Forty years ago we sang that marching song in Boot Camp, it was:

"I wanna be an Airborne Ranger,
I wanna live a life of danger,
I wanna go to Viet-nam,
I wanna kill some Viet Cong."

I wonder what they sing nowadays?

Embarassingly enough, and I think i have shared this here before, I found myself singing Celine Dion's version of "I drove all night" after one particularly long and grueling endurance stint at Texas World.

The chorus was perfectly timed with the shift points on teh main straight and i sang like any exhausted, dehydrated, delirious guy would.

I drove all niiiigghh, shift, Iiiigghht, shift, to get to you, shift, is that alright, down shift, downshift, downshift...

And then you shared, and it was stuck in mine, but I cant remember what it was either.

Sadly, my song is always "there she was justa walking down the street, singing do wa diddy diddy dum diddy do..."

Randomly it will pop into my head and off i go, sometimes I even dance a lil jig...yes, while Im riding, or sitting at a stop light.

At which point all your male riding partners/witnesses start humming Eric Clapton, "I just love to watch her strut"

I sent off an e-mail to chatterbox about a group buy... I'll let ya know what they say...


and Rae.... you dance around so much in the seat, I'd think you were listening to rave music

Perhaps "Smack That" would be more appropriate for Ebbs.

Can't wait to hear on the Chatterbox deal. I will get two, one for me and one for whomever my victim, er um, wingman is that day...

I had one about 8 years ago. The voice activation would trigger all the time from wind noise. If you guys go with this system, get the $7 little chin curtain and save yourself a lot of grief.

Or maybe they're better now...

no... Rae's guy would probably take issue with that.

Rae has a guy?

I am Jack's inflamed sense of rejection.
