And now it looks like this:
Hrrrrrrm. Why does it look like the sling is parked on bathroom tile? I have a feeling that you may have pranked us. May just have to call the Bu11 dude himself and get to the bottom of this. EjFord - can you offer wise counsel?

Defender of truth, justice, and the American way, and very suspicious of those who take overhead photos of toy slingshots on their bathroom floor then post them on a public forum.
Huh. A little more tricked out than I remember.
But, the only sling I know with speaker pods in the front fenders. And, he has had the flag for a long time. Flag pole is a car radio antenna, as I recall. The pic is legit.
Bu11sh1t man has been frisky. Does it now fly?
Told the twin - she was flattered - says to meet her at the Planet Fitness next to the tootsie roll bowl.
Keep me posted on runs!
Hrmmm. This could get out of hand silly really fast. Let's continue this in person, not on this forum...
It seems like your ride ended up in the hands of Bu11sh1t . Trust me, it is in very good hands. It now has a matching trailer. And, is completely tricked out. Dude is the exact opposite of his forum handle.
Next runs, trust me, you will be informed. We should also hook up for some wine.
RJ!
Don't let folks here scare you. Tom, V-dude and Bear-dude are all straight up good people. They would definitely have waved. Off the top of my head, there is also A-Team SS who also would have waved. Nice folks all of 'em.
I'm gonna send you a PM requesting contact info. I will return with mine, and that will get you on the 1st post of this thread. That way, either by forum or phone call, you will know about crew events.
Welcome to the family!
*blows dust off Slingshot forum account*
ethermion! Long time no see! That said, I sold the Viper 2 weeks ago and bought a bike last week - missing a wheel compared to you guys, and I've still gotta learn to ride it (got my motorcycle license 10 years ago... memory is a bit fuzzy and insurance deductible is a bit high), but let me tag along on a run this spring!
Yupper. Think about you from time to time.
Got your M2 10 years ago? Really? Virginia gives out licenses to 12 year olds?
When the big dogs come out of hibernation and plan a run, trust that you will be kept current. Long time no see is a crime, and you are still one of us. Miss you.
Tell your cuter sister that I said "hey babe", and that I am working out. I can now bench 80 pounds.
Dunno 'bout where all-y'all are, but spring peepers woke me today. Maybe riding season is back. Last year was a disaster for me. Too hot, too cold, too wet, too busy at work. Pretty sure my engine has not turned over since maybe September last year. I want to ride, and I seriously miss my friends!
Hopefully, everyone is considering a Clarksville run. Great opportunity to see ME.
We won't be able to make it to the Brewer's Event...but we should be there for the welcome dinner!!!
Oooh, yeah. Been to long since you have seen my sorry arse and beautiful bride.
There are a bunch of all-y'all down there, and I don't have contact with all of them. Are you actively, energetically, electrified, James Brown get down, get on the good foot, take 'em to the bridge, stirring up participants? Or, do I need to darken your doorstep and show you how to get things done?
Best to missus V. Can't ever get enough of good people.
The big E and bride will arrive for the welcome dinner. No Brewers for us.
You and your lovely bride are welcome at our humble house any time my friend!!!!!
Hrrrm. Am I welcome without my lovely bride in tow? A bit long for her tastes. Or, maybe post on 4 wheels instead of 3?
There are things a-foot for something in northern Virginia this fall. Keep your radio tuned to this channel...
Boo, hiss. Maybe I need to come visit you. Not that close, yet not that far. Spring is coming!
Ross received an unexpected calendar from you a few days ago in the middle of the Mediterranean Sea!! Thank you so much! I have to find a place in the shop to hang it up and I will post a pic or two! I am grateful for you thinking of me!!
What's up Rocky! Did you get the email pic from Jdin ? That was for you, and only you. Your friends and I miss you terribly.
Courtesy of Jdin , I got the new calendar. Ahem, I am on the back cover twice. 2nd year in a row that I made the calendar. Slingshot playboy I am.
Anyway, enough about me.
Cripes sakes. Looks like 1/2 the calendar is this crew. Go team! Wrecking Crew get's 'er done!
Huh. I may not be rich with cash, but I am rich with friends. I know I am not worthy, but I'm digging it. Best of everything to all-y'all.
ethermion it is good to have you back. I see your Stay Puff alter ego made the new Slingshot Calendar. Best start think about Uncorked 2019 it will be here before you know it.
Be safe my friend
Ahem, that would be Stay Puft. Be mindful that I could not see and women and children pretty much ran away from me.
Forgot about the calendar. Need to get out the plastic. Last year was a huge hit for me. Gave 'em to my kids who said "that's my daddy!".
Uncorked 2019, I will be there before YOU know it. Never missed a MACAWS swarm, and have (hopefully) never disappointed. When I post, it is a party. Expect the unexpected.
Hugs and kiss to your missus.
Who are you again ?
Excellent. Another eye to poke in the new year.
And, be mindful I know where you live. And, be mindful that I know how your mother addresses you...
Been crazy times. Been a lousy year for slinging. Really lousy. I'm probably running gas I pumped in March. And, I am pretty sure I need a 2nd replacement on my %%&&*^**( angle drive.
Been busier than I can handle at work. Wish it paid accordingly...
Been spending time in Florida to tend to Mom and Dad. Dad is giving us a scare. Rotating visits with my siblings. Getting old is undesirable. Observing that in person is also undesirable. Internalizing that one day it will be my turn, messes with my head.
Andy Hatch . Seriously dude, I kinda sorta miss you too. Kinda sorta. Will poke you in the eye in the new year. I'll call to remind... And, lovely wife is asking about you. She is fond of you, for reasons I cannot explain. Women can be mysterious.
EjFord . Dude! Only Christmas card I have so far this year. Proudly displayed on my fireplace mantle. Happiness! You rock!
NNEVES57 , you have my phone #. Call me sometime. A serious crime we have not done a ride together. 20 minutes away if you are driving, 10 minutes away if I am driving. Let us atone for our crime.
MACAWS , call me sometime. I promise to answer this time. Let's setup an out of band encounter.
lrobbi , you need to call me dude. We are not done with my "project", but I need to get a progress update from you to move forward. Hugs, kisses, and sangria to your bride.
I'm back.
Did anyone miss me?
@DocG is a prolly maybe kinda sorta. Plan to visit him next weekend, so I can fix that. I seriously doubt he has other plan. I'm the only friend he has in the world, and tends to follow me like a puppy dog.
Getting people to post is one thing, getting them to update their participation status is a whole different story. Last time I spent 3x the effort trying to get people the update their status than to get commitments to post. As we get closer, I'll give you a tally of who has a hotel room. I'm staying at your house, so it is hotel bookings +1.
Still at it.
