Juggling, Tattoos, and Pinstriping. I think I'll have to try and make this one
I can juggle, I have tattoos, and I can almost pinstripe.

Sonny, You mean that ain't Si??? Hahahahahaha! How 'bout the late great Ray Charles or Otis Redding (Sitting On The Dock of the Bay)in OJ's place. At least Ray Charles was born here in Albany and Otis Redding was born in Dawson,Ga.(just 20 miles from here). Click here to enjoy the song: Otis Redding, Sittin' on the dock of the bay Just a suggestion from the peanut gallery! Judy

I like your idea Judy. Ray and Otis both have Georgia roots, but what about the hardest working man in show business, Mr. Dynamite, Mr. PleasePlease, the Star of the Show, Macon's own JAMES BROWN (insert crashing cymbals, funky horn section and floor split here)
I wouldn't mind putting Jimi Hendrix in there too. Maybe we should take a vote - Ray, Otis, James or Jimi ?????

Sonny, it is difficult for me to choose between Ray and Otis. Their styles are completey different, but I loved them both. But, the meet being in Georgia, I'll have to vote for Ray Charles because his rendition of Georgia CANNOT be beat.

Dang, Sonny. You really DID it, huh? Yer Comitted! ... Gettin' ME to another meet (You SAID you'd do it! GOOD for you!!). Damnation & Bless Your Heart. too.
I actually 'came up' in the world with a newer-ish car a week ago. (The Gal's got better Wheels!) And isn't it appropriate, that now, I don't need to drive? *hoots* The Bigger Spirit above takes care of us. Blessings Abound!!!
Now, about the meet: I'll email you directly, Sonny. And ALL Y'all know... I'll be able to add some "Mason/Dixon Gumption" to this meet...not to mention Sheila's "English to Southern" dictionary. *LUV IT*
And Youze Guys can BET on it. *Yanks need NOT fear...*
*S* Yes. I sit on the fence. Damn pickets... Owwies.
Always and anything I can do. I'm yours for Dixie '06, Sonny.
Luv & Hugs

Suelynn, Grab Donna and y'all come on down for a last hurrah before your Canadian winter sets in. With Karyn and Karen, this might get dangerous.
Any votes for the Godfather of Soul?

Chris, we'll make room for you. Rapid, we love dervishes - just don't fly thru any construction zones. Amy, ride up with Roland and save on the gas. Bill, you and Jane come on down - Dixieheads are good folks - we're even nice to Si and OP. Greg, sounds like you'll fit right in. Don, "Georgia" was actually a Hoagy Carmichael song (Ray just did it better)

I want to be there too! I love the poster you got for it. Alfred E. is my hero!
Hey Joe Pribish, I want one of those things! I've been wanting to get a truck like that. Not to make "instant" signs per se, but to have all my tools with me when I do work a sign job somewhere. I hate getting there and leave something behind! Got to run back and get it. This way I got my "shop" with me!
And of course, the "bill-board" value comes in handy! I don't think I want to paint it like you got it, I was thinking more of putting some artwork and flames on it. What do you think of these trucks tricked out with flames across the hood and side, and some "spinners" on the wheels?
Get a good power supply set up in there for your power tools and air compressor.
I see you have an awning on the side, so I am guessing you are at car shows too?
