It's okay, I stop and watch it when I see it on TV too.  =)

How do you do a forward flip anyway? Get it bounced onto the front wheels and bury the brakes? Or was this a less than planned thing?

I went to a monster jam one time just to say I did it.  The crowd was far more entertaining than the show, in a Jerry Springer sort of way.  Never going back, but I can't say I didn't enjoy it.  :lol:

Oh and I almost forgot....

I don't think it was planned.  Earlier the TMNT truck did an endo on that same jump.  Judicious application of the throttle and he rode it out.  Quite the spectacle.

So then, the Rotweiler truck hits that jump.  Starts to endo and keeps going.  Momentum carries him over and he stays on the throttle.  Wheels contact and he's going again on all fours.

Yeah I made the mistake of buying the cheap seats.  The crowd was, well, trash in that section.  Except for the serious MILF sitting a few seats over.... :O
Well, it wasn't an entire mistake cheaping out, because the extra $60 I would have spent on seats went to food instead:
Small soda, $5.25 (16 ounce fountain)
Bottles of water for the kids, $4 ea (2)
Daughter's mini cheese pizza $8
Son got a foot long hotdog, $5.75, and fries $4.25
I got a chili and cheese nacho, it was $8 and change.

Yeah, that's right, $40 bucks worth of food. :facepalm:

It is much more powerful to seek Truth for one's self.  Seeing and hearing that others seem to have found it can be a motivation.  With me, I was drawn because of much error and bad judgment on my part. Confronting one's own errors and bad judgment is a very life altering situation.  Confronting the errors and bad judgment of others is usually hypocrisy.

No, that was $40 spent on maybe $5 worth of food.

Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen.

My boy is heading that direction already.  No more kid's meals at resturants or fast food, he goes full scale.

His two favorite meals at home are taco salad and chicken salad, both of which he will eat two full adult bowls.

I can't think of a font that represents the radio guy's voice well enough.  Do any fonts have mullets? =D
