks being but one of many innovative and exciting custom touches we've developed.

I think an oak framed chopper powered by a 5.9 Cummins would be cool ....using small highway culverts for the exhaust pipes.
Not at all, but I appreciate your concern about my self-respect. I'm not looking at him or them with rose-colored glasses and I'm not buying what they're selling for a myriad of reasons.
Spending an awful lot of attention on this thread, for someone not buying. And yes, self respect is a good thing.

And recyling beer cans might could be a good endeavor for those who may have a couple thousand out on the back deck over winter.
Might give 'em purpose.
I simply enjoy making fun of them.

And I lost all my self-respect a long time ago. So no worries there.

I've been to a few of Windsor's Cultural Establishments in my sordid past, strictly on work related functions as my employer is based in Detroit. I can say I have not seen any midgets there. That my honor is my story and I am sticking with it!
Safariman,


I would like to give you a big THANK YOU...



...for all of the entertainment you provide.



Even if it is inadvertent...
"But the real question, IMHO, is what kind of perverse pleasure do those people get, by denigrating others over and over, just to make themselves look superior."

Ma'am.. I won't pretend to speak for other members, but trying to make myself look superior by denigrating S M plays no part in my responses. It goes without saying that YOU have never spent ANY time around an an ALL MALE large hunting campfire. A lot of us have.

If the group gets large enough, there will be one guy who resembles S M. He has to blow smoke, exaggerating his abilities and experiences, while at the same time trying to con someone by the "poor me routine".

Belittling him is the only way to shut him up and stop him from continuing to make a fool of himself by contaminating the campfire discussion.

In the REAL world, he will pipe down or go home.

Just because it doesn't work on the internet don't mean we ain't gonna try it.

Since I'm all for Darwinism , I would like to donate a nitrous system.
My mother is looking to sell her Road King if you're interested. Only 86,000 miles on it. Bought new. Course she rode it through a couple of back surgeries too.

She's put on 175,000 miles on a Harley in the last chunk of years - living in Wisconsin.

Never knew that adding a couple hundert pounds to the bike would make it more bad ass.

Does it cone with a bi-pod?
Nope - she's getting a trike. Lost 60% of her strength in her legs due to back issues - can't hold up a bike anymore.

Point being - putting a thousand miles a year isn't all that impressive to me when I see a 60 year old woman put on 30k in a state that has 6 months of winter and I've never met anyone with a clue that wanted to add weight to a bike unless they had some sort of OCC/Paul JR mancrush fetish.

At that point I assume they own more HD t-shirts than miles.

Found the empty artillery cases I need. Thank you to all who PM'ed me links and places to look. Very inexpensive way to add a fun and unique feature to the bike while it is down and getting worked on anyway.

The bike and my surgically repaired body should be ready to ride together by this summer. Something I can really look forward to.

To those who do not understand someone who likes to have a dream and or a hope to think upon while going through a tough time and who poke fun at the idea, I am glad you got a laugh out of it. It does not bother me, really as this is just the internet. It ain't real life. To those who do understand and have been helpful to me in this search, many thanks.

Kinda sad that just a couple of years ago a post like the one I made here would have resulted in ideas shared on where and how best to find the big shells a person wanted or was looking for, and a fun conversation about what the bike might look like and maybe link to some other bikes with a WW ll look or theme to them.

I think that some of you here will like the looks of the bike when it is all done. Some will not, and that is OK, too.

Obviously not.

Cuz doesn't rate consideration of even flea market "bling" to the Harley, either.

You hit it squarely when you said that, being in the same shoes, you'd be concerned about doing something extremely nice for the cousin that's giving you a chance at life again. But, I take it you don't have a Harley. Then again, I'm sure your wife doesn't ride around on semi-bald, used tires while you're buying firearms and other crap, either.

A big old 45 inch flathead, with the springer front, rocker clutch, tank shift, and white stars is about the "WW2 look".

A turbocharged "Drag Bike" with artillery shells for "Mufflers", and ammo cans for panniers just sounds flat out STUPID, and not just a little bit grotesque.

.....and I'd tell anybody who came up with this demented wet dream of a "Concept Bike" the same damn thing.

I highly doubt he/she does.

Whoever it MAY be, they must have a bit of money to afford all that time off work, and be able to pay for their own medical expenses, transportation, accommodation, meals, medications, and follow up medical visits and tests. A very small portion of the pre-op testing and medical services required MAY be covered if they have insurance. Many insurance companies say donors expenses are not covered due to the fact "donating" is voluntary and therefore not cover under standard policies.
I campaigned this twin turbo Drag unicycle some years back.

