Now about the turn signals ...


Ditch lights, bell, horn, seatbelt and turning signals. So why not turbocharge it while you're at it[:D]


I think he is still working on the prototype for the Basic Model of the new Adrianspeeder line of superpower lawn mowers. However, the turbo is an option in the deluxe model.

I hear that after the successful launch of his superpower lawn mower that he has plans for a superpower snow blower. Being down south I won't need one, but if he can make a few modifcations the farmers here might be able to use it as a manure spreader (something that Jim is pretty good at). [:D] [:D] [:D]

Hi Adrianspeeder [8D]

Remember these safety rules for SSLs (Super Speed Lawnmowers)
1. Never race a train
2. Never drink and moe
3. Always wear protective eqiupment
4. Use turn signals
5. Never pass on the right
5. Yield to garden hoses or other objects hiding in the grass
6. No pigpybacking trailors (LPTT Lawnmower Powered Trailor Train)
7. ALWAYS stop for Limited Clear's models (Hobo Joe as I call her)

Have a great day [:D]



Jim, do Lawn mowers even have turn signals?
You forgot another one-
8. Buckle Up!


Now HOW could I have forgotten that one. Yes Alex you are right, Adrian (if going faster than 5 mph) should buckle up. I am sure that if he comes across LC"s Hobo Joe he can unbuckle himself and give her a lift. (I'm not going to touch that one with a ten foot pole)

Now about the turn signals, if a lawn mower can have them just give him time and watch out. They just might blind you, or is that the ditch lights?

Oh I don't know, I've tried Kim Chi and liked it well enough. My buddy was married to a second generation Korean-American. Her Dad made the stuff and buried it in the back yard. It was good, but oh so hot. I must have gone through a gallon of water. They also made these hot little pickles that kind of fizzed in your mouth. You could actually see the carbonation rising to the top in the jar. They were great with a tuna fish sandwich.

I've had alligator steaks and yes, if it cooked wrong its like rubber. Its like calamari, cooked right and its tender and tasty, and like calamari (squid) , cook it wrong and its rubber and icky. It also has to be fresh, or it will come out rubber.

HEAD CHEESE IS THE WORST!!!!!!!!! AAAAARRRGGH!!!
Smells like the most unholy thing while being cooked down. Cant even look at it.
Just thinking about it makes me want to hug the porcellien, uurgh!

When I went on my NASCAR trip to the race in Homestead I tried alligator. It was like shoe leather. It was so tough and rubbery it was unreal. I have been told the restaurant did a poor job of cooking it or it wouldn't have been they way. I don't know because I have only tried it once so I don't have anything to compare it to.
