I live in the south, but go up north for some vacation time sometimes. I like to go skiiing...even though i suck and basketball season is fun too.

funny how us northerners go south to get away from the cold & snow..and all the southerners come up north to play in it!! :crazy:

no thanks...just gimme a nice white christmas, then let it all just go away again so I can get back to ridin...

best activity during the winter is sleep. hell by the time you get up, half the day is already over, daylight wise, and it gets dark at like 4pm!!!

I'm in the south, but we have no mountains, it's flat as hell. . the wind is brutal. So, I drink lots of beer, play EA Sports games, watch football, butcher my guitar from time to time, and sometimes go cycling since I hate riding when it's hot.

Other than that I go skiing in Colorado or New Mexico. I went on the east coast once and that was enough. . I don't know how you guys do it. :crazy:

If he is under the limestone benchmark than that is the south...

Anything below the mason dixon is south. Everwhere else is Canada.

Ooohhh, you're evil! :lol: So you don't get any bad weather at all? :skep:

Actually, since hurricane season just ended, we are moving into our "dry" season. We don't get a lot of rain, we have to mow the yard about once per month, but the wind will pick up. Most winter days are sweats and jackets in the am and shorts and sleeves by mid afternoon. We will get about 2 weeks where I will get to whine about the cold but mostly, Just another day in Paradise.

Oklahoma is still below it, although at the time we were Indian Territory, not a state.

Yes yes I have heard the story of how the white man came along and booted feather wearing natives out...

Vettes arnt really anything special anymore. Any working person can afford them. And if this guy had so much money why would he own a Vette. I would a least get something with some taste and class.

I do think he sucks his own dick thou. He probably had the surgery and everything.

And if he could read, tread says for you ****ers that live in the south to keep your face shut.

Your immaturity really shows :thumbs:

So, when I go fishing I think that trolling also works the best.

What if I puke on the dog. Whe are we snowmobiling?

No - puke in the porclein or in a sink with a disposal.

I say we head up to McKinley. They rent them cheap up there. I went there last year and they have awesome trails - you could ride for a week and never get sick of it. Most of the trails were very well groomed and then the back 40 was a little rough so we stayed off those.

I kinda like standing on the beach, and surf-fishing, that way you can watch your crab traps near the pier at the same time.

You'd be amazed at the things that happened here.

The Osage at one time was the richest tribe on Earth. . in the early 1920s and late teens, every member was worth over $1,000,000. Essentially the gov't gave them alotments of land and as it turns out, there was oil, a shyt ton of it. They were buying grand pianos and cars to use as flower gardens, etc. So, the gov't stepped in and said if you are 100% indian, you are not competent enough to have that money. However, if you were less than full blood then you were competent. . but, you weren't entitled to all the money.

I'm sure you've heard about the Land Run, too, in 1889. White man takes that land and gives it away for free. Boomer Sooner. lol

I've got Kiowa, Cheerokee, and Choctaw in my family as do most people who've been here for generations.

CJD is has some native american in her as well, but what tribe im not 100% sure..sioux maybe ?? but anywho, she's all about this subject as well. they've got some local big scale pow-wows around here that go on during the winter months, and its really quite interesting for those of us on the outside looking in on their culture.

hey, there's an idea for this offseason... good point !!

Pigface1 · Nov 11, 2004

That's pretty cool. . For anyone that's interested in history, by all means they should see at least one pow wow. The intricacies in the clothing are enough to blow your mind. We have the Red Earth festival out here every year, it's pretty cool. Native to Oklahoma are only the Kiowa and plains Apache, if I remember correctly. The rest ended up here after the Cherokee came during the Trail of Tears.

There's a Cowboy Hall of Fame here, or whatever the hell PC name they call it these days. They've got everything from Sitting Bull's peace pipe, to the Trail of Tears statue. . pretty cool.

Pigface1 · Nov 11, 2004

Anyway, didn't mean to hijack your thread Twisty. . lol

It's too cold to do anything outside here in the winter, so my winter consists of a lot of chicken wings and beer and sports bars.

Good morning Twisty! LOL :seeya:
Well dont go bashing the Vettes, I still love em regardless.
However if someone should be tooting their own horn it should be one that owns a Pontiac 6000 with like 240,000 miles on it and still running. LOL Now thats one sweet ride! :hug:

It's got 221K on it and it is a sweet ride!! It ate that Mazda 6, last month! :lol: Don't even touch the 6000....any moron can see that a 6000 is more powerfull than a small 6.... come on do the math!!!! :lol:
