HACKETT - BLACK LEATHER RACING

NOW THOSE SHOTS ARE WHAT I'VE BEEN VISUALIZING
A GS RACE TO LOOK LIKE: FAST, DANGEROUS, AND STYLISH!
The guy in the full face is legendary speedboarder John Rogers
who actully took 7th place with a time of 27.79
Greg, hope you can make a full recovery soon. Probably is a slight
tear or just a really bad bone bruise. The "road rash" will heal quicker
with an application of "NewSkin".
Please email me photos of the top ten if you can; I'm trying to document the series for later...
Thanks man,
HACKETT - BLACK LEATHER RACING

John O'Shei (making the gnar face) got 1st.
next was Maysey (s#@!e kneee caps) who got 2nd
Kosik (bike helmet) 3rd
can't remember the full faced leather guys name but I think he was in the top ten.
The knee is starting to feel better, my doctor thinks it is a "slight" miniscus tear or inner MCL tear or both. I go for an MRI next week for the reality check. The scab on my back is the thing that is giving me the most trouble. Can't sleep real well yet. It looks like a third degree burn. My swell bow when down but my whole fore arm is purple and tender.
Can't wait to skate again.
I'll post more pics when I get some more time.

Since I could not race, I thought I would be productive. Check out the difference in styles. The shots look better bigger but you get the idea. I'll post more pics later.

Hey Jimmy!
I didn't make that deck you tried- I got it from Olson
who can get you one...I have other sick slalom decks that you
might be interested in though...
Sorry, every month we set a different course on the same road by
a "Guest" course setter. Next month's race will be set by none
other than the "BROWN BOMBER" Richy Carrasco- 2004 TS SLALOM CHAMPION!
Expect his course to be FUN, FAST and GNAR! Probably a lot more cones and turns
than last course...it will be KILLER!!
GO BROWN BOMBER!!!

Hack, can I send you some dinero for the deck you let me sample? I could get comfortable on a slalom board like that. Oh yah, can you keep the course next month similar to the one last weekend.

Damn. I thought the rain last week was a case of bad timing/ bad luck for me, as I was hoping to make Hackett's race and had four days off. Found out today that it's been like that for weeks...... I'd sacrifice a virgin for you guys but I don't know any
BTW, congrats to John "order & chaos" O'Shei for his big win. The bastard did sit in my loft last month and claim he would win the thing, but he probably says that at every race.
Think it will stop by March??

No offense Olson but what happened to that great new BLR ad?
Hackett, it sounds like the Outlaw Race this weekend was another barn burner.
Dave G: I was thinking that "model" actually had the offset Indy going on ...doesn't the one on the left look a little higher than the one on the right?

a class is doing stories with morals, and each child has to come up with said story...
little jane stands up, "my uncle john's hen laid 12 eggs but non of them hatched."
"very good says teacher, and the moral is"...
"don't count your chickens until they've hatched" says janey.
next up andrew. "my dad planted 12 apple trees, but the wind blew and they all fell down."
whats the moral? "its an ill wind that blows no good" says andrew.
then sam stands up. "my uncle billy was in the marines and one day the helicopter he was flying in was hit with a missile, everyone was killed but uncle billy. as the chopper fell burning to the ground he grabbed a machine gun, a bottle of whisky, a knife and a parachute and jumped out."
"as he's floating down he's wondering what to do so he drinks the whisky, and just as he's finished the bottle he sees a hundered enemy soldiers waiting on the ground for him. so he throws the empty bottle and that kills one, he then gets his gun and kills another 50 but then his bullets run out, so he grabs his knife cuts himself out the parachute and then stabs another 29 but then the blade snaps. luckily the empty bottle was by his foot so he smashes it and uses the broken end to kill another 15 but then the bottle gets stuck in a skull and he can't pull it out. as theres only 5 left he figures what the heck and strangles them."
"ok "said the teacher, "thats a rather unusual story and i can't quite see the moral?"
"its obvious innit" says billy, "don't mess with uncle billy when he's had a drink coz he's a violent f@cker!"

A farmer finds out his daughter is pregnant. In a rage he jumps in his pick up truck and drives to the next farm. He goes up and bangs on the front door like a man possessed.
Little Johnny answers the door.
"Where's that big brother Ben of yours?" demands the farmer.
"Well," says Johnny, "he and ma and pa went into town for a while."
"Do you know anything about your brother Ben getting my little girl pregnant?"
"Well," Johnny says, "I know Pa gets $50 for that big hog and $100 for the bull, but I don't know how much he gets for Ben."

Golds tein and Silverstein are sitting on the beach at West Palm. Silverstein says, "so, when did you retire?"
Goldstein replies, "when a fire destroyed my store, I took the insurance money and decided to call it quits. What about you?"
Silverstein says, "when a hurricane wiped me out, I took it as a sign and wanted to enjoy my golden years."
Goldstein thinks for a moment and then asks, "how do you start a hurricane?"

Thanks for the killer race Hackett & LCB. I aim to be as bonkers as y'all after the next couple of those. O'Shei you're a madman. Damn that was fun.

This farmer has about 200 hens, but no rooster and he wants chicks. So, he goes down the road to the next farmer and asks if he has a rooster which he would sell. The other farmer says, "Yeah, I've got this great rooster named Chuck. He'll service every chicken you got, no problem." Well, Chuck the rooster costs alot of money, but the farmer decides he'd be worth it.
So, he buys Chuck. The farmer takes Chuck home and sets him down in the barnyard, first, giving the rooster a pep talk, "Chuck, I want you to pace yourself now. You've got a lot of chickens to service here, and you cost me a lot of money. Consequently, I'll need you to do a good job. So, take your time and have some fun," the farmer said, with a chuckle.
Chuck seemed to understand, so the farmer points toward the hen house, and Chuck took off like a shot. - WHAM! - Chuck nails every hen in the hen house - three or four times, and the farmer is really shocked. After that the farmer hears a commotion in the duck pen, sure enough, Chuck is in there. Later, the farmer sees Chuck after a flock of geese, down by the lake.
Once again, - WHAM! - He gets all the geese.
By sunset he sees Chuck out in the fields chasing quail and pheasants. The farmer is distraught-worried that his expensive rooster won't even last 24 hours.
Sure enough, the farmer goes to bed and wakes up the next day to find Chuck dead as a doorknob - stone cold in the middle of the yard.
Buzzards are circling overhead. The farmer, saddened by the loss of such a colorful and expensive animal, shakes his head and says, "Oh Chuck, I told you to pace yourself. I tried to get you to slow down, now look what you've done to yourself."
Chuck opens one eye, nods toward the buzzards circling in the sky and says, "Shhhh, they're getting closer..."
