Did anyone else watch this movie(A Clockwork Orange, not The Muppet movie) in high school psychology class?
Funny (and true) story.
Back in the summer of 1978, between my Junor and Senior years of High School, I worked on a ranch that was way out in the boonies. An old 28K acre Spanish land grant. Part of my pay included an old house to live in. One Friday night I went into town and partied with friends, then I went home and went to bed. The next morning, I woke up and drove down the ranch road to get some breakfast.

About 2 miles down the ranch road I saw an old primer colored Studebaker coming up the road. As the car got closer, I saw the driver looked odd. He was covered in gray fur, had a big lump for a head, and had a huge bugle-shaped nose. I was looking at it, and it was looking at me as we went pass each other. I started freaking out, thinking that someone had slipped me acid the night before and that I was hallucinating.

When I went around the next corner, there was a movie crew set up in the middle of the road. I had drove right through the middle of their set. I remember some guy dressed up like a Canadian Mounty and other folk dressed up like critters and the director and cameraman looking like they wanted to kill me.

It was a scene from the first Muppet movie. Nobody bothered to tell any of the ranch hands that was going to be happening.

But now you're make think that the Clockwork Orange would have been more interesting...

Rules I guess

My dads had a handle made out of flexible copper pipe and two large hose clamps. I never put a handle on my mine but any day you open it you can smell coffee.

I've had mine for 21 years.
 
my 3 don't even come close to accepting such. turn it on and under the bed asap.
My ex's cat, who my lab was trained to taunt on command, loved the whole house vac would go to the closet door where the hose and wand was stored and cry to get it out and vacuum him. I almost liked that cat. he used to dive off the steps to ride my cgocolate lab. It was a riot to watch.

Mine is from 1983 and still works like a charm. I hit a guy in the head with it once, it worked perfectly, he no longer wanted into my car after that. It was the only Christmas present my horrible ex-wife got me that was useful. Genuine Made in America to last lifetime, unlike today's Chinese made crap.

They would have done a lot better had they been able to sign some better talent.

Swoll and Ferry are middle of the pack type guys and they placed about where you’d expect.

Not including the crash that took out half the pack!
Triumph will get better talent eventually.
Swoll won one race in his pro career. That is more than likely his last win . Ever! Swoll is a guy that can't make that step up to champion speed and consistency. Ferry is still a rookie and we will see what he becomes in the next 2 seasons. Personally, I want the 250 class to be a real pro class and a full series. No east coast /west coast ! With no pointing out of the class.
Futures is the feeder class. to 250s.
