I would guess no wet t shirt contest and Rondy. That would hurt Probably it's not good to type what I think sometimes. I imagine a wet t-shirt contest during Rondy might require safety glasses - just sayin - ?! 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The end of Rondy starts the Ididarod [spell check does not like that] You might want to talk with Tigerman (Gary) he hangs out over in the RTM thread. I think he works on organs and perhaps pianos. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vasubandu Posted February 1, 2018 Share Posted February 1, 2018 @DizRotus I don't think he meant Iditarod. It was a spacing issue: I did a rod. I have never done a rod myself, but I hear that some people do, and, as they say, there's nothing wrong with that. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WillyBob Posted February 1, 2018 Share Posted February 1, 2018 when I was up there, '82 or '83, Spenard was where the hookers and bikers lived. my kinda folks I had fun My buddy's sis and bro-in-law lived in Wasilla 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
akdave Posted February 2, 2018 Share Posted February 2, 2018 Spenard hasn't changed much sadly. Wasilla however, is a completely different place since '82-'83. The whole valley has a population of roughly 100,000 people now. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would love to go there some day. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WillyBob Posted February 2, 2018 Share Posted February 2, 2018 The woodchuck saw his shadow ... if that means 6 more weeks of this weather, I'm all for it. Been 70 - 80 almost all "winter'. I've been complaining to the wife, for some time, about the invasive/intrusive nature of technology today.... ...she will prolly think I've gone off my rocker when she starts seeing tube amps instead of SS.

Your weather sounds wonderful right now to me. Wednesday is was 52, this morning we had a -12 windchill I hope winter is only 6 more weeks. Of course, Phil is only 39% correct. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
