DialledMike doesnt attract negative press. Just admiration for his sunglasses. Dont your kids also wear shades Mike?

My newest Oakleys (Spike Titanium) are (as the Inspiral Carpets once announced) Cool as ****. Though the Radars and Half-Jackets are more comfortable.

People should buy more Dialled Bikes stuff as I have an Oakley and Nike 6.0 habit to feed.

The boy got his first pair of ($10) shades from Walmart last month when we were on holiday. Oakley should start making kids sizes!

You know I should stop being such a tight-ass and buy just one pair of Oakleys for once.

Or you could just wait 'til someone on the classifieds has some for sale, express an interest, dick them around a bit and then decide not buy them. 🙂

..but surely then I would have virtually owned them, at least for a few minutes but without a cash outlay?

Following an earlier thread on Fruit- I found some ancient Japanese Art that was stunningly beautiful using Octopus. Who was the artist again? Katsushika Hokusai

Are Oakley Frogsins cool again yet? I have a rootbeer pair somewhere that were hardly ever worn.

Time to show that you really are impartial and fair?

Mwah ah ah ah ah

Like that is going to happen... I have read brant breaking the rules so so many times that I can't even be bother...
The only thing I shal say about neil/fruit is that he is not very brave, as he refused to do the lake jump. But on the other hand he did provide lots of stuff for the BBB so fair point to him.

Now I am going to read all the thread 😉

The octoporn link was started inadvertantly between CFH and me (when I was called sc-xc). Someone mentioned Howies 'jumping the shark'....this lead to me posting 'bumming the octopus'...which lead to CFH repeating it...

Next time a SSC thread was started, someone said they were bumming the octopus, then the octoporn started.

Not nearly as funny as Luke's rock story though

Wasn't it from the thread about Howies having jumped the shark, then someone mentioned "bummed the octopus", CFH found it amusing, pics were hunted down and posted, and octopron was born?

*Feels proud to have been there at the inception of something so great. *

IIRC, the shark jumper in question was Cotic, but I think it was before the Great Hack. Can't find a link!

Well so far we have not heard of him... It may be him it may not (plus my name is spell JUAN not JAUN four letters is not hard to manage is it) so lets wait what comes from him or the STW towers.
I do not know him on a personally and I dont really care what he is on the real life. I did not asked anyone to change is view about him or his products. However as I said he did put money on a family event, on the contrary or some other manufacturers... Doesn't make it more wrong or more right just somehting to add to all the bashers. There is probably plenty of people that can say the same about any other products.

I always though mrnutt add something to do about the octopron...

Could it be that they look like onions, will peel like an onion but when you actually cook with them they will taste like sh*t?

I think "bumming an octopus" was arrived at from "jumping the shark", via "raping a polar bear".
