Gas powered? That means it'll probably be about as irritating as
the average leaf blower. The good thing is it'll be a stationary
target, and if you use a smaller caiber rifle, they'll never even hear
your shot.

Now, come on!!! That has got to be a spoof. I'm sure most anybody
could find a better place to sink $1500.

Only $279.
There's a group of dirtbikers I know who would really enjoy this toy and its
product after riding while we camp away from civilization in the Sawtooth
Mountains. Of course, they'd probably want to put a hot pipe on it and run
race gas.

I saw the samething in green offered at Cabella's store in PA. That's
a lot of $$ for a margarita... :-)

These are real and not just a one-off ! Boat and camping stores carry them.

I've seen them offered in several places over the last few years. I have
absolutely no need for one and can't think of any friends who would need or
even want one, but I know somebody will buy them, if only to have something
that none of their friends have.

I have JOAT's feelings about them myself.

Oops, sorry about that. It's the "cycleblender" option that's $1495

Anyone who has ever been to a pro football or major college tailgate
party has seen these for the last couple of years.

Maybe that's why I've never heard of them. I'd definitely not waste my
time in either of those activities.

JOAT had the right idea.

Nothing like a belly full of cheap tequila, the smell of over over-
imbibed, puking drunks and then adding some exhaust fumes to the
cigarette smoke...are WE having FIUNH yets???

And what exactly do you find so distasteful that you would "not waste
my time in either of those activities"?

That is a statement that could only be made by someone wha has never
been to one. Most that I have been to are family oriented and
multi-generational. Many times there isn't any alchohol, and often the
only difference between a tailgate party and your backyard picnic is
that you're not in your back yard.


Seesh!

Dunno Tom's reasoning, but for me football games're waaay too
borig. Someone once figured out there's only about 7 minutes of actual
action in the average football game. The rest of the time is spend
lining up, dancing in the end zone after a touchdown (as if they're the
only one that's ever done that), arguing with the ref, and so on. I'm
not about to pay bucks to watch some guy who gets paid millions to do al
that. When I watch football I want to watch something like Australian
rules football.

Precisely my reasoning. Might go to the tailgate party if I didn't
have to sit through the game. Might could be forced to sit through the
game if I could bring a good book to keep myself occupied.

JOAT, surely we are not the only two males in these United States who
don't see any attraction in American Football.

Used to watch Australian Rules Football when I could get Cable TV.
Never did figure out what the Rule was.

Can't be. I figure a lot of 'em just won't admit it.

Near as I was ever able to understand the main rule was no breaking
bones on purpose.

Oh yeah, good catch. I missed that one. That Harley market has more than a
few conspicuous consumption types.

Make it three. My wife wouldn't miss it though.

For me, I just prefer not to be a spectator.

Playing football can be fun.
Watching it?!? nah.

As for me, I agree with Hemingway's comment: "The only sports are motor racing
and bullfighting - everything else is just exersize."

Yes I do...
