Look at the Dust


Screw the January start to the comeback, I started writing this first return post on the 3rd of December and it will probably be broken into a few parts so some of the more interweb hipster's won't give that tl;dr shit in the comments. For those more in line for a hip replacement that tl;dr is interweb for either "to long didn't read" or "to lazy didn't read" your choice, either fits.


So after a long absence of not writing about the state of our hobby and the "Car Show" scene I guess I'm back to regale you with stories of adventures, opinions of events, diatribes pointed at imbeciles and fools, profanity when its appropriate and of course the hunt for the ever elusive $25.00 Cheap Ass Trophy.


The same rules apply for comments and opposing opinions as long as its not laced with profanity and is totally about the subject matter I'll post it. I will only edit grammar and punctuation and not the content. This is so we won't think your an idiot, unless of course you are an idiot and then we all can watch you prove it.


If you have an event you want posted, send it elsewhere I'm not your fucking social secretary or a damn calendar. I will promote an upcoming event with a blip or two and if I attend it you will get an opinion. No politics unless it is about our Hobby. No religion unless it happens to be a story of our favorite pastors the Right Reverend Fudgewhistle and the Reverend Cat Crate.


Some new characters will most certainly be created and in all likelihood a few laid to rest or if I'm in the mood resurrected for a little waltz down memory lane. Some tongue in cheek, some bite your tongue and even more sticking out your tongue will all fall into place I'm sure.


So hang on kids it starts now.

Should I or Shouldn't I

It's been over a year since I wrote any type of drivel for this dusty old blog. I've been thinking that I've lost my touch and need to polish off the magic finger and restart this thing.


Things have changed in the car scene to the point I had no reason to blast all the little idiosyncrasies that our little way of life enjoys or dreads depending on your view point. The more they change the more they revert to their former selves and that may be reason enough for me to start up this buzz saw of a rag and chop down some egos.


As always I will endeavor to talk about the state of our hobby and what the recent elections mean for us. We will rip other organizations as we did in the past if they perform like morons and idiots as they have in the past. If your deserving praise you'll get it and of course if your deserving of a swift kick in the ass we can provide a verbal version of just that.


So for those that still stop here and hope for something new here it is for now.


I'M BACK AND THE ATTITUDE IS WORSE THAN EVER.


New postings will start in January so spread the word through out the land.

Lights Out

And even after a comeback there is no need to write.

Good-Bye

Well Now

 Two days, 2 shows, great iffy weather and a story.

Andover, was as always, a great show with some great cars and the weather started crappy but finished strong. There didn't seem to be any hanky panky in the classes or awards and the shit truck didn't show up midway through, for the douching of porta shitters. Well Now that was the frosting on the cake wasn't it.

Oxford was as usual packed with great weather to start and rain to close it out. A little trophy poaching was seen and people running the gate didn't like being over ruled and probably won't help next year. Well Now like we didn't see that coming. The thing I didn't see coming, is a certain worshiper of the almighty $25.00 Cheap Ass Trophy chose not compete by scratching out his number. He also realized that he could have great day without getting an award.

Gather round children for the story.

Seems the Reverend Cat Crate has pulled the wool over some people eyes and passed himself off as a judge at a car show earlier in the year. It probably would have been OK if the Reverend had of picked a car in the class that was actually deserving of the trophy. Picking a car, you at one point owned, for first place was wrong in the eyes of the participants, organizers and even God frowned. God doesn't play favorites and neither should he.Then we get the prayer cards and the name change and all is right with the world. I'm thinking not.

I feel bad that a defrocked man of the cloth has to stoop that low to raise his self esteem. I feel worse for the Organizers of the show that he screwed as it will be hard to get the respect back that was lost because of his antics. If your thinking I'm going say I feel for the Participants who didn't get what was rightfully theirs, I'll say this, "Y'all Motherfuckers need Jesus" it was, after all is said and done, a $25.00 Cheap Ass Trophy. But still it wasn't right.

If you would all rise and open your hymnals to page 73 so we may all sing.

Give me that old time religion
Give me that old time religion
Give me that old time religion
It's good enough for me.

OOPS

Yeah I know. Believe Me I know.

Sometimes you just need a little in incentive, other times not so much incentive as you do time.

We started out slow this season and just haven't had the enthusiasm this year as we have in the past. We missed Medomak and that threw us all off a bit but then we went to York and here it is July and its been a month since our last post.

York, PA. was a great time put on by the NSRA. Over 3,000 vehicles filled the town and its surroundings for the last day of May and first 2 days of June. Vendors, Entertainment, Good People, Fun Evenings and Close Friends made this weekend Terrific. Oh we took wrong turns and made some laughs on ourselves on the way down but that is what makes for a good time.

Before we came home we spent some time at Gettysburg. Being the 150th Anniversary of the Momentous Battle of the American Civil War it was awe inspiring and more. I can not really describe the feelings or sights of this area. I can say that you need to be there a see for yourself the magnitude of space manpower and history that is preserved for all to see.

Owl's Head was just plain crazy. Cars, Cars and more Cars. That was from the Museum as the new director pulled out more vehicles to actually drive in the 2 days that we were there than in the past 10 years says that things have changed at Owl's Head...for the better.

Nothing ever changes quickly around here except the amount of cheating, lying, trophy poaching little bitches that are now gaining another foothold on the hobby, but that is the norm not the unusual.
At Harrison I did what I normally did and put my placard on my seat so as not obtain or garner any votes away from a better vehicle. Minutes after walking away and visiting with some participants, I turn to see my placard in my windshield. Now I don't know if it was done as joke or by one of the organizers, to show his authority or perhaps it could be a reader of this rag, it doesn't really matter as you my friend are a Douche Bag.

You do not reach inside a persons vehicle without permission for any reason. Plain and simple. Beating you about the head and shoulders with a used condom would be to good for you. I will be kind and leave it at that but at the time of the incident your family heritage, your gender and whether you knew your father did come into question.

The season is about half done. hopefully I'll get something to write about regularly.
