So it has been over four months since I have posted. It's not like I haven't been busy. I have been home and almost finished school. Home was fun but way too short a visit. I have 2 days of Late Model left. then 6 weeks of Early Model. Yea!

I have a new job. I will be test riding the '09 Victory Motorcycle line. Cool Beans! However, once it is over I can go home to Maine. Sweet, sweet home Maine. How I miss thee.

If you actually read this, please leave a comment. even if it is just Hello. I need to know if anyone is still reaking this. If so I will start blogging more often. Thanks for coming back.

I would like to say that life has been so exiting I haven't had time to post. But that would be lying. I really haven't done much of anything. I haven't posted because there hasn't been much going on worth talking about.

I did lose my 4.0. Suspension 1 kicked my ass. It wasn't that I didn't understand the class. I did. I just fell behind on a few projects and never recovered. There were 12 projects to do in 4 days. Let's just say I didn't do them all.

I am in Advanced Electrical now. Doing O.K. I think I am starting to get a slight idea of what I am doing. I haven't shocked myself yet! Give me time...

Glenn came out for a visit. Spent a day crusin' Arizona. Saw some desert. Saw more desert in one day than the whole last year I have been here. I really don't get out much. I have been to two shows since I have been here and I got free tickets to one of them. I think I have spent two days out of the valley in the time we got to AZ. I am ready to come home. I miss Maine terribly.

I graduate on September 21st. I would normally be coming on home, but there has been a change in plans. Beth needs to stay out here until at least February. So the plan is I am going to take October off and come home. I hope to get my bike running and ride it back out here. Then Beth and I will be home in the spring. Lord have mercy...

The title says it all. Not much going on to talk about. I just squeaked by Harley Tech 2 with a 90 to maintain the 4.0. Tech 1 is going well. Work still sucks.

I bought a bike. My friend Johnathan just bought a 97 Sportster. So he sold me his old bike. I don't have it registered yet. I am going to a friends house tomorrow to work out some of the kinks.

That's about it. Not alot going on. I may have been wrong about my graduation date. I am going to Student Services to find out when it actually is. I'll keep ya posted.

After all the work and stress I went through in Clinic 7, I maintained my 4.0 grade point average! I almost loaded my Fruit of the Looms when I got my report card. I would also like to say that many good students who had a 4.0 didn't do as well. There were students who worked just as hard and fell below that mark. If you ever come to this school, remember to concentrate on your projects and don't worry so much about the tests. I only had an 82 average on my tests but aced the projects,attendance, and professionalism sections, which brought my grade up to a 96 average! I was worried it was going to be much lower but IT WASN'T!

Now I am in my all Harley classes. Yea! No more fuckin' import bikes. We received the first '07 96 inch Harley last week. I haven't had a chance to work on it but I have checked it out. We never get to test ride bikes which is too bad. I have heard that these engines don't have the balls that many think that they should. I would like to find out myself.

Clinic 7 is over. I somehow managed to get all of my projects done. I think I finished with an above 90 average. I didn't have time to calculate my score. I worked on my last project 'till 11:55! It was over and I was just starting to decompress when...

Some pigfucker broke into Beth's car again. Stole the SECOND Sirius satellite radio. Put out the accent window in the rear passenger side door. Which is the most expensive window to replace. I think I know who did it but I have not one shred of proof. I hate this fucking town. I would like to have my Harley out here but I am afraid someone would steal it. I have to admit, I feel pretty damn defeated. Between the stress of school and work and the last few weeks of bad news and disappointments, i feel fairly low.

Tomorrow is a new day. I start my Harley only classes tomorrow. THANK GOD! I couldn't take one more damn import project. I all of my basic training, I touched TWO Harleys. One we didn't even start, we just did a safety inspection. Tore down two Harley engines and that's it. I thought that was complete bullshit. But no more. Hallelujah!

I am sorry it's taken so long to update but I have been busy. For one thing, I got sucked in by MySpace. Damned thing. If you want to find my page It's under deeznuts@bblafreak.com. I like it. I find some people that I wouldn't have ordinarily have found. But it is kinda for the sheeple. Oh well.

Speaking of being busy, this next week is gonna kick my ass. I have to finish 14 projects in one week for school, work all week, and then go back to school to do 10 Harley PHD projects before Friday also. If no one hears from me, Don't sweat it. I have my head in a hitch or a motorcycle.

