Funny who you meet in your professional life
Dang I thought you were a whore, and you were going to tell us a funny story about a client with one leg shorter than the other and a forked penis who asked to be covered in Castrol motorcycle oil so he could ride your hills and valleys to his hearts content.
I suspect a lot of other KBers will be thinking the same......

>>Funny who you meet<<
I was only saying that to Mr Buell and Mr Bloor the other day. :-)
I says to Erik, 'Erik, stick with me and I'll make you famous son.' I says.

One who advises on technology to help large law firms make more money.
Strangely unfulfilling ;-)

When I worked at a doctors' practice, I anticipated some level of disapproval from them. You know, based on their seeing injured bikers in A&E and the like.
Instead, they all had a fascination for motorcycling. None of them rode, but they constantly asked about the bike and where I had ridden etc. One used to peek out the consult room window-while seeing a patient- to watch me ride by at the end of the shift.
Interesting, I've always been surprised by their attitudes.

Not famous, not name dropping - but - thats a hell of a trip and Im guessing that most of us will never get a chance (or be willing to take the risk) to have an adventure even 1/2 as exciting as that.
And its not slightly weird - There are tons of us.

I was going ask "" what the hell are you talking about""....
Then I figured you posted in the wrong thread....:shifty:

I wonder if they're still together. I expect a ride of that magnitude would be put a lot of pressure on a relationship.

The map that appears when you open that link...
Did anyone else see that map, the distances involved and instantly think "Gijoe1313 pootling down to the dairy"?:scratch: Or was it just me?

What you do in the privacy of your own home is your business. This thread is useless without pictures...

Yeah, it was only just the other day that I was thinking, "It's funny who you meet in your life!"
No-one.
Nup.
Can't think of anyone famous I've met, but I've met a few interesting people. Especially using public transport in Los Angeles a few weeks ago. Like the crazy drunk homeless guy who started pounding on the windows and doors of the bus when it stopped.
Or the evil looking guy with prison tats who got on the train at one stop.
Then there were the uninteresting people, like the two vacuous bints with posh accents who were on the train between Oxford and London, and who spent the whole trip (90 minutes) talking loudly about absolutely nothing at all, yet with such earnestness and self-importance that it almost sounded like it wasn't bollocks. (I managed to not slap Blonde Bint and refrained from telling her to "STFU!")
I didn't meet Pope Palpatine The Evil Santa in Rome.
I also didn't meet Liz at Buckingham Palace as it was raining so she wouldn't come out to play.
But! (however), I also didn't meet the Queen of Holland.
I did however, not meet Arnie when I was in the Sultanate of Kaliphornicatia.

I was hoping for something similar except with Motul oil... :shit:

Let me tell you, those people on the bus were probably thinking "Who is this fucking white guy on the bus? This is L.A. He must be insane." Didn't you notice, there were no other white people on the bus besides you? You took a bus AND a train in LA? You are one crazy mofo! :laugh:
