  • Get your butt kicked at festiva madness!!

    As many of you guys know, I among many others am going to Festiva Madness#3 WooooHoooo!!!.....Anyhow my yf was looking at some things to do in that area because we(yf kids and myself) will be up there for a few days. We are making a mini vacation out of it. So I told her to look up the area and what's to do. Lot's of race museums, a zoo, and a butt kicking machine? LoL. She sent me these links to share with everybody. The first one is hilarious. Not only that, but there are 2 of these!!! Enjoy and I look forward to meeting everybody.


    And this is my 1000th post! Woot! I'm now a "senior member" wonder when I'll graduate?


    Here is the links. In the first one on pg. 53 is grave diggers shop and on pg. 54 is the butt kicking machines!!

    There are several museums, parks & such nearby... downtown Raleigh, Durham. I'll try to dig up some links. Asheville (Biltmore House) is more than 4 hrs west of Raleigh. Going east, there's the Outer Banks (again, about 4 hours away).

    Focustiva: Because I was told it was was impossible to fit a Focus bumper on a Festiva.

                    Hmmm, I'll think about it...

                    First turboing, now Raleigh...I fear you have some power over me that makes you able to convince me of things I wouldn't normally do. I hope you don't have any ugly single older sisters who are into Renaissance Faires...you'll probably force me to ride in your car too.

                            OK, two possible scenarios:

                            1. No way I'm coming! You will talk me into something.

                            2. I come to Festiva Madness; you bring your best-looking single sister; if we hit it off, you are then obligated as my brother-in-law to give me free wrenching for life. Mwahahahaha...