Merry Freakmas to all who all who missed it. It went well but it isn't the same as when I am home. I miss all of you back in Maine. I will be home as soon as I can.

So we finally order Internet and cable yesterday. Beth calls and tells me we have internet today. I get home and there is no cable T.V. I call Cox and say"I have no T.V.". They say" It should be on by 7:00 tonight". I get home from work and the T.V. still isn't on. I call cox back and say again"I have no T.V.". They say "We will get someone out there as soon as we can". I ask"When is that?" They say"Monday between 5 and 7". Pigfuckers are gonna make me wait until Monday! It's fucking Thursday and I have to wait until Monday! I am gonna have to leave work early. It just wouldn't be right if any of this shit went easy for me. I can't believe they are gonna make me wait through the weekend for my cable.Fuckers!

Well, If I can't watch Adult Swim, I guess I can check out internet porn. Bye!

We have the net at home now! Now you all will have a reason to check this site more often. I can go anywhere on the net I want without answering to anyone! Happy, happy day! I will leave a longer entry when I get home from work!

Yes, friends. I have managed another 98 average in one of my clinics, Tune-ups and chassis service. I have kicked ass and taken names once again. 2 more clinics and I am onto Harley late model. V-rods, sportys, and the twin-cams. Sadly I still have 10 more months until I can leave this hole.

I went to Vegas! Beth and I went out and saw Ryan and his new girlfriend, Jamie.(I hope I spelled that right.) Had a blast. Saw alot of cool shit. Did shots in the Harley-Davidson Cafe with bikes floating over our heads on a big chain and pulley system. Went to the House of Blues and got a coffee mug with Jake and Elwood on it. Checked out the Star Trek Experience. Got fucked up and ate too much. All in all, a good time was had by me.

Ryan gave me a computer. Well, I should say, a CPU. Now we need a keyboard, a mouse, and a monitor. After that Beth and I will get Internet at the apartment and we can all stay in better touch. But if you have any of what we need and can it get to us, Please Do!

I have finished my Machine Shop clinic. I have now bored cylinders on two different machines, Re-cut valve seats, Changed out both Press-fit and shrink fit valve guides, brokedown and rebuilt Harley and import multi-piece crankshafts, and install Helicoil thread repair. If you don't have a clue what any of that means and want to know, ask me next time I see you. I'll tell ya.

Anyway, I finished with a 98 this time. I didn't know how well I was going to do this time. I kept picking machines that didn't work right and projects that were all fucked up. If there was a tool that was not working right, I picked it. I got frustrated and my attitude went to shit for a day or two. Then I got the lowest test score so far on the second test. A 70. That really pissed me off. I talked to my teachers about it and they stepped right up. So I busted ass and caught up. Aced my Perfomance Week and my final test. I am not sure what I am doing tomorrow at school. I know what room to be in so I will let you know when I know.

Not alot of reaction to the album yet. I realize it's not my best work but it was the only time I have performed solo. I know Highway to Hell got a little painful in places but I had a blast doing it. If you listen to the beginning you hear I actually got the notes right on the tub. I was a little drunk that night too. I give it a 7 overall. Then again, I am a little biased.

Finally, presenting the live recording of B.B.'s "Buy The Ticket, Take The Ride Tour" at the late, great Ale House on 8/5/05. Crank up your speakers bitches, cuz the sound level's pretty low but the performance is pretty high! *cough*

(Press play, or right-click for track download options. Requires Flash. You can also download MP3's of the entire album.)




For Adults Only! Kids shouldn't download this album for any reason If you want to grow up normal. This album will damage your young, fretile, and curious mind. You will hear profanity and blasphemy and political dissent and songs about things no one should ever do if you want to grow up republican or democrat and be a leader in the buisness field or even worse, a cop ya smarmy little shit.

Love and kisses, B.B.

look for liner notes soon including giving Luke Cunningham proper credit for writing the bulk of some of the original material. We miss you, Luke. Come home soon.

Things are starting to get in order here in Freakland. I go to school, I come home, watch T.V., and go to bed. Beth works and comes home. A little monotony feels good after the last few months of craziness. We visit with friends quite often and entertain so its not like we don't have a social life. However, we end up home together alot at night and it's been kinda nice. We need to rest up for the trip back home.

