You know I was going to give you a hard time for being oblivious to one of the funnier threads in recent Vital memory, but it occurs to me that was around the time that you melted down so bad over claim-gate that you changed screen names then told everyone you were going to commit suicide because magoofan said mean words and you disappeared for a couple of years. So I'll give you a pass.

Plus that particular garage is attached to our guest quarters.

Reminds me of a Will Rogers quote.

You can run with the wolves or piss with the pups.  I highly suggest you or any of the other bitter pups here to learn how to use VTT and then have the grammar proofread in AI so you don't have to waste time doing it yourself.  AI didn't create my post.  You can continue typing fast and proofreading yourself which still works, but in this quickly changing world typing isn't really necessary anymore.  Typing is actually the best thing I ever learned, period. It made me very successful being able to juggle/respond when I was growing my business.  Way better skill than any college degree or training I have, but times have changed.  I could train you quickly how to make money while you sleep, but I'll save that for the 5% of guys who want to run with the wolves.

No, 99% of my time spent on Vital is when I'm at the office or warehouse and I'm sitting on a conference call or doing something tedious that allows for multitasking while my machines are busy, like batch processing, syncing, uploading customer packages, etc.  Vital is not my leisure time activity, it's just something I check in on when work allows for it, like right now with a 1.5hr conference call that I'm attending for good faith, because my employees will do all the talking.

What’s different? New riders moving up to 450 is nothing new and multiple phenoms have come in and fizzled. I expect Prado to run well and I feel Deegs try’s too hard to win and makes amateur mistakes trying to force moves.

About all that other shit, I believe that if you were on the front line of developing something that everyone uses every day you don’t spend all day fucking around on a moto forum much less throwing your dick on the table to be measured…

Bring on the outdoors. See you at Pala!

See my post above about multitasking during work at the desk vs fucking around all day.  And with you being in Aliso Viejo, you are 1000% percent using some of my personal handcrafted work on a daily basis.  You don't have to believe me, but Theth asked me what industry I'm in and that was my honest answer.

Why does BDB always end up fighting for his life in every thread he creates?  😂

You said you were trying to start your business, and running a business can be a bloody war buddy.  Running your own business is going to be tough for you if you consider this fighting for one's life. 

Take note - You call it "fighting for his life"?!?!?   I call it herding the ducks....

All of you use technology every day that I had a role in designing, deploying, and commissioning...    

You were one of many in this thread who mentioned AI as it's been shit on many times here.  I get it, I don't like it either but unfortunately it's here to stay.  So my point was you can either join it and figure out how to benefit from it or fight it and be left out, because it's opening new doors as others are quickly being shut.  If you say Maverick's responses to my post are human, meaning normal moderator behavior without any childish jabs or call outs, then okay then we can disagree, but I suggest you go back and read it again without any bias.

Live life however you please but I feel like taking an 8th of mushrooms and watching either a Hawaiian lizard documentary or the 2007 outdoors would do wonders for your amygdala

I'm right there with you, and you sound like me in my younger daze.  Used to pick them in the cow pastures when I lived in Maui and I used to order them in shakes while living in Bali.  My love for them started in my youth in Santa Barbara. Big fan of psilocybin, just not much time for it anymore.

Looking forward to both classes this year for outdoors with the injection of Deegan in the 450’s. The 250’s will be intriguing to see who stays the most consistent. There will be a ton of moto winners.

You must get so sore from patting yourself on the back repeatedly.

What from the last exchange would make you think one would pat himself on the back?  I was asked what industry I was in, I responded, someone called bullshit, and I responded with the facts again.  You could call me a liar from that exchange if you choose not to believe me, but I see no reason why someone would want to pat themselves on the back for that.  If I ever did, I wouldn't get sore because I'm in good shape.  Headed out to the sand for some exercise now.

Hey Tiger,   With all your superiority you totally missed the meat of the second paragraph of my post and glossed over the first paragraph to throw your dick on the table again. When you figure both of them out and if you are who you think you are, today may be the day you learn something new.

Your first paragraph was great, it's the purpose of this thread - bench racing and discussing possible outcomes of the outdoor season.  And you might just be right in your prediction, but we won't know until they go racing.  Nothing wrong with that and nothing to be glanced over.

As for your second paragraph - if I read your post right it appeared you were calling bullshit on me as if I couldn't have possibly designed/built/commissioned something that you use every day.  It's fact, but you don't have to believe me as I really don't care if you believe me or not.  Is that your definition of dick measuring?  If it is that's fine, just curious what your definition of dick measuring is.

Dick measuring is an idiom of a status thing for ego maniacs.  

You still don’t get it and solidifies my beliefs. Sure, you were part of something and maybe ended up in a good spot, but anyone that is “The Guy” of something significant is not debating with strangers on forums all day.

You know there are a lot of people who have connections and friends of these riders or actually get to hang out with them on occasion?  I knew about it day one but respect their privacy until it gets to the point where everyone around town is talking about it, so now it's in the open in my circle.  Feel free to press your local media guy for an update, or you can tell ML or Lewis to PM me and I can tell them exactly what happened if they don't already know.  Most likely they do know, but just aren't talking about it.

How's your foot tasting in your mouth now that you've seen Jett's interview on the broadcast?  

What about it? 

You said you knew something but didn't say anything. It wasn't about you making shit up. I never said you did. It was about you not stating what you know. 

The I know something but won't say posts are lame. That's what it was about.

I knew he was back on the bike before it came out. I didn't say anything like "I know something about his condition and it should be announced soon." I just kept it to myself.
