Avoid this van when it’s coming thru your neighborhood. I’m certain the driver was looking up at the tree tops, flags, tumbleweeds, clouds, smart phone wind forecast, and not paying attention to the road. :lol: :lol: :lol:

I'm afraid you're being staked out by the Slingshot Center for Recovering Windaholics Crisis Intervention Team, probably called out to bring you in by a family member/wife/significant other, or perhaps even a "friend" who wants all your gear. Most likely they'll take you down and incarcerate you against your will at the treatment center while you are deprogrammed, it will be hell for a month or two but in the long run it'll be the best thing. Whatever you do dont fight the tazer, it only makes it worse.

If you do see this van, you should run and hide under a rock, or an old windsurfer.

The driver is a little, shall we say, unbalanced.

Smile, back away slowly and never EVER turn your back on him.

Scary thoughts for this Halloween.

I made the mistake of telling Coach, more years ago than I care to remember,calling an Englishman Australian will piss him of. And visa versa. Coach remembered and got me with it on Lakawa. For which incidently I have not got him back yet.
I know Tighes hates the v dub to be called a minivan, it's a fuckitsnukin mobile. So some mutual teasing was going on.
But for the the record, along with the lovely Michele and if I remember rightly, though not quite as lovely, a good chunk of Chris Lock, I'm English.

spent formative years in sussex, very british accent. Kind of funny really, my brothers formative years where in the midlands, so he has that accent, my sisters, lancashire. Mum and Dad midlands. Tough to believe we're members of the same family when you hear us yakking.
Now I'm sussex/minnesotan, really weird.

And always received that way, the amount I tease everyone it's more than fair that people get me back.
To be honest there's been times the abuse coming my way has nearly made me fall off my chair laughing. I think Coach and Jim have got me the best so far, Randy has played the wickedest tricks on me, but I know lot's of people on here have been got by one of Randys pranks over the years.I don't think any of us have ever really managed the kind of retribution Randys due.mmmmmm?