I have honed a few cylinders now. I was doing pretty good on the first two but fucked up the third one big time. I am going to go back and do it alone this time and hopefully I will do better with less distraction. I aced my written test. I got the precision measurement project done. I am plodding along in school. Went and checked out the HD Early Model classroom. It was heavenly. There are some nice bikes to be worked on. There is a 1917 single cylinder on display. I think I am gonna like that class.

Thanks to everyone who left replies to the last entry. Especially my sister who didn't tell me what my new Grandniece's name is. Don't sweat it, I am going to call Dajaih and talk to her about it. What I want to know is why the hell didn't anyone call me and let me know? Congrats Daj!

What the hell happened to the summer? It flew past me. It doesn't seem like I have been here as long as I have. Weren't Beth and I just stayin at the damn Motel 6? Didn't we just leave Maine? How the hell is it October already? It still feels like summer in Phoenix. It's damn hot here today. I have heard it has already dipped down below freezing in Maine. I feel for ya. But I am glad I get to sit out a Maine Winter here in the south.

I have finisher another Clinic. I finished with yet another 97. So I am maintaining my 4.0 average quite well. Now I have a good understanding of how the electric systems work, I look at a wiring diagram and it makes sense to me now. I know about The three major systems and have a small clue how it all works together. Will miracles ever cease?

Beth is doing good. She hasn't killed me yet. That is a good thing. Go to her MySpace page and see a picture of us with Lisa Lamanelli.

I would post it here but my I.T. guy Ryan is a lazy fuck. I should have an album up for all my fans to download but NOOOOOOO! I should have some pictures up and maybe a forum or something but That isn't happening too quick now is it boys and girls? I guess thats what happens when you don't pay your I.T. guy and live 3/4 of the U.S. away. Fuckin lazy geeks! You let them move in with mountain hippies and nothing gets done.

People, please, start leaving comments. Even if it has nothing to do with my enrty. I just want to hear from my friends. I am homesick as hell. Tell me about your asshole boss, your loving family, Your loving boss or asshole family I don't care. Let me know You still love me!

I apologize for not updating sooner but I have been busy and in pain. I have a kidney stone. Big 'ol sumbitch too. It is 5 millimeters wide. I am not looking forward to pissing this thing out at all. But it has been over 2 weekes since it first made it's painful presence known. I have been drinking alot of water and staying active but it still hasn't come out. It's for shit.

I have finished two more classes since last I posted and I am happy to say that I have managed to maintain my 4.0 average. Kickin' ass and takin' names. Only 340 days until graduation! I am in electical systems now. got a hell of a deal on a good mutimeter at Sears. I feel I am doing okay so far. It is fairly easy when there is Someone right there to show you.

The weather is starting to cool down. We have only been down around 100 degrees. It is getting fairly cool at night. If I had a bike I would have to wear something warm.

Speaking of which, I f you know someone who needs a decent 4WD pick-up truck for the winter, I have one in Portland that I need to sell. If I can get that sold I can buy a bike and have my own wheels out here. I that would be so nice.

Speaking of nice, Beth has scored us a nice box spring and mattress. They around 20 inches tall just sittiing on the floor. Very comfy. It is hard to get out of it in the morning. Kudos to Bethee! We are getting fairly comfortable now. We have met some nice people who have given us some nice stuff. If I can just get a better job things may be okay. Well, they are actually okay now, but there is some room for improvement.

Take it easy and I will post as soon as I can. I promise.

Hey Everyrone. I haven't had any time to update because so much is happening. I finished my first clinic and recieved a Professionalism Award. Now I know how to change a motorcycle tire. And other things. Now I am on Clinic 1. Measurements and Engines. Doing OK so far...

Beth and I had our car broken into a while ago. They put out her passenger side window and stole her Sirius sattelite radio and most of our CDs. The cops didn't even come to the house. They just took a statement over the phone. Phoenix is the car theft capital of the country. Car thieves and burglars should have thier dicks cut off(tits if its a girl...).

We did go see Lisa Lampanelli at the Tempe Improv. What a funny bitch. We didn't get close enough to have her shit on us but still a good show. By the way, the Improv has good burgers.

Other than that I am still workin at u-haul and livin' with Beth. I lost my Visa Check card. I have a redneck tan on my legs from wearing shorts at work. The Carl's Jr. Pastramiburger is really tasty. I love ya all and I will hopefully update quicker next time.
