what's the worst advice you ever got, or...

I know this is going to sound like a paradox, but Putter is both the master of sexual harassment, and pretty harmless. His deal is to hump the leg of any new female who shows up here. They usually find him cute after they get over the initial fear.

 

"It's easier to beg for forgiveness than to ask for permission."

No. No, its not.

 

It'll only take a couple of pumps...

 

He kind of comes across as a potential sexual offender at first.

 

Oh, you've met my co-workers.

 

Or sexually offensive.

You've seen him in his manties haven't you? How much more history do you need than that?

 

Go Vintage bike racing, its cheap!

Best advice, probably the Old Man talking me into joining the Navy.

 

Apparently my post has been misconstrued due to my choice of terminology....

"Don't buy AN INVESTMENT/RENTAL PROPERTY with your sister."

It still sounds bad; thanks, dicks!

 

I gave some really bad advice once....

The other guitar player in my band (circa 1997) couldn't get his guitar to come out of the PA. He asked me if the cable was good, and just joking I said, "I don't know, lick it." He did, and got lit up. Apparently there was a grounding issue!

I still laugh thinking about that!

 

I'm not sure she ever fully understood that foreskin, Putter and the aspirin-white guy in his tighty whities are one and the same.

 

Don't join the BBS...it is a time suck!!!!

 

"We don't need a pre-nup."

Yeah.....right!

 

Feed a cold, starve syphilis.

You don't even have to brake there...

 

AFM race weekend at Riverside International Raceway, Riverside, California, circa 1978, one of my first times riding a proper 1025cc AMA Superbike:

Me: "Hey Steve, how fast can you get through Turn Two on a Superbike?"
Steve McLaughlin: "Wide open."
Me: "Really?"
Steve McLaughlin: "Yeah, no problem."

Went out in the next session, railed through Turn One and headed toward Turn Two but decided there was no way, rolled off the gas. Came in and found Wes Cooley for a second opinion.

Me: "Hey Wes, I asked McLaughlin and he told me I could get through Turn Two wide open but I looked at it and it didn't seem possible so I rolled off. Can you really get through there wide open?"
Cooley, shaking his head: "He told you that?! No, you can't get through there wide open, you'd end up in the grandstands!"

The end.

 

Best advice I got: "enjoy the journey, being there isn't half as much fun as getting there."