The car looking thing up front was in the air for the entire length of whatever strip we ran it on. Sorta' like wheelie bars, only up front.

Steered easily by using the doors as rudders, they are connected to the sterring wheel by a clever linkage cobbled up out of old lifeboat compasses, and the diferential out of a 1914 Packard car.

The ram air intakes added a little boost, and were great for playing Glenn Miller and Artie Shaw while parked, and drinking gin.

If anyone would like me to re-commission this beaut, a fine layaway plan is available, PM me for details.

You'll probably have to have a stable of giant wheels,....and Track conditions and temperatures depending, be able to swap from extra sharp down to medium, or mild.

Kinda sad that just a couple of years ago a post like the one I made here would have resulted in ideas shared on where and how best to find the big shells a person wanted or was looking for, and a fun conversation about what the bike might look like and maybe link to some other bikes with a WW ll look or theme to them.



A couple of years ago everyone hadn't realized you were a lying, manipulative POS who scammed people in the classifieds and conned old people for a living.

Ever seen "Kelly's Heroes"?

Yes,is it the scene where the "hippees" are drinking wine?
Not "hippies"; Oddball. Sutherland's character in that movie was just classic.

(Explosions all around throughout)
Oddball: Hi, maaan...
Big Joe: Wadda ya doin'?
Oddball: I'm drinking wine, an' eating cheese, and catching some rays, you know...
Big Joe: What's happening?
Oddball: Well, the tank's broken and they're trying to fix it.
Big Joe: Well then why in the Hell aren't you up there helpin' 'em?
Oddball: (laughing) Oh... man... I only ride 'm, I don't know what makes 'em work, hmm.

I thought it rather appropriate. wink
Yeah! it is!

Do bad kidneys affect brain function?

Absolutely they do. When your filtering system is only clearing out 20% of the poisons and crap in the blood that feeds the brain, then add to that the 20-30 pills I take daily...

Right before I wrote the long post that started this, I had recieved some great advice from a friend to keep my posts short, and to a very distinct point without too much personal information. AndI recongnized that his advice WAS good and IS good. Then I did this mega post with waaaaayyyyyy to much stuff in it.

What I should have posted was

"Anyone here have an old artillery shell they can stand to get rid of? The military surplus stores don't seem to have them anymore and I want one for a fun project" PERIOD!

Instead, I give 1/2 or more of my life history, again! Talking about stuff that only I care about, and does not matter.

So, going forward, I hope to be better at choosing my posts, and being LOTS more brief.

My worst posts seem to be late at night when I have taken a hatfull of crap and I am really tired. Big hint for yours truly there. With that, over and out for this evening ladies and gentlemen.

Glad ya'll had some fun with this, I sure bring a bunch of it on myself. THAT is for darned sure! To my good friend who tried to encourage me to pipe down a little. Don't give up on me yet, brother!

Hope ya'll have a great night going forward here. See you all tomorrow.

Then why are you not on dialysis? If your kidney function is clearing "out 20% of the poisons and crap in the blood" you should be on dialysis.

Brother Dear, he is NEVER, EVER, telling you, or me, or anyone else, the truth.

If you truly want to know, there are ways to know, without him telling you.
True,as always you are right. wink

to give you an answer, it depends upon each patient's individual needs of functional capacity. 20% clearance function might not necessarily equate to his glomulary filtration rate. Some patients can squeak out their living faculties with 10% kidney function and some even can exist on 3-5% function with strict dietary restraints.

20% is usually the accepted baseline for referral onto advanced renal intervention therapy

However since he is obviously bringing his own family donated kidney to the table, he will circumvent the dialysis pathway.

To recap: depends upon the overall health and well-being of the individual and his other extenuating conditions (heart, liver function, other diseases, physical condition, etc)


Hope this helps
"To recap: depends upon the overall health and well-being of the individual and his other extenuating conditions (heart, liver function, other diseases, physical condition, etc)"

Would having a LOT of tattoos help?

So would that make someone an 80% if they takes it in the can....teen?


Travis???? A little help here.

Maybe we should cover what Midget Racing is REALLY supposed to mean.

These days we'd have to call them "little people race cars",or face the wrath of human rights advocacy.

