I'll pass this challenge to Schelly... happy to back him up with some 70s/80s screaming' organ. ;)

He's more of an accomplished musician than I am... He actually produced an album.
...and the album cover was scary!

Oh, by the way, Happy 2nd Birthday to 996outpost.com!! You may only be a toddler, but you're off to a great start! 2020 should be a good year for this forum - I expect it to get stronger and more popular as the word gets out about our little corner of the internet. Thanks to Schnelly for making it happen and keeping us going, and to all the rest of you miscreants for keeping it interesting!

Not a bad view out of our room. We are just here for a quick getaway, but CES2020 opens tomorrow. We don't fly out til tomorrow night, so I suppose I could go check it out. But, I am not sure that I'd know what I'm looking at since I'm not in the industry.

I'm down the street sitting in the Venetian right now. Hey, buddy! Too bad I didn't know you were here, we could have had a beer or something.

I thought about reaching out to you, but it's just me and the wife for a quick 3 days of alone time. So I was warned in advance not to plan anything like that. Next trip out should be a guys' trip, so definitely grab a beer then if it works for you.

Was reading an article yesterday about people up in arms about one of the keynote speaker (politics go elsewhere!) And they mentioned that some company is bringing a "multitasking sex bed". You can go and report on exactly WTF that is supposed to be.


P.S. it's not Pink Sock bad, but I don't suggest googling that quoted phrase...

I understand - not offended at all. But I am going to expect you to come to RennRun next time we have it :mrgreen:

Hot sauce

Post by 32wildbilly » Wed Jan 08, 2020 4:51 pm

I think there are a few here that are hot sauce fanatics and I got one for Christmas that is pretty darn good. It's not "Insanity Devil Spit Fire Breath Atomic Death Burn Ya' Azz Off" hot but a bit of heat with a crap load of flavor.

"Truff
White Truffle Infused Hot Sauce"

Not cheap but really good flavor.

If you have never watched this it is worth it. It starts getting funny around 14:00 and quickly picks up after that. I think this guy is a dick and that makes it even funnier.

Never gonna make you cry...

I took my son's blue '06 Cayenne S in to the local dealer for 2 recalls (fuel pump flange and transmission bushing) this morning
Got a base model Macan as a loaner. It had a whopping 630 miles on it when they handed over the keys. Idiots. I'll try not to pull a Lil' Dumbass on it.
