. "D": Here's Your Shrine .

. The Logroll


Before I let you go to the AMASuperbike site, you need to get past this shrine.
Today's Lesson in Politics
 Okay kids, here's your lesson for today: If someone scratches your back, you scratch his or her back in return. Barter. Logroll. Quid pro quo. Mutual suck-up. In this case, I told Dean Adams of AMASuperbike.com that I would build a shrine to him if he put up a link to my site. The link went up, so now I owe him a shrine. (Note: Dean might've linked to me regardless of this shrine. I do not wish to suggest that Dean requires favors. In my case I made a promise...) Now go to AMASuperbike.com for your dose of moto news.

Maybe he looks like Oscar the Grouch I asked Dean a few questions about himself, few of which he answered. One of the questions I asked him was if he looked more like Steve Buscemi, Mel Gibson, or Meg Ryan. He did not answer, so we'll have to let that go for now.


Who is Dean Adams?
I haven't a clue. And since I don't have a clue, I will make things up until he corrects me...
UPDATE! Dean corrected me. See how far off I was.

Born: Yes.

Favorite Snack: Donuts.

Favorite Drink: Donuts.

Favorite Motorcycle: John Deere's EZ250. Available for only a year, this was John Deere's one and only foray into the motorcycling world. As the name suggests, this two-stroke powerhouse was incredibly e-z to ride. It also came standard with lawn mowing attachments.

Favorite Racer: Katja Poensgen. She doesn't smell the way the other riders do. Big points for that.

Biggest Inspiration: Luke and Bo Duke. They always outran Roscoe P. Coltrane in the General Lee, and they looked totally cool doing it.

Paraphrase on Career Choice: "I am a writer, not a journalist. Writers can be engaging dinner companions after a few beers. Journalists just pick at their food and argue about the correct spelling of words normal people never use."