My brother inlaw has diabetes he runs 150 head of cattle up in Oregon and he goes in for dyalisis 3 times a week he takes a van up to Bend Oregon with the rest of the folks who need dylalsis. He still manages to feed his cattle every day still manages to get through calving season etc. I was talking to him the other day I said Ed I will give you one of mine he goes nah man I'm doing fine but thanks his sister (my wife) even said she donate a kidney. What's the point of this my BIL is a very humble man you dont see him runnign around crying woe is me I have this disease. If SM could be half the guy my BIL is [bleep] he be a better man. But as other say I think this is another con there is no kidney being donated he didnt offer up explanation how it went from being done back east to now being in done in seattle, as others say who does recvoery in a KOA after a major transplant like that. I think he cant keep up with his own line bullshit. His wife you think would pull him to the side and give him a pep talk but as others said she is probably a big part of this con. I think he pulled this out of his to avoid any type of lawsuits from family members when he was selling insurance I would not be surprised if everythign he owns is in his wifes name as well.

Please note that Mark is not a "man", he is a "male" of the species, but nowhere near being a "man", nor will he ever be. He has proved that to the world.

Please also note from your description that your BIL is a "Man". He is proving that everyday to the world.

There is no comparison between the two, now, or ever.

Closest KOA I see is in Kent so about 20-25 miles south of Seattle.

" 99 unusual and odd ways to "personalize" your Motorcycle, and compromise it's performance on a high / unlimited budget".

GTC
KOA's are full of old people with a few spare bucks that are ripe for a good old fashioned long-con.
For just a while I hoped this thread would provide fertile ground for the pre-introduction Sneak Peek Special on my new "Race Greener" totally organic rear tires,....made 100% from American hard and softwoods, bonded with some stuff we get from a local rendering plant.
They make a "Smoke Show" put on by a ribber tire look like a smoldering cigarette in a Tangiers cat house,....and when properly run, provide fire that Hollywood only dreams of.
Sigh,.....looks like the "F#ck the ETs, my bikes COOLER lookin' than yours" was going to take Root ( that one's for Larry), but it would seem that readers here are a tough sell on that philosophy.

I think I'll wait,....but those who are REALLY interested can send a measly $499.99 Cashier's check, for best buy on the first stock options.

This is BIG,....get in on the ground floor, cuz' when the street versions are introduced, you'll be in fat city.

GTC
Will you take $4.99 and an IOU from my lender,you may have heard of him,his initials are BO.
Well, that would be a start.

Just imagine not having to screw around with Armorall and Whitewall cleaners after washing the family car on Saturday.

Rub those Woodwalls down with a bit of Tru Oil and
BAM !,....you're stylin'.

I tell ya',....this is BIG, and you're hearing it here first.

GTC
But wait there's more! If you act now you'll get 2 for the price of 3. That's right folks,for a limited time only!

Hows that Cross. grin
I'm thinkin' that for a limited time, introductory offer, we'll offer a kiddy car with miniature wooden wheels, to those who buy a full set.

For the adults, maybe some baseball hats and coffee mugs.

I gotta' dash,....OSHA's freakin' out about the "splinter incident",.....engendered by some idiot balancing one without gloves on.

GTC
That's it!

You're gonna be a millionaire!
I'm thinking that this new to him kidney is going to be "non-functional" and he's going to want to return for a refund. Thinking the donor is going to say "No refund" it was sold "as is".

I don't wish this on anybody, but just thinkin!!
Ya'all should be ashamed. The OP has been on his deathbed so long he can't even hold his uber magnum steady to make a clean killing shot on a bear. He has to take 20-30 pills a day, and they get so expensive that he has to buy cheap .22 Lr ammo, and re-sell it at 1000% mark up just to afford the medication fees

It's obvious to me that he wants to soup up his bike so that he can race it and win prize money in order to pay for his recovery time at the KOA

Just think that if only every poster on this tread purchases his books "how to do the Christian hustle for dummies". And the non FFL guide to selling guns for a living", the royalties would keep with flush enough pockets that he may never have to swindle another old couple again


It's all about giving here folks

Lol

I had a dream last night that the cousin had to be winched out of a gorge to recover the kidney.
Was the cousin shot in the ass.?
Mousing error,....did not mean to post wiener racing in the middle of someone else's thread.

A miraculous, overnight, Divine refurbishment of his diseased kidneys is gonna be his best way out of the web he's woven.
Yea i'm expecting something similar to that as well
I figure he's trying hard to get into some cartel activities, or mafia stuff, just so he can turn state's evidence and have someone else pay for witness protection.
